"Darling..are you sleeping?". Ara called out as she continued to knock on Kirei's room door. But since then there has been no response from his son.
"Not come out yet?". Dev's voice made Ara turn her head and shook weakly. It had been almost 3 hours Kirei locked himself in his room after returning from school earlier, or rather after visiting Daniel's house. Even until Dev came home Kirei still did not come out.
Everyone was waiting for dinner together. Whether by chance or it was planned, Dira and Putri and her children and husband were waiting in the dining room, except Bian who had not returned.
"Honey..The kirei? Open the door, son". Dev knocked on the door a little hard.
"Find the spare key bun". Dev's orders make Ara quickly search for the spare key she usually keeps at the desk drawer near Kirei's room.
"There's no yah.." Ara was getting panicked. Could it be Kirei who took it.
"Still the balloons out, too, bun?". This time Arka and Dirga went up to see his cousin. He heard the story from Alma. Arka is very angry at Daniel, although he does not know what is the cause of the young man not going to school, but at least the man can tell Kirei by message or maybe call him.
The two old men only shook their heads weakly answering Arka's question.
"Let the Ark wake up. Same dad wait at the table to eat". Dev and Ara decide to leave his daughter's room, and leave the task of persuading Kirei to the two young men.
"Ki.open! I know you're sleeping. If you want to open, I break this door to Dirga". Threatening Arka bangs on Kirei's bedroom door.
"Gue itung nyampe three if you open it too, I actually ancurin door lo room!". Shouted Arka again.
"Gue wants to bang himself first. I'm kaga laper. I just want to sleep". I heard the answer from within. Although slowly but Arka and Dirga can still hear it.
"Lo kaga kasian ama buna's dad? Let's get out the spit!". This time Dirga who is impatient to see his cousin like he has no purpose in life.
"Gue doesn't want Ga". Sahut Kirei made the two of them exhale violently.
"Open up or we'll break down!". Said Arka firmly.
Inside the room, Kirei let out a long sigh. Both of his cousins are reckless when it comes to him. They would definitely completely smash the door of his room if he did not open it.
Gontai Kirei walked towards the door, turned the key and opened it slowly.
"Astagfirullah". Strangled Dirga and Arka at the same time when looking at Kirei's pale face with puffy, flushed eyes. Kirei had already taken a shower and changed his clothes, but due to crying for too long and had not eaten since morning, it looked so awful.
"Lo Kirei's? Not a living corpse, is it?". Chirps Arka who immediately got a blow on her head.
"It's not time to be joking!". Ketus Dirga's.
"Let's get off! Everyone is waiting!". Dirga was about to withdraw Kirei's hand, but was immediately released by the girl.
"Gue kaga laper Ga". Kirei replied, turning around to go into his room again.
"Don't get rich, Ki. Not very lo". Cibir Arka made Kirei turn his head sharply and then continue his steps.
"Don't nyampe me carry down deh lo". Dirga like to run out of patience to face a broken hearted girl in front of him.
"Gue again don't want to make a fuss ama lo both. Shuh.shuh, on go sono". Kirei's voice was getting weaker. Naturally, all day he has not eaten anything.
"Dragon, you need to torture yourself. Who you think belom certainly inget lo". Arka was about to carry Kirei's body, but he had not yet reached where Kirei stood, the girl was already dazed and almost collapsed to the ground if Arka did not quickly catch him.
"Ah elah.elo I love you ndablek, ngeyel mulu". Grumbled Arka while lifting Kirei's body.
"Ready car Ga. We'll take him to the hospital". Arka's orders panicked.
Dirga immediately ran down the stairs without saying anything, making the elders who saw him stand with astonished gazes. Not long after, Arka also went down. But what made all eyes bulge was Kirei who was held by Arka in a fainting state.
"Kirei!!". Screaming everyone at the same time.
"Obviously later, we'll take Kirei to the hospital first". Arka precedes everyone who is ready to ask her questions.
_______
"How's my daughter doc?". Dev and Ara asked simultaneously.
The doctor smiled kindly in response to the couple who looked so worried.
"Miss Kirei is fine. His body is just tired and weak because there is no food intake into his body and it seems like a lot of things are thought to cause stress". Clearly the doctor made Ara and Dev sigh in relief.
"Where's the condition? Why is it rich gini Ra? Kaga's been told that nyampe's kid could pass out?". The new Bian immediately stormed his sister with various questions.
"So ketchup only". Answer Ara.
"We will see the patient's condition, if it is stable, Miss Kirei can be taken home". The doctor then resigned to leave the Kirei family.
"What exactly is the same kid? It's not usually that rich kid Ra". Ask the Princess suspiciously.
"Magically broken heart doi mi". Arka answered casually, making all the old men there look at her suspiciously.
"Breaked heart?". Beo everyone made Arka instantly aware of his words that were too relaxed.
"Clearly with dad". Dev's orders are firm.
Arka told him what he knew from Alma, but no one knew what made Kirei come to this. Since returning from Daniel's house, Kirei has not spoken to anyone.
While the others were waiting for Kirei outside, Alma faithfully accompanied Kirei inside the IGD room.
"Ki..." Alma smiled relievedly seeing Kirei open his eyes.
"At the hospital. Drink first". Alma helped Kirei wake up and helped him drink the warm water provided.
