"More." Alka caught a paperbag thrown by Bagus into her lap.

Tonight Alka is in the hospital with a core member of The Lion. His goal was to visit the sick Mama Alka.

"This what?" he was confused to see the paperbag.

"It was from the Bocil, he said the same jacket you wore that time he wore."

Alka nodded in response to Good.

"She also said thanks and sorry" chirped Devan who got a confused look from Alka.

"I'm sorry?" parrot Alka.

Devan nodded then sat down on the waiting chair near Alka. Followed by Bagus.

"I'm sorry for making you angry earlier."

Alka's thoughts went back to earlier when she snapped at Meira. Actually Alka had no intention to yell at Meira, but the news of her mother's worsening condition made her dizzy until she unconsciously vented her to Meira.

"May-May told me everything. And he felt guilty for making you angry until he finally snapped."

Devan's words again made Alka silent. Shouldn't that be mad at Meira? Why did he apologize?

"Gue had no intention of snapping at him" Alka replied, slowly.

Devan nodded in understanding.

"Gue knew how you felt at the time. Even if I was in your position at that time, I would have done the same thing. But my advice, don't take everything to Meira."

Alka stared confusedly at Devan who was also looking at her normally.

"Outlook?"

Devan shrugged his shoulders indifferently.

"Without you realizing it, Meira became your emotional outlet at that time," said Devan.

Alka sighed softly. There was a little guilt in him. He felt like he was not the self that easily vented his emotions on others.

"Sorry, I'm ga---"

"Alka!" alka's speech was cut off when her papa's voice that had just come out of her mother's ward.

"Night, Om Hadi," said Devan and then crucified the hand of Papa Alka–Hadi Mahardika– as well as Bagus and others.

Hadi only smiled in response and then refocused on Alka.

"Your mama is inside." Alka nodded at a glance then entered into her mother's ward.

Immediately the smell of the drugs lurked into the sense of smell of Alka. Alka's footsteps were heavy towards the gurney of the woman she loved so much. Soraya Mahardika's.

"Mama-Mama...." Slowly the closed eyes of the woman opened. A faint thin smile was imprinted on his pale face when he saw his only child.

"Darling?" Alka nodded then tightly hugged Soraya's thin body.

The woman chuckled in her weak voice as Alka hugged her thin body. His hand moved caressing Alka's black mane.

"You healthy, son?" Alka shook her head in her mother's arms.

"Why? You're late to eat again, hm?" Alka shook her head again until the pain appeared on the beautiful face of the woman.

"Alka was sick to see Mama kayak gini." slowly tears came down from the middle-aged woman's eyes when she heard Alka's reply. In his kiss the top of Alka's head with affection.

"Guard your health, son. Eat it regularly. Mom can't make your favorite food." Soraya rubbed Alka's hair gently. "And please don't fight anymore."

Alka tightened her embrace on Soraya.

"Alka must have eaten a regular origin with Mama's cooking."

"But Mama can't love, Mama's sick."

Alka let go of her embrace and wiped away the trail of tears that came out of Soraya's beautiful eyes.

"Then from that, please Mama is healthy for Alka." His ink was very, the guy's eyes looked flushed with tears.

"Mama dear to you Alka, you're Mama's only fighting friend. Mama was proud to have a child like you." The woman's tears fell back in the corner of her eyes.

Alka's hand moved to wipe away the tears coming out from the corner of Soraya's eye.

"Don't cry, because every drop of water that comes out of Mama's eyes is like a curse to Alka." Alka gave a glimpse of her mother's forehead.

The woman smiled and hugged her son.

"Thank you for taking care of Mama all this time, you're Mama's greatest child. Please take care of your health, just Mama who suffers, son. And please... Don't hate your brother."

"Alka don't have a brother, Ma!" The woman smiled faintly, she knew Alka had not been able to reconcile with her brother.

"But she's still your real sister, son."

"So. He's Megan's son, I'm not his brother!" Soraya tightened her arms and then kissed Alka's head.

"Judek. But you have to promise, well, same Mama, if you will stay healthy until anytime." Alka nodded at a glance.

"Please take care of Papa for Mama. You're my only hope, son. If one day Mama leaves, don't you be sad, Dad? Mama will definitely stay by your side."

"Don't say that, Ma. I don't like it!" the guy's voice sounded a little raucous.

