Dareel POVs
Earlier this morning the doctor said that Edwin had realized, I was in front of the hospital room looking at the mother and child who were now talking, a happy look of a mother seeing her son had passed through a critical period, he said, edwin is lucky to have a mother like aunt mira.
While I was busy with my daydreams, suddenly aunt mira patted me on the shoulder and told me to meet edwin inside.
"Bro, bro, please take that drink." Said Edwin when I just entered this hospital room, look, dark songongnya already back again.
"Thanks bro" Edwin drank the glass of water I gave him, "Where are you?" I asked Edwin who looked very relaxed, even he did not show fear on his face, even though the condition when I found him was lying like that with papa and also rion.
"See, I'm gapapa. Thank you very much Reel, you have come and help us even though I can't help. Especially Rion, my mama said that if he was not treated at that time maybe rion also not helped." Edwin looked at me.
"Why do you even worry about the same rion who has been wretched lo same bokap lo?" Ask edwin. "No, not rion. He's also my rich victim, if there's no rion maybe I won't survive." Edwin patted me on the shoulder.
"Gue's been making reports with the police, not the culprit. We're both victims of bokap." I am more confused by edwin's explanation, how can rion who hates edwin even help him.
"Bokap lo? Meanin?" Ask Edwin who is now sitting on his bed. "My book was deceived as well, because papa used to also make all the way for business including embezzlement of funds. I also don't understand anyway, but the point was yesterday I was in the same ancem rion, he would be harmed papa if I didn't come nyamperin him."
"It turns out that at that time also his grandmother rion dateng and told edwin that all this time that sufficed the economic needs of the family he was my mother without my knowledge, papa, even Rion's grandmother told me that my mom used to donate her kidney when Edwin was in an accident." I was surprised to hear edwin's explanation
"And at that time I also got word that my father was in the same sandra as the team man, I came to the address in their searlock. And yes you know how my condition is the same papa I when you meet us." Edwin patted his hair, looking he was still in shock because of the incident.
"My father was beaten and I tried to help him, but I couldn't. Finally rion came, which I wanted at that time there was a gunshot and rion shouted my name but I was not aware, uh before that I wanted rion under the gun and he shot one offender with that gun." Right speech edwin, because from the police statement was one of the perpetrators shot in the back.
"Reel, as much as I hate anything as angry as I'm equally papa. He is my papa, right? It doesn't seem fair that he died rich that, I don't know my mom's pain to him yet." I saw Edwin holding back his tears.
"Gue's the same dion's sorry, win. I know it's tough for you, but I also know you're strong and you have a super good mom plus now you have a sister, Rion's." I smiled and patted edwin's shoulder.
"What's wrong?" Edwin smiled, "Where is dion? It was not here what the new prince realized," said Edwin asked the whereabouts of dion, I chuckled, how can people who just realized act annoying like this.
Right now the rions are not yet awake, I am grateful that rion and edwin have made up, rather they are brothers. Ah yes.. just info, starting today rion and rion live in edwin.
Earlier this morning aunt mira ordered her man to pack up all the belongings of grandma rion and rion to be moved to her house, it was nice not the heart of aunt mira.

Two months later
Since edwin and Rion came home two months ago, I've always called Alana but her phone is off. I also come every day to her apartment but it's quiet no one, not even aunty there.
For a month I didn't want to do anything, just go to college and go home or find out where Alana is.
I looked at Lala and Kiki who were asleep in my bed. "Hey, why are you guys even sleeping like this? Aren't you worried about where your mother is?" I spoke to Lala who was now looking at me.
"Don't you know where Alana went, so you guys just relax hmm?" Shit, I even talked directly to these cats.
Aaahh, I ruffled my hair in frustration, walked towards the balcony and stared back. I remember what Alana said eight years ago, if we miss someone then look up at the night sky and close your eyes and imagine if you are in front of the person you miss.
"Alana, I miss you so much, I miss you so much." I close my eyes tightly, I don't want the shadow of Alana's face to disappear from my mind.
"Dareel, eat, uncle has warmed your food." I turned to face my uncle and nodded. "Hey, why haven't you eaten at home lately? Do you have any events and eat out?." Ask uncle to come to me.
"Yes uncle," I replied lying, I don't want uncle to know what's going on right now. "Bad boy," uncle menonyor my head. "You can't lie, Dareel. Do you think uncle doesn't know what's going on?" Said my uncle beside me.
"Sorry, uncle...." I spoke softly, looking at the uncle who now lit a cigarette and smoked it. Uncle shook his head and patted me on the shoulder. "Alana. Some women are like that, when she's weakened she'll go somewhere and be away from the people closest to her." Uncle.
"But why did Alana do that? Even he didn't talk to me or tell me anything and the last time we spoke was fine." I looked at my uncle, and that's what I think we're okay with.
"Are you stupid or what, reel? Understand a woman's feelings, if Alana says she's okay it must be the opposite of what's said." Uncle looked at me in wonder, "Uncle wonder, are you insensitive or stupid, huh?" continued uncle, throw away his cigarette nipple.
"Uncle... I'm just scared, what if Alana's really gone? Until now Alana has not fully accepted me, what if she is tired and away from me? I mean, I really can't lose Alana anymore." I clenched my hands, no, Alana can't leave me.
"Listen from Dareel, trust your uncle, Alana. Alana, she loves you son, when she smiles at you again that's the moment she has accepted you. Don't torture yourself like this, what if Alana comes back and you get thinner like this?" Uncle smiled and patted me on the shoulder.
I smiled and nodded, "Thank you, uncle.". "Come in and close the window, the night wind is not good for the truth" said the uncle walking away.
"Ah yes, dareel... Uncle also knows what has happened between you and alana, if he returns soon marry alana. Can't you keep your***** huh? This stupid little fellow really is, "uncle said in the doorway, I widened my eyes, Damn how you know.

I walked into my room, who wants to see me this afternoon. I opened the door and saw a man sitting in front of my desk with a sharp look towards me.
"Ah, it's true you're dareel aldari." His words walked towards me and suddenly hit my jaw. Damn, who he is, I grabbed this guy by the collar and hit him back.
"Lo who's brengsrek?" I asked him, "Where are you going under Alana, huh?" Her question screamed in front of me. I looked at him confused, he knew Alana.
"FUCKING," he shouted taking off the clutches on the collar of my shirt. He walked over and sat back down on the chair, "Lo who? How do you know Alana?" Ask this guy.
"Gue's? I'm a guy who's loved Alana for five years, yeah, I'm Alana's best friend, Ethan." She looked at me intently, Ethan.it seems like Alana once told me about this man.
"Gue's here because I'm sure you know where Alana's going." His words are still staring at me cynically. I shook my head to walk towards him, "Two months I'm half dead nyari where alana went, and lo? Mending you go, rather than you die here." I shook my hands in front of this man.
I'm really angry right now, he says he's Alana's best friend but he loves her too. Really now I'm dealing with a guy who's really going to be my rival.
I looked at him from top to bottom, ethan the name of this man. He was also handsome but not comparable to me and obviously more handsome I was, I smiled slanted in front of him. And yeah..he's just alana's best friend, but me? I'm a man who's loved alana even our relationship has gone that far, I can't consider this man my rival because obviously I'm on top of him.
I chuckled, "Lo, I'll keep my eye on it, and you after alana's back the three of us will make it clear who we all choose." Said this crazy man.
"Whatever," I flicked my hand again, after this man left I closed the door of the room, damn my lips were torn from his punch.
