"Where? Do you believe my words now?" Sandra approached and whispered to him. Nayla didn't say anything to him.
"What does all this mean?" Nayla was still very surprised.
"Nayla, can you explain?" Aisyah approached towards him.
"What else do you want to explain? This is clear enough for me." Nayla ran out of the house.
"Day!! Nayla!!" Aisha tried to chase after him.
"Dear, stop!" Panji.
"Mas, I have to explain it to Nayla." Aisha crying.
"Later, we'll meet him and explain all this. Now leave him alone." said Panji.
"But, Mas ...?"
"Already." as soon as.
"Damn it!!" Sandra looked disgusted to see them.
"What is all this you're doing?" accuse Aisyah of seeing Sandra reproach her.
"Why are you accusing me? Ask your son where he knows" he replied rudely.
"Sandraa!!" shouts Panji. "Honor your mother!"
"Mother?" the answer. "He's not my mother, but papa's servant." Sandra went up to her room.
"You don't have to take his words" said Panji, Aisyah could only be silent.
Nayla ran as far away as possible from the Sandra housing complex. Her heart was broken watching her mother make out with a man who was not her husband. All the words of Sandra and the others were ringing in his ears.
"Why are you doing all this?" ask in tears. He did not care about the view of the person who saw his current condition.
"Naila!" Cleo who was on her way home saw Nayla running like a person who was not necessarily direction.
"Sir, please follow him!" he said to Mr. Karyo.
"Good, Non." Karyo chases after Nayla, and immediately stops her car when she sees Nayla speechless at the bus stop.
"Day! You why?" Nayla raised her head and saw Cleo standing in front of her.
"You want what, Lo?" Cleo could still see the rest of the tears on her cheeks.
"Why you?" Cleo tries to touch him but Nayla brushes Cleo off.
"Don't touch me!" snapped it.
"I just want to help you" Cleo replied.
"Not pretend to be good. I know you're just as bad as them." she refused.
"Who do you mean?" ask Cleo.
"Your new friend. You guys must have done this to me on purpose. Are you satisfied now? You must know about all this?" Nayla can't control her emotions.
"I don't understand what you mean." she replied.
"You must always laugh at me and my mother. You guys are really mean. Especially lo! I finally know what kind of person you are" he said.
"I'm sorry, Nay! But, I can't possibly tell you about that. It would hurt your heart." Cleo finally knew what made Nayla angry.
"Curtain!!! Don't care about my feelings. People like you will not understand. I'm sure you do it to avenge your friend's heartache." Nayla's upset.
"Nay, you're not the only one who's hurt. Sandra was more hurt. Because of your mother, her parents had to divorce. You should feel sorry for him, not blame him constantly" Cleo replied.
"Oh, so now you're the hero?" Nayla gets angrier when she hears Cleo standing up for Sandra.
"I'm not defending him. But, I don't think you deserve to continue to blame Sandra after what she's been through" Cleo replied.
"Then I will make sure your friend suffers for the rest of his life. I'll pay back what he did to me first." he threatened.
"What do you mean?" tanyakanya.
"Lo said he was suffering because of my mother. So, I'll make sure your words come true. It wasn't my mother who would make him suffer, but me." Cleo was stunned to see the change that had happened to Nayla.
"I didn't think you could think that" Cleo said.
"Why? I just give back what I receive. And, lo? How are you doing with your dad? Is he alive at the moment?" ledek.
"Naila!!" shout Cleo.
"Why? Are you starting to feel sorry for him now? Don't you hate your father? If he's gone, isn't that better?"
"BLACK!!" Cleo slapped him. His face flushed red, and he stared intently at Nayla.
"Gue regretted ever considering you a friend." Cleo's voice rang out.
"Gue never asked you to be my friend. Lo who's a good ass comes into my life." Naylapun no less angry.
"Gue thought our relationship ended here" Cleo said, leaving Nayla alone.
Cleo looked at the phone she was holding ringing.
