Ember Hours

Ibsen Maulanza atau Moza adalah seorang remaja tampan rupawan yang salah asuhan, ia hakikatnya hanyalah pemuda biasa yang dalam pencarian jati diri. Namun, karena ia dibesarkan dalam lingkungan orang-orang yang menentang pemerintah dan mengemban misi untuk membuat berbagai kekacauan dan keonaran dalam negeri dengan maksud hilangnya kepercayaan masyarakat pada pemerintah, dan pada saat itulah para pemberontak yang sedang memperjuangkan kemerdekaan muncul sebagai pahlawan, begitulah yang diutarakan pemimpin mereka. Senjata dan peperangan adalah keahliannya, karena sejak dalam asuhan Gandara, ia sudah diajarkan cara merakit dan menggunakan senjata serta berbagai strategy perang hingga ia pun tumbuh sebagai mesin pembunuh. Misi utama Moza bukan hanya memerdekakan wilayahnya, tapi juga ingin mencari tahu siapa sesungguhnya orang yang telah membunuh keluarganya dengan keji. Kekacauan dan keonaran yang ia buat, hakikatnya hanyalah pelampiasan dendam yang bersarang di dadanya. Sebuah Misi hampir saja berhasil jika saja tahanan utama mereka tidak berhasil meloloskan diri, dan lolosnya tahanan mereka mengakibatkan peristiwa fatal. Markas pemberontak dibombardir dan banyak pasukan pemberontak yang tewas. Apalagi setelah peristiwa itu pemerintah mengadakan sapu bersih yang mengakibatkan semakin sempitnya pergerakan pasukan pemberontak. Moza yang masih berusia remaja namun menjadi salah satu yang diperhitungkan oleh pemimpin pergerakan, demi keamanannya, lewat relasi tersembunyi pemimpin pergerakan, Moza akhirnya dimasukan ke sebuah kampus dan menyamar sebagai mahasiswa. Namun, keputusan pemimpinnya itu justru menjadi bumerang bagi pergerakan mereka, karena Moza ternyata hanyut dengan rutinitas barunya. Apalagi setelah ia berjumpa dengan seorang gadis cantik mempesona bernama Zahra Maorrin Ayesha, dan karena gadis itu juga lah Moza berbalik arah memerangi pemberontak, dan para tentara Republik yang penasaran atas aksi heroik Moza yang berhasil menonaktifkan bom di kantor gubernur, kini mencari tahu siapa sesungguhnya Moza. Gerak gerik Moza pun semakin sempit, karena ia kini diburu oleh dua kelompok, pemberontak yang ingin membunuhnya dan tentara Republik yang ingin membongkar jaringan pemberontak.

I return home from my business trip that night. The pharmacy I always go to calls to say that my membership card was used that afternoon, but the payment failed, and the account needs to be topped up. I look over at my wife, Catherine Francis, who's focused on making dinner. I ask her what she bought. She smiles and pulls out a box of supplements. "I've been staying up late working these past few days. My heart's been acting up a little, so I bought some heart supplements." Seeing my expression go flat, she lets out a helpless sigh and takes a card out of her bag. "I know you're particular about money. Since I accidentally used your membership card, I'll pay you back ten times. Okay?" However, I don't take the card like I used to. I just look at her calmly and say, "Let's get a divorce."
