“his fever did not go down from earlier. What do you want me to do, Hana?” ask Dad while putting back the thermometer that has been used. It says 39o on the thermometer.
“no, Dad. Maybe I'm exhausted.”
“do not have too many thoughts. I know a few days yesterday were tough days for you. But trust me, everything will be fine. Did you meet Leo this afternoon? She said goodbye to Dad leaving this afternoon.”
Never mind to see his face, hearing his name just called to make Hana feel like crying again. Between hate and love.
“I didn't meet.” Hana answered briefly while hugging the pillow.
“well. Dad let you rest. Hopefully tomorrow it's healed.” Said Dad while kissing Hana's forehead.
During this time Dad was able to be good as a good father and an understanding mother. That's what makes Hana grow up to be an independent child and not spoiled.
Hana did not go to sleep immediately, she still thought about many things. Suddenly his phone rang. Incoming call from Mia.
“how are you doing, Hana?” greet Mia from across the phone.
“still fever. From earlier do not want to go down.”
“aku's worried. You were so pale. Fortunately, you were delivered by Sojiro. I'm relieved. I don't want your pain to get worse.” Obviously Mia is long.
“kak Sojiro?” Hannah was surprised by Mia's words. Hana is very sure if this afternoon she went home alone without being escorted by anyone.
“you met him, right? Sorry, yes. I'm worried about you. So I asked Sojiro to come after you. Know it? He immediately ran after you when he found out you were sick. So sweet, right? When did I have a girlfriend kayak kak Sojiro.”
Hana did not care about Mia's long chatter. In his mind was filled with the possibility that Sojiro had caught up with him. Could he have seen the debate between Hana and Leo? He must have felt very hurt if he saw the incident last afternoon. “Should I contact him?” ask Hana in my heart.
“you're still there Hana?” you hear me?”
“eh. I heard it. Uh..Mia... I have broken up with Sojiro.”.
Mia glares. Didn't expect the ending to be like this. Mia had already told Sojiro about Hana and Leo, but in hopes of Sojiro still fighting for Hana. But it seems like he missteps. Or... The insensitive Sojiro?
“kak Sojiro knows how I feel, but you know Mia, I also almost love Brother Sojiro. It might be too late. I want to be alone first.”
“then brother Leo how?”
“between me and him there is no hope of being together. That's what he said.”
“tak what. You did your best, Hana.” Mia said with a smile. Trying to revive Hana's spirit.
The phone call ended. Hana was still staring at her phone screen. His eyes were twitching due to the effect of his fever. It felt like he wanted to throw away his very dizzy head. “Kak Sojiro how are you?” ask Hana in my heart. He must have felt this messed up.

“what Mom can enter?” mother asked while peeking into Hana's room. It looks like he just got home from the office. Mom and Dad have been busy lately.
Hana nodded. His head is still buzzing. But he must be strong.
“Mother heard you were sick. Is it over?”
“still dizzy, Mother. Fever does not want to go down.” Answer Hana to be spoiled. All his life, he never once acted spoiled to a mother at a time of illness like this. She is grateful to be able to feel the love of a mother. He did not want to lose this happiness.
“Mother, forgive Hana. Whatever happened, Hana was happy because Mom was my mom. Don't worry about me and Leo's brother. I've decided my own way of life, and Leo's brother already has his own way of life. I don't want to change this, Miss.”
Mom just smiled. How lucky he was to have a daughter who was so understanding and kind. “you sure it's okay?”
“iya, Mother. No need to worry.”
“well. A good rest, yes. May it heal quickly.” Mom said while kissing Hana's forehead.
Hana's eyes were too heavy to force her to stay open. Even so, he still thinks, “what is the best?”

Step by step. Motion by motion. The time that goes by seems to stop. When the hand is no longer able to reach. When the eyes are no longer able to look. When the hands can no longer hold each other. Even the heart no longer seems to be stuck. Yep…. Shana Kozuki, the daughter of the owner of Switzerland's largest diamond company, is in a state of public turmoil. Why do we have to feel lost and separated first to realize how valuable someone is to us? Can't you feel it without losing it?
Shana walks slowly while daydreaming. Right in line with his gaze, Tadashi was joking with his friend. At least he didn't dare to say hello to Tadashi even though he wanted to. The feeling of loss is back. Seeing Tadashi laughing happily as if he did not save the slightest bit of sadness, made Shana wonder. Faintly he could hear the conversation of Tadashi and his friends from behind.
I can only look from a distance. Yes.that's what the daughter of a conglomerate is doing whose romance always ends horribly. Shana took a long breath. He sees Tadashi as taking his wallet out of his pocket. Tadashi dropped something from his wallet. But Tadashi doesn't know. Shana keeps walking slowly behind Tadashi and his friends. Trying to get close to something that Tadashi dropped earlier. From a distance it looks like a photograph. Tadashi and his friends move further away while Shana stops her. Hoping that in this way, the distance between them was getting further away. Shana wants to pick up the paper that Tadashi accidentally dropped. Shana slowly steps forward to approach the dropped paper. The closer it gets, the more it becomes clear that it is a photograph. Shana took the photo and turned it over. His whole body was frozen. His mouth was still unable to speak.
Shana knows this photo. How is it possible if he doesn't know. Hands shaking. Why is this picture on Tadashi? Shana is still in her daydream when her best friend Cleanne greets her. It didn't take long for Shana to return to the real world. His face was terrified. Cleanne was also surprised to see the photo held by Shana. How could this happen? think Cleanne.
In the picture, two boys are laughing together. There's no way Shana's mistaken. He looked at Cleanne's face. As if understanding what Shana wanted to say, Cleanne immediately replied.
“iya, Sha. This is a photo of Tadashi and Hiroki.” Cleanne.
Unable to speak, Shana just wondered in her heart. What do they both have in common? Since when do they know each other? Why is something this important not known to Shana or Cleanne? “I have to meet Tadashi.” Shana said firmly.