"What can you do, son? It's Mama's destiny." Soraya wiped her tears slowly. "Alka, do you know what Mama is most afraid of?" Alka shook her head making the woman smile.

"Mama is most afraid when you find your companion and Mama's time is up" Soraya replied with tears returning.

Alka silently shed her tears in her mother's arms. Who wouldn't be weak if faced with a mother? Want as hard as Alka's heart, she still has a great love for a woman of his worship all this time. Soraya, his real mother.

####

The little boy was seen enjoying ice cream with his brother. Both of them dissolved in the sweetness of the ice cream on that garden chair.

"Sister, my ice cream is over... Adek still wants to," said the little boy who is around 5 years old.

"Telus what's a fine brother?" reply the other with a plain face. They look like twins with age differences that are only a few months apart.

"Buy me again...."

"But big brother's money lives on the deck."

"Don't want to know! Anyway buyin.." the boy put on a sullen face like he wanted to cry to make his brother could not bear.

"Ok, don't you cry, Dad? I bought it, huh!"

The boy cheered cheerfully and hugged his brother.

"Yeah!! Thank you, sister, I love you, Brother Alka!" Little Alka just nodded then ran to the ice cream seller.

Until finally left 8 meters from the ice cream seller, his mouth suddenly stamped by someone. Little Alka thrashed, but unfortunately the next second darkness surrounded her vision.

The black car went to take little Alka somewhere. A few minutes later they reached an old hut in the forest.

The sunlight that pierced through the small holes of the roof of the hut made the small eyes of Alka slowly open.

"I where?" his inner.

The boy's eyes went all over the corner of the hut, until finally his eyes fell on his legs tied with ropes and a black latban stuck in his mouth.

"Hmmptt. Hmm.gt...." The little Alka thrashed in the hope that the bond would be released from her legs and hands. But alas, he was just a powerless little boy.

The door of the hut opened, little Alka narrowed her eyes as the silhouette of a woman's body entered the hut.

"Mommy?" inner surprised.

"Wgtc...."

The woman chuckled then squatted in front of the little Alka. Opening the black latban that covered the little boy's mouth violently until Alka cried out in pain.

"Mommy?" surprised muttering. The woman laughed like a demon and then gripped Alka's little chin.

"Why, hm? Surprised darling?"

"Please me! Bad mom!"

Little Alka closed her eyes as the rough slap landed on her cheek. A thick red liquid dripped down at the corner of her tiny lips. Then her crying sounded right then and there.

"I'm not your mom!" the woman was angry.

"I'm Megan Mahardika with only one child and it's not you!!"

Megan grabbed the little black Alka hair that was a little long and then threw it rough.

"Why is Mami evil like Alka?"

Megan laughed then stood looking down on Alka.

"You're a fucking carrier! Papa you have been unfair since your presence! He is more concerned with you than my son!"

"But Al-"

Plaque!

"DON'T TALK BOY!!"

The corner of Alka's small lips returned to bleed, the clear liquid had already escaped in the corner of her eyes. The crying became. The woman he had considered mother was no more than a demon.

"BAD MOM! ALKA HATES MAMI!!"

Megan did not hesitate to scratch the folding knife in Alka's arm and slapped the boy as he shouted in front of her.

Little Alka cried out in pain amidst her cries. On his right arm was fresh blood that soaked the floor. Megan laughed triumphantly as she saw little Alka roaring in pain.

"Happy Alka, enjoy your nights here, baby."

Megan smiled slantingly and then walked out of the hut, leaving Alka hysterical with blood continuing to flow from her arms.

Day by day little Alka passed by silently in that dark hut. Every day he was fed only a packet of bread without drinking water. The sound of a beast had already become his sleep-deliver. The incision wound on his right arm in the fabric liliti with unhygienic.

"Mama... Alka kangen mom...." Little Alka came back crying. Not long after his ears heard the roar of a wild animal. Little Alka started to tremble, her eyes moving cautiously.

Little by little the sound was getting closer until Alka felt the animal that owned the sound was in front of the hut.

"Mama, Alka was afraid.." The tears were increasingly rushing to form a stream of small rivers on her face.

Brak!

Alka's eyes widened when she saw an orange-colored animal with black stripes smashing through the door of the hut and looking at her sharply. Alka was trembling more and more, her hands clenching silently in the big rope tie.

