Moments before Amanda calls Arka. When Arka was busy fishing, Nino there had time to call and ask about the whereabouts of his brother.
"Where is Lo, Bambang?" ask Nino to Arka.
"For nemenin papa fishing, Nin."
"What fishing?. Angling widows?"
"Haha, anjir. In fishing, Solihin."
"Both doang?"
"Some, there's Rio, the father, there's daddy too. Didn't meet on purpose."
"Oh, daddy's there?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"Hmm, pantesan no one nyamperin me. On each other's ass, anyway."
"Ansel didn't go there?" ask Arka.
"Ansel again you tanyain, do not know the child already stuck in which tree."
"Hahaha, molor's a child for sure."
"Not anymore, I don't know Ansel. If not molor, yes dating the same Intan."
"So you're alone, huh?" ask Arka.
"Who else would I be with."
"Where's nadine?"
"Ke Bandung with his parents, condangan."
"Oh, kirain sama lo."
"Somewhat, where there is. Uh, ka tanyain daddy dong. When do I go home?. I'm really here mulu."
"Don't, Nin. Daddy told you, let's just get there first. If there is anything, the doctor and nurse can nanganin lo. Luka lo is serious, Nin. Not healed yet, that's."
"But I bete, Ka. What a try my job is to sleep like this."
"Keep up, what?. Want to build an overpass, keep it busy." asked Arka..
Nino laughs.
"Anjir." he said later.
"Yes, be patient first. If it's really healthy, just come home."
Nino sighed, suddenly someone opened the door of her room.
"Stay, Ka. There's a date, doctor kali. I'll call again."
"Ok, ok." replied Arka later. The phone connection was eventually terminated.
Nino saw a nurse and three other people coming in. One man, roughly the age of Ryan. He was also a man, probably his age. And one more...
"Degh." Bathin Nino rumbles.
"This aunt, right?"
Nino recalls talking to the woman in the front garden, when Ansel took her in search of sunlight last time.
"Aunty?" nino said speaking to the woman. The woman approached, smiling but crying.
"Nino, it's your mother."
The sister who is none other than Sister Zefanya said to Nino. Nino was confused.
"I, mother?" ask her later.
The woman's tears began to flow and made Nino even more astonished.
"Ma, what does that mean?" ask her later.
"Your mother was kidnapped, shepherded, and raped. By a man named Amman."
A man of Ryan's age also said. It was Aston, the husband of the woman who was now crying in front of him. Nino was becoming more and more clueless.
"Who are you, what do you mean?"
Nino's tone began to sound riled up, because he really did not know who these people were. He had only met the woman once and they were involved in a number of conversations. But Nino thought that the woman was just another patient's family.
"Nino, what they say is true. Watch me carefully, see who I am?"
Sister Zefanya looked at Nino, Nino had not been so aware since just now. Because the nurse is now getting older.
"They?" Nino watched Sister Zefanya once again.
He remembers the last time he met the woman a dozen years ago. He always called the name of Sister Zefanya with such a name, since childhood. No big brother, aunt, or whatever. Even if Sister Zefanya is much older than him.
"Yes, Nin. It's me, Fanya."
Nino's heart started to get restless, she felt that something was wrong with her past.
Sister Zefanya also began to tell everything to Nino, including herself who helped the man's birth process.
"So once I was born, was I banished and given to someone else?"
Nino's tears began to spread in the eyes, her tone full of vengeance. While Citra who had been crying since then, became increasingly sobbing.
"Nino, you were confused."
"Don't say that" Nino said with emotions slowly mounting, she was so angry that she called herself "Mama."
"OK." The image took a breath and wiped away her tears.
"We promised to get married, but your father took me captive and raped me every day. You imagine how angry and vengeful I was back then, when I had to conceive you. Containing a child forced into my womb."
Nino's tears fell, there was a rage that was now ready to explode in his heart.
