Magic Key
PART 27 - THE POWER OF LOVE, RIGHT?
"Za-Zaki?" I closed my mouth, half in disbelief that Zaki was awake.
"You are awake? Are you really awake, Zak? I-I-I'm not dreaming anymore, am I?" I said.
Zaki got off the bed, he approached me.
No!
He's nudging my forehead.
"Www." My ringis while rubbing my sore forehead.
"illness?" Zaki asked not to feel guilty.
"Hurt, Zaki." Narrator.
"That means you're no longer dreaming." Said Zaki again.
Also true. I'm not dreaming. It´s real. In reality Zaki was awake and now he was standing in front of me.
Instantly I hugged Zaki. Zaki immediately returned my embrace. We hugged each other tightly, as if we didn't want to be apart anymore.
I sobbed in Zaki's arms. I'm glad Zaki's awake. Really, I was so happy that my chest was so tight because it was happy and my tears just flowed.
Zaki gently rubbed my back, still not letting go of his embrace.
"Damn! I think I'll be the one to be forgotten after this." Bumpat Zian who knows since when he was here.
We both took off hugs, I quickly wiped my tears.
"Zian." Narrator. He must be insinuating us.
Zian immediately drew closer to Zaki, and they instantly drew distance from each other.
"Damn it! I almost lost half my life." Bump Zian by hugging his twin brother.
"I still haven't calmed down leaving you stupid alone." Reply Zaki.
"Shit! You're too demeaning to me" Zian pushed back Zaki's body, making them slip out of the embrace.
"You learned those swear words while I slept?" Zaki raised one eyebrow.
"I'm sorry, okay?"
"By the way, are you cooking again? I smell a charade." Said Zaki.
"Lasagna!" Zian returned to the kitchen in a storm. After that Zaki and I followed Zian with laughter from us.
We reached the kitchen when Zian had already removed the lasagna pan from the oven. The food he made turned brownish-black due to the charred.
"Gdget.." I don't intend to laugh at Zian, but it does look funny.
"Don't laugh! This is also because of you guys." Tuke Zian.
"Why because of us?" Reply asked.
"Yes! I heard you yell Zaki's name, so I rushed there."
"What's my fault?" Zaki asked confusedly.
"Of course it's wrong. Why sleep does not wake up, make it difficult for people." Zian Cibir.
"Just because you guys got my masterpiece ruined." Zian said dramatically.
"OK-okay I'm sorry. But the food is already gosong gini, what do we want to eat dong?" My toot.
"Borrow a cell phone." Zaki put his hand on Zian.
Zian gave her his cell phone without asking anything.
Zaki received the phone, fiddled for a while and then he returned it to Zian.
"I ordered food. We'll wait for the food to be delivered." Said Zaki.
Yeah, that's Zaki. His actions are always right. In addition, he has a high sense of optimism. I'm pretty sure that he'll wake up sooner or later. And look, he's really up now.
Thankfully, Zaki is now among us again. I have some questions for him, but for now it's better to let him rest first. Don't we still have plenty of time to chat?

"Hey, Mate. Is sleep so much fun for you? Why are you waking up now?" Ask Zian sarcasm. We are enjoying the lasagna that Zaki ordered. Zaki deliberately ordered the same food that Zian made.
"I'm testing."
"Testing what?"
"Testing your concern for me." Reply Zaki with a slanted smile.
Zian gawked for a while.
"You're crazy!" Tukas Zian did not relax. Zaki simply replied with a chuckle.
"Zak, are you all right? Is anyone sick?" I asked to interrupt their conversation.
Zaki stopped the activity for a moment. He sighed before replying, "There are some parts that are painful but not so serious. I can still handle it."
"I'm afraid the doctor can't find where my pain lies." Said Zaki again.
"Because it seems like this pain I feel is without any injuries. It's not bleeding, maybe?"
"So seriously there's such a thing?" I don't understand.
"Or do you have to take a seven-figure flower bath so that the demons in your body run away?" Cibir Zian looked annoyed.
"Why should there be things I can't understand? How can I help if I don't understand myself?" Zian.
I watched Zian. Zian looked unsettled, visible from his erratic eye movements. Is he nervous, or is he nervous?
"I... I'm afraid you suddenly go to sleep and don't wake up again." Said Zian weakly.
Oh, he's showing concern for Zaki, isn't he? I smiled at their interaction.
"If you're afraid I won't wake up again, then I won't sleep." Reply Zaki lightly.
"You can sleep, but maybe I'll wake you up once every hour." Said Zian.
"Yes-yes-yes, it's up to you." Reply Zaki.
"By the way, I was surprised to see you were there too, Ay." Said Zaki. He returned to scooping his food. Now I stop doing my eating.
"What is that creature that often disturbs your sleep?" Ask Zaki.
"Yes." Yeah." Repasku.
Zaki nodded in understanding. While Zian did not ask much because I had previously told Zian about the creature.
"I feel like there's something I want to show us, so we can get there, Zak. Do you think so too?" My toot.
Zaki seemed to be thinking, drawn from a frown on his forehead.
"Can be. But what?" Ask Zaki.
"I don't know either." My reply.
"Ah yeah, you said you wanted to see my parents, right?" Ask Zaki.
"D-yes." Nervous reply. I don't know why I'm nervous about talking about their parents.
"Zak!" Zian was determined but was immediately rewarded with a sharp look from Zaki. Zian locked his mouth.
"Picture frame in that room. They're my parents."
"I knew. They're beautiful and handsome. They look good."
"They're the greatest people in my life." Said Zaki.
"I believe they're great people. I've been thinking that way since I met you guys." My reply expressed my opinion.
After that Zian put his cutlery and he leaned his back on the chair not to forget the breath coming out of his mouth.
What was? What's wrong? Why did Zian suddenly seem strange like this?
"When the time is right, I'll take you to meet them." Said Zaki again.
"Yes." Yeah."
"Possibly not now. You're patient."
"Yes." Yeah."
After that there was silence.
"Your friends must be worried about you, right? What are their comments after you wake up?" Zaki's question has already shifted the topic again. He is very good at switching topics.
"Nothing. They just said I fainted for three days. And yes, I was in the hospital for those three days."
"You're not the real story, are you?"
"No way, they can just run away from there."
"Hopefully nothing like this will happen again. I'm a fool for not being able to help you wake up." Chirp Zian.
"Yes. I really hope this won't happen again." Zaki said chimed.
"Oh maybe I'll find Ayri if you sleep like that again. Because for three days I woke you up but there was no result. While Ayri, not yet half a day can make you wake up.
"That's the power of love." Cetus Zaki's.
"Love's cowardice? What did Fara say was true?" Mumamku.
"What what what, Ay?" Ask Zian.
"Ah, no papa, no papa." My reply was not calm.
"Emm.. What does the power of love mean?" I unconsciously asked that question. I immediately cursed at the question that came out of my mouth.
"The power of love is yes, I love you."
