Marvin looked at Ray with a look of pity. Her best friend looked haggard and messy. Not like Ray Marvin. The figure of Ray Eagle who is firm, neat and sturdy now looks shabby and skinny. His eyes looked sunken like he was sleep deprived
"Bro, how many days have you not been home?" Ask Marvin
"Since Zalynda moved here..That means 5 days." Said Ray who did not let go of his gaze towards Zalynda.
Marvin sighed, "Elo is like a fool to know. I haven't been to the office for a long time either. Good thing the company has an elo family."
Ray shook his head "Gue wants to wait for Za, Vin. I'm afraid he wakes up and I don't exist."
"But Elo can't just gini bro. Have you not yet read? Elo's look is really ugly.."
"Gue doesn't care." Sergey Ray is fast
Marvin speechless. This young man tried to string together words that could make Ray pay a little attention to himself
"Elo want Zalynda to wake up and see this?"
Ray turned his head to look at Marvin as he frowned. Marvin breathed his breath
"Ray, Zalynda must also be sad if you like this. You know, even though he is in a vegetative state but he may still be horrified. He would be sad and feel guilty if you like this. Don't pity if he thinks of Elo?"
Ray silently digested Marvin's words. Actually Ray had read the thing Marvin mentioned earlier, but he forgot because his mind was focused on Zalynda.
Ray slowly sighed "Yeah, I can't make him sadder.."
Marvin smiles at Ray's words and hugs his best friend tightly. Ray hugged Marvin. Marvin lets go of his embrace while covering his nose
"The first thing you should do is take a shower and wear perfume, Ray. Your original body smells so bad!"
"Damn you say I stink!" Ray said that immediately crab Marvin in his armpit until Marvin gasped. Both laughed stifled
Ray let go of the pittingan then looked at Marvin
"Thanks bro." -."

"Assalamu'alaykum, baby. Sorry I came home late today. Meeting with PT Hong Liong took a lot of time." Ray said as he opened his coat. Ray's voice sounded cheerful as he told a story with a woman
A woman who had been almost 10 days lying helpless. Just heard a heart-rate device when Ray paused his speech
Ray smiled. The young man took a change of clothes and went into the bathroom. Not long after Ray came out of the bathroom. His face looks fresher
At Marvin's suggestion, Ray regained his attention to himself and his work. At night, Ray prefers to sleep in the hospital, precisely in the Zalynda treatment room. Ray asked the hospital to provide a bed for him in Zalynda's nursery.
Ardhi had planned to move Zalynda to the Al Farobi family home by providing the best medical personnel and bringing the equipment Zalynda needed to the house.
Ray refused it. Ray prefers Zalynda to be in the hospital, in case something happens and needs quick action. Daniel and Reema will look at Zalynda if the girl is brought home
The doctor advised to always stimulate Zalynda's brain by telling her a lot and having the girl talk, and Ray did
"Mm perfumed, this I bought in front of the hospital earlier. I'll eat first." Said Ray while feeding a spoonful of fried rice into his mouth
"Enak, this is delicious Za.." Ray kept eating the fried rice. Slowly the feed stopped. Ray slowly chewed the fried rice in his mouth. His lips smiled sadly
"But not as good as you make it, Za.."
The atmosphere was silent, only the sound of a heart rate machine was heard. Ray immediately wiped away the water that bathed his eyes. He could not cry in front of Zalynda
Ray put away the fried rice in front of him and sat down to approach Zalynda. Slowly Ray clasped Zalynda's fingers, taking care not to hit the infusion on Zalynda's hands
"You know Za, there's a lot waiting for you. You'll be surprised when you wake up and find out that you have a grandmother, a mother and a Papa." Ray laughed a little.
The young man smiled as he stroked Zalynda's head slowly
"Happiness is waiting for you, Za. You have to fight to wake up. They miss you, me too.. I really like you.."
Ray was sure and still fostered hope, someday the chocolate bead will open and return to look warmly lovingly

Mr. Wijaya entered Zalynda's nursery using a wheelchair pushed by bi Ijah. Ardhi and Aya gave space for Wijaya's master to get close to Zalynda. On the sofa Daniel and Ray sat watching
Mr. Wijaya's situation is much better. He was able to move the right part of his body and began to be able to speak normally even though sometimes it sounded a little slurred
Mr. Wijaya's eyes heat up to see the condition of Zalynda is still closed.
"I'm sorry grandpa.. Grandfather was at fault all this time." said Mr. Wijaya quivering.
"Master.." said bi Ijah who also shrank the tears with the end of his shirt arm
"If you hadn't been selfish thinking about the company, maybe you'd still be by Grandpa's side, laughing and not have a painful memory all your life, my dear Zalynda.."
Mr. Wijaya's eyes look wet
"Maybe your mother won't go crazy and you can still meet and talk." continued Mr. Wijaya again
"I've put your name as the sole heir of the Wijaya Group. I know, you've been through a lot of grief and what I'm doing is not being able to close your wounds. I wouldn't be surprised if you hated me later, son. But I ask, fight for life. At least make this old man less guilty." said Mr. Wijaya sobbing
Mr. Wijaya turned to look at Ardhi and Aya while smiling "Thank you. You're so kind to my granddaughter, considering what my son did to you.."
Ardhi smiled "No Om. It's all over. Me and Aya have forgiven Farah. After all Zalynda had nothing to do with the events of a quarter of a century ago."
Mr. Wijaya nodded with a smile. The man then turned to look at Daniel
"Nil.. I'm sorry I separated you and your daughter. I'm sorry I never told you. Farah, he never opened his mouth about Zalynda's father so I don't know.."
Daniel approached Lord Vijaya and crouched down near Lord Wijaya
"Sir, stop. What's important now is that I already know that I have a child with a woman I've loved all my life."
Mr. Wijaya's eyes slightly enlarged "You.. Have you ever met Farah?"
Daniel nodded.
"Can I meet him?" Ask Mr. Wijaya again
"This is Allah sir. I'll have Edah bring Farah's mom here." Said Ray
Mr. Wijaya's eyes seemed to sparkle. Ray smiled looking at her and looked towards Zalynda who was lying down
Ray's eyes were patterned when he realized there was a clear point falling from the corner of Zalynda's eye
"Zw.."
