In front of the house which is not too big, Irma is seen standing while her fingers are busy scrolling the cellphone screen. Turns out, he was waiting for his online motorcycle taxi order.
"Tell Daddy when you get there!" shouted Mr. Hartono who was suddenly in front of the terrace.
Irma who saw this spontaneously patted her forehead. Mr. Hartono doesn't usually act like that. In fact, when Irma used to go out at night, Mr. Hartono never worried about his daughter.
"Why is this dad?" asked Irma by forming a crease on her forehead.
Before Mr. Hartono had time to respond to his daughter's question, the online motorcycle taxi Irma ordered had arrived first. Irma immediately climbed into the motorcycle taxi, then waved to his father.
When the online motorcycle taxi was driving, it could be seen from a distance Nando and Kevin were also getting ready to follow the direction of the motorbike. Apparently, the two of them had been waiting near the alley of Irma's house since Irma was still in her house.
That morning, Nando and Kevin will carry out the bad plan that has been arranged in detail last night with Jessica. This time they wore black clothes, hats and masks. This is so that no one will recognize them later.
"Just find a road that is not crowded, sir," asked Irma, who had been busy looking at the road.
Online motorcycle taxi drivers around the village are still quite rare. Usually only one or two drivers pass through the village. Irma is also not used to using the services of such an online driver. In the past, when I often went to discotheques, Irma would be picked up by Jessica more often. Because Mr. Hartono never allowed Irma to use his motorbike to go to the discotheque.
After twenty minutes, Irma finally arrived at Himalaya Store. He immediately took off his headgear.
"35 thousand right, sir?" Irma asked as she reached into the bag containing her money and cell phone.
"Yes, Sis. As stated," the motorcycle taxi driver replied with a friendly smile.
Irma then gave 35 thousand to the motorcycle taxi. Then, he immediately stepped into the bookstore.
Himalaya Store is one of the most familiar bookstores in the city of Irma. It is quite far from his house. Had it not been the quieter route, he would have probably arrived in 45 minutes. In the shop, there are many kinds of books for sale. Starting from fiction books to Islamic non-fiction books. There also provides a variety of writing equipment. You could say the quality of the goods there is very good and guaranteed. It's not wrong if the shop is never empty of visitors.
While Irma chose the book inside, Nando and Kevin seemed to be still monitoring Irma's movements. They did not immediately harm Irma just like that. But waiting for a quiet time and place so that the action runs smoothly.

On the way to his friend's event, Mr. Hartono's feelings are still worried about Irma. For some reason his heart couldn't calm down. He felt something would happen to his daughter.
"Why don't you feel good, Dear," said Mrs. Laila, who apparently had the same feeling as Mr. Hartono.
Mr. Hartono looked at his wife for a moment.
"Me too," said Mr. Hartono who had returned to focus on driving the car.
In their hearts, the two of them continued to pray so that nothing would happen to their daughter. They tried to get rid of all their worries.
It had been almost half an hour Irma was picking books in the shop. Feeling a little tired, Irma rushed to the cashier to make payments. Turns out he also bought a lot of books.
Since her closeness to Islam, Irma spends more time studying about Islam. Either with his parents or with Syarifah. He liked the stories and new knowledge they conveyed. Therefore, Irma became more and more interested in studying Islam.
The books he bought this week were about Islamic civilization. Incidentally, some time ago, he had time to listen to stories of Islamic civilization in Europe, especially France from Syarifah. Although his desire to go to France was very low. However, he still wanted to study its history.
"Here, Ma'am," said Irma, who handed her some red bills.
After making the payment, Irma immediately left the shop. Unfortunately, he forgot not to order an online motorcycle taxi in advance. As a result, he had to walk first, away from the bookstore earlier.
Nando and Kevin, who had been on standby to monitor Irma, continued to follow Irma. However, they remained cautious and alert, so that Irma would not suspect anything.
It seemed that Irma had been busy walking until she came to a quiet alley. There he did not have access to an online motorcycle taxi. Nando and Kevin who realized this immediately launched the action.
The two of them immediately turned off the engine, then walked slowly following Irma. Within seconds, Kevin had covered Irma's mouth with a handkerchief that had been given something that instantly made Irma faint.
No less swiftly, Nando immediately took Irma's cell phone. Then, he turned off the cellphone, so that Irma's whereabouts could not be tracked. The two of them then immediately took Irma to the place that had been provided by Jessica.

