A - 43

Since being fired from the cafe owned by Arfi, the three teenagers returned to their daily activities. Spending time with many tasks piles up. Alvi could have made them work in one of Mr. Salim's businesses, but his two friends did not want to trouble Alvi anymore.

After college, Alvi gets together with her male friends. Preparing in their basecamp for the race, this is how Alvi gets a lot of money without having to ask his family.

"Vi" said an opponent.

"What's? Afraid? Back out!!"

"Loe's getting married? The ring in Loe's hand"

"Yes, why?"

"Gue first dong, I think you're still the same jerk guy"

Alvi did not care what the young man said. He walked to his bike and prepared to start the race. All the riders are ready on their bikes. Waiting for a warning from the host who was ready at his place.

Before starting, the race host once again reminded to check the completeness. After everything was sorted out, the counting cue started to sound.

Bbrvm... Bbruum...

"One, two, threea." the flag was dropped as the start of the race. In that vast racecourse, spectators began to craze looking forward to who would be the winner.

It looks so fierce to overtake each other on the racecourse. Cheers for the sake of cheers are getting crazier as the time approaches the end of the race. Alvi's name is increasingly heard by many viewers. In just seconds, the winner was determined, Alvi Ardi Salim.

The opponents could only complain of being annoyed, it was always the girl winning to be the champion.

Alvi walked lightly towards her friends, she felt so happy to win this race. He met with the committee to discuss the prize. After a long conversation, finally the gift was sent to the account of Alvi, thirty million, it was three times than usual.

"Vi, there's a phone call, but there's no name" shouted one of Alvi's friends.

The girl ran over and picked up her phone, "Hello, who am I talking to?"

Silent for a moment, Alvi was listening to her interlocutor explain at length. His forehead was wrinkled, there was a nervousness within him and also worry about something.

"Is this really true? Or scam? He said Arfi was an accident" Alvi explained to her friends.

"Try loe phone Kak Arfi" suggested one of Alvi's friends.

"Not lifted"

"Call Brother Bani or Oddy, whoever you know"

Long enough Alvi tried to call, but no one answered him. Alvi's heart became more and more unsettled, he went to his bike. Drive to the place shown in the short message. But Alvi is not alone, all her friends are following her from behind. With high speed, Alvi drove his motorbike, winding the highway so smoothly. Until his friends are left far behind, but they can still see Alvi there.

Alvi's friends felt strange, the road they passed was foreign. It's getting quieter at the end of town, there's no way there's a big hospital. Only empty land was visible around the streets.

Bruuua.....

"Alviiiiiii" cried the friends of Alvi. This is something they never imagined. They dropped their original motorbike and ran as fast as possible to approach Alvi who bounced with his motorbike. The driver of the truck drove away from the scene.

It's a big collision, they know this right on purpose. Because this has happened before, when Alvi sat on the bench of High School. He has always been the target of business competitors Mr. Salim and Ardi, but this time more extreme and has exceeded the limit.

After the ambulance arrived, they followed the ambulance to the hospital. As he continued to pray Alvi would be fine. Their tears even flowed to see his best friend lying helpless. Arriving at the hospital, Alvi was immediately taken to the ICU room. Once again Alvi's friends are busy contacting all Alvi's relatives.

Mr. Salim who was out of town immediately took the fastest flight to Surabaya. Likewise with Ardi who is still in Jakarta directly back to Surabaya. Bani, Oddy, Arfi, Alvi's in-laws even Oddy's two parents go to the hospital as fast as they can. Some friends Alvi also came there to make the hospital in the visitors.

"Alvi why? Dika, Erik, Rian, Irfan, Denta!!" sentak Bani is worried.

The five young men just silently looked at the ICu room with their cries. They could not say anything and only showed five videos recorded on their motorcycle cameras. Instantly the three young men who had just arrived were sitting helplessly. Arfi runs to take ablution and the Qur'an. He held a prayer mat and read it in front of the ICU room, hoping Alvi would hear it. His tears also flowed.

Not long after, both Arfi and Pak Kyai's parents arrived. Mr. Kyai asked Alvi's friends to go home so as not to meet the hospital. He said he would inform them all if Alvi had regained consciousness later.

Irfan and Denta, disband Alvi's friends. While Erik, Dika and Rian have to deal with Pak Kyai.

"Is this the same as it used to be?" Ask Mr. Kyai without further ado.

"We don't know sir, Alvi got a phone call he said Kak Arfi accident. He hesitated, but eventually went to the address given. We followed him and the truck drove very fast towards Alvi. It looks like it's the same as it used to be sir" explained Rian.

Mr. Kyai nodded, asking the three young men as well as Irfan and Denta to see a doctor. Terrible events for teenagers, he was afraid will affect their mental. Moreover, this is not the first time for Erik, Dika and Rian who are indeed Alvi's friends since High School.

A few hours later, the doctor came out of the ICU. He approached Mr. Kyai and his two Arfi parents.

"The conditions are very critical, we've done our best. We just wait, hopefully Alvi quickly realized" explained the doctor then left the Alvi family.

"Mother, is my wife going to be okay? What do I have to do, Mother?" Tanya Arfi was so dazed. Bani and Oddy don't even have the energy to let out their tears.

"Of course Arfi, my grandson will be fine. She is the granddaughter of the powerful Mr. Salim" replied the recently arrived Mr. Salim. He was with a couple of lawyers and police.

"Alvi again Salim's victim. What is this really about?"

"Sir Kyai, I know it's my fault. I will not forgive them this time. Even if I could, I'd finish them all off"

"Saliim!!!"

"What's my fault, Mr. Kyai? I tried to change myself, but the enemy always came to test my patience. Alvi always gets hurt because of me"

Mr. Kyai patted Salim on the shoulder, he said goodbye and will conduct a study at the boarding school for Alvi's recovery. Salim invites all five friends of Alvi who are witnesses to meet lawyers and police, accompanied by Hashim.

Before leaving, Mr. Salim asked his three grandchildren to return to their KKN place.

"But Kek, I want to take care of Alvi" said Bani.

"Alvi will be sad if you spend more time there. Go and finish your job and come back"

"Mr Salim is right, go. Mother will keep Alvi here" persuaded Maya with affection.

The final decision, they all agreed to return. But before leaving, Arfi looked at his wife who was lying on the bed with a lot of tools. She said, "I will always wait for you to come back, baby. I love you so much Alvi"
