Kinzi. "I see, Zahra, even that hurts a lot. But-"

"But what is Brother? Did you say something like this to get Zahra to forgive her and to accept her again?" zahra said he saw Kenzo standing outside the car.

Kinzi shook his head to answer Zahra's question. "Never has Kenzo asked for my help to get you back, Zahra. It's purely my wish, because indirectly, all this happened because I'm Zahra. If I realized sooner than a coma, maybe it wasn't like this" Kinzi replied.

"But Zahra is grateful, Brother. Because all of this makes Zahra more mature. Zahra's experience with Kenzo was the most influential lesson in Zahra's life" Zahra said sincerely.

"Zahra," said Kinzi gently grasping Zahra's hand.

"Don't give too much karma to Kenzo, Zahra. I witnessed how hard life he lived while you were gone" Kinzi said seriously.

"Then what about Zahra's wounds, brother? Is everything Ken did to Zahra not cruel? What is Ken doing to Zahra that is still human? What does Ken Kak do to Zahra that's worthy of a human being, brother?" zahra asked in a row with teary eyes looking at Kinzi.

"At least allow Kenzo to have time with his son, Zahra," pinta Kinzi pleaded.

"If Zahra forbids Ken to meet Sela, maybe every morning Ken won't come to pick up Sela Kak" Zahra replied.

"May I give you one hope, Zahra?" tanya Kinzi stared fixedly at Zahra.

"We can be selfish, Zahra. But not for the happiness of a child" said Kinzi.

Zahra smiled wryly. Selfish? Everyone says he's selfish.

"Everyone says I'm selfish. All judged Zahra as selfish and thought nothing of Sela at all. But have they ever thought about how Zahra felt, brother? Have they ever thought about how hard Zahra is to withstand all the trauma in Zahra? Have they ever thought about how Zahra received all the treatment Kak Ken used to do, Brother? Everyone thought about Zahra. Not really! They only think about the moment without looking back," Zahra said at length with a cry she could not bear.

"Mouth Zahra may say sorry, brother. But not with Zahra's heart. It's still very messy, glass scattered everywhere, brother. Zahra's heart is not fine, Brother," Zahra continued with trembling hands.

"I'm sorry Zahra, sister," Zahra said and got out of the car.

Kenzo who saw Zahra get out of his car immediately ran after Zahra. "Zahra wait," said Kenzo holding Zahra's wrist.

"I have to go home" Zahra said briefly.

"I delivered, yes," said Kenzo.

Zahra turned around and looked at Kenzo. He shook his head while trying to smile at Kenzo. "I can go home by myself, don't worry. It's better to do your job as a father to pick up Sela at school" Zahra said, holding all the tightness in her chest.

"Honey," said Kenzo.

"Again, let me go" Zahra pleaded with Kenzo.

Kenzo nodded. "For this time I allow it, but not for the next time" replied Kenzo letting go of Zahra's hand.

Kenzo looked at Zahra who was running away from her yard. Kenzo again walked towards the car and approached Kinzi who was already standing next to the car.

"Why can Zahra be like that, Kinzi?" asked Kenzo staring at Kinzi sharply.

"I just asked Kinzi to forgive you, Kenzo," said Kinzi looking down in fear.

Kenzo rubbed his face rough. "How many times have I said. I let you talk to Zahra just to apologize, not to ask for help" Kenzo said in frustration.

"Sorry Kenzo. I just want you and Zahra back together" Kinzi said sincerely.

"Huff, you made it all back hard, Kinzi," Kenzo said and passed into the car. He runs his car back to Sela's school.

.....

"Hiks, Zahra is not selfish" Zahra said, burying her head between the folds of her knees.

Zahra hugged her own body on the floor next to her bed. The selfish words that he had heard all this time really made his heart again hurt, the invisible blood again filled his heart.

"Zahra is unlikely to hurt Sela. Zahra could not have hurt Sela's own son. Zahra is not selfish" said Zahra squeezed her chest tightly which felt very tight.

"Excuse Mother Sela, not the intention of Mother selfish, son. It's just that Mother's heart still remembers how the wound hurt, forgive Mother, hiks," said Zahra crying bitterly considering the tears of her son who had come out because of his relationship with Kenzo is not good.

"Zahra,"a soft voice made Zahra turn towards the door of her room.

"Umi," said Zahra Pilu with tears still coming out of his mouth.

Just before Kenzo went to Sela's school, he called Dee first to meet Zahra immediately. Kenzo believes the woman is not doing well. And Kenzo believes that Dee is the one who can give Zahra peace.

Dee, who saw Zahra, ran down to hug Zahra's body, which shook with tears. "Why, Son?" ask Dee.

"Zahra's chest is tight, Umi, hiks," said Zahra banging her chest.

Dee nodded looking at Zahra. He tried to stop Zahra's hand hitting his own chest. "Already, Son. Later his chest hurts," said Dee.

"Hiks, everyone says Zahra is selfish, Umi" Zahra told Dee.

"Son."

"Zahra was just thinking about Zahra's heart, Umi. Zahra was just trying to fix Zahra's heart. Zahra knew there was already Sela that Zahra had to think about, but Zahra could not yet, Umi. The time is still not enough to fix everything" Zahra said as she felt.

Dee let go of his embrace and cupped both of Zahra's cheeks. "Look at Umi, son," said Dee.

Zahra ventured to look at Dee with her swollen eyes. Dee could see, there was a lot of pain in Zahra's gaze. Really, Dee never imagined that Zahra would experience something even more painful than her.

"Zahra just needs to be at peace with Zahra's self and heart, son. Peace with everything. Umi knows everything is difficult, but Zahra certainly can" Dee assured Zahra.

"It's difficult for Umi" said Zahra with a trembling tone.

"But nothing is impossible, son," Dee assured Zahra.

"Don't be angry with Zahra too, Umi" said Zahra looking at Dee. He was afraid, Dee would also be angry at him for not being able to forget everything.

Dee shook her head. "Umi is not angry, just never let the past rule Zahra's life, yes. Don't let the past destroy happiness in the future, son," Dee said.

Without them noticing, there was a tiny figure who heard everything. She doesn't understand everything Dee and Zahra have to say, but she's definitely not okay.