"CURL!!" he shouted at the tiger. Instead of leaving, the tiger was getting closer towards Alka with sharp fangs on its teeth.

"CURL!!" the tiger was getting closer to Alka until finally the tiger jumped ready to pounce on Alka.

"Amkkhh!"

"Amkkhh!" Nice and Devan who slept on the big sofa of Alka's room jumped out of his sleep when he heard Alka screaming like a frightened person.

The two ran over to Alka who was moving restlessly in her sleep.

"Al's? Hey, Alka's sober!" Nice patting Alka's cheek slowly but the guy kept moving uneasily.

Devan who saw there was water on the nightstand immediately splashed it into Alka's face, and succeeded.

"GO!" Alka shouted towards Bagus and Devan until both of them jumped in shock.

"Lo why, Al? Are you angry because I cipratin water? Sorry, I don't mak-"

"GO!!" devan's words were cut off as Alka shouted back.

"Lo why, anyway, Al?"

Alka got up from her bed and strangled the nearby Bagus.

Good who had gotten a sudden attack could only pat Alka's hand that was strangling her neck.

"Lo crazy, Al? She's nice woy!" Alka turned to stare at Devan who was trying to remove her hand from Nice's neck.

Devan was stunned, Alka's eyes which were indeed black turned even blacker.

"A-al lo-eye"

Bugh!

Devan bounced off as a kick floated in his stomach. He quickly woke up and pulled back the hand of Alka from Bagus who started to pale.

"HE TEMEN US ALKA!!" devan's screams echoed.

Alka's emotions get ignited, she releases her giggles from Bagus and approaches Devan.

Good itself directly scooped up oxygen greedily. He almost died because of Alka.

Bugh!

Bugh!

Two bogeman land on Devan's cheek and heart. The guy spits sideways as blood comes out of his mouth, Alka's punch never messes around.

After feeling enough with the oxygen he breathed, Bagus approached Alka blindly at Devan.

But only a few steps did Good stop when his eyes accidentally caught something on the back of Alka's left hand.

"Tattoo scorpion? Since when does Alka wear tattoos?" batin Bagus. Good to shake his head, now he has to save Devan first.

It was good to catch Alka's arms and then bring her behind the guy's back.

"Take me off!!" good eyebrows fused when they heard the sound of Alka sounding heavier and hoarse than usual.

"Aka really why, anyway?" inner curious.

"Alka aware! We're your friends, I'm good and he's Devan!" said Good while pointing at himself and Devan alternately.

"Please! I want to kill him!"

"Alka aware! Lo why, hell, weird gini?!" Good trying to patiently address Alka. If the fire is met with fire, everything will explode. Good didn't want that to happen between him and Alka.

Nice eyes fall on Alka's hair.

"Brown? Wasn't Alka's hair always black?" batin Bagus asked again.

Good felt Alka suddenly weakened in her confinement. The guy seemed to shake his head like he was dispelling pain.

It was good to lead Alka to sit on the bed, after which she approached the battered Devan.

"Alka why, anyway, Gus?" Good to shake no idea, he led Devan to sit on the sofa then gave the P3K box they prepared in the Alka drawer.

"Obatin lo's wound." Devan nodded. Then start opening the medicine box and treating the bruise.

"Van, you see something not in Alka's body?" Devan frowned confusedly on the sidelines of his activities.

"You mean?"

"Gue had accidentally seen a scorpion tattoo on the back of Alka's left hand when she beat you." Nice eyes faithfully panned straight at Alka who was back asleep.

"Tattoo scorpion?" Good nods.

"Gue didn't see that. All I see is Alka's eyes getting black."

Nice turned to look at Alka who started to wake up after a few minutes. The guy looks to be massaging his head.

"Lo all right, Al?" Alka stared at Nice who was on the sofa with narrowed eyes.

"What am I doing?"

Good looking not believing in Alka. Moreover, Devan who stopped his activities and then joined staring at Alka with a face look not out of thought.

"Lo said why? You forget what you did to me and Devan?" Nicely pointed Devan at a glance.

Alka turned to stare at Devan who was treating her wound on the sofa.

"Why is Devan battered?"

Next the mouth of Good opened with a look of disbelief.
