The Former
A SURPRISE

Rafael's black luxury car stops right in front of a house. Rafael stared ahead at the large and magnificent house that looked foreign to him. The house is not far from his office which is about thirty minutes from the LJ Group building.

"Are you sure this is the address, Raf?" Ask aunt Yuni.

Aunt Yuni looked doubtful as she saw the house in a dark and desolate state. No one was seen around the house.

"Yes aunt, the address of this house is in accordance with the address that Yuda sent earlier" Sahut Rafael.

"really! But how lonely is it?" Aunt Yuni muttered.

"Are you sure Judah sent the correct address?" Miss Linda came to say.

"I'm sure Mbak, Rafael himself read the address that Yuda sent earlier" replied Aunt Yuni.

"If this address is correct, why doesn't Yuda come out and welcome us here" protested Ms. Linda.

"Try to contact Yuda and make sure that this address is correct. Don't-don't your son is bullying us" he continued.

Aunt Yuni followed Linda's advice and contacted her son directly, but Judah did not answer her call. Not wanting to give up so easily, Aunt Yuni again tried to contact Yuda but unfortunately until the third call Judah did not answer the call.

"There's no answer?" Ask Linda ma'am.

Aunt Yuni shook her head.

"Where is Raf? Yuda did not answer the aunt's call" Aunt Yuni's question began to get agitated.

The three looked at each other, they began to doubt that Judah and Nindy were in the house.

"We tried to get down aunty first, maybe they're inside" said Rafael.

Rafael opens his self belt and intends to exit.

"Wait a minute Rafa" Prevent Aunt Yuni.

"What if this is a trap".

Rafael and Miss Linda look at Aunt Yuni at the same time.

"What auntie mean?" Ask Rafael.

"You can't go out before we can make sure this place is safe. What if all this is someone's trap for you" said Aunt Yuni.

"No way aunty" said Rafael.

"Who would want to frame me?".

"Tante doesn't have to worry, because I'm not going in that house alone. They'll come with me" Rafael pointed at the cars that followed them.

It turns out Rafael has asked Ardi to prepare his men to come with him. Rafael just wants to be on guard if something unexpected happens.

"Mama and aunt wait here first, let Rafa and Ardi check into the house" Rafael said.

"Are you sure, baby?" Ask Linda ma'am.

"Yes ma, Rafa sure" said.

Rafael opened his car door and went straight out. Meanwhile Ardi and his men were waiting for Rafael outside.

"wait. Aunty's coming, Rafael" said Aunt Yuni.

"Don't be crazy you, what if there's danger in there" Sergeah bu Linda on Aunt Yuni.

"Keep willing to stay here and let our son into the house himself?" Reply aunt Yuni.

Ms. Linda was shocked when she heard Aunt Yuni's reply.

"It's not like that, but!" Linda's words paused.

"If you want to be here, please. But don't stop me from coming along with my son" said Aunt Yuni loudly then directly opened the car door and rushed out.

"My son?" Mumbled Linda's mom.

"Hey, Rafael is my son not your son" Shouted Linda from inside the car.

"Starting tonight, Rafael became my son" Sahut aunt Yuni did not want to lose.

Ms. Linda looks upset, she does not like if her son has another mother besides her.

"Just the woman confessed to Rafael as her son. I can't let it go" Madam Linda, who didn't accept the clamps that Aunt Yuni said to her son, finally decided to come out as well.

Rafael approached his biological mother and stepmother who came out of the car.

"Why did mom and auntie get out of the car? I'm going to have a hard time telling you to wait for me in the car" Rafael said.

"Tante will come with you Rafa" said Aunt Yuni.

"Mama too" said Ms. Linda.

"Mama too" Linda said.

"Ta but,,,,!" Rafael's words were interrupted.

"We'll stay, Rafael" said Linda and Aunt Yuni.

Rafael sighed when he heard the wishes of the two middle-aged women.

"Alright, but I ask mama and aunty not to do anything without my permission and I ask that you stay behind me" Rafael said.

Madam Linda and Aunt Yuni looked at each other and then both nodded simultaneously.

"alright. Let's go in" Rafael said.

Ardi and his men immediately make a line of defense, they form a circle with Rafael's position with his mothers in the circle. This was done to make it easier for them to protect Rafael and his two mothers from danger.

Ardi took the front position with three of his men. He served as a road opener to make it easier for Rafael to enter as well as a shield if danger attacks his family.

Krekk,, uh,,,

Slowly the door began to open, and their arrival was immediately greeted with a dark room. Not a single speck of light emerged from the room, everything seemed pitch-black and silent without sound.

Ardi and his men took out a flashlight from their pockets and directly turned it on. Instantly the room became bright with the help of the flashlight.

"Is there someone inside?" Ardi shouted in a loud enough voice.

Silent

Not a single voice could be heard answering Ardi's call. Ardi twisted his body looking at Rafael, he wanted to see the reaction of his boss.

Rafael stepped closer to Ardi.

"It seems like no one in this house sir" Ardi said.

Rafael patted Ardi on the shoulder and said:

"Tell them to split up and find my wife to see you" he said firmly.

Ardi could feel a different aura from Rafael's words and without the slightest rebuttal he immediately gave orders to his men to spread out throughout the room in the house.

"Mama and aunt wait here, I'll check inside" Rafael said.

"But raf!" Aunt Yuni's words paused.

"Auntie please. This time, please follow my orders".

Rafael looked at his mother and stepmother for a moment, then he turned his body and immediately stepped down the house.

Rafael directs the flashlight in his hand to several corners of the room, the goal is to find a switch to turn on the lamp so that he can see the entire room in the house. After a long walk Rafael finally found a switch and he immediately tried to turn it on. But unfortunately, it turned out that the switch was damaged so that the lamp could not turn on as he expected.

"Damn!" And Rafael was upset.

"Shit!"

The clontang!!!!

Rafael kicked a drink can to bounce away, he began to look emotional because he felt if he was being fooled. Raphael continued to curse himself who immediately believed in Judah's words before confirming for himself the truth.

"Hey! Who lo? Show me your form" cried Rafael full of emotion.

"If you do not want to show your form, then the cave will destroy this house" threatened Rafael.

Silent

No one has yet said.

"So you want to play with the cave? Yep! Ok".

Raphael took an empty drink can and threw it in a mirror and

Prang,,,,, prangs,,,,

The mirror broke and shattered until fragments scattered on the floor. Everyone was shocked to hear the mirror.

Clique

The lights suddenly lit up along with the appearance of someone from the end of the stairs.

"Are you looking for me, baby?"

Deg

Rafael was glued to the spot when he heard a familiar voice in his ear, he immediately twisted his body quickly to see the appearance of the owner of the voice. And at once Rafael gaped at the spot as he looked at a beautiful and graceful woman who was smiling at him.
