To Say Thank You

Not giving up until there, Axel returned to look for Ciya. While thinking in the courtyard of Ciya's house earlier, suddenly Daania was in her head.

Yeah, and now Axel's in front of Daania's house.

“Daan, Daania?!” Axel knocked on Daania's door. Although impressed impatient, he still held his tone as much as possible to calm down.

The door opened and displayed Daania there with her face on her pillow. At once Daania's eyes rounded perfectly due to Axel's presence in her home.

“Kak Axel!” said surprised.

“Lo know where Ciya?” is axel asked without heeding Daania's words earlier.

Daania's face immediately changed hearing Axel's question. What was initially surprised now his face seemed flat and unfriendly.

“What business do you same him?” ask Daania sarcasm.

“Gue knows what you mean by that time. Ciya, he donated his blood for me right?”

Daania clucked accompanied by her cynical smile. “Slow if you just wake up now!” Daania closed the door to her house hard.

“Go! Even though I know, I won't tell you where he is!!” daania shouted from behind the door.

“Gue please, this time only. I am glad I said thanks to him, Daan!” Axel replied to Daania's cry, but there was no answer from Daania.

Axel looked down trying to think where else he could find the girl. His eyes were round as if he had gained enlightenment.

“Kenji!”

*****

Axel gave up on this day. He came to Kenji's house but the man wasn't at his house. That was why for today he would return to Dylan's residence and continue searching for Ciya tomorrow day.

*****

While here, Ciya with Kenji steps her legs. In a quiet place with a handful of flowers in Ciya's hand.

Yes, the doctor let Ciya out even if only briefly and of course still with oxygen hose accompanying him.

The mound of land he was heading to was now in front of him. No matter how hard she held back her tears from coming out, the tears finally broke through as well.

Ciya and kenji crouched down in front of the mound of earth that had a sprinkling of flowers on it.

“A-father.” Ciya's breathing choked, while Kenji rubbed Ciya's back gently trying to uplift the girl.

“Ciya kangen's. Ciya to see Father.” Ciya sobbed bitterly. Maybe if you hear Ciya's cry right now, it will make your heart seem to be hit by a blunt object that is so big.

“Dad knows, since the departure of Father, Ciya's life –“ Ciya stopped as if unable to continue his words.

“Ciya's life is ruined. Ciya scared. Ciya wants to see Dad, but Ciya is afraid to leave Mother alone,” he continued.

Ciya's cry broke. He roared as if his life was completely ruined and there was no hope for him.

Kenji hugged the fragile body, hoping it would help calm Ciya, but Ciya's breathing became even more severed.

“Aakhh, Kak Axel –“ said Ciya before later losing consciousness.

Deg

Kenji was sculpting, life seemed to just stop.

“It seems like there really is no place for me in your heart. Even at times like this the name Axel you call.”

*****

After the day that Ciya lost consciousness at the funeral, Kenji immediately took the girl back to the hospital and received treatment from a doctor.

Today, it was exactly five days after that incident and Ciya still did not want to open her eyes. The girl was still at home in her dreamland.

During those five days, Kenji was never absent from visiting Ciya. After Kenji gets word that Axel is looking for Ciya, he avoids Axel as much as possible.

He doesn't want Axel to meet Ciya, let him be selfish this time.

“You're still sleeping?” ask Kenji. His hands clasped tightly onto Ciya's tanga. The hands are getting colder day by day.

Actually Kenji started to be afraid of the current state of affairs. He was afraid of the bad possibility that would befall Ciya.

“Don't be long, I miss,” he said.

*****

This was already the 5th can he had spent since this morning. His face flushed the effects of the alcohol he drank.

“You till when you rich gini?” Perhaps this was the tenth time that Dylan had asked the same question.

“Gue ma sleeping,” replied Axel began to switch the conversation.

“Lo likes it same Ciya?” Dylan's question on this one was quite successful in making Axel open his eyes.

“Gak!” his objection.

“Keep if you don't like why get rich gini lo?” Dylan pointed at the drink cans scattered in Axel's room.

“Gue Just want to thank him, is it wrong?” pissed Axel.

“Cih bullshit!” said Dylan. He left Axel alone again.

After Dylan's departure, Axel daydreamed. Dylan said he liked Ciya.

“Neg. I just love Daisy. The ciya? I just wanted to say thank you,” monologue. He buried his head back under the pillow.

“Aaarrggg!!!” Axel groaned in frustration.

*****

“Kak, why silence from earlier?” ask Daisy.

“Ah no, no why. Again not feeling well,” he replied.

Daisy nodded.

“Say now there is a transfer student huh?”

Axel had not yet answered Daisy's question, a voice managed to make them avert his eyes.

“Hey yo Daisy, you changed a lot ya!” yells. Daisy quivered, she was terrified.

“Lo – lo who?” ask Daisy nervously.

“Cih, you pretended to forget to already beautiful lo.”

“Lo who? Why bother my girl?!” Axel grabbed the collar of the man's shirt.

“Casual bro, I'm his SMP friend.” Axel looked at Daisy for reassurance.

Daisy looked down, she didn't know what to answer.

“OK if you forget. My name is Delvin Ryoji the one who is already shy Ciya and you the one who told me.” The smile of the man named Delvin expands, while Daisy rounds her eyes.

“Means?” Axel was confused because of all this.

“Ups, sorry I release.”

“Clearly now!!” axel yelled, which made Daisy jump.

“He hates Ciya, hmm not rather he envies the same perfect life of Ciya. Yeah, and the rest of you must know why he also deketin lo. Because Ciya likes the same lo, and he first dapetin lo rather than see lo same Ciya happy.”

Axel's eyes are round.

“So all this time you don't have the same taste of me?” ask Axel. He hopes that all of this is not true.

“Bu-buk – “

“Definite jawab!” snapped Axel. Daisy lowered. Everything Delvin said was true, he never liked Axel, he just didn't want to see Ciya happy with Axel.

“Ya right! Everything he said was true!” shout Daisy.

Axel raises his hand to slap Daisy, but she holds him back because she remembers Daisy as a woman.

Axel breathed deeply. “Crazy girl,” her hiss, whether Daisy hears it or not.

“We broke up!” Axel left after saying that
