The Un Familiar Brother
⁶⁴UFB

The sound of a spatula meeting the frying surface welcomed the hearing of the man who had just entered the kitchen area. He stepped straight into the refrigerator, ignoring the man who was busy cooking in front of the stove. The fragrant aroma that he smelled was also simply ignored.

"Woi, this is salty," commented a loud voice belonging to someone who sounded familiar in the ear.

"I have not added sugar yet" replied the chef. The man in front of the stove was busy stirring his cooking.

"Owh, pantesan." Iki chuckles at hearing it. It was just right that the taste of the cuisine he tried was very salty. Realizing the presence of the leader of SPHINIX, Iki immediately turned his head. "Ta, where are you semalem?" Iki asked the man who had just downed half a bottle of mineral water that he had taken from the refrigerator.

"Orion, meet me at the rooftop."

Instead of answering, the owner of the name chose to shift the subject before leaving the kitchen.

He sauntered flat, no matter if Iki chattered indistinctly because it was ignored. His feet towards the middle room. There he chose to sit himself on the sofa, then grabbed a flat object from a table near the sofa.

Since last night he just left it there. When you press the power button, the flat object lights up, showing a photo of a woman smiling beautifully towards the camera. In the arms of the woman was a handsome baby wrapped in a light blue blanket sleeping. The baby was her, eighteen years ago. When he was so innocent, when he was first born into the world.

One vibration shifted its focus which drifted out of nowhere. A short message just came in through a notification. Ignored him. After all, the no-man's message always meets the notification. He had no time to read or reply.

"It turns out you're here, Ta."

Arga, the owner of the nickname, looked over. "What's wrong?"

The pierced man who had just sat himself in front of the leader threw a fixed glance at his interlocutor. "Gue bring important Informa."

"What?"

"Lo girl identity."

Arga immediately focused on attention, hearing and vision, all focused only on Libra.

"Everything you're looking for is here." Libra offers a brown map. Arfa accepted it immediately.

The man immediately opened the thing. Take out the contents, then read the strand after strand of the word carefully. Each word in these sentences he looked carefully.

A few minutes later, Arga clenched both his hands tightly. His handbooks until whitened, so strong fists. His jaw hardened for a moment. His pair of flushed reddened anger.

"That's the most valid information I can get." Libra opens the sound. "They were two single collision victims eleven years ago. By law, they were already presumed dead after the accident. Though their bodies were not found until now."

"...."

"They used to live in the cities of Surabaya and Semarang, even living outside the island of Java. They were nomadic or migrating before coming to this town."

Arga was still listening carefully.

"Andra Atmajaya used to work in one of the BUMD based in Jakarta. He also worked for BIN before he and his daughter were lost in the tragic accident." Libra speaks straightforwardly. For this matter, ja really goes the extra mile. "According to medical recap, their DNA tests match, Ta. 99.9% they are most likely Andra Atmajaya and her daughter."

"Is their relationship the same?"

"Friends and business partners. The late mother lo was also a close friend of his wife Andra Atmajaya."

"Woman's a close friend of Mama's?" Arga grinned faintly hearing it. "And then, that woman is now seizing Mama's position."

Libra can only be silent to hear it. Although he had parents who liked to demand this and that, but as far as he saw, both his father and mother seemed to have no chance of cheating. Considering they are a pair that already complement each other, and clop with each other from the Libra point of view.

While Arga's memory back melanglang buana. He remembers very well the first time his father brought the woman and her two children into the Natadisastra residence. At that time, his mother was very ill. Instead of taking his wife to the hospital, his father introduced a foreign woman he called his new mother and brother to him.

Arga is actually not too familiar with the face of Sussanne, considering that his mother had several times involving Arga when meeting women who he said were close friends of his mother. Only for Arga the woman remains a foreign woman who suddenly entered between her parents' relationship.

Libra is small. Trying to develop Arga's attention. "But there's more to it than that, Ta."

"…."

