Because you've become like this, de, sorry. A promise will find out who has dared to try to hurt you. You have to be strong, you won't give up right? you're gonna help out, too, right? drrrrt Meera's phone vibrated, incoming messages.


From: King


We met, now in our house.


To: King


There's no house, it's your house. I'm at the police station.


From: King


I'm up front, don't forget to put your hat on.


"Okay sir, I'll excuse you. I still need your help"


"We're ready to help mom anytime"


Sure enough the King was in front of the police station, Meera wearing a hat and scarf that he had prepared to cover part of his face, he did not want anyone to see him with the King outside working hours.


Arriving at the second house of the King, two large-bodied bodyguards were waiting. The king took Meera to a room of size large enough, there was a man around the age of 40s was curled up on a mattress, seeing the arrival of the King and Meera the man immediately sat down and looked down lethargic. His face was bruised, he must have finished getting the 'lesson' from the King.


"I'm sorry ma'am" the man said, handing Meer his account book and smartphone.


Meera carefully checked every transaction listed on the bank account book and incoming messages on the man's cellphone in front of him.


"No ma'am, I promise I'm not going anywhere. I don't want to learn from Mr. King anymore" the man replied trying to convince Meera. Meera glared at the King. The king who got a sharp look from Meera became misbehaved.


"Aahh I just remembered, I have to meet someone" The king left just like that.


Satisfied to interrogate the man, Meera returned to the hospital. Previously he had contacted Miya and Tiwi to take Farhan and Hana to the hospital. Lita is still unconscious, but according to the doctor, Lita's condition is much better.


The day began at night, although it was not crying, sadness and worry were clearly visible on his mother's face. They haven't told Danang's father about this, they don't want me to worry. Meera asks Tiwi and Miya to stay overnight to look after the twins, she can't go home yet, she wants to be the first to see Lita once her sister wakes up. He also asked Mama Mila to go home, but whether she did not want to, he insisted on wanting to see firsthand Lita's condition.


At almost midnight, she fell asleep in Meera's lap. Meera is confused by her own in-laws behavior, Papa Ardi is also still in the hospital, instead of accompanying her husband, Mama Mila is busy pacing back and forth in front of Lita's room door.


"Well, the doctor said Lita's better, mama's sitting here" Meera patted the empty spot beside her. But Mila's mother refused.


The doctor came to check Lita's progress, not fifteen minutes, the doctor came out to give good news, Lita Siuman. Hearing the news the mother immediately woke up, crowding the doctor with many questions about the latest condition of her youngest child.


"Mother's son is fine, he wants to meet his sister. But, for a while I only allow the patient to meet his brother, it is also on condition that the patient is not too much to talk to first. Tomorrow I can see the patient" explained the doctor in a friendly manner.


"Good doc. Mom, mah, I met ya first, you guys wait here" mom and mom Mila nodded, they sat down while unceasingly giving thanks.


Lita smiled when she saw her brother coming, she had thought that Meera already hated him for misunderstanding it, it was not. Meera clasped her sister's hand, stroking her bluish-looking neck. Lita almost cried, but Meera shook her head.


"You can't cry. Sorry I can't take care of you. You want to help teteh?" Lita nodded. Meera asks Lita to tell her the real events, with Lita sobbing and starting to tell her stories.


"Listen, you've already arrested the person who hurt you, you also know who told them to, now just ask you not to tell anyone, including the police, if anyone forces you to tell a story tell me" Lita nodded. Meera hugged her only sister.
