The Blink is Dusk.
Caught Citizens
A WEEK PASSED.
*
Midnight: Two figures approach Riha's rented door. Their faces were covered in black cloth masks. Both carry a crowbar and other tools. Look to the right and to the left. Silent and desolate state. The two looked and checked the location of Riha's rented door hinges.
"We turn off the lights first." Tell one. The other friend nodded and looked up. Suddenly;
"Krrt." Uncle Yuro's door opens. The two figures ran to the side of Aram's contract. From there they both peeked. Looks like Uncle Yuro came out while having a gasp. He was wearing a sarong and a shirt in white. He's overheated, like. See the bright and starry night sky.
"It's raining, it's hot." Said Uncle Yuro Lirih.
"Yuro." Call a strange voice out of nowhere.
"Yuroooo." Calling out a soft voice sounded again and it sounded clear from his ears. He looked to the left and right, a desolate state. Uncle Yuro's roman fur stood upright.
"No one's." Said Uncle Yuro. A while later he hurriedly entered back, and locked the door from the inside. The roman fur continued upright and his chest pounded heavily.
"Spirit sounds, maybe." Think Uncle Yuro.

Tonight it's our duty to observe around the contract. Some time the two citizens on guard duty arrived at their place of duty. Sitting facing a small hole from the barrier between housing and construction.
"Sweet, there's a lot of mosquitoes in here." Said a resident who was lurking around the contract.
"Eat him using sovel, let the mosquitoes far away." Friend said.
"Forgot earlier. If there's stock of my love." Friend says.
"Yes, marshy, how to keep the complex, sovel just not ready." Said his friend, while thrusting a sesacet sovel anti-mosquito. His friend rubs on the open skin. Suddenly the mobile phone of the person who gave the sovel rang. He immediately picked up a phone call.
"Yes, Mr. RT. Ready." The answer.
"Don't let your guard down, don't hold the phone." Said Mr. RT.
"Ready Mr RT." Answer again. Both of them then prepared and did not play the phone. Then they opened a small hole in the wall next to the rented building. From the hole both observe the entire courtyard and the contract.
"Ehh, it's Yuro out." Say one of them while rubbing the sovel.
"Why also go out the nights she's been." Tell one. They smiled and wanted to hide it.
"Yuro."
"Yuroooo." Call one of them again, a few times. Uncle Yuro heard the sound of that slow call. He looked to the left and to the right. But didn't see anyone. Make the roman fur stand up, and quickly enter. The two citizens peering over the wall giggled. They knew that Uncle Yuro was scared.
...*****...
Meanwhile, at a guard post there were dozens of residents staying up. They numbered ten people, and would go around the complex alternately. Someone plays cards, and plays chess. Their game is just entertainment. Mr. RT and Mr. Kamtibmas come to control.
"Secret Mr RT." Answer a citizen.
"I say hello to Mr. RT. Take a short break, a lot of work at the office today." Said Mr. Kamtibmas. In addition to saying goodbye to Mr. RT, he also paid with the citizens. A few moments later, Mr. RT also returned home. The people continue their game. The night is getting late, and it's getting colder.
...*****...
Meanwhile, two black masked figures hiding behind the rented wall that Aram occupied were relieved when Uncle Yuro re-entered the contract. A while later the two returned to the front of the rented door that Riha occupied. They then tried to turn off the lights in front of the rented door.
"You're riding on my shoulders." Friend says.
"All right." His friend answered, and his friend, who suggested, sat against the wall. His friend climbed onto his shoulder and he slowly stood up, while his friend continued to hold on to the rented wall.
"A little more." Said his friend on the shoulder. The light bulb went out, but it was not removed from its axis. After descending, they began to approach the rented door. Started trying to pry the door hinges. A few moments later, their efforts began to max out. The door hinges are ready to be unloaded.
"Obeng. screwdriver, to open the bolts." The other said, he put his hand to the side. His friend was busy peering out from behind the door. He observed the top of the door hinge. When his hand he thrust without seeing.an object is in his hand. He then tried to pry out the door hinges.
"Well, I asked for a screwdriver, why do you love scissors. You think we're cutting hair." His friend was upset.
"We don't bring scissors." Answer friends.
"This, what." Ask her friend while showing the scissors in hand. His friend was also shocked and felt strange.
"Already, don't discuss. The screwdriver was here." Answer his friend again. They searched but did not find.
"This is the screwdriver." Said a voice from behind. The one looking for the screwdriver turned his head and took the screwdriver that was proffered by the person from behind. The masked man started to open the hinge bolt again. But, suddenly both of them realized that they were just the two. After looking at each other, they looked back along with thumping chest. There seemed to be fourteen people standing elongatedly surrounding the two. They looked very sad and looked at the two. Can't escape anymore.
"Eh, Mr. RT." Tell them both and stop unpacking the door. Then the two turned around fixing the rented door that Riha occupied.
"Open your masks." Said Mr. Kamtibmas. After opening everything was shocked, it turned out that both of them were Jum and Lam.
Jum and Lam, then hide the mask behind their clothes. Then fix the door hinge. Both of them were already frightened, it looked as if the surrounding citizens had already gone up in blood. They began to flinch and bash at each other's palms. Both are afraid of the vigilante.
"The two of you turned out, unexpectedly." Said the husband of the contract owner's mother. The villagers wake Uncle Yuro, Uncle Yugus, and Grandma and Aram. The rented owner's mother also came and scolded Jum and Lam.
"The two of you seem to have been stealing all along. Contract always, and lazy work because of playing games. Now you feel the consequences. Hearts ask for hearts." Said the owner of the contract. Grandma and Aram just silently looked at the two. His second hand was handcuffed by Mr. Kamtibmas.
"Already, come to the office. You must account for your actions." Said Mr. Kamtibmas. Some time when the police car arrived, Jum and Lam were transported to Mapolsek Alang-Alang Lebar, Palembang City.
After their departure, residents helped to repair the rented door hinges that Riha occupied.
"Yes, God. Keep me from such human evils." Said Riha many times. Riha's drowsiness becomes lost, changing fear and worry.
"God, there are no more such people around us." Said the owner of the contract. People were telling each other about the incident. Some of them have posted on their facebook and twitter accounts about the incident. Uncle Yugus and Uncle Yuro listen to the story.
"Don't be afraid of Riha, if there's anything, call us right away or shout loudly." Grandma Said. Riha said, long time they continue to talk.
"Once steal in Grandma's place, then steal Aram's chicken, after that want to steal in Riha's place. Means after that, our place is also his turn." Said Aunt Walah. Everyone was breeding, by two o'clock in the morning they went back in and went to sleep.

