Candra smiled obliquely at the words of Gilang. He knows this is just Gilang's wits to protect Aji and Cilla. "She thinks I'm a kid who can be fooled just like that!" Candra said in her own heart mocking Gilang's acting behavior.
"No-no. I still want them to be prisoners. I don't just believe in you Gilang. Moreover, yesterday you were furious when you found out that I was the one who kidnapped them!" Candra nodded at Gilang's request.
"I want our business to be done first" Candra continued.
"But..."
"No buts!" the word Candra cuts off the unfinished word Gilang.
Gilang could only let out a long sigh and tried to restrain himself from being ignited by emotions. He does not want to make Candra angry and have an impact on Aji and Cilla who are now in the hands of his men.
"Let's go back to that house. The company files I've prepared. You just sign. After that, we'll go to America and get married there!"
Candra words that sound more to a command can only be obeyed by Gilang. But this is just to let her off guard and not hurt Aji and Cilla. He should be able to make Candra believe him.
"Well," replied Gilang short, then followed Candra's steps towards the house earlier. The place Aji and Cilla were arrested and had escaped earlier. But now they come back so easily.
Aji held her mother's hand. He didn't want to go back to that house. He was afraid that he would not be able to escape again. "Ma. Let's just run yuk!" Take aji to her mom, Cilla.
"How is it, honey? We can't just run away right now" Cilla whispered to Aji.
"And papa said there would be help coming. But how come papa gives up gini?" said Aji did not understand the code given by his father earlier.
"Eitherway. Mom doesn't know what she's saying. We need to be able to save ourselves right now" Cilla said, encouraging her son Aji.
"We must be able to fight these two people who are accompanying us. If the boss leaves it in your papa's care. It's also if he really wants to save us," Cilla said again giving an explanation to Aji.
"Ok Ma's. Aji will do something. But Mama's coming along so be compact!" Aji gave the code to his mother.
Cilla blinked one eye to agree to his son's invitation. He knows what to do after this.
When they were all in front of the house earlier, Candra entered first followed by Gilang. Aji and Cilla who were behind him had not had time to enter, followed by the two bodyguards who found them both. Aji immediately turned around and ran out, as did Cilla. He followed what his son did.
The two bodyguards immediately chased after the two. "Boss. They're escaping!" Report one of them by shouting for Candra to hear it. The two of them immediately chased Aji and Cilla without waiting for a response from Candra. A chase occurs in an alley out to the highway. This time Aji and Cilla were no longer on the wrong path. But their strength was indeed not comparable to those two criminals. Both could soon be arrested again. But Aji attacked one of the bodyguards and bit his hand. While Cilla kicked the other one right in the sensitive part.
"Ouch!" shouted one of them who was bitten by Aji.
"Ah, fuck girl!" The other Maki with a face grimaced in pain. He held his vitals that felt very painful while bending over.
Aji runs back, followed by Cilla. "Come on Ma, hurry!" yelling Aji invites her mother to run faster.
"Mommy's feet are sick dear," replied Cilla grimacing with pain.
"You stop or I'll shoot from here!" Candra was already behind them at a distance of less than five meters.
Cilla glared in shock and stopped her steps. And so is Aji. They both don't want to die for nothing at the hands of criminals like Candra. The two of them turned to look at the truth Candra said about her shooting threat.
From the back, following the two men who were smiling slanted to see Aji and Cilla quiet in place.
"Don't Candra!" Gilang said forbid it. He was still running behind the two Candra men and kept running until it was in front of Candra, preventing him from being determined. Being a shield for Aji and Cilla.
"You move!" Candra's orders in a loud voice. It seems like he's already very angry.
"I don't want you to be a murderer. Especially the children and women. There is nothing to be proud of because without being killed, they are already weak" Gilang said trying to make Candra aware and undo her intentions.
"But they are my biggest obstacle!" Candra refuted Gilang's words.
"Let them go" Gilang said.
"No! They must be eliminated!" Candra was parsimonious in her decision.
"This is Indonesia not America!" Gilang was getting impatient.
"Why Indonesia? I'm also an Indonesian" replied Candra, not understanding.
"Just don't shoot!" Gilang shakes his head to make Candra understand.
"Remember your papa, remember your mama too" said Gilang resuscitated Candra.
"Oh, fuck them both. I'm like this because they didn't care about me as a child. They're selfish and don't understand what I want."
Candra starts to darken eyes. He said in a voice that shook with anger, recalling all the events of his childhood.
The divorce of his parents, and the separation from his move to America, created a great distance between them all.
"I don't like it! I don't want that selfish woman. He'll also take you from me!" Candra said by pointing at Cilla with her gun. The next second, Candra pulled the trigger on her hand. He couldn't think anymore, then...
Dor's!
Dor's!
I heard two gunshots, but from different places. Two people fell in blood. Gilang is hit by a Candra shot that leads to Cilla, while the other one turns out to be Candra. He was hit by a police shot that just came.
Two of Candra's men have been easily incapacitated by the police team. While Candra groaned in pain because her leg was shot by the police commander.
"Father!" shouted Aji, then ran towards Gilang, so aware that his papa fell hit by a shot. Cilla also ran in the same direction as Aji.
"Papa... Papa's...." Aji cried to see her papa lying with blood continuously flowing in her stomach.
..."Ambulance, get to Pomegranate's housing in XXX area!" The police commander immediately called an ambulance for the victims....
"Ma.. Papa Ma..." Aji kept crying next to her papa. Cilla hugged her son with tears as well. He did not expect Gilang to be that determined, making himself a shield for Candra's shot directed towards him.
