Days without Asa, like a flowerless garden to Altair. It feels empty and has no passion for life, especially no news about his lover.
Altair continued to play the ring on her ring finger, sitting at the very corner without caring about the surroundings, even though a commotion was going on in the classroom.
"I shouldn't be sad, right? I should have waited patiently for you. We promised to wait for each other" he said, staring at his engagement ring.
It was as if the ring was Asa.
"I know you must be really kangen, right? Same with me, Sa. Wait for me yes, I'll be followed after graduating from school, but I hope you go home before that."
The act of talking itself continues to occur in the corner of the room, making Mark and Fely who have since noticed his best friend's fiancee look at each other.
Mark flicked his shoulders, giving an answer that he had no idea what Altair was up to.
"Surely she's sad, Mark. We'll entertain yuk?" bring Fely.
"No, why try? Mending us to the canteen. I paid for it today!" bring Mark back. Most anti-talk with Altari whose anger has been explosive lately.
The two then left the class, leaving Altair feeling lonely because they had no friends.
Not because no one wants to be friends with him, only he who stayed away because it does not fit with them. Altair prefers to be alone or with Asanya.

A week went by so quickly. Today is a day of decision-making for Samuel and Ara about the life of her hopeless daughter.
Samuel and Ara stood in front of the room covered in translucent glass. Staring at their daughter's pale face with a sad look.
"Until now there has been no development, sir."
"Is there no other way? Like the potion the researchers developed?"
"We've never had this condition before, sir. The compilation was too severe that we could not detect the damage. Initially Asa's body received a donor heart quite well, but 24 hours of heart beat occurs weakened."
Samuel let out a long sigh, clasping his wife's hand quite tightly.
"Don't punish my father like gini, Sa. Don't make me feel more guilty. Get up, and maki dad! Blame the father who took you away from Altair" Samuel said.
This was the second time Samuel had felt such deep sadness. The first sorrow when he was left by Ara for decades.
"There is no way but to remove all the tools" said the doctor and answered a nod by Ara despite doubts.

"I can't be sad!" he made a quick move and threw the ball into the ring. Unfortunately the ball missed because it was passed in a hurry.
"I'm fine!" Again, Altair did the same.
Too much movement makes Altair's body filled with sweat. Her hair was wet, her breath was hunting. The muscular body collapsed on the floor after moving for nearly two hours.
He closed his eyes, smiling as the shadow of Asa running around hugging him flashed past.
"I don't want to open my eyes" he murmured. Enjoy the shadow of Asa that is too beautiful to miss.
Whether it's just a dream or a dream without sleep. What was clear, Altair saw her lover dancing in the flower garden with a white dress wrapped around her body.
The girl's hair was broken, her beautiful smile was visible while looking at her.
"Dad!" Altair's reflex opened her eyes when Asanya tripped over wood as she was about to approach him.
The man's breathing hunted down, rubbing his rough face to make it calmer.
"Altair!"
Altair flirted, the man was lazy to welcome the arrival of his papa.
"Have you heard of Asa, son?"
"Will be?" Altair's laziness seemed to be gone. The man immediately woke up and looked at his face with a trace of hope.
"Have you heard, son?" Rayhan's birthday and answered by Altair.
"Om Samuel just called Papah. Asa failed in her battle. He died without being able to return to keep his promise."
"Oh, at least you want to prank Altair." The man laughed discordantly, but only pervertedly when the look on his papa's face did not change.
The face-lout was full of worry and sadness while looking at him.
"No way!"