Yuzaka's father arrives at his house. Several times he honked. Seemed Hapa came walking while pressing the phone. His father seemed annoyed at the behavior of his youngest son.
"Let go first what, the phone." Yuzaka's father's nag is heard.
"Next week we should be in Kalimantan, ma'am. Finish all the school business Hapa and Yuzaka." Said Yuzaka's Father. Yuzaka's mother said she put white rice in the dish and Yuzaka's father ate it voraciously. At night, Yuzaka, Hapa and Gapa are told. Yuzaka has been daydreaming ever since.
"Yuzaka, what are you thinking." Ask Yuzaka's mother. He's mopping the patio floor. Yuzaka replied it was okay.
Suddenly Yuzaka's father's phone call rang. The one who called was Riha. Yuzaka's mother answered the phone and talked to Riha. Riha told me about last night. Almost the rented door he occupied was entered by a thief. But luckily the residents and Mr. RT came on time. It turns out that residents have been lurking since a week ago since the Aram chicken disappeared. The culprit Jum and Lam are contracted next to Uncle Yuro. The culprit is already at the police station. Riha also starts her contract move tomorrow. He's with his co-worker contracted in a different place. The three of them can take care of each other. Yuzaka's mother is shocked and calms down that Riha is now moving out on a contract and has a friend. Yuzaka's mother also said that next Sunday they moved to Kalimantan, in Balikpapan City. It certainly makes Riha sad too. The only family in the city of Palembang, now gone too.

Meanwhile, in a rented area around Sukarami District, Palembang City. Two young men were sitting in the front room. Both face the letop.
"Jon, you've collected a sample of the roof of your thesis research mosque." Ask friend.
"Before Asdi, from seventeen districts in Palembang City. It turns out that Talang Kelapa District has not." Answer Jon.
"Oh, when are you there." Ask Asdi.
"It's not certain yet, anyway, next week." Jon replied again, he was seen looking at photos of the roof of the mosque. He observed the architecture of the mosque he had documented.
"You yourself, how's your village's monograph research." Ask Jon.
"Already, if the monograph of the village. Just ask for it at the village chief and interview. Just I'm confused this thesis research theory is not fitting. What do you think Jon." Obviously and continued asking.
"I'm still a student, you're the same guidance counselor. Don't guide me." Jon replied, both of them laughed lightly. In front of the contract looks like the rented mother came home from the market. Some young men passed by in the streets. Two motorcycles enter the rental yard. They saw four friends coming. See who comes in directly.
"Woy, get in boy." Call Asdi and all become cheerful with jokes and funny words Arip and friends. Such was the student world that was full of delusions and worries about the future. But they hide behind the joy of togetherness.