"Is it better?". Alma asked softly which answered a nod of the head by Kirei.
Alma clasped his good friend's hand, making Kirei look back at Alma and then smile thinly. Kirei realized his stupidity this time had already made everyone worry about him.
"Gue is fine Al". Kirei smiled to calm Alma down.
"You have everyone who loves you Ki.don't hesitate to share with me ya". Alma smiled at Kirei, hoping that the girl would share the painful things with him in order to be more relieved. Kirei smiled faintly, but the clear liquid that he had been trying to endure had finally escaped also wet his cheeks.
"Sick Al.it hurts a lot here". Kirei pointed at d*** with his index finger, emphasizing his finger there.
"Why he must come if only for me Al. Why did he say love was gone". Kirei cried in Alma's arms which could only stroke Kirei's trembling back.
"Daniel Al's..Daniel". Kirei seemed difficult just to remember what he heard from the security guard at Daniel's house earlier.
"Sstt.didah dilujutin if too heavy Ki". Alma tightened her embrace, hoping to be Kirei's backrest during a fragile time like this.
"Daniel's..Daniel has Al's future wife". Kirei's words successfully made Alma stop his movement stroking Kirei's back. But Alma preferred to be quiet and did not ask Kirei's intentions. The girl again stroked Kirei's back and repeatedly said a calm word.

"Rest yes.buna stay first". Ara stroked the princess's head just her wayang this time she saw so fragile.
"Thank you bun.maafin Kirei makes buna same dad worried". Kirei really felt guilty making all his family panic.
"No problem, honey. What matters now is that you're okay.seven a while". Ara left Kirei alone. His condition had gotten much better after sharing the story with Alma.
Dev and Ara had asked Kirei for hospitalization, but Kirei insisted on going home. Finally, despite being forced to both his parents grant his wish.
"He's sleeping?". Dev asked when he saw his wife walking down the stairs.
"Not yet.but maybe now you're asleep". Ara let out a long sigh, preparing to hear what Alma was going to tell her. It was not that Alma could not keep a secret, but both of Kirei's parents had to know what caused his son like this. After all Kirei did not ask Alma to keep it a secret from anyone.
"What's the matter with Daniel, Al? Why did it come to this?". Ara's question broke the silence.
Alma let out a long sigh then told her what Kirei told her earlier in the hospital.
"Daniel has a wife?". Ara asked in disbelief at her hearing.
"Alma didn't know for sure, but Kirei said Daniel had a future wife. That's what made Kirei shocked, because previously Daniel had just said love with Kirei". Alma's voice weakened at the end of her sentence.
"Had to get him like this". Muttered Ara who knew how happy Kirei was close to Daniel.
"It's only natural that he's disappointed, he's only recently close to a man. Like again unfortunately continue to be pelted to the bottom of the abyss. Luckily the man had moved, if I hadn't done it, boy!". Said Dira who was immediately approved by the people around him except Ara and Dev who were just daydreaming about the princess only wayangnya.
"Let him first.don't ask anything. He should focus on his exam as well". Now Dev spoke up after just being a listener.
"Buna..can Alma temenin Kirei in her room??". Ask Alma carefully.
Ara and Dev smiled and nodded their heads.
"Of course I can love..Kirei must be in need of you right now". Alma's smile was perfect. He left the living room and climbed up the stairs to Kirei's room.
"Again also asked Kirei ya bun?". Arka spirit. Just as he was about to get up, his collar had already been pulled by Dirga.
"You need to find a chance to bang. Kirei is getting more snacky if there's a lo deket him". Sinis Dirga who immediately made Arka glare.
"It's like that's the mouth of talking". Grievance Ark.
"Do not bother you, bang. Mami sentil long your kidneys". The Princess' speech made everyone chuckle, except Arka who put on a sour face.
"You pedekate also look at the sikon bang, kaga origin of playing trabas aja lo". Dirga's ejek was accompanied by an annoying smile in Arka's eyes.
*****
It had been a week since Kirei fainted, the girl had returned as cheerful as ever in front of her parents, but often Ara saw her daydreaming. And to be sure his attitude was getting colder to outsiders, Kirei really did not allow any stranger into his life.
"Eat yuk Ki.laper". Alma patted her stomach in front of Kirei.
"First then. I'm going to the toilet first". Alma nodded and was about to leave Kirei, but then turned around again.
"Do you want to go on a dipesenin??". Ask Alma
"Soto same iced orange ya". Replied Kirei enthusiastically. Alma gave a thumbs up to Kirei in response. He left Kirei alone in the class.
As Kirei walked towards the toilet, he accidentally hit a middle-aged woman who was sweeping the floor. Looks like the school janitor.
"Sorry mom, I didn't intentionally. Is mom okay?". Kirei scanned the woman from head to toe to make sure that the person he hit was okay.
"Ah.iya non. I'm doing fine". Answer's friendly.
"Then, excuse me for non". The mother immediately left without waiting for Kirei to answer. Kirei sniffed his shoulders and then continued his journey to the toilet.
"You are too happy. What if I take away your happiness". The woman Kirei had just hit turned around and stared hatefully at Kirei's back.
I don't know what made him hate Kirei so much, and who was that woman?
"Wait for your destruction, Kinara". The woman smiled cunningly then continued her work of sweeping the floor.
