My eyes opened slowly. He looks glare with the light exposure. Still confused about the situation around him. This isn't his room. The rooms now are white everywhere. Ave was still dizzy in his head.

"O Allah, have you realized, Nduk?" tanya from her mother distracted her for a moment.

"Yes Gusti Allah mature suwun. Cah Ayu wes realized," continued Yaya eyang see his favorite grandson.

"What happened to Ave, Mom?" Throw Ave when he woke up from his consciousness.

"Sir, you've been sleeping for three days. I'm scared, Nduk. I'm afraid I can't see you anymore." The crying Ambar broke.

"Check, Cah Ayu, by the way" said Eyang Yaya. [Don't talk like that, Cah Ayu ]

"Ambar is afraid, sir. It's been three days since Ave's been unconscious." Pilu Ambar saw his son lying in a coma for three days.

"Mom, where's Salim?"

"Same salim your father and Jaka's father will be here any minute. Patience, yes," said Ambar, standing up and taking a glass of water.

"Mom, what used to be Ave couldn't see?" A sudden question from Ave made Ambar drop the glass he was holding.

Eyang Yaya did not move towards the door.

"What are you talking about, Nduk?" Ambar said agitatedly.

"Is it true that Ave's eyes were a gift from his mother Salim?"

Ambar looks panicked. He turned his body to face Eyang Yaya giving an answer.

"Why are you all quiet? Is it true what Ave said, ma'am?" Ave said curiously.

"Mom, we better talk to Ave honestly this time," said Brata suddenly entered who was followed by Salim and his father.

"But Mas---." Resist Ambar didn't want Ave to know.

"I don't want Ave to know the truth. It was enough that he had an unhealthy heart. I don't want to burden him" Ambar said.

"Mbak Ambar maybe it's time for Ave to know the truth" Jaka said during their talks.

Eyang Yaya nodded.

"Mom, Ave wants to know what's going on?" Pinta Ave.

Ambar looked at his little daughter with sadness.

"alright. Ambar will let Ave know the truth." Ambar finally.

"Let Salim and I say it, Ambar." Pinta Jaka is asserted by all of them.

Salim's Pov

"When Ave was four months old. Ave can't see. Doctors diagnosed Ave with blindness, but according to doctors, Ave was able to receive an eye donor. When Ave is two years old, Ave can see again. Until one day Ave was five years old. Ave fell from the top of the tree. Doctors were forced to find another donor eye for Ave because Ave's eye hit a rock." Dad paused for a moment to sigh.

"Why doesn't Ave remember Jaka's father?" Ave looks confused.

"Let's finish the story first huh?" Prevent dad from calming Ave down.

"Salim's mother was sick. Salim's mother had terminal cancer that could not be treated. One day Salim's mother asked him to give her eyes to you, son. He really wants you to see the world again and we owe it to Eyang Yaya who always helps us. Salim's mother's life was not saved. Finally the doctor operated on your eyes again and now you can see again" he said, silent for a moment.

"Regarding Ave does not remember the incident because Ave was a child at that time," continued the father while holding Ave's hand.

"Didn't Salim and Dad hate Ave?" ask Ave while looking at me.

"No, Son. Why do we hate you?" Said father gently.

"Because mom died of Ave?"

Dad chuckled at Ave's words.

"Son, it's fate. We should be thanking your family."

Ave smiled sweetly in front of dad and dad turned his head towards me. Showing a smile.

"Dad stay first, yeah. Talk to Salim. Three days Ave worried Salim," said the father and left us.

"How did Salim find Ave?"

"That's a lot of spies, you know." I'm bragging.

"Are you and your mom not mad at Salim?" He said slowly while lowering his head.

"They were angry with Salim even until Yaya's eyes hit Salim." I'm kidding a little.

"really? Let Ave get angry with them later," he said enthusiastically.

I laughed hearing that.

"Kok Salim laughed? Ave was wrong?" His face showed an innocent face.

"They were not angry with Salim. Neither did he hit Salim."

"I'm sorry Salim." I just chuckle.

"Salim, ..."Call slowly.

"Well, what's up, Ve?"

"I'm sorry Ave, huh?"

"For what?" I saw him wonder at talking like that.

"Because Ave took Salim's eyes."

I would love to laugh at him but seeing his innocent face makes me stop doing it.

I just ruffled her hair.

"Salim instead thanked mom because Salim could still see the mother in Ave's eyes and the mother was looking after Ave all this time." I gave him understanding.

He began to shed his tears.

"Have not been a bad boy. The future heir of Jayanatra is a whiny girl." I tease.

Ave hugged me tightly.

"Thank you for helping Ave out this whole time. Ave dear Salim."

I smile at the smile. "Salim is also dear to Ave." I continued by stroking her hair.

Ave's Pov

Three days made my family worried because I never woke up from sleep. According to Dad, Mom and Salim did not stop taking care of me, especially Mother who cried every day. Today I am allowed to go home. I really miss home.

I never remembered a childhood event that caused both eyes to receive a donor. Salim found out when Salim was fifteen years old. For several years Jaka's father hid the truth from Salim.

I am very grateful to his mother Salim for being so sincere and willing to donate her eyes to me. It's a shame he's gone.

If you remember the events of that time when Dimas whispered into the ear. I was in shock and my heart was beating.

"Both your eyes are not yours, but Salim's mother's."

"You didn't see a blind alias before, miss."

"Ashh ....."I lay my head on the pillow.

"My darling avelien." Shouted the famous school queen duo.

"Lu ain't nothing, are you?" Flocked Ayu with all sorts of questions.

"You're healthy, aren't you, Vel?"Sahut Rani with her cry. And don't forget he must have picked up the fried banana of Eyang Yaya in front.

"Ave is fine." I answered him casually even though his head was still dizzy.

"How did Vel get to Salim call you?" Cerocos Ayu enthusiastically. Rani just nodded and was engrossed in her chocolate banana.

"Salim knows where Ave was taken. Then Salim followed there deh," I said as I saw the endless Rani eating.

Realize his behavior is noticed. He was even grinning. My unique friends.

"Let's tell the same story we dong Vel until you passed out that three days?" ask Ayu to know.

"Yes Vel. We want to know this" said Rani with her mouth still filled with her favorite Doritos chips.

"Ye elu Ran's. Eat from his work. Shut your mouth," interrupted Ayu who was upset to see Rani's behavior.

I responded to them just smiling looking at their endless behavior.

Finally I told him how Salim found me, Kang Rustam who helped me and I who was unconscious for three days.

"So how's the fate of those two congegs?" ask Ayu while taking the chips on Rani's lap. Rani hit his hand.

"Yes, you know for yourself, they don't admit what they did. They pretended to help me because someone kidnapped me."

"Surely they are helped by their rich bokap. Yes money can buy law," said Ayu rather emotionally.

"Not to think about it. Come on Ave take you guys to lunch here." I took them out of the room to the kitchen.

As I headed for the kitchen close to the front porch. I saw Eyang Yaya looking for his fried banana which Rani ate without a permit. Rani can't if she doesn't see food.

"Sum, ning endi my brown banana?" Finally Eyang called Mbok Sum.

I just patted the jidat. Rani ran straight to the kitchen.

I am really happy with my life now. I can see the people I love.

"Thank God for this gift." I'm ingrained.

Is finished?

No already. This story is not over.

There are still many obstacles that make Ave and Salim work together to overcome the obstacles that exist.

Stay tuned for this story. Thank you for your support of my story.
