99 Love for You
99CU(S2): Redeeming Sin (2)

...💟💟💟...

Cecilia was taken to a nearby hospital. His four best friends and Ishmael waited faithfully in front of the IGD room.

"What happened to Cecil? Why did he suddenly faint? Or maybe Jimmy did something to her?" Amel was constantly asking.

"No. Jimmy didn't do anything to Cecil" replied Ismail.

"Are you sure?" Radit chimed in.

"Yes. There's a surveillance camera in the room."

Radit looked at Ismail suspiciously.

"Thus ... The one who called Cecil was you? Mr Police?"

"Yes. I called him."

"So you've known all along that Cecil's been back in Jakarta?" Radit is upset that Ismail knows more about Cecil than he does.

"Yes. I already know." Ishmael answered calmly.

"Radit, what are you doing? Why ask the police?" Nadine mediates.

"What is your relationship with Cecilia? Why do you know Cecil's return first than we do, his best friend? I tried to come and get her and persuade her to come back, but she refused." Radit kept on scouting Ismail.

"I am his friend. That'sthat's all. I've heard so many stories about you from Cecilia. You guys are good friends."

"Oh yeah? What are Cecil's stories about us?"

"Already, Dit. Cecil is sick. Why look for a storm?" Amel broke up. "What matters is that Cecil is back."

"May Ms. Cecil be fine." Hana finally spoke.

"The Cecilia Wijaya family!" call a doctor.

"YES!!" the five of them answered simultaneously. And made the doctor frown.

"How's Cecilia doing, Doc?" Radit asked impatiently.

"The conditions are normal, nothing is wrong. Patients suffer from fatigue and stress. I've given him vitamins from the infusion. After the infusion is over, he can go home. Emm, and it's best not to have a lot of people accompanying him. Just one person. Then, excuse me."

"Thank you very much, Doc."

"You heard it yourself, didn't you? The doctor said not too many people accompanied him. Comeing! We're getting out of here. Let Ishmael accompany Cecilia, "Amel told Radit, drawing Radit's hand to leave immediately.

"I want to stay here, Mel. Why isn't he the only one leaving?" reject Radit.

"You are!!! Are your ears deaf? The doctor said only one person was accompanying! Let Ishmael stay here. Besides, I trust the Police Officer more than you. Come on!" Not caring about Radit who thrashed, Amel and Nadine pulled Radit's hand while saying goodbye to Ismail.

Ismail just smiled at the behavior of Cecilia's best friend.

"You're lucky, Cil. For having friends like them." murmured Ismail.

...***...

"Have you heard the news today?"

"Yes, I read it."

"So right if Jimmy auctioned off all of Cecil's belongings? And you just shut up? Is Nayla involved?" Ask Shasha streak.

Alvian massaged his head slowly. "Eitherway. I didn't ask Nayla. He did move to the master room, and move all of Cecil's belongings to the warehouse."

"Cecilia's friends are at the police station. You're not helping them?"

So, Alvian still doesn't know if Cecilia's back? Inner Shasha.

Alvian passed from before Shasha. She was laying her body on the couch in her study. Alvian's career has not improved. Plus the problems that continue to come after the departure of Cecil.

Shasha felt sorry for her best friend. But he knew it was not good to interfere in the household affairs of others. Quite yesterday he had advised Alvian about paying more attention to Nayla.

But for some reason, his heart even became bad after knowing what Nayla did with Cecil's belongings with Jimmy. Although he's still not sure, if Nayla did all this. Shasha believes Jimmy poisoned Nayla's mind.

"You'd better go home and rest. For a while you'll solve your personal problems. I can't force you to work if your mind isn't focused."

Alvian opened his eyes. "Thank you, Sha. I'll go first."

...***...

Ishmael looked at the face of Cecilia who was still unconscious. He was sad to see Cecil's condition.

I want to hold her hand and caress her head. But that's not possible Ismail did. Cecilia has hijab now. It's not worth touching Cecilia without her permission, let alone being a nobody. They're just friends.

"It seems he's got too much in mind. After this, please take care that he keeps his body condition. After she regained consciousness and was feeling well, she was allowed to go home" a nurse said after checking on Cecil's condition.

"Thank you, sister," replied Ismail with a slight smile on his handsome face.

Before long, Cecilia began to squirm. He began to open his eyes slowly. Ismail faithfully waited for Cecil to open his eyes wide.

Cecilia blinked. He watches the situation around him. It's not at the police station anymore, he thought.

"Ismail.". "sap slowly.

"Yes. Are you all right?"

"Hu 'um. What's going on with me?"

"You passed out at the police station. Then we brought you here. All your friends are home."

"thank you. Did you tell my mom?"

"No. He'll be worried. You can go home anyway if your condition improves."

"Act ... I know it's not the right time, but ... You better not have too much thought. I'm sorry, I have to talk like this because of me... You've heard all your conversations with Jimmy."

Cecilia looked at Ishmael. "It's time for everything to come out."

"Ivana Lee's case, which occurred five years ago, has been closed as a case of suicide. So .. please don't blame yourself anymore. It's not all your fault."

"But he killed himself because of us, Ishmael. Because I'm ..." Clear circles began to wet Cecil's face again.

"No, Cil. That's not true. He himself decided to end his life."

Cecilia cried. "Do you know what his mother told me? He said, I have covered my body with a hijab, then do I also cover my heart with a hijab? I felt so ashamed of him, Ismail." Cecil's cry grew louder.

"Cil, there are no really good people in the world, everything needs a process to be good. But, there was also no one who was a hundred percent evil. You came back because you wanted to rearrange your life. Then do. Don't think about anything else. Think about your mother..."

Cecil wiped his tears. What Ishmael said was right. He shouldn't be so weak. He must be strong, strong, for his mother's sake.

"Thank you, Ismail. Sorry if I'm troubling you..."

"Either. No need to talk to me."
