CIGIT!!

The sound of squeaking Alka motorcycle tires with asphalt is quite buzzing ears on the fairly quiet streets. Only two or three vehicles passed.

Meira closed her eyes tightly, her embrace tightened as the Alka motor sport almost toppled forward due to the sudden brakes.

Meira's chest went up and down with a roar of breath hunting as Alka's motor was stabilized. His eyes began to heat up from fear.

"Lo okay?" still in the same position Meira nodded at Alka's back.

The guy—Alka— took off Meira's arm that wrapped around her stomach slowly and then went down after standardizing her bike.

Alka gave a glance. Already stood around eight people who wrapped around him with a sharp grin.

"Wolf." Inwardly Alka hissed when she knew who those people were.

He first lifted Meira down from his motorbike and then held the shoulder of the woman who was looking down. "Lo can martial arts?"

Meira shook her head then looked up at Alka's sharp eyes. "I-I'm scared, brother. I don't know martial arts" Meira shuddered. His eyes moved restlessly staring at those plainclothes people.

Alka took a breath and pressed her hand against Meira's shoulder.

"We fight together."

The sentence successfully made Meira's eyes pattern. He had absolutely no idea of martial arts and now Alka wanted to fight them together?

Just be right!

"Tap-"

"Oiy! No drama for both!" the screams of one of the men cut off Meira's words.

The circle broke as the person who had shouted attacked Alka.

Bugh!

One bogeman landed on Alka's cheek. The guy sizzled and then stared intently at the perpetrator. Grasping Meira's hand and then throwing a big kick at the man's chest.

"Damn it!" Alka cursed when a tall man with a bald head was about to hit Meira.

Bugh!

The kick from Meira's leg to the boy's heirloom successfully made the master groan in pain.

Meira looked at her feet in disbelief and then put her back on Alka's back. The men again narrowed their distance with a sharp grin that never escaped.

"Follow me up, okay?" Meira nodded at Alka's whisper.

"Kick!" Alka lifted Meira's waist until the girl's legs floated on the face of the hairy man.

"Damn it," said the man.

Alka again raised her right fist at the guy who was about to hit her, while her left hand tightly grasped Meira's right hand.

This is a difficult position for Alka when her space of movement is limited. He could have killed those people if there wasn't a Meira he had to protect.

Alka glanced at Meira who was staring at those people. Alka couldn't blame Meira. It was his job to look after Meira.

Karna Gilang's.

Bugh!

Alka slumped to the side as one kicked her arm. His grip on Meira is released until finally the girl is trapped in the hut of the guy who kicked Alka.

Alka got up and intended to float a bogeman on the boy before finally a folding knife held out on Meira's neck.

Alka riveted. His eyes were straight at the knife and Meira who was already crying in turn.

"K-sister. Please, Mei. I-I'm not-fear."

The soft sound of it managed to wake up the sleeping Lion within Alka. A sharp grin began to be imprinted on that cold face. His eyes sharpened with the iris of an Eagle ready to wield anyone.

"You want what lo? Dare to step once, just. Here, dead girl!" funny that guy. The knife was getting closer to Meira's neck.

Seringai Alka is getting sharper. "We see who will die" he said low but gripping. Typical of an Alka. A calm but capable carry made his enemy tremble in fear.

When the man was busy stopping Meira's rebellion. Alka reached into his jacket pocket.

DOR'S!

The sound of a small firecracker but has a big sound managed to blow up Alka beside the guy until the master was aghast and released his hut from Meira.

Alka quickly pulled Meira and hid the girl on her back. Alka's eyes were staring around. The remaining three people who were now standing were staring at him sharply.

"So this is how an Alka works?" the guy's squealing. "Coward!" continued sneering.

Alka sat Meira who was crying on the bike and approached the three men.

"Not cowardly. But clever."

Bugh!

One on three finally happened. Alka swiftly extended her fist at those people. Take a kick several times when needed.

Bugh!

Crews!

Aakh!

He yelled even more as Alka turned him further back.

"Forgiveness.." she looked at the face that had not been formed.

Alka didn't care about that. His emotions have reached the crown. There was no longer a word of calm in him. His blood was already boiling wanting to see his opponent unconscious.

Bugh!

Bugh!

