My cousin Maduku
Chapter 67 Keynan's Identity


Currently Riska is shopping for her basic food stalls in the traditional market along with someone who will be her employee later.


"Lis, is everything?" ask Riska to the woman who will be her employee.


Actually Riska can still handle her own new Sembako stall she pioneered, because indeed the previous effort she did alone. But after returning from the village, a teenage girl forced him to be hired. He was tired of living on the streets.


Because of Iba and feeling sorry, Riska also accepts Lisa to work with him. With the condition that his salary can not be maximal because his effort is still new.


"It's Mommy!" lisa said after checking the note in her hand.


"Well, let's go home now!" bring Riska.


...----------------...


 "You keep it, the stuff in the stall. After we have breakfast, we will clean up together. Let's go in the house!" tell Riska after arriving home and parking her car.


"Daddy Ma'am." replied Lisa obediently. Then the girl steps towards the stall that Riska wakes up next to her rented house.


Riska struggled in the kitchen preparing breakfast for the two of them. Riska makes the menu the simplest to do, fried rice egg sausage.


Before long the food was ready, along with Lisa who had just entered the house.


"Wuih Mbak her cooking is so fragrant!" lisa smiled.


"really?"


"Daddy the taste of worms in my stomach continues to thrash in the contents" Lisa replied chuckling.


"There are you!" said Riska as she sat her butt in the chair.


"Oh Iyah Ma'am I want to say thank you because Mbak wants to accept Lisa here" said Lisa smiling looking at Riska.


"Dad, don't hesitate Ma'am is also here alone, if you are here. Ma'am so have friends." replied Riska replied with a smile. "Watch this as your brother?" said Riska.


Lisa also nodded.


They also ate breakfast with khitmad before starting their activities today.


While busy, Riska's cell phone rang.


The name Abian called. But before long the ringing of the phone was dead, replaced with incoming messages still from Abian.


Riska's hand opened her incoming message from Abian.


[Are you busy? I'd like to take you to meet Keynan.]


Riska's closeness with Abian is re-established, even when they return home from Rizky's wedding reunion.


At that time Abian asked in the Riska tract. And Riska took it with pleasure.


They went to a famous pecel stall even though he said the stall was not long open.


By driving each vehicle, they arrived about 20 minutes to the pecel stall.


Riska and Abian enjoy their food with an open atmosphere, breeze and atmosphere of rice fields make their food taste delicious.


Several times Riska took a sip of water because of the spiciness.


"Religious tedes?" Abian was worried about Riska whose lips started to turn red from being spicy. Time and again the woman shrank the snot and sweat on her forehead.


"He'eh but it's delicious. Make nagih. Do you like to write like this?" answer Riska after sipping water in her glass to the toilet.


"Yes this pecel flavor reminds me of mom's cooking," Abian fell silent afterwards.


Riska knew how her friend felt. He gave Abian time to dive into his feelings.


They fell silent a few minutes later.


"Oh yeah, what were you talking about?" Abian reminded after he returned to be able to master his feelings.


"Actually I'm still curious about Keynan, who exactly is Keynan? What's his relationship with you?" Riska paused seeing Abian's expression for a moment.


Abian took a deep breath.


"Do you remember Novita? our friend whose house is not far from school." Abian looked at Riska's face. The woman squinted her eyes at her interlocutor.


"Yes remember. A simple beautiful girl. The house that is still the room is not it?" Riska confirmed his memory.


However, the woman was still wondering what her relationship to her question was?


"Yes right, being pregnant with a man made her fall in love. But unfortunately the man was not responsible." the statement from Abian made Riska beristighfar and covered her own mouth.


"Don't tell me Keynan's Novita's son." Riska tried to draw conclusions.


"What a hunch you've got, Riska." Abian took a breath.


"Then, where is Novita now? how is he doing right now?" Riska who is easily sympathetic also feels concerned about the fate of her friend.


"Novita died after giving birth. Her father was hypertensive and died after hearing the news of her youngest daughter becoming pregnant out of wedlock."


"Innalilahi.. ya Allah .. when if not wrong he just has one parent. Her mother died when we were in high school, right?" Riska remembers Novita's parents.


"You're right. It is very sad for Novita. Pregnant out of wedlock because it was trapped, then dumped just like that. Lucky that time Bu Mayang was beside Novita when the difficult times for the woman. Even Bu Mayang is in the delivery seconds Novita."


"Who is Ma Mayang? What's Miss Keynan?" Riska wanted to know, Abian nodded.


Abian's reply left Riska dumbfounded. But the woman was not satisfied. Because the essence of his curiosity has not been answered.


"Where are the men who impregnated Novita?" riska's question made Abian turn to the woman beside him.


"Do you know who Keynan's father is?" Riska shook her head.


"Well, who is your relative who has a facial line almost the same as Keynan?"


Riska was silent for a moment. His memories explored the faces of his brothers.


"Don't you look like Arman?" Riska tried to guess.


"Yes. Keynan has many similarities with Arman." Abian's description makes Riska jerked in surprise.


Arman is Siska's older brother who now lives in Borneo. Since his departure, he has not been home for five years. As Riska knew, her cousin had married a local there. And Riska doesn't know the news now.


"Arman who impregnated Novita? Were they previously in a relationship?" Riska was shocked to hear all this. The woman did not know what kind of relationship Novita and Arman cousin.


"Novita never dated by Arman. The man came with a million dreams. Novita, the innocent girl dropped her heart on Arman. They're dating for 6 months. For him, Arman was a good and trustworthy young man. So he was willing to be taken somewhere. I thought I'd take a picnic. Whatever Arman gives is always received with pleasure. Including a bottle of canned drink. One bottle of Novita sips until it runs out unsuspecting. Unfortunately, Arman takes her to an empty house. And that's where he stained Novita." Abian's description made Riska shake her head.


It turned out that it was not only Siska whose treatment was minus, her brother was the same. And it makes him feel sad.


"Then has Novita ever tried to meet Bi Narti?" riska's question made Abian stare intensely at her friend's face.


"Your aunt kicked him out. And get Arman to Kalimantan immediately. The woman did not accept Novita. His father Novita was a man who had nothing and could do nothing but surrender. But, in silence became a burden on his mind. He eventually died of hypertension."


Riska really did not think that her aunt became a super human being.


"Novita told me before she breathed her last passions. He didn't want Arman to know about his son. Novita died with untreatable pain." Abian's description made Riska shed tears.


The woman imagined how difficult it would be for Novita.


They were both silent and dissolved with their own thoughts.


"Sir, what did you want to say?" Riska has taken control of the situation. He also remembered Abian who wanted to talk about something.


"Will you come raise Keynan with me?" Riska frowned not understanding the words of her best friend. Riska who knows nothing tries hard to digest Abian's request.