"Hello, Bi?" he said when he found out who contacted him was bi Ita.
"Where's number? You're home yet?" tanyakanya.
"Yet, Bi. What was? Is dad okay?" ask Cleo.
"Gentlemen have opened their eyes, Non." she reported.
"really? I'll be there soon." Cleo looks happy.
"Sir, we go back to the hospital" Cleo said as soon as she got into the car.
"Good, Non." Cleo's car flashed in front of Nayla, but Cleo no longer turned her head at all. Her heart ached hearing Nayla's words about her father.

"Dad!!" Cleo looked at Adam who had already opened his eyes. He ran and hugged Adam's body. "I'm glad you're sober" he said, shedding tears. Adam could only shed tears, he could not speak because he was still using an oxygen mask.
"You're here?" ask Vincent who just went into Adam's room.
"What's dad's condition?" ask Cleo.
"Thank God, your father has improved. But, for a while he still has to be treated here. We have to monitor the progress." Cleo nodded in agreement.
"Uncle, just do it! I just want you to get well soon." Cleo looked at Adam lovingly.
"Look! You're lucky to have a daughter like this." praise Vincent, Adam tried to smile.
"Let's do another test. You don't have to worry, we'll do our best for him" Vincent said before leaving.
"Dad listen? Dad should be excited. I'm sure you'll be cured." Cleo held the hand that she had longed for. Adam shed tears again.
Before long, two nurses came to take Adam through a series of examinations. Cleo faithfully accompanied Adam.
"Thank God! From now on I will never hurt you again" he said in front of the waiting room.
"Alhamdulillah, Non, finally you realize" bi Ita told him.
"Yes, Bi!" his reply.
"But why not go home?" bi Ita only realized that the clothes Cleo used were still the ones yesterday.
"Oh, here, I had a little business" he lied. "Bi, I don't think I'm going home. Auntie can bring some of my clothes. I think I'll take a room for Dad later. So, I can take a shower and change clothes there" she said.
"Of course." bi Ita understood, and he immediately left Cleo.

Aisyah went home and saw the condition of the house in the dark. He opened the door and turned on the light. Aisyah walked towards Nayla's room. But, there was no way Nayla was there.
"CREEK!" he looked up when he heard the door open.
"Darling!" he walked closer to Nayla. "We need to talk!" Aisha prevents Nayla.
"What do you want to say?" ask Nayla. He sat on the carpet followed by Aisyah.
"Nay, I'm doing all this for you" she replied.
"Don't make me an excuse for mother's sins" he said.
"Mom wants you to live happily, you can go to college and achieve your goals without having to bother." he explained. Nayla who was unwilling to look at him now turned to her mother.
"But, why be a mistress of a man who has been berisitri?" Nayla emotion.
"They're divorced. It's not your fault that she loves you." Aisha did not seem to feel guilty at all.
"But he's Sandra's dad. Do you know what my relationship is with him?" said it.
"You don't have to think about it. The important thing is that you can stay in a luxurious house, and continue your school." replied Aisyah.
"Since when did Mom get into a relationship with om Panji?" tanyakanya. Aisyah. "Jawab, Mum!" his insistence.
"Since you're going to graduate Junior High. She offered me to put you in the same school as Sandra." Nayla is surprised, she now understands why Sandra, her best friend, could hate her so much.
"Mother willing to give mother's body just for my school? Don't you care what I'm dealing with afterwards?" nayla's tears flowed hearing everything.
"What do you mean?" ask Aisyah.
"Mother made me a victim of Sandra's bully and her friends. All this time I didn't know what was wrong. But, after hearing all this, I know why Sandra did it." Nayla sobbed, while Aisyah was shocked to hear what her daughter had been through all this time. "Where are you going?" he asked when he saw Aisyah coming out.
"Mom should see Sandra. He has to pay for what he has done to you" she replied with red eyes holding back tears.
"That's not necessary! I don't need any of that." Nayla.
"But ....?" Nayla ran towards her room before Aisyah continued her words.