"I had no other choice, Nino. My life was destroyed by your father. I need my life back, I don't want to keep staring at you. While you have her face and all my bad memories of her."
"Who's the guy?" Nino asked as she stared intently at Citra.
"His name is Armando Othild Louis, or better known to those with the call of Amman. Ryan knows the guy well." This time Aston answered.
"We ask for your help to ensnare the man, by doing a DNA test. As proof that you really are the child that Citra once conceived and the result of Amman's crimes." Aston is back.
"I'm sorry, Nino."
The image approached and tried to touch Nino's hand.
"Go...!"
Nino said with a tone full of emphasis, but with a slow tone and seemed cold.
"Nil."
"Go...!" he said once again.
Aston drew the image that he still wanted to be in that place. With tears, he stepped. Followed by Aaron, and also sister Zefanya.
Nino closed her eyes, and let her tears now flow. There was a pain that hit his heart.
***
A few moments before the arrival of Citra and the others. Nino calls Ansel, but his brother doesn't answer. He also tries to call Arka, but Arka is also the same as Ansel. Finally, he called Amanda.
"Man."
"What, Nin?"
"Where are you?"
"At home."
"Why so?"
"Here, Abis is feeding the twins. Waiting for them to sleep, why Nin?"
"Today dong, Man. Fried rice with sotang."
Amanda laughs.
"Where's daddy's anal?"
"Ansel did not know, again ventured, looking for the scriptures."
Amanda laughed again.
"Daddy does not know where, he will rarely hold a cellphone if it's vacation."
"Not to be bothered with the business of the times, he. It's a habit in us, holidays are still at work."
"Yes." said Nino later.
"Today dong, Man. I bete, where can't go home yet." he continued.
"Yes, yeah, no more. I want to call the mother who takes care of the children first, tell her to come here. All for a short shower.
"Where are you going, sleeping?"
"No, it was at his parents' house."
"Pantes, I didn't call either."
"Well, I take care of the kids first, Nin."
"Ok, don't forget the fried rice as the sotangnya."
"Yes, I brought a lot" Amanda said.
The conversation was then stopped, Amanda put the twins to bed and then took a shower. Nino's whims came back to call Arka and was picked up. Then, came Citra and the others who stopped the conversation between them.
Now, Nino's world has been quiet for a dozen years. It became chaotic instantly, just because of the arrival of those people.
He was no longer strong enough to stand up. Unfortunately, his parents did not love him very much. He always felt that he was not their son. And it turns out it's all true.
It has been rejected in all life. In the lives of his biological parents, and in the lives of his adoptive parents. Only Ryan and his late wife sincerely opened their arms wide, and gave him a place in their hearts.
Only the two old men deserved to be called father and mother. Not even a hint of Ryan's blood flowed through his body. But that did not diminish the man's affection for him.
Nino's tears continued to flow, before long she felt she had to go to the toilet. Because there was no nurse who was near him, and again he was able to stand and walk even though slowly. Nino then went to the toilet, while carrying the infusion following her holder.
He kept thinking about Citra and sister Zefanya saying to him, and it made him really stressed. When he turned around and was about to get out of the toilet, he suddenly felt a great pain in his wound.
"Aaach." he cried and tried to take a breath.
The longer the pain increases. Until Nino also fell and the part of his body that had wounds, jolted about the end of the closet. Then everything was dark.
Amanda arrives and finds Nino not in bed. He thinks Nino went to the toilet, the woman put down her luggage and tried to call Nino.
"Mrs."
There's no answer. He went to look out, in case Nino was taken by a nurse. But there's none either. And for some reason, Amanda felt suspicious about the bathroom and toilet. Out of curiosity he pushed the door, apparently not locked.
"Ninooo."
Amanda screamed when she found her brother's body lying unconscious.
She called the nurse and the others. Nino finally got help and treatment. But the doctor tells Amanda, if Nino's current state, is not okay.
