"No... "

"Why. I've lost, if I can't drive you because I have a need "

"Yes.you're actually going where Mik is"

"There's a meeting" Mika replied lying

"Until what time is the meeting"

"Until what time I don't know"

"Then I'll come with you for the meeting. I'll just wait outside"

"You'll get tired of waiting"

"No, I'm waiting for you to meet. After that we have to go to the hospital"

"To the hospital, what did Del" asked Mika nervously.

"I want to come check on your health.. "

"Check health. "ask Mika pura startled.

"Mika. I know you're going to hospital today. You want to check your health. I saw the reference paper to the neurologist who fell over yesterday while you were asleep.. "

"No, Del. I go alone"

"I'm coming with Mik. I'd also like to know what diseases you might be having. .."

"But I want to be alone.. "

"If I beg you, do not forbid me. If you love me, you won't ban me and hide anything from me"

"But I'm afraid you'll hear what I'm suffering from"

"Whatever I'm ready to hear.. "

"But Del... "

"Nothing but but but that's if you really sincerely love me. Because whatever it is that you feel I want to feel.. "Adel already knew a little bit that Mika might have brain cancer. He saw Mika's phone what Mika found out yesterday from google.

She was suspicious after seeing Mika cry yesterday. When Mika falls asleep on her shoulder, Adel opens Mika's phone and finds out everything.

"But Del. I'm not ready, if you know what I'm suffering from, I don't want you to feel sorry for me"

"Mika. I have to come"Adel crouched down in front of Mika begging

"Stand up. But you promise me that you won't tell me what you know later "

Mika pulls her car off on a lonely road.

"Why crying... "

"Mika. I'm not ready to hear the results..."

"That's why I forbid you to come. You will be sad. You know, if I knew myself, I had one dangerous disease, I could have endured it myself. But seeing the people I love also follow sad, I won't be strong and make me worse. I want the people I love to live happily... "

"I love you so much, you have to promise never to hide anything, I want to feel what you're feeling too"

Mika takes Adel into her arms, she kisses Adel's hair.

Adel cried sobbing in Mika's chest, she could not say anything else.

At the house of Adel and Mika behaved normally, they did not want the mother to be suspicious.

It has been almost ten days Adel accompanied Mika to do various health checks.

Various tests were conducted by Mika. He was drob and wanted to stop doing a series of tests, but Adel always encouraged him.

Starting from blood tests that include a complete blood count, kidney function tests, ureum and electrolyte tests, as well as tumor and chemical marker tests.

CT scan, MRI and PET scan are also performed. This is done so that doctors can scan the brain, with this method to find out the location of the tumor/cancer and its spread.

Adel is actually sorry to see Mika have to do a series of tests that. Mika who had to endure the headaches that arrived, nausea and vomiting that sometimes also felt.

Adel tried to look tough in front of Mika, he did not want to show his sadness and fragility in front of Mika.

But when in the room, he would shed all his tears. Every night he just cries.

"Yet bun... Mother breakfast first, later let Adel wake up"

"Try you've married Mika, mother will never worry again. Someone's taken care of her"

"Then you can marry Adel to Mika now"

"You. There's just Del... "

"Didn't you like it when I was your daughter-in-law"

"Who said he didn't like it. Even mother really expects you to be mother's daughter-in-law. But your parents agree too. You're still very young anyway"

"No, you can't marry my age now. May it? "

"Of course you can, but you are afraid that later you will regret because of your youth you have to live as a wife"

"Mother.I'll think about it"
