Akhyar tries to keep thinking positively. He continued to drive the car even though behind the horn sound continued to be heard. As the road widened, Akhyar pulled over. The car that had been in the back was passing by.
Seeing the car passing by, Akhyar breathed a sigh of relief.
“Are they in a hurry?” andina was also worried.
“Maybe. You're okay, ‘kan?”
Andina smiled as she nodded.
Akhyar returned to drive the car. There are some holes blocking. The visibility is quite short because the heavy rain makes Akhyar can not avoid all the holes. To minimize the shock, it further slows down the speed of the car.
Not long after, the exit from the alley they entered was already visible. The end of the alley looked very dark due to the broken street lights.
“What is it?” Akhyar stepped on the gas. He extended his neck to see a black figure in the middle of the road. From inside the car, it looks like a pile of black plastic.
Akhyar. He had to come down to get rid of the thing that was blocking the road. His clothes were instantly soaked as soon as he closed the car door. His forehead shriveled, as the closer he got, he looked at the one in front of him like a human.
The thing that Akhyar thought was a pile of plastic suddenly stood up. Turns out, it was human. He was clad in a black raincoat and lay down on the road hugging his knees so that from afar it looked like a pile of plastic.
Akhyar ran to the car. He opened the car door and said, “Go from here!”
Andina's heart was racing. He doesn't understand what's going on. He shook his head, seeing Akhyar face off against the man in black in front with a movement like a man about to fight.
Andina turned her head to the side when she heard the sound of a car window being knocked on. His eyes widened, seeing two men sticking their faces into the car. With a very fast movement, Andina locked all the doors of the car.
Andina's chest is up and down. Irregular breath. Amidst the heavy rain and cold air, sweat fell from his temple. He doesn't know what to do. The knock on the car window is getting rougher.
Andina looked at Akhyar. The man kept moving his hands at her. Amidst the sound of rain, he heard the sound of Akhyar.
“Go from here! Go!”
Andina didn't want to leave Akhyar. If he leaves, I don't know what will happen to that man.
In total there were four people who intercepted them. Two people knocked on the right window, one person on the left window, and one other person was fighting with Akhyar.
For a moment, Andina considered the steps she wanted to take. His eyes kept on Akhyar. While avoiding the opponent's attack and occasionally launching attacks, Akhyar did not stop asking to leave immediately.
With a heavy heart, Andina changed seats. He took the wheel, then stepped on the gas. Akhyar and the man who was fighting in front of him suddenly avoided seeing Andina would not hit the brakes again. Fortunately, Andina made a decision quickly. If he had thought longer, the three men who had been banging since then would have picked up a stone to break the car's glass.
The car drove through the alley. He did not know the way in front of him because he never passed there. No cars or motorcycles passed. In front of him right now was only an empty land filled with grass.
Andina turned right, looking for someone to ask for help. Fortunately, not for five minutes, he found a stall that was still open.
Andina jumped down from the car. He approached a couple who were guarding the shop.
“You bought what, Ma'am?” ask the wife.
“Please me, Mom. My husband in a crackle people.” Andina's voice was shaking. He was terrified plus his wet head.
“Pak, this Mbak for help.”
The husband who was busy enjoying a cigarette slowly stood up. “You ask for help what, Ma'am?”
“My husband got gang-raped. In the alley there. I'll pay you anything, sir. Please my husband.” Andina's tears fell. He was really worried about Akhyar's safety.
“Shortly, Mbak.” The husband called his son who looked the same age as Andina. They then went to call the people around.
The path that Andina left behind seemed deserted. He did not see the four men again.
Hurry Andina got out of the car along with the ten people who were with her. “Akyar!” call him.
There is no lawfulness. His voice was muffled by the rain that was still pouring down.
“Akhyar! Answer me!” yell Andina. Tight chest. Her tears were racing with the rain. His lips were trembling with cold.
The ten people who were with Andina were checking around. Someone suddenly shouted, “Here!”
Andina running. He immediately hugged the unconscious Akhyar by the roadside.
“Build, Yar. Don't make me panic!” andina said, patting Akhyar on the face.
Akhyar did not respond.
“We have to take Mbak's husband to the hospital,” said one of the residents who revealed under Akhyar's shirt. There's a stab wound there. The rain covered the blood so Andina did not see the wound.
Andina's head was heavy. As his hand touched the wound on Akhyar's abdomen, he fell. Everything was suddenly dark and the voices of the people around him were slowly being heard no more.
***
Andina felt her head throbbing. He refuses to wake up now. However, the incident that happened to him flashed through his mind. He and Akhyar were intercepted by four unidentified men. Akhyar restrained the four men so that he could escape. When he returned with help, Akhyar lay by the roadside in an unconscious condition.
Andina opened her eyes. He sat, staring around.
“Andina, are you awake?” Miss Rini approached Andina. “You're all right, honey?”
“Akyar where, Ma?” ask Andina.
“Mama call doctor, yes.” Bu Rini rubbed the top of his daughter's head.
“Dina just wants to know the condition Akhyar, Ma!” Andina's voice rose even though her body felt limp. Eyes glazed. “Where is Akhyar?”
“Akhyar is fine.”
“I'd like to see Akhyar, Ma.”
“Later Mama take you to meet Akhyar. Now, Mama call the doctor first.” Miss Rini pressed the button next to the bed. Impatiently, he went out to call the doctor.
Not long after, the doctor came with a nurse. Andina's body condition is checked, as well as the content. Everything's fine. No serious problem. Andina just needs a break now.
“Doctor, patient in room number three is experiencing shortness of breath.” A hospital staff member appeared at the door.
“Doctor Anto hasn't arrived?”
“Numbered, Doc.”
“I'm sorry, Mom. I'll do my best to save your daughter-in-law.”
A daughter-in-law? Andina's eyes were wide open. He lowered his leg to chase after the doctor who had just left his room.
“Where are you going, Din?”
“That shortness of breath is Akhyar right, Ma? Mama says she's fine!” Andina jumped down. His eyes were red, holding back tears. In his head came all the bad things. He would never forgive himself if something happened to Akhyar.