"If it's really them, then most likely your girl is the flesh blood of that woman. So, it's clear if you guys ... brothers."

Damn, Libra speech managed to make the leader aware after being slapped. If true, the girl was the flesh blood of the woman he hated so much. The brother of the firebird and his twin.

The girl shared her blood with the demons who had snatched away her happiness.

"Ta?"

The leader of SPHINIX went without many words. The man snatched his motorcycle key and pride jacket before leaving the basecamp. He rode his iron horse in awe. It was as if the streets were in his power at this moment.

The goal is only one at this time, which is a shabby iron-fenced house with a dull paint color that has peeled off in some parts. The house was currently in front of him. Sepi among the lush green plants that are deliberately planted by the diligent hands of the owner of the house. Right and left of this house is still a densely populated housing, but there seems to be no life activities that indicate human existence.

"Nara!" Arga called out to the owner in a loud voice, almost shouting.

He didn't care if the girl got angry or kicked him out. Right now, there is only one thing he wants to know. Truths. He wanted to know the truth directly from the girl's mouth.

"Nara, open the door! I know you're inside." Arga called the girl again. "Nara!" repeat it for the umpteenth time. However, there was no answer from the owner of the house.

The sky began to cry. Drizzling. The cloud started rolling. The raindrops began to fall one by one accompanied by strong winds, lightning and thunder that boomed far there. Arga was undaunted. His voice was no less blaring, calling the owner of the house. Surrender with the sound of thunder that does not want to give up.

"Nara, open the door!" lirih the beautiful man while sticking his forehead on the door that is still reluctant to open.

His body was wet with rain. Her black hair was limp, her handsome face started to pale. However, he still did not want to move even a little from the place. He is still persistent indeed even though the universe began to be unfriendly.

"Eh, what is this Aa doing?"

Arga turned his head quickly when he heard another voice there.

"What's going on here?" asked the boy who came in with a rain coat covering his body that was not up to Arga's waist. The boy clasped a medium-sized black crackle in his hand

"Of Alea's tea, A?"

Arga nodded without speaking.

"Teh Alea mah tos te aya atuh, A."

"Where?"

"Had. Last time mah went with fatherna," said the boy who spoke thick with the Sundanese accent.

"What's the ride?"

"Car, A. I think I'm going far."

Arga clenched his hand even stronger. "You don't know where they're going?"

The boy shook his head. "Teh Alea just said she wanted to go far. That's what he said" the boy explained. "Aa drive home, rain. It hurts when it rains."

Arga nodded softly. The boy left after that. He who is an adult is advised by a small child, increasing the awareness that is captured.

"Good." Arga turned. A thin smile adorns the lips. "Lo goes when I know this shit*n information."

Arga doesn't have to look for the girl anywhere. Maybe this has been planned for a long time by the girl. Or maybe, the girl already knew if her identity was leaked, then she chose to leave?

🫐🫐

"Eat, you haven't eaten from yesterday."

A plate of fried rice equipped with a grain of skinless chicken, meatballs, peas, and green vegetables was presented in front of him. Complete with steam that is still steaming from the food. Not to miss the delicious aroma that is ready to spoil the sense of smell.

"Gue is not a laper."

"Lo may not be a laper, but your body needs nutritional intake" said the man who now offers a glass of water

"Gue's not hungry, anj*ng!" snapped the leader of SPHINIX, his interlocutor wrathfully.

"Hmm, whatever. I feel as though I have been sent from him." The man passed after saying so.

Arga looked at the back of Orion who was now walking away. Anything with that guy? Usually Orion will not bother to take care of Arga's stomach. After all, Arga will not go to the hospital just because he does not eat all day. This time why should Orion bother so?

The handsome man's daydream was crazed when he heard a loud noise that made him jump in shock. His bead spontaneously stared at the pile of objects that someone had just dropped on the table. It was that thing that just made a pretty loud noise.

"Wrn*ng! I told you no one would dare bother me!" aspir Arga wrath.

