Kirana was sitting next to the bed of Mega's room, her heart feeling very sad to see the mother closed with an infusion hose attached to her left hand, behind her brown hijab part of her hair is shaved off with a bandage attached to cover the wound eight stitches. Doctors say that the wound experienced by Bu Mega is only a torn wound that requires a stitch wound to close it, he said, fortunately there is no bleeding inside but doctors recommend that Mega still have to be hospitalized to see further development.

“What are they really, Tea? Anybody know them?”

Currently live Kirana and Oka who are in the VVIP room where Mega bu treated while Caraka is to the police station to take care of the affairs there.

“Teh! Anybody know them?” Kirana nodded in response. “Who are they? Why is he doing all this?”

During this time Kirana did not want to tell the incident that happened to her mother and her sister because they did not want to be sad, but now it seems she has to tell the truth. Kirana stood up and walked towards the sofa in the room, without telling Oka to sit next to Kirana who started telling her about the incident a few months ago.

“Why keep new story now?” Oka looks angry to hear Kirana's story.

“Sttt, don't be noisy! Later Mamah wake up.”

Irritated Oka sat back down. “Should have told the story!” oka's voice was slow but full of emphasis and anger. “I'll kill them all, who dare to touch!”

Kirana's heart was engulfed in a sense of haru, feeling protected by her little sister.

“They are not random people we can touch.”

“Hah! I don't care how powerful they are, for sure they won't survive in my hands.”

“Kakang and Papah have given their punishment, and now they have been arrested by the authorities and we will make sure this time they will not escape.”

Oka was silent even though her face still shone with anger and annoyance.

“But how do they know that they are now living in Surabaya? How did they know they lived in that apartment?”

Oka asked the question that had been raging in her baby.

How does Ferdi Izam know that he currently lives in Surabaya? Hasn't he been in Borneo all this time? What coincidence? No, because she even knew which unit Kirana lived in, meaning that before today they had been watching her

And the answers to those questions finally came when about 2am Caraka came from the police station.

“How is mamah?” Caraka asked while watching Bu Mega who fell asleep after taking medicine a while ago.

“The results of the CT scan are good no internal bleeding, mamah experience symptoms of concussion of the brain. Last night had dizziness and vomiting - vomiting, now not vomiting just still dizzy probably due to stitches in the wound tear as well.”

Caraka nodded in understanding, he now looked at Kirana who looked very tired with the injuries that were now turning blue.

“You also need rest, even need treatment.” Caraka stroked Kirana's head, her eyes staring at the bruises on her face and other parts of her lover's body, which Kirana replied with a smile.

“I'm fine, the doctor checked me and I've had enough rest. Replace with Oka.”

Caraka now looks at Oka who fell asleep in the patient's waiting mattress. He deliberately took the VVIP room so that Oka and Kirana felt comfortable while accompanying their mother.

“You must also be very tired.” Kirana held Caraka's hand towards the sofa then sat on it. “You should just go home to the hotel, and rest there.”

“What do you think, I can relax while you are here.” Caraka looked at Kirana with sad eyes before then hugging her. “Sorry, again I came late.”

Kirana smiled and hugged him back. “You came on time, as always there when I really needed you.”

This was the first time they had spoken to each other after last night. After the security and police came to arrest Ferdi and his friends, they went straight to the hospital carrying the unconscious Mega Bu. During Kirana and Oka's time in the hospital, several police officers come to ask for information from the two of them, caraka went straight to the police station in addition to giving information as well to make sure they would not get away with it.

“Sorry you have to experience this all ... it's my fault.”

“What do you mean? You are not wrong anything.” Kirana looked into Caraka's eyes that were emitting guilt.

“They did that because ... want to repay my deeds to them first.”

Kirana looked at Caraka in disbelief at what she heard.

“You did that because you defended me. They deserve all of that, even they should get more punishment.” Kirana looked a little emotional hearing the reason they were doing this all. “They harassed me, all you did was defend my honor. And now they're retaliating for that reason? They're really jerks! Baj*ngan jerk!”

Caraka nodded in agreement. “This time there will be no mercy. They were caught at the scene, a lot of evidence and witnesses, it was enough to take them to jail.”

Kirana nodded in agreement, but then she was again overwhelmed with curiosity.

Caraka was silent, for a moment she looked doubtful.

