Hurts

By nightfall Zahid arrived at an orphanage also located in the suburbs . A simple orphanage that seems to house many disadvantaged children .

" this is Kak , this is the orphanage where Aunt Claire works . Brother Dean also often brought me here "

The two of them finally went inside the parlor and were greeted by several children who had known Zack before . Zahid's heart was slightly tangled with the very limited state of the parlour .

" Can I help you !? "

A man's voice jolted Zahid from his daydream . In front of him now stood a young man who was called Zack as 'Kak Dean ' .

" Hi .. " said Zahid with a clumsy smile, he remembered he had mistaken the man who was with Safa at that time as a striped man .

" Have we met ?? "

" Yes .. it seems so "

The young man only smiled cynically, it seemed like Dean had also remembered who Zahid was . But the young man was still trying to be polite .

" Please sit down, we speak inside . Zack you can accompany them to study in their own rooms . You're going to school tomorrow !! "

" Yes Brother "

After all the children went to his room then the two men continued their conversation .

" Ask, I will try to answer everything you want to know Mr. Zahid ! "

" You know me ? "

" It seems that there is no one in this country who does not know the Al Shamma clan "

" You're exaggerating Dean, can I ask ? Do you know a bartender named Safa ?? "

" Yes, he used to be one of the foster children here . And when he was a teenager he decided to live independently like other children who were less fortunate because they were not adopted by a family "

" What are those four other men also your brother's brothers !? "

" Yes, two of them were lucky to have been adopted by a good family . Although no longer living on one roof but we still maintain communication . And at the end of this we did meet more often "

" There's an abnormality in his heart, and it's a pretty tough situation considering his not-young age anymore "

Zahid sighed, it seemed like what was in his head was true . Safa needs the money for her foster mother's treatment .

" Is he here now !? "

" Him ? "

" Safa .. is he still with you !? "

Dean just smiled cynically in response to a question from Zahid .

" After giving money for Aunt Claire's treatment that night she left . And no one knows his purpose, including me "

" Have you guys purposely hidden her from me ?? "

" Why should we hide our own brother ? And what's the deal with you !! " dean's voice was heard rising at this moment .

" He ...."

" Do you want to drag her again ??!! If it had been night that we knew of his ridiculous plan, we would definitely not have left it with you . He could have done that ... Oh my God, that girl is a fool !!! And a gentleman like you can usually grant his request !!! "

" You know ... "

" There's funding in your name for Auntie's treatment, and she asked me to keep this a secret from Aunt Claire . The funds were too large if only to pay for his services to accompany lunch or dinner as he used to do . He sold himself to you . Am I right ??! "

Zahid was silent, he lowered his head with his eyes closed . Guilt felt more and more tormenting him .

" Safa always sacrificed himself for others . He also sacrificed for a boy . At that time we were playing ball on the field next to the apartment . And our ball was crushed by the car the boy was riding in . One of us threw him a stone but Safa stopped him until his head was torn and got seven stitches "

" Apaaa .. she ... "cloak Zahid does not believe .

" Nobody knows who the boy is, it seems like his identity is indeed very protected . Auntie also forbade us to bring up the incident . He said it was about a person's good name and we have to appreciate it . After the incident Bibi banned us from playing in the apartment area again on the grounds of our safety and security "

" Oh my God .. he's "
