Arshad placed the flower on the grave of his mother, this time he was more determined, no longer allowing tears to flow and no longer allowing pain to whack his heart. In fact, now he is grateful that God did not take his life or that two unborn children would be orphans. Now Arsyad's only goal is one, fight for Aira and take responsibility for her children.
After pleading and continue to plead with Doctor Satyo and Doctor Patrick, now finally Arsyad was allowed out of the hospital to make a pilgrimage to the tomb of Ummi Ridha, Arsyad who suffered a broken bone still had to be in a wheelchair.
Arsyad made a pilgrimage with Doctor Patrick because he had to make sure Arsyad was okay, and Michael who felt sorry for Arsyad also accompanied Arsyad.
Micheal's presence on Arsyad's side makes Doctor Patrick think that Arsyad is still Aira's husband.
"I'm sorry if I haven't been able to make Ummi happy all this time" said Arsyad Lirih, he slightly bowed so that he could touch the gravestone bearing his mother's name. "I'm sorry..." Arsyad took a deep breath, trying to calm his rumbling back heart. "I'm sorry I couldn't bring Ummi home." Arsyad's breath stuck in his throat and he calmed down a little as Micheal hugged his shoulder, as if saying everything would be fine.
After he finished praying, Doctor Patrick took Arsyad back to the hospital. During the trip, the three men were silent, as if busy with their own thoughts.
Arsyad who could not move much just sat down and stared out blankly, as well as Micheal, he threw his gaze out. Now they are like lovers who are fighting.
"Why didn't Aira come home, Micheal? Her husband is sick again" Doctor Patrick said, glancing at Arsyad from the rear-view mirror.
"He's..."
"I'll be there" interrupted Arsyad cutting off Micheal's speech.
"Yes, maybe in 3 months you can get there" said Doctor Patrick.
"No way, in 3 months Aira will give birth. I want to get there as soon as possible" said Arsyad full of determination.
"Oh so.." murmured Doctor Patrick. "Then we must work to heal you."

While in the village of Firda, Ummi Firda is now talking to Aira and Aira is telling about Javeed. Of course Ummi Firda was surprised and he asked Aira to keep his distance in order to keep the good name of Aira, also to avoid possible slander.
"You're still in iddah time, son. You should not be wandering especially to go abroad, you must be good at taking care of yourself."
"Yes, Ummi. I really didn't realize I had crossed the line, Ummi. I'm really worried right now, I'm afraid what Nida said is true."
"You speak kindly to the man, recreate that boundary line but remember, don't offend anyone, let alone you're in a foreign country, with strangers. You really have to take care of yourself."
"Yes, Ummi. God willing, Ummi pray for me, yes."
"Always, Son. A mother will always pray for her child, no need to ask. Oh yeah, don't forget to check your contents, take care of your health."
"It's God, Ummi" replied Aira. "Ummi, is Abi talking about something?" Ask Aira later.
"About what?" Ummi Firda asked back.
"Mas Arsyad." came Aira's voice from across the phone.
"Said Doctor Patrick Arsyad suffered quite severe fractures in both legs, he also suffered injuries to his head."
"Oh Allah" murmured Aira.
"And the woman, Hulya said she was gone."
"Wine? Go where?"
"Ummi doesn't know, but said Hulya, they and their family no one came to the hospital again after Arsyad realized."
^^Lahore, Pakistan.^^^
Aira looked at her reflection in the mirror, she was holding her stomach that was getting bigger and bigger.
Aira remembered what her mother said. Gracefully gone? Wh why? Whither? Though all this time Anggun did everything to be with Arsyad.
"That's none of your business, Ai...."Aira exclaimed to herself.
He had just finished talking to his mother on the phone, and Aira was able to calm down because she knew the more days Arsyad's condition was getting better.
"Via.." call Aira as she hears someone's voice in front.
"Via.." call Aira louder, she immediately picked up her veil and Aira was surprised to see the door open wide.
Aira shouted back to call Via but the boy did not reply. Aira panicked, looking for Nida's house, but Via wasn't there.
"Maybe the same Javeed, Ai," said Nida's mother.
"But not usually Javeed take Via without permission, Auntie," said Aira anxiously..
"Don't worry, brother. Let me call Javeed," replied Nida. He immediately took his cell phone but when he contacted Javeed, he did not get an answer.
"Not answered" said Nida.
"Oh Allah" worried Aira.
Nida's mother also invited Aira to look for Via around their house. He also assures Aira that Via will be fine, there is no way he can be kidnapped let alone the area where they live is very safe.
And just as Aira was about to get out of the compound, Aira saw Javeed coming with Via in his carrier. On the one hand Aira was relieved because Via was with Javeed but on the other hand Aira was upset because Javeed brought Via without his permission.
"Ummi, where are you going?" Asked Via innocently, he did not even seem to see the anxiety Aira showed through his gaze.
"Via! Who let you out?" Aira asked, he immediately snatched Via from Javeed's sling, making Javeed a little confused, especially lately Aira pointed a cold attitude at him.
"Aira, don't get mad at Via. I took him with me" said Javeed.
"You too! You have no right to take Via that, without my permission. You know I'm freaking out, I'm worried!" sira exclaimed a little emotion that scared Via. While Javeed was astonished, despite all this time Aira was indifferent to him but only this time Aira seemed emotional.
"Okay, I'm sorry" Javeed said later, trying to understand Aira. A child who is suddenly not at home, of course, makes any mother anxious. "But jangab irahin Via, please. He was afraid of tuh," said Javeed, Aira immediately looked at Via who did display a look of fear.
"I'm sorry, Ummi.." said Via with quivering lips.
"Astagfirullah.." muttered Aira trying to calm her heart. "I was worried" said Aira.
"Other times permission first, Javeed. Moreover, Aira and Via are only two, they must be afraid actually," continued Nida's mother.
Javeed looked at Aira with a look of guilt. The reason Javeed didn't ask Aira for permission was because Javeed knew that Aira wouldn't allow Via to go alone with him.
All this time if Via left, then Aira left. But lately Aira is always at home and he seems to avoid Javeed.
"Actually you have a problem what the hell is it with me?" Javeed asked finally. "Lately you've been limiting my distance."
