Khay returns to the hospital to see Amara. He looked at his mother who was still awake with the hand of Khania.
There was envy that intrigued Khay when she saw her mother was so anxious about her brother's condition. Khay recalls being injured by a sharp object carried by a suspect in his left abdomen. His mother was worried, but not as anxious as this. Though the injury suffered by Khay is also quite severe and almost hit the heart.
Khay only sighed harshly when he remembered about it. Ray approached Khay who was still silent and reluctant to go into Khania's nursery.
"Khay, let's have dinner first. Since you haven't eaten anything." take Ray. "All right now, we're packing food for your mother. He hasn't eaten since lunch either."
Khay just nodded. And follow Ray's footsteps. Ray knows that Khay's mood is bad right now. He doesn't want to talk much anymore. His soul and body are also tired to help Khay, his best friend.
They headed for the tent food stall near the hospital. Fortunately Khay is not a picky-eating type. His life that is used to being independent does not let him indulge in his parents or others. Really the kind of tough woman Ray likes. Unfortunately, their friendship that has been running for seven years, will remain a friendship without having to be in the frills of love.
Yes, although sometimes Ray wants something more with their relationship, but seeing Khay's indifferent attitude, does not allow himself to go further than this.
"Khay, eat first! Don't think about anything else! If you want this case to meet a bright spot, you need to have the energy to get your brain working properly."
"Ck, you're this! Yeah, fine. When can I refuse you, huh! I have to find out what happened to Kak Khania. Mr. Ahmad said he found my brother wounded on the side of a road away from the residential area. Do you think..." Khay deliberately hangs his sentence to be continued by Ray.
"Once, we eat first! My brain can't work properly if my stomach isn't full." Ray said casually while smiling.
"Currently, don't be so handsome!"
"I'm handsome, Khay. You're the only one who never knows!"
Khay pursed his lips.

After dinner, Khay returned to Khania's room and gave a packet of food to her mother.
"Mother, eat first. From noon I haven't eaten anything." Khay said.
"Mother is not hungry." replied Amara Lirih.
"Mother! Do you think you'd be happy to see a mother like this? I'll be sad, mom. Please listen to Khay just this once!" Khay's voice began to rise.
Amara finally obeyed Khay's orders. Khay approached Khania's bed and looked at her unconscious brother. The doctor said Khania was in a coma. But a little stimulation of anything can certainly be felt.
Khay sat beside Khania's bed and started whispering something in her brother's ear.
"Sister... It's me, Khay. You can hear me, right? Quickly awake! Or I'll be mad at you. You know what if I get angry. Only you can calm me down. Sis... You said when you came home you'd take me to play at the amusement park. We will ride the rides that are now trending among young people. But why...have you come home in this state? You're such a bitch!" No clear circles glide across Khay's smooth cheeks. He could no longer speak and ran out of Khania's room.
Ray, who saw Khay running, followed him. He hugged his friend and stroked his back. But whatever the power, he can't do that. He was afraid Khay would get angry.
But there's no harm in sympathizing as a friend? Ray ventured closer to Khay and grabbed Khay's body in his arms. A friend's embrace to his grieving friend.
Khay receives Ray's embrace and cries in Ray's field chest.
One word. Warm. Khay felt a warmth he had not had for a long time. Ever since her father died, there was no place for her to lean. Khay is closer to his father. Khania was closer to Amara.
"Take out all your grief, Khay. I was right here. There's always whenever you need me..."
Ray nodded. They walked back to Khania's room.
"Mother? Why are you sitting outside?" asked Khay who saw Amara sitting on the bench in front of the room.
"Khai... There's something I want to tell you." said Amara, looking at Khay.
Khay approached his mother and sat down next to her. "What's up, ma'am?"
"Actually..." Amara hung up her sentence.
Khay held his mother's hand.
"Actually your brother... Her... Have a lover..."
"What?!?" Khay rounded his eyes, and so did Ray.
"They've been in touch for two years" continued Amara.
Khay shut his mouth in disbelief.
"Who's the guy's name, ma'am?" ask Khay.
"Name Rakha. He owns the foundation where Khania works."
Khay felt her heart flinch.
"alright. Thank you for telling me. Mom just calm down! Whatever happens I'll find out who's behind Khania's misfortune."
"Thank you, son. Sorry I didn't tell you this."
Khay rubbed his mother's back slowly. "Yes, mom is fine. I'd better go home. Let Khay take care of it here."
Khay codes Ray to drive his mother.
"If there's anything, I'll call you right away." continued Khay.
Amara nodded. Then go with Ray.
"Come, Mom. Khay, I'll go home first. Call me if anything happens." said Ray.
Khay nodded, then went into Khania's room. He saw that the brother who was always smiling was now struggling between life and death.
I don't know when Khay's beautiful smile will be able to see again.
"Sister... I'm gonna find out who did this to you. I promise!" muttered Khay with determination and clenched hands.