Barda is not so excited, but also still hopes to find her mother. It has been four hours both of them around the city of Palembang. Then stop by a meatball stall, Meatballs Getong.
"What meatballs, Ayuk." A waiter came with a menu list.
"Super Getong Meatball, complete, two." Said Barda's wife.
"Drink." Ask the waiters again.
"Mango juice, and avocado juice should not be mixed with ice." Barda's wife said. Meanwhile, the two children of the owner of the Super Gentong meatball shop play in front of the shophouse row. A grandmother sells cakes. He serves shoppers at the sweet shop next door.
"Mother, buy a good grandma's cake." Pinta's two children.
"It buys all." His mother said he gave fifty thousand. "Yuri, you buy fried food." Waiters called Yuri bred, she went to the confectionery shop on the side. Some customers of Meatballs Getong arrived. There are so many fans of this meatball. Besides being good, the price is also affordable.
"Thank you, Grandma." Said the meatball shop owner's son.
"Yes, you're welcome." Answer grandma. Then the grandmother went on trading. Barda and his wife seemed to enjoy the delicious Getong Meatballs.
"This is a little if you want a chip. Nice grandma's cake, special season." Said the owner of the meatball stall offering to Barda and his wife. From that time, Barda's wife always talked. So that it becomes familiar, that is why the meatball shop owner offers them. Barda and his wife tasted sponge cake and fried tempeh. Both seem to know that feeling. But I don't know where. Lama Barda pondered while eating meatballs. Suddenly his heart beats and his memory returns.
"Yummy." Barda said softly. Suddenly Barda got up and ran out. He asked some people if they saw a grandmother selling cookies.
"To there Om." Reply to a housekeeper girl at the end shop. Barda ran down every street. But she did not find a grandmother selling cakes. Almost everywhere around him he combed. Tired of walking he took his car. But she did not find a grandmother selling cakes. Barda called her sister, Pak Hadi's wife.
"Mom's alive, I'm sure Dik." That was Barda's last word before she hung up. His voice was a sign that he was crying. Indeed, the mother's cooking will not be forgotten the taste of her children's tongues forever.

That afternoon, Aunt Walah again quarreled with Uncle Yugus. Deak cried sadly and ran to Aram's contract. Areha and Salika invited him to play around.
"Tarrr. Tarrr. Primes." The cup and some of the crushed dishes were slammed by Bibik Walah.
"Brakk." I heard a big thing fall.
"I can't take it anymore, I can't take it anymore." Said Aunt Walah while screaming. All voices and words were heard from Aram's contract and Uncle Yuro's contract.
"Deak, look at the baby's sister smiling. Looks like he likes you." Salika said softly. Makes Deak feel comfortable and happy. Junka comes home from school, but he can't get into the contract because it's locked from the inside.
"Compense Me, please marry your affair." Shouted Bibik Walah.
"Ohhhhh, diaamm. Women are shameless of youuuu." Said Uncle Yugus no less fierce and loud. Aunt Walah cried so hard. Uncle Yuro's wife emerges from the contract. He intended to break up the quarrel of Uncle Yugus and Aunt Walah. Found Junka crying at the door.
"Tok. tok. tok." Uncle Yuro's wife knocked on the door, but was not responded to.
"Law. Yugus. That's enough, please open the door." Said uncle Yuro's wife over and over again. But neither did they hear. The two continue to fight.
"If you want a divorce, we're divorced." The words of Uncle Yugus.
"Yes, that's better. So you can be happy with that itchy woman." Replied Aunt Walah defiantly. Uncle Yuro's wife pity Junka. He seems to be carrying his diploma and his report book. Still wearing school uniforms.
"Junka, you're playing at Areha's. Look at baby sister Salika." Said Uncle Yuro's wife. Junka nodded and went to Aram's contract while crying bitterly.
...*****...
Meanwhile, inside Uncle Yugus's contract was a mess. Upside down cabinets and clothes scattered. Uncle Yugus' motorcycle flipped over and the gasoline dripped. Glass and glass are also scattered. The water inside the kettle spilled on the floor.
"Seek for the key, I'm leaving." Uncle Yugus said to Aunt Walah who was crying while sitting on the bed. Uncle Yugus who was already angry and rose in blood snapped. He also kicked anything around him.
"Turrr. graurr." To put the towel he kicked. Then try to take the door key in Bibik Walah's pocket. Aunt Walah did not remain silent. He then threw the key towards the kitchen and the key floated down behind the dish rack. Next to the dish rack was a gas stove table. Uncle Yugus is looking for an impatient key. He's rummaging through the dish rack.
"Sir." His leg tripped over a three-kilo gas barrel. The pain was not playing, making Uncle Yugus become stifled. Then pull the gas barrel firmly and forcefully the head of the gas hose is attracted. Make the gas barrel needle attracted strong, and broken. As a result, the gas comes out of the gas barrel itself. Uncle Yugus smelled gas but he ignored it. Keep looking for the door lock.
"It's so dark." Said Uncle Yugus, there is no window in the kitchen room. Uncle Yugus then headed for the light switch. He wants to turn on the lights to be bright.
"Junka, Deak, forgive my son's mother. I'm sorry, mother." Said Bibik Walah crying, he was sure only by divorce can solve the household problems. He thought Uncle Yugus would never change again. Smell of gas and gasoline motor.
Meanwhile, Uncle Yugus approached the light switch and pressed the switch.
"Tet." The sound of the switch is squeezed.
"Duummm." An explosion sounded loud.