That afternoon, Haris and his mother were seen pacing in front of the ICU room. Apparently, his father's condition was critical because he had not received a suitable blood donor. They were both very worried because there had been no progress since last night.
Since last night, Agus has also not returned home because he accompanied Haris to find a blood donor for his father. However, they have not managed to get it.
Agus even forgot not to tell his mother at home. He knew that his mother was really worried about him. Then, he then asked for permission to go home to Mrs. Sophia. In fact, he still couldn't bear to leave the two of them in the hospital.
"Thank you, yes, Son Agus for helping us," said Mrs. Sophia, whose eyes were puffy from crying all night.
"Yes, ma'am. If you need help immediately call Agus again, yes," said Agus politely.
Although Agus was never close to his parents, he was always polite to others. Sometimes he also feels jealous of Haris who has always been able to be close to his parents since childhood. Very different from him.
After saying goodbye to Mrs. Sophia and Haris, Agus then immediately walked towards the exit of the hospital.
On the way home, Agus accidentally found a woman who was being carried by two men on a motorbike. Agus was a little suspicious when he saw him, because it was clear there that the woman was unconscious.
Agus also slowed down his car, he tried to observe who the woman was. The woman's face seemed very familiar in Agus' eyes.
"Irma!" shouted Agus when he found out that the woman was Irma.
Agus, who suspected that Irma was being harmed by the two men, immediately accelerated his car again. He deliberately followed the direction of the motorbike in front of him.
However, unexpectedly, Nando and Kevin suspect Agus' car. Nando who was driving then increased the speed of his motorbike. As a result, there was a chase between them.
"Damn it! The gas ran out, Vin!" Nando cursed annoyed.
Instantly they both panicked. Agus's car also managed to approach them. Then, a great fight broke out between the three of them. This fight is certainly not a draw because Agus is alone against Nando and Kevin. However, Agus still dared himself.
Meanwhile, Irma, who had previously fainted, finally woke up. He was a little surprised when he found himself lying on the side of the road. Then, his eyes fell on the three men who were fighting.
Irma's eyes widened when she found Agus being beaten by two people who were very familiar to Irma. Spontaneously he threw the shoes he was wearing at Nando and Kevin. And exactly, the shoe landed on both cheeks. They groan in pain.
Realizing this, Irma immediately approached Agus. However, unexpectedly ... Kevin immediately pulled Irma's body and managed to strangle Irma's neck with his right arm.
Agus's emotions rose instantly. He couldn't bear to see Irma who rebelled in pain. With all his strength Agus launched a kick towards Nando. Irma is also seen trying to get Kevin's arm off his neck.
"God damn it!" Kevin screamed as Irma stomped his foot and bit his arm hard.
Kevin spontaneously removed his arm from Irma's neck. Irma's bite was so painful that she couldn't stand it.
Irma did not waste the opportunity, she also tried to help Agus to fight Nando.
"Ow!" Nando screamed in pain when Irma managed to land a punch with the shoe he had thrown.
"Still want to get hit again?!" Irma snapped furiously.
Nando and Kevin who were already in pain immediately left with a motorbike that ran out of gas.
Meanwhile, Agus was still surprised to see Irma's behavior.
"Pain, sir?" asked Irma who managed to break Agus's daydream.
The corners of Agus' lips were slightly injured and bleeding from the punches from Nando and Kevin. His stomach was hit several times.
"Just a small wound," said Agus, holding the corner of his lips.

After yesterday's incident, Fajar's body still feels very sick. To just stand up he is not strong. He also decided to ask his friend for help so that he could replace himself in filling out the sharing that afternoon.
Fajar immediately sent a message to his friend. Not even a minute later, suddenly there was a noise in front of the apartment.
"What's up ahead?" he muttered as he tried to stand up and walked to the front door.
He didn't come out of the apartment right away, but peeked out the window. It turned out that there were four men who were destroying several facilities in front of Fajar's rented house. In fact, Fajar did not recognize who they were.
"I can not stay silent!" cried Dawn.

Last night, Agus' Dad came home from Jakarta. He brought some gifts for his wife and children. However, it was a pity that Agus did not come home that night.
Both people knew that Agus was worried about his son's condition. Because, the phone number can not be reached at all. Last time, Agus's mother saw Agus in a hurry to get the car keys last night. Then, when he was about to ask, Agus had already left quickly with his car.
Their minds were filled with fear. Agus's mother also felt that something had happened to her son in France--Dawn--.
It had been several days that the two of them had not exchanged news with Fajar. So, they don't know for sure if their child is okay or not.
"Mama is worried about Fajar too, Dad."
His father Agus breathed for a moment. He also tried to contact Fajar and Agus alternately. However, the result was nil. Neither of them received a call from his father.
To be continued ....
