Los Angeles, US
PLAQUE..
BUGH'S..
“How can you not tell us that the plane Ace was using crashed, Dean!” said a middle-aged man angrily to his second son.
How not when they just returned from their vacation they are faced with the harsh reality that their first son died in a plane crash. The funeral was carried out in private and without their knowledge.
“Sorry Father” said Dean held back the ringing from the pain of his lip wound
“Sorry you said, are you sorry you could make Ace back!! What exactly are you thinking, bastard!” said Lyran, Ace's sister with tears flowing profusely.
“Lyran enough, calm yourself” Jack broke up
“Dad defended him, he killed Ace!” lyran said he did not accept
“I've investigated everything, the jet Ace used had a tank explosion. There are no survivors, I can't contact you guys and Ace's corpse should be buried immediately before it rotted because of it-“
PLAQUE..
It was not Lyran who slapped him but a middle-aged woman who had just regained her shock, for a moment the woman did not believe what she heard.
“How can you not contact us, YOU CONSIDER US WHAT DEAN!!” the middle-aged woman who slapped Dean was Yerina, Ace's mother. The woman's body trembled, the hand she used to slap Dean shook.
“Ace I'm gone.…” Yerina is in Lyran's arms. The two of them both fell into a deep sense of shock and weeping sorrow.
“I've tried to contact Mom but there is no connection connected to the island” Dean explained
“You didn't think to send a guard and tell us Dean!!” Lyran spoke again in the middle of his cry.
Dean just lowered his head, preferring not to answer. On Jack's other side, Ace's father now begins to observe the documents handed over by Dean. The document contains the results of an investigation into the downfall of the plane that Ace boarded.
There was nothing wrong with the report, but Jack felt it was wrong. There was not a single flaw in the file Dean submitted.
“Tell me where Ace is buried, we will visit him tomorrow” late Jack then step towards his study. There was no sad look on his face as he was sure Ace could not die so easily. His son was not a man who would die even in an explosion.

It has been a week since Liam lived with Shia, the two getting closer and sometimes joking. During that time also Shia explained something that Liam did not understand to spur the man's memory.
And today is the time for the man to have surgery on his head. At first Liam did not want to but after a long useless debate, Liam resigned and complied. Right now the man was waiting for Shia who was preparing inside her room.
“Do we have to go?"liam said after seeing Shia come out of her room in long jeans and a plain black shirt, the girl's hair tied one and a little messy making her look bad girl.
“You don't want to go?” shia asked back, he looked at Liam who instead laid his body on the sofa of his living room.
“We've talked about this Liam, please don't bother me!" said Shia.heard that Liam immediately got up and approached towards Shia
“I'm troubling you?” Liam asked in a flat tone
“Yes, so follow my words."
"Didn't you understand my concern Shia?" Shia raised her eyebrows confused, Liam sighed softly. Actually he didn't want to say this.
“What if after surgery I forget about you?” The blue netra was panned deep on both of Shia's brown eyeballs.
Liam flinch as Shia pulls her hand, the girl leads him outside towards the elevator that takes them to the basement, where Shia's car is parked.
Shia encourages Liam to sit in the passenger seat and himself behind the wheel. A faint smile was imprinted on the lips of the girl.
“You should feel lucky to be the first person to ride in my car”
Liam was silent, Shia's words had a bad impact on his heart and unfortunately he liked the impact even Liam did not realize if the car had walked to the hospital where Erika worked.
At 10:32 am, Shia and Liam arrive at the same hospital where Liam was treated earlier. The atmosphere of the hospital was quiet, only a few officeboys and nurses passed by in the hospital corridor. They are now in Erika's workspace, a minimalist room that looks messy because of documents and medical tools that are full on all sides.
“We will do a health check first and then continue with the operation procedure” explained Erika while wearing her mask. Before Erika wore the mask, Shia could see a tired look and a fading bruise on the doctor's left cheek.
Some speculation began to appear in his head, the only thought that was in accordance with logic was because Erika was too tired to work so accidentally her face was hit by something.
“Please follow me” Erika's voice resuscitates Shia. Now the beautiful doctor is in serious mode.
Shia looked at Liam who was following Erika, both when the woman asked him to do an examination and entered the operating room. Shia smiled thinly during this week she felt Liam was very obedient although sometimes resisted but if threatened then Liam would immediately obey, unlike adult men in general. Though Shia believes Liam is more mature than himself in terms of age.
The operation will be performed. Shia stared from behind the translucent glass as Erika injected Liam's arm with an anesthetic so that it kept the blue bead closed.
DRTT
Sensing the thrill of her behavior, Shia picks up the phone and sees Alex, her maternal cousin, calling.
Alex is the man he asked to help find out about Liam. Shia moved a little away from the operating room and picked up Alex's phone.
“Did you find anything, Lex?” Shia asked after the call was connected
“Unfortunately there is no. I can't verify the face you sent, are you sure the man is American?” Ask Alex to make sure
“It... I'm not sure” reply Shia hesitate. I heard a breath there
“Listen Shia there are 2 reasons why a person's identity cannot be found. First he uses a false identity or second he is a person in the lower world” said Alex sounded serious in Shia's ears.
“If the first option then obviously the face is different from the identity card and if the second I suggest you ask your father, the connection is further compared to me” Alex's suggestion makes Shia snort mischievously, he would not be willing to deal with his father if it was illegal especially if he asked Robert for help, surely the man would drag him home.
“Thank you for the suggestion but I don't think need”
“You sure? What if the man is dangerous” asked Alex
“From what I see he's harmless” replied Shia, he didn't tell Alex if the man was amnesiac and didn't remember anything.
“I just remind as a brother, Shia” said Alex sincerely
“I'm glad you consider me brother”
“Hey, I'm not that bad at forgetting my own brother”
“Thank you Alex, say hello to grandpa”
“Okay”
Shia turns off the phone, now Shia's head is filled with possibilities, about who Liam really is.