Indeed, when he found out the identity of Bi who turned out to be Anggi Santoso, in addition to being surprised Caraka was also filled with fear. But his fear disappeared after hearing Kirana's words when returning from Pacet, feeling relieved also grateful for having a lover who had an open mind and realistic not only rely on feelings. Although Caraka knows there must have been an inner war in her lover, but as usual Kirana can definitely think with a cold head.

But now would he still think clearly when he found out that his sister was the one who told Ferdi about his current location? Maybe he is the brain behind it all? Will he be able to accept it?

On the one hand he wanted to hide that fact from Kirana because he did not want her to get hurt again, on the other hand he did not want Kirana to know it from others, and become the last person to know after becoming even more chaotic.

“Introgated police found something in Ferdi's phone Izam.” Kirana looked at Caraka seriously. “Someone told him about your whereabouts here.”

Kirana furrowed her brows in confusion. “Who?”

“Police is asking for his testimony as a witness. They will contact us when they have the results.”

“Who?” Kirana asked again. “Do I know him?” his face now looked serious, his eyes were sharp looking at Caraka who looked doubtful.

“Bi .. Anggi Santoso. He told you where you are here.”

His face paled, his tongue was like he didn't know what to say or react to. Maybe if he doesn't know that Anggi is Bi, the sister he's been looking for and he misses. Kirana would instantly cursing and let out all her anger.

But now different, just yesterday Kirana was surprised by the real identity of Anggi if he is his own biological sister whose identity has been changed in such a way, and now he's again surprised by the reality that makes his life back like a rollercoaster.

Andi Santoso was sitting in his car that cut through the streets of Surabaya with mixed feelings after last night Bayu, his brother, and his brother, contacting and giving news that made him decide to return to Surabaya with his father who had just finished treatment.

“Mulio, your son your goleki. (Home home, your son is looking for you)”

“Grandmother opo meneh arek iku? (Due to what other problems is the child?)”

“Sit ... dhuduk Anggi seng golek your crew, but .. Kirana karo Oka.” (No, it wasn't Anggi who was looking for you, it was Kirana and Oka)

Andi Santoso was silent, even for a moment he seemed to forget to breathe, his eyes were rounded between surprise and disbelief with what he heard.

“Who? Mas Bayu said who?”

“Kirana, your son seng wes suwi not your friend temoni. (Your long-time child you haven't met).”

At that time he could not say anything, his body felt weak with various kinds of raging feelings .. surprised, happy, but also afraid. Afraid to see how later his daughter would look at him with disappointment and possibly hatred.

However, his daughter's response later, Andi Santoso was impatient to meet the eldest daughter, but his desire had to be delayed again when he reached the house his wife welcomed with a cry, and told that Anggi was taken to the police station to be questioned.

“You've contacted Rendra?” his happiness was also nervous because he wanted to meet his eldest daughter, now turned into anxiety to think of his second daughter who was facing interrogation by the police.

“Already, earlier Rendra went directly there to accompany Anggi.”

Andi Santoso pulled out his cell phone to contact Birendra, his family's lawyer.

“How is Anggi?”

Without further ado Andi Santoso immediately asked the state of his daughter.

“Until now the status is still a witness.” Andi Santosa breathed a sigh of relief. “Now Anggi is talking to the victim.”

Andi Santoso was silent. “Who is the victim?”

There was silence across there just before Birendra finally replied, “Calon Mahesa's son-in-law.”

Instantly Andi Santoso massaged his temple thinking it would be very difficult if if the status of Anggi changed from a witness to a suspect when the victim was Mahesa. He also did not expect that his daughter would act this far. While in Singapore he did not follow the news in the country other than reports from his office, so he did not know who the figure of Mahesa's daughter-in-law. It's just that when deciding Caraka's matchmaking with Anggi, Rudi Mahesa said that Caraka has someone she likes and this time looks serious.

“Is Caraka Mahesa there?”

“Iya.”

“I'm there now, make an appointment with Caraka .. say I want to talk to her and also ... her fiance.”

Andi Santoso knows that Anggi likes Caraka Mahesa from their first meeting, and he also knows Anggi's spoiled and stubborn nature of wanting something he has to get it. It was her fault for overindulging her .. not without reason she indulged and always obeyed whatever she wanted, it was all because of the guilt on her two daughters, especially … his eldest daughter whom he had left 20 years ago.
