57. Secrets of Gods


"Boss, aren't you coming again today?" The man guarding Sandra in the old barn asked over the phone.


"I'm busy. If he doesn't want to open his mouth, then let it go! I don't want to waste my time taking care of it!" ketus Arjuna's.


"He's on hunger strike, boss!" report the man again.


"Don't be fooled by the action. Let him do what he wants to do. It was her own choice!" arjuna's voice was rising.


"Good, Boss." The guard relented and the phone connection was cut off.


"Take it easy!" Arjuna was still upset and his mood was disturbed. He took a coat and stood up.


"After your work is done, you can go home!" said Arjuna.


"Ready, Boss!" luna Sahut. The clock on the wall. "It's still four in the afternoon. Where's the boss going this afternoon?" mumbling wonder.


But then the girl shook her head. Since Gayatri's disappearance, Arjuna has become agitated and increasingly restless over time.


The boss was very fierce, cold, gluttonous and rough and wanted to win by himself. But now it's different. "The disappearance of Ms. Aya, brought about a major change in Arjuna's boss." Luna concluded.

Arjuna drives with a branched mind. He did not notice where the car was headed. A few hours later the man regained consciousness, after the car had completely stopped.


"Why did I get to the cemetery?" thought astonishment. He wanted to pull the car back to get out of there, when he realized that God was buried in the cemetery.


"Did you miss me?" he nodded and took a rough breath. The car is turned off and Arjuna gets down from there.


"I don't bring flowers for you" he said, as if God were walking beside him.


Cleaned the tomb whose grass has not grown perfectly. "I can't bring Aya here. He's been kidnapped five months ago" she said.


"I hope I can still find him safely" he added. This time his voice started to fade.


"I promise I'll be nice to her, if I can find her. You must believe my promise. You know very well that I always keep my word to you, don't you," he said again.


"I'm sorry, God. Can't take good care of your beloved woman. You can blame me later, if not happy. Now, please take care of him as long as I don't find him. Please ...."


The sky was already in the evening, when Arjuna stood from the side of the tomb of God. His feet were numb because it had been an hour squatting there. However, his heart felt a little relieved after venting in front of the tomb of God.


His footsteps were shaken as he walked towards the car.


"Wait!" Someone called Arjuna.


The young man turned around and looked to the left. Then pointed at himself. "Mother called me?" ask Arjuna.


The man nodded, confirming. "What is your relationship with the man in the tomb?" ask the man to know. It was obvious that he was very curious.


Arjuna was eager to act as usual. However, given Aya, she tried to be more polite. "I'm his twin brother!" answer Arjuna honestly. He hoped, with this talk, that Aya's location could find a bright spot.


"really?" the man was surprised and a little in disbelief.


Arjuna did not care and turned around. "She asked, I answered. Excuse me!" Arjuna continued his halted steps.


"No. Waitaminute! There's something I want to tell you!" said the gray-haired man while trailing Arjuna from behind.


"Does God have unpaid debts?" Arjuna took out his card. Come to my office tomorrow and I'll pay you all the debts!" answer Arjuna firmly.


"What?" The old man was again surprised by Arjuna's response.


"No, it's not that. I just want to give up what Arjuna once left me, to save," said the man honestly.


"I think it's an important thing that he might want to hide so that no one knows." The man nodded with great certainty.


Arjuna nodded and thought fast. It is likely that the old man's opinion was also correct. How important is the thing that the gods keep, so that an Arjuna also cannot see it?" he thought with curiosity.


"How can I get it?" ask Arjuna. Do you want proof of us? Do you need my father and mother to prove that I am his twin brother?" ask Arjuna.


"No need!" The man wiggled his hand the sign it was not necessary.


"Just looking at your face, I already feel that you are a family of Gods. What else I saw was you squatting praying for a very long time there," said the person.


Arjuna felt a little embarrassed and shunned. He instead prayed at the tomb, but instead ventured to release all the burdens of his heart in front of the tomb of God.


"Now it's almost night. Tomorrow I'll take the item to your office only" the man said after seeing the situation.


"Is your home far away? I can pick him up now" Arjuna bargained. He was very curious. How can we wait until tomorrow?


"If you don't mind or bother, it's okay now. Come on!" The old man walked in front and headed for his car.


"I'll follow father's car," Arjuna broke up quickly.


"Yes, it's better that way." The man nodded and got into his own car. "However, we will stop by the mosque, to pray magrib first."


The man told me his plan. Arjuna agreed. Just waiting for people to pray, nothing compared to his curiosity about the secrets of the Gods.


"What the hell is God keeping secret?" Arjuna was very curious and began to feel annoyed at the God who did not believe him to keep such a possibly enormous secret.


"Are you married?" accuse Arjuna of driving.


"Or do you have an illegitimate child?" guess again curiously. But then he shook his own head, rejecting such conjecture.


"You're too good to be a Don Juan!" Arjuna chuckled amusedly.


The car in front of him entered one simple residential complex. However, it seemed like the complex had stood for quite a long time. The houses are already very different from the uniform complex house All the houses there are different shapes and various. Some even look very old because they have never been repainted.


The car stopped in front of a simple two-story house with white paint a combination of ash and yellow. The greenness of the mango tree in front of the house, gives the impression of cool and calm overall.


"Let's go in!" take the man after Arjuna got out of the car and stood in front of the wide-open gate.


The young man nodded and walked beside the old man's car parked in the carport.


"Assalamu'alaikum" said the man at the door.


"Wa'alaikum salam," said the voice of the woman from within.


The sound of a lock playing and the door opening. "Mr is home? Just make a pilgrimage for a long time," a voice rebuked inside.


"Hush. I brought a guest," he reprimanded the woman inside. Arjuna had not seen who the woman behind the door was.


The woman stuck her head out to look at the person behind the old man's back.


"God!" pekik surprised.


Arjuna could remember how the middle-aged woman glared at once scared when she saw him standing behind the man.


"He's not a god but his twin brother!" The man straightened.


"Let's go in!" take it politely.


Arjuna nodded and followed the man inside the house.