The man who had just dropped the thick books did not bully. He chose to thicken his face. "It's the same package of test grilles in two weeks. You have to learn everything, Ta. Let's make it easy to pass the test."

"F*ck!"

"We also have a staging schedule after school, don't forget." Still not harried. The man was busy doing his job.

"Gue doesn't care!"

"Next week there's a practice schedule, don't forget."

Dean was unceasingly cursing. I don't know what's going on with people today. They treat themselves like nothing happened. Though it is clear if the leader is in the midst of confusion looking for the lover of the heart. However, they instead treated him like a child to watch.

"Gue go first. Don't forget to eat lo-food"

"Whispering. Anj!"

"Yes, the Any*ng. It is said to even fishing," Anxious the man while rolling his eyeballs lazy.

"Don't bother me!" decreed Arga.

"Someone wants to bother you, Ta. We just want to carry out his last mandate," the man before breezing away, leaving Arga alone.

"Ck. What's the matter with them?"

Arfa is well aware if anything changes between the core members of the SPHINIX gang. The mood has been ruined for a few days. However, the members thought everything was fine. They even become increasingly strange, because they always pay attention to all their needs ranging from trivial things.

"What's the same with you?!" wrathful snapping.

After going through days that made him uncomfortable, Arga finally chose to gather his gang members. There are more than 50 active members gathered tonight. They use a mainstay alma mater, black T-shirts, black jackets with the logo of the SPHINIX Gang, with subordinates jeans complete with other ornaments such as hats, slayers, headbends, and so on.

"Talk to me, you on why huh?! Not a task that I already love, you are busy dealing with trivial things!"

"That's our job" said Libra.

"Where's the task?"

"Tasks from him."

Arga looked at Libra who had just answered his question sharply. "He who? Why are you following his orders, not mine?! Wanna be your traitor!"

"He's Infinity" replied Libra undaunted. "He's an infinity who's now transformed into the leader's lover of SPHINIX."

"Omong empty!"

"Yes. Infinity tells us a message before we go." Iki open the sound. "He said goodbye in a text message. Not just me, Libra to Orion, even almost all active members get messages from infinity."

"Hm. He also said nitip mandate to always keep lo," added Orion. "He did all this before he left."

"Why didn't anyone tell me that, bangs*t?!" ask Arga wrathfully.

"Holden your emotions, Ta." Orion. He held the arm of the leader who had been clenched firmly.

"Take off me!"

Orion remained silent. "He said goodbye before he left, but lo abay, Ta."

"She was saying goodbye but you were too angry and emotional when you found out about the information." Libra is moving forward. "He prepared this long before he knew everything. He doesn't want to get hurt, Ta."

"It doesn't matter if he's afraid I'm hurt, anj*ng!"

The members of the SPHINIX gang were compactly silent.

"He shouldn't have left me" Arga continued with emotions that were still unstable.

Libra jacked up, staring at Arga again. "Maybe this is not the right way according to you, but according to him this is the most real and effective way."

"It's not fair to me!" Arga looked at his interlocutors with raging fury. "Lo on getting information that he's going to leave me, why don't you prevent him from making me huh?!"

Orion takes up a position. "Because this is what's best for you, Ta."

"Many bac*t lo, Lib, Yon." Arga wrathful. So wrathful. They even saw Arga for the first time wrath like this after the death of Seno. "You know he's leaving, and you're not telling me?"

Libra shook his head. "Gue has no right to tell you, Ta. Lo yang abay same him. You don't understand the meaning of all his struggles."

Arga smirked little hearing it. "good. Now you're on to betray me?"

"It's not about betrayal, Ta. From the beginning you broke our banner. Even if we do this, we imu lo, Leader of SPHINIX."

Arga clenched his hands hard. His dark bead gleamed furiously staring in any direction.

"You want him what exactly? Why did he go so I left without explanation," he explained later. Successfully silence the members who realize that their actions are already fairly selfish.

They have separated the leader from his soulmate in a way that is not right.
