Along the way to the hospital, Laila never let go of my hand for a second.
He clasped my hand like a child who did not want to be separated from his mother in the hustle and bustle of the night market.
But then he saw a hot air balloon and asked his mother to go there. But his mother stayed in place. He had a strong desire to go to that place. Then his mother did not move from that place. Until he finally caught his guard and rebelled, then let go of his mother's hand because of that desire. A desire so strong that it is difficult to control.
When her hands and her mother's hands were released, she realized. If in the midst of the hustle and bustle of this crowded place, he was alone, without anyone accompanying. No one.
"Well!!"
Suddenly he called my name with a raucous voice that was almost inaudible. Her lips were pale and blue, her hands were icy cold, her tears had dried up entering the pores of her face.
The children around me were unaware of the incident.
I immediately moved from my position and brought my ear closer to the corner of his lips.
"Hold a little more." He said as a whisper. "gua sure you are strong!!"
I cried as if I was holding her slowly weakened hand. For some reason, I felt something bad in the midst of this anxiety.
"A little while!!" Whisper in his ear.
She smiles.
"California. We'll be here soon!!"
He closed his eyes while smiling.
"Hold a little more. We're almost in the city!!" I said again with a trembling tone.
But he no longer responded to me, he no longer held my hand.
"California. You must be tired. Go to sleep for a moment. But you have to promise, if we get to the hospital. You should wake up soon!!"
Laila did not answer.
"Sleep. You must be so, so tired!!" I held her face while crying.
Taakk...
I'm speechless.
His voice suddenly fell from my grasp.
I looked at her sleeping face, her sleeping peace. And I looked again at my hand that no longer held his hand.
In an instant my world seemed to collapse into pieces.
"Lai, lai. Wake lai!!" I panicked as I slapped her cheek.
But he still did not want to wake up, he fell asleep in peace.
The children ran over in panic looking at me who was hysterical.
"California. Lai, wake up Lai. Wake up!!" Call me not to stop slapping her cheek.
The pick up car driven by Rio suddenly stopped when I heard the noise I made.
They were all shrouding the body of Laila who was soundly asleep.
"Lailaaaa.wake Lai...wake up!!" My screams shook his body several times.
But he didn't give me a word, he still slept well.
The rest of the children who drove our car from behind came out and ran to me.
He stared blankly at Laila and without realizing it himself, tears were pouring down his face.
"Aryans. Please, tell Laila to get up. Why didn't he listen to me when I told him to get up. Why did he keep falling asleep when I told him to get up."
Arya did not reply to my words.
"Wake up Laila, I beg you!!"
"Well!!" Arya kept calling my name and looked at the sleeping Laila.
Darling got into the car and approached Laila's body.
He looked at me first and held Laila's wrist for a while, then switched to holding her neck and finally brought her index finger close to Laila's nose.
Baby didn't say anything to me. But immediately grunt heavily and do first aid to someone who has a cardiac arrest.
"Honey. What are you doing!!" I panicked and put his hand away.
But Archie pulled my body and kept me away from Laila's body.
"What do you do to someone who is sleeping. Honey stop!!" I tried to get away from Archie.
All the children who witnessed the sight, scooped their own faces with tears. The atmosphere turned dark in a moment.
Archie blocked me from getting close to Laila's body while affectionately doing chest compressions and giving her artificial breath for a few minutes, which the other children helped with.
Darling kept trying until the sweat on his body poured down.
After 25 minutes had passed. Laila never woke up from her sleep. He had already fallen asleep deep enough to be reluctant to open his eyes again.
Darling stopped doing that and raised her head because tears were stuck in her eyelids, until she finally looked at me and showed the truth.
"He's gone!!" Saying a sweet with a loud voice.
My body immediately lost the energy just to get up. Arya roared as if prostrating herself on the street and punching the ground firmly. The other children cried as they pleased and covered their own faces with their palms. While Archie hugged me firmly as if to be a pillar so that I do not fall.
***************
Exactly 2 hours before we all got to the city to the hospital. Laila breathed her last in peace and was surrounded by loving friends.
He did not say his last words like soap opera scenes or Indian films that I often see on tv. He only said a word to me with a thousand smiles, which I will never forget in my entire life.
And my world turned dark in just a few seconds.
Three days later.
The entire country was shocked by the news of corruption cases that re-emerged after the case was closed a few years ago because the accused was found not guilty.
But after the revelation of the perpetrators of bribes involved, along with the ranks of the higher-ups of this country who get great compensation for the cessation of the case. This country is again dimmed by the noble character of the noble ones, defeating the fragrance of treasure rather than dignity.
The involvement of Japanese fugitive Todoroki Hiru who became the highest search intensity in international crime, making this case a new case.
Media around the world highlighted the big news as an extraordinary event around the world because it involved state officials who for the first time, were revealed to have cooperated with international fugitives.
Until the news reached the Japanese media.
The incident that happened in Lombok and directly involved the family of Yuaga Konisuke after the INFER tragedy, became a scene in the local media. Moreover, until now Hiru Todoroki, not found its existence after escaping by speedboat and hiding on uninhabited islands that could not be detected by sea mapping.
The tragedy became long after it was discovered that one innocent person had been killed and another had been paralyzed for life.
And the center of this case was entirely devoted to the son of the accused who was found guilty, after being known to establish a relationship between the agreement with Hiru Todoroki who planned an attack on the large family of Yuaga Konisuke.
