There Is Him Among Us

Azka's Return

After arriving in front of Azka's house, Airin pushed Azka's wheelchair into her house. Inside Azka's house there were already some friends who welcomed Azka's arrival.

"Welcome home" cried Tomi. "Sorry I don't look at you in the hospital."

Azka smiling gets a welcome from her friends. "Thank you. You guys have come to my house."

They all gathered in the living room of Azka's house with various food they brought.

"Ai, if you're still a long time ago I'll go home first. I have a customer appointment" said Alvin, who is now approaching his daughter.

"Yes, Dad. Let Airin go home alone."

"I'll be anterin, Ai" said Melodi, who had just arrived with her father and helped carry Azka's luggage from the hospital.

"Yes, Dad came home first" Alvin said, then he went out with his Papa Melodi.

"We eat first. Well, there's a special menu from Airin's cafe" said Tomi and Riki who are now starting to eat the dishes.

Then Melodi sat down next to Airin who was chatting with Azka. "Ka, if there's anything, call me right away. Our house is close. Papa's happy to help, too."

"Yes, you and Papa you have helped me and Mom a lot."

"As neighbors and friends we should also help each other."

Azka was so grateful to have such good friends as them. "Revan's leaving now, Ai?" asked Azka while looking at Airin who was replying to Revan.

"Yes, an hour later the plane leaves."

"Hopefully he won." Although Azka kept her sadness neat but still visible from the look of her eyes.

Airin rubbed Azka's shoulder, she knew Azka was disappointed not to be able to follow the Olympics. "There will be a chance for you. You have to stay up."

Azka nodded her head. Yes, he must stay the spirit of living his life. He must not give up, there is still a chance even if he has to wait a short time.

A few moments later, Azka's father entered the house. He just passed Azka and his friends without saying anything.

Azka let out a long breath. I want him to not see his father right now, but how can he. The house he was riding in belonged to his father.

All of Azka's friends didn't dare to ask about her father. Moreover, seeing the look of Azka's sour face.

A little while later, Azka's father came back out with a bag. He still did not ask Azka anything. Until he left on his bike.

"I'm sorry, you're like that." Azka lowered her gaze then she tried to turn her wheelchair but struggled.

"Where are you? I'm helping." Airin stood up and confirmed the position of the wheels so that the wheelchair could turn.

"I'm going to the room. Let me help you."

"Your mother is still in the kitchen. Come on, I'll help." Airin pushed Azka's wheelchair into Azka's room. "What do you need, I'll get it."

Azka did not answer. He lowered his gaze and cried sobbing.

"You're out Ai, I don't want to look whiny in front of you."

Airin stretched out her hand and wiped away the tears Azka had dripped on her cheek. "I understand how you feel. You must be sad about your father. No papa, you overflow your sadness so that the tightness in your heart decreases."

"Dad doesn't care about me at all. Even ask me how I'm not doing." Azka shrunk her tears to stop flowing. "When I have a father, it's like I don't have a father."

Airin hugged Azka. His heart was clouded to hear Azka's complaint. When Azka is down like this, she really needs a lot of support, especially from her parents.

"You're a strong guy. I'm sure you can get through this. May one day your father come to your senses and love you."

Azka tightened her embrace on Airin. Airin's embrace always managed to make her feel calmer. "Thank you, you're always there when I'm down."

"Sama-sama, you have helped me a lot too." Airin took off her embrace and removed the remains of tears on Azka's cheeks. "Don't be sad anymore, there are still many who love you."

Slowly Azka held Airin's hand on her cheek. "Ai, can we still get this close?" ask Azka. He knew how many years Airin would belong to Revan completely.

Airin did not answer.

"I know you belong to Revan, once I recover Revan won't let you get close to me anymore."

Airin didn't know what to say because that's how it is.

"Ai, I love you. My love for you cannot be lost, and it grows with time."

"But Azka, I..."

"Yes, I know you belong to Revan," Azka cut. "I didn't expect to have you. Let this love be stored in my heart."

Airin could only look at Azka. She had been friends with Azka for a long time, but she had no feelings for Azka. She falls in love with Revan and is avenged by Revan.

"Sorry, I don't mean to bring up feelings. Forget what I said just now. We go out, meet up with friends again."

Airin helps Azka out of her room. They rejoined their friends. Azka's feelings have improved a little.

"You eat the potluck first" asked Azka's mother. "Azka, let's eat first."

Azka nodded. They eat together and sometimes joke.

Occasionally Azka glanced at Airin from the side. If only I could have you for a little while, I would be so happy.
