There Is Him Among Us

Regretted?

Arriving at the hospital, Airin and his father immediately approached Revan and his Papa who were sitting in front of the operating room.

"Van, what happened to Azka? He's in surgery?" airin asked in a panic. Previously Revan did have time to tell his father that Azka should be in surgery immediately.

Revan nodded his head. "His bone fracture was so severe, he had to have surgery right away."

Airin cried even more at the thought of Azka's current condition. He could not imagine how much pain Azka felt.

"Have you contacted her parents?" ask Alvin.

"Here, Om."

Alvin sat down and hugged his crying daughter. "Ai, don't cry. We're praying the operation goes well."

Airin nodded his head and drowned his face in his father's chest.

Revan just stared at Airin. If he was in Azka's position, he would definitely do the same.

A little while later, the Doctor who handled Azka came out. "Have the patient's family arrived?"

They all stood up and approached the Doctor.

"Not Doc, but we're all patient families. Please do your best for Azka" Alvin said.

"Yes, we've tried to do our best. But because the fracture was so severe, the healing period would be long and there was a possibility of that happening. The patient will not be able to walk perfectly again as usual because the fracture is very close to the knee."

Hearing that, Airin suddenly squeezed, then how Azka could play basketball again.

"Ai," Alvin restrained his daughter's body from falling over.

"Is that certain, Doc?" ask Revan. "Because Azka's a basketball athlete."

"We'll see results after six months of healing. If there is an effect, we can arrange therapy. But still, it all took quite a long time." Then the doctor went back into the operating room.

"Dad, Azka's the captain of basketball. What if he can't play basketball anymore, and that's all because of me. Why can't Azka just let me get hit."

Alvin increasingly embraced his daughter's trembling body. He understood how his daughter felt. "Father will help Azka to heal. Whatever the cost, I'll bear it. Don't be sad. I also owe Azka for saving you."

Revan sat down while rubbing his face. He also could not imagine how Azka would feel if he knew he would not be able to play basketball in such an indeterminate amount of time.

"Van, let's go home." take Kevin.

"In a moment, Pa." He wanted to calm Airin down, but it was impossible because his father kept holding Airin.

Moments later, Azka's mother came alone crying. "How's Azka's condition?"

"Azka's in surgery."

Mom sat down weakly. "Azka, you're a strong boy. You can get through this."

Airin took off his father's embrace and approached Bu Isti. "Tante, I'm sorry. For helping me, Azka became like this." Airin held the hand of Bu Isti with a sobbing cry.

Isti shook his head. "What Azka did was right. Don't be sad."

"But..." Airin could not speak anymore. The worst could have happened to Azka.

"Sir papa. Azka will definitely not regret helping you."

Airin hugged Bu Isti, and was still crying as she pleased.

After the surgery was completed, Azka was transferred to the ward. But he's still unconscious. Airin now sees Azka's condition before she returns home.

...***...

The next day, although Tearin's eyes looked narrow from crying all night, she still entered school. He now sits on his stool limply.

"Ai, how is Azka now?" asked Melodi as she approached Airin who was sitting on her stool.

"I don't know yet. I'll be there after school."

"Siska and I went along" Melodi said.

Airin nodded his head. He is still sad if he remembers Azka's condition now.

"Udah don't be sad. Azka's strong, she'll be fine."

"The problem..." Airin shed her tears again. "Doctor says Azka's legs can't go back to being perfect. Then how does Azka play basketball like that. You know, for Azka basketball is her life."

Melody shifted the seat and hugged Airin. "Yes, I understand."

"Azka shouldn't have helped me. I feel so guilty like this, Mel. Azka's life will be ruined just because of me."

"Ssttt, don't say it like that. Azka will be very sad if she does not help you. Don't blame yourself. Better now we help Azka to get through her tough times."

Airin nodded slowly, then wiped away her tears. "Yes, you're right."

Moments later, Revan came and sat on his stool. "Ai," called him to have Airin look at him.

Airin twisted her body and looked at Revan.

Seeing the lovers who seemed to want to talk about something serious, Melodi left. Finally Revan moved to sit next to Airin.

"Ai, in three days I'm going to Jakarta for the Olympics. Azka should have also joined but because of Azka's condition, Azka was forced to retreat."

Airin lowered his gaze. Her chest really felt tight thinking about Azka. Though Azka was already very excited about going to the Olympics, she had also borrowed money in the cafe and prepared everything but all failed just because of her.

"Ai, don't beat yourself up." Revan held Airin in one hand. "If I were in Azka's position, I would definitely do the same. And vice versa, if you are in the position of Azka, you will certainly do the same. Everyone would definitely do anything for someone he cared about."

One hand of Airin shrunk the tears that almost fell.

"Ai, I can only help Azka materially. I also told the principal to give Azka more scholarships this year. For the next, you can support Azka. I'm sure you can restore Azka's spirit. Don't be afraid I'm jealous or misunderstood, because I'm not that selfish."

Airin smiled in her tears as she looked at Revan.

"I owe Azka two lives. Azka helped me when I was bitten by a snake and Azka helped you last night. Azka also told me where you are. Without Azka, I don't know what your fate is now."

Revan wiped away the tear that was still running down his cheek. "Don't be sad anymore." He was now staring at the two puffy eyes of Airin. "I love you." After that Revan stood up and sat back on his stool.

Yes, for a while let Azka have Airin.