Alka gives a bogeman on the right and left cheeks of the guy.

Bugh!

And lastly, Alka's bogeman on the boy's chin became the guy's blindfold.

***

Already a few hours ago The Lion, Meira, and Hadi were outside the operating room which was still red on the lights. Indicates that the operation is still going on in there even though the clock has turned eight at night.

Alka's eyes had been staring at Meira who was crying a little in Devan's arms. Alka knew the girl must still be scared. Alka just kept quiet, letting Devan calm Meira down.

Not long after, the lights of the room changed color to green. All who sit stand up. The one who stood up straightened his body. The one leaning against the wall pulled back as one female Doctor and two Sisters behind her walked out of the room in an operating uniform.

"What about my mom, Doc?" Alka just stood at the front. His face was flat but it looked into deep concern at the Eagle's eyes.

"My wife's operation went well, didn't it, Doc?" added Hadi asked. The man stood beside Alka with a worried face.

The doctor lowered his mask and looked at Alka and Hadi alternately. He breathed for a moment and replied.

"We apologize. The operation failed because the patient was bleeding so much that his heart weakened. The patient was pronounced dead three minutes ago."

Collapsed is already the world of Alka. The man looked at the doctor. For whatever sake Alka would beat the Doctor if only she forgot that the Doctor was a woman.

All the members of The Lion bowed. Meira's cry broke in Devan's arms.

Hadi himself had lost his balance. The man almost collapsed to the floor if Ezra had not caught his body.

"You don't joke, Doctor! My mom is strong! He has never complained about pain! My mother may not have died!" alka's voice is rising. The man's breath is hunting.

The doctor just nodded. Alka's gaze was so horrible.

"Al, patience. You have to be sincere. Maybe God loves you very much with Auntie Raya."

Alka brushed off the hand of Bagus who was holding her shoulder. Dia—Alka—stepped back and leaned against the hospital wall. His body slowly poured down onto the cold floor.

His eyes looked straight ahead with a blank look.

Her mother has gone. His life purpose no longer exists. His reason for staying strong against the world was to retreat first without waiting for Alka to conquer the world.

Alka was crying in silence. The eyes that used to stare hard were dimly replaced with blank stares and a drop of tears that managed to escape from the corner of his eyes.

Now, Alka is only fighting for her own justice.

***

This morning, everyone present at Mama Alka's funeral bowed with their hearts offering a prayer and their hands looked up.

After that there was a mutter 'Aamiin' from them all in proceed with rubbing the face.

One by one the people dressed in black mourning marks began to leave the burial area. Alka, Hadi, Meira, Hanin and The Lion are still standing faithfully.

Slowly, Alka lowered herself to put her black jeans on the ground on her right knee and her left leg into an elbow.

His hand raised stroked his mother's headstone with a blank look.

Meira positioned herself and stroked Alka's shoulder. Meira also felt lost. Soraya is a strong, patient, and affectionate woman whom Meira once knew. The woman who always made Meira was amazed by her patience. And now He has returned to His lap.

Meira wiped away her returning tears and looked up as Hanin stroked her shoulders.

"Mama first, Dad? Papa you're just gonna go home."

Meira nodded her mother's words and looked back at Alka.

"Sincere brother, yeah. Let Auntie Raya sleep quietly."

There is no response from Alka. The guy just glanced at Meira and then looked back at Mama's vortex.

Hadi bowed his body and kissed his beloved wife's headstone. Pray in your heart that God will give you the best place for your strongest woman.

After that he patted Alka on the shoulder and left. Leaving Alka, Meira and The Lion still standing with their heads bowed.

Just as Alka was about to raise her face to hold back the clear liquid that wanted to come out from the corner of her eyes, her gaze caught the figure of Samuel and Megan standing not far from them.

The two children and the mother also wore all-black clothes with sunglasses perched on their noses.

Alka just stared flat. As his eyes were about to turn, he was again startled by the presence of someone who had just stood beside Samuel.

The man was wearing similar clothes. It was just that there were no sunglasses perched on his nose. And that was when, Alka felt herself as if she had been stung by a high-voltage electric current when the blue eyes of the sea collided with her black eyes.

She's Bianca Kimberly. The girl Alka once loved sincerely.
