Handsome Detective
The Part 99

" Raka_.." Erina was sobbing.

" Happy birthday, Mama." said Raka with a smile then kissed the right and left cheeks of her mother.

Adam brought a complete yellow rice cone with his side dish. Ricko, Sandra, Hans and Delia followed behind Adam.

" Happy birthday, Erina..."

They all hugged Erina in turn. Adam put the stack on the table and then everyone sat on the couch.

" Rin, your husband is healthy...?" ask Adam.

" You know! From there do not wake up - wake up.." said Erina.

" Oh yes, we're eating now. I haven't had breakfast.." whine Hans.

Arvan who heard the noise immediately woke up. He didn't find the wife last night in his arms.

Arvan sat down and turned to look at the sofa that had many people filling the room. They were all laughing like they were having a party.

Raka who realized her father had awoken immediately ran to him.

" Papa...!" Raka hugs Arvan after getting into the gurney.

" Hey, honey, you're so cool today. Why is everyone gathered here...?" asked Arvan confused.

" We're having a little party - a little one for my mom...."

The new Arvan will ask again, stopped by knocking on the door outside. Hans walked to open the door and entered several doctors and senior officials of the hospital, including the head of his own hospital.

" Mr Erina, I as the head of the hospital here represent all the staff and the doctors at this hospital wish you a happy birthday, may you always be happy forever..."

" Thank you, sir. Today I am really very happy." said Erina.

" What's? Birthday...? Gawat, why I didn't know. Even the entire hospital just congratulated. Stupid you're Arvan...!" arvan in the Heart.

" Raka, why don't you tell me you're mom's birthday now." whispered Arvan.

" Don't papa know...?"

" If you knew you wouldn't ask..."

" Any ready - be ready mama mamuk.." said Raka.

" Dear, don't scare papa like that..."

Everyone was now staring intently at the newly awakened Arvan. Erina herself was indifferent and ignored her husband's existence.

The head of the hospital and his subordinates immediately resigned to return to work rather than see the drama of the owner of the hospital.

" Dear, sorry...? I didn't know you had a birthday today." said Arvan, grinning.

" It's okay, anyways I don't need your congratulations." replied Erina cynically.

" Sister Hans, how are Selly and Sam...?" erina asked seriously.

" Selly had to amputate both legs because Raka's shot smashed his bones, while Samuel was still going through a critical period due to three bullets lodged in his chest." Hans replied.

" Finished breakfast, accompany me to see Samuel, brother...?"

" For what...?" ask Hans.

" I don't know, but I really want to meet Samuel." said Erina.

Arvan got out of his bed holding Raka and sat down next to his wife.

" Is he conscious, honey? I want to meet him too. After all, he saved us." said Arvan.

" Sister Arvan took a bath there, his clothes were still there blood so from yesterday did not change..."

" Yes, because last night was very tired so immediately went to sleep not to change clothes..."

" Same as Hans, he also just changed his clothes earlier." said Delia.

" So Hans didn't come home last night...?" ask Hans.

Hans was just grinning while leaning on his lover's shoulder. He had no intention of answering Arvan's question.

" The night she stayed in my room." replied Delia.

" I'm going to take a shower first. Raka, you were with Uncle Adam there." said Arvan.

" Yes, pa..."

All continued Adam's delicious breakfast of yellow rice while waiting for Arvan to take a shower.

Adam feeds Raka painstakingly while sitting in the gurney as the door is knocked from the outside. Adam gave the plate to Raka and opened the door.

" Excuse me, Mister. We want to meet Erina..."

A couple of husband and wife came with slightly pale faces.

" Who are you...?" ask Adam.

" We are the parents of Samuel." replied the middle-aged woman with a sad face.

" Wait here, I'll talk to Erina first..."

Adam went back in and sat down next to Erina hesitantly.

" Who, Dam...?" ask Erina.

" That was Samuel's parents, who wanted to see you." replied Adam.

" Yes, tell them to come in..."

" All right, wait a minute..."

Adam went out to call Samuel's parents. She did not understand why Erina was so receptive to Samuel's parents.

" Om, aunt..."

Erina alternately hugged Samuel's parents whom she considered her own.

" Erina.pardon Samuel. Aunty knows she's guilty, but auntie please don't hate her." said Sam's mother sobbing.

" Aunty don't cry, until whenever Sam is Erina's best friend and I've looked like a brother.." said Erina.

" You don't hate Sam, Erin...?"

" No, aunt. You are the only family that can accept Erina. No matter how bad Sam is to me, he's my brother forever..."

" Thank you, son. Auntie knows you never change, stay as good as you used to be..."

" Erina, we're actually here to ask you to help us see Sam. He was conscious and kept saying your name." said papa Samuel.

" Yes, Om. We're leaving right now..."

" Yes, Son. Auntie's afraid Sam won't have a chance to apologize to you..."

" No, aunt. Sam must have survived..."

Everyone went to Samuel's ICU treatment room. Only Erina and Arvan were allowed to enter the others waiting outside.

" Sam.." call Erina slowly.

Erina could not hold back her tears seeing Sam's condition so severe. His face looked pale, his eyes were soft with tears as their eyes clashed against each other.

" Sam. You must be healed, you must be strong..."

" I'm sorry.I'm sorry, Erin. I'm so stupid.." said Sam.

Samuel's voice was almost inaudible. His breath almost broke.

" No, Sam. You're my best friend, I'll never hate you..."

Erina clasped Sam's hand tightly as she shed tears that kept crying.

" Don't cry, Erin. I don't want your pretty face to fade away because of those useless tears..."

" Sam, you have to hold on. For the sake of your parents and me..."

" I picked up papa and mama, huh...?" said Sam Lirih while enduring the pain throughout his body.

" Sam, you're not going anywhere. We'll stay together like we used to..."

" Sorry, Erin. I can't look after you like I used to. Thanks for last night you wanted to dinner with me at the lake. Even though we don't have time to hang out in the trees like we did in school, I'm relieved that you know I love you so much..."

Arvan watched the two cry. This time there was no jealousy in his heart. He was instead pityed by the fate of Erina and Samuel's friendship that ended tragically.

" I love you, Sam.." said Erina.

" Mister Arvan, to. please take care of Erina. She is actually a girl who sa..ngat le... weak.." said Sam stammered.

" I'll take good care of Erina, you don't have to worry. Erina was surrounded by people who loved her very much." replied Arvan with a smile.

" I'm sorry, su..had hurt Erin..."

" No, Sam. You saved our lives. We say a lot of thanks to you." said Arvan.

" Sam, don't talk like that. We will go up the tree again both, I promise you.." - Erina wailed while wiping her tears.

" Looky girl, don't cry anymore. I want you to promise not to forget our memories. You've found your soul mate now that you can take up a tree like your dream once was. You remember...?"

" Yes, Sam. I remember..."

" My job is done looking after you, it's time for me to go. She lives..mat, Erina Clarissa. Be happy always.not per.nah there are tears of sorrow again, because my hands will not be able to remove it as they once were..."

" Sam...!"

The uhuukkk! The uhuukkk!

" Saaammmm.. nooo!"
