"Ernest! Stop that!" yell at Zerin while pulling at Ernest's arm. He begged in tears.

Ernest did not hirau. He was like a demon possessed man.

"Ernest! You can make Zidan die!" Jaka who had been pushed back, approached Ernest again. He tried to warn the man not to become more so.

"Go you! I don't care if he dies or not!" hardik Ernest's. He again ignored Jaka's warning.

Zidan's nose is seen bleeding. So is his mouth. The bottom of the man's eyes also looked swollen and bluish.

Zerin certainly made more anxious. He was holding one of Ernest's hands this time.

"Nlt! Please stop! You're too much!" Zerin shouted very loudly. Ernest stopped beating Zidan.

"Their shame?! Me? You said I was too much?!" now Ernest's eyes glared towards Zerin. "You're the outrageous!" screech him while throwing Zerin's hand violently. Ernest immediately stood up and left Zidan.

That's when Zerin checked on Zidan. Hugged the man while making a cry. Zerin certainly did not forget to wipe the blood covered in Zidan's face.

"Zidan?... Can you hear me?" ask Zerin. He held the handsome face of Zidan who had been battered.

Ernest hasn't moved out of the toilet. He saw what Zerin did for Zidan. His heartache returned. Ernest not only felt betrayed by Zerin, but also his own friend.

"Oharghhhh!!!" Ernest went back into a rage. He kicked the trash. Until the rubbish that was there was scattered. Ernest came out and sat on the floor. He was crying sobbing.

Despite beating Zidan all out, Ernest still felt defeated. Especially when watching how Zerin worries about Zidan earlier. Ernest's heart was now torn apart with a knife repeatedly. Not bleeding, but it was heartbreaking.

Meanwhile, Jaka is still in the toilet. He helps Zerin to take Zidan to the hospital. Given the circumstances Zidan looks quite severe. The man even had trouble opening his eyes wide. The area around Zidan's eyes swells.

"Zidan!" call Zerin with a sob. He and Jaka carry Zidan. Then get out of the toilet. That's where they met Ernest. The man sat leaning back while drowning his face behind his folded knees. Ernest's whining voice could be heard clearly.

Zerin felt guilty. He wanted to talk to Ernest for a while and let Jaka take Zidan. But before Zerin approached Ernest, Zidan's hand swiftly stopped.

Although Zidan's condition is now severely injured, he is still fully conscious. Zidan didn't let Zerin talk to Ernest.

"But..."

"Zidan's right, Rin. Ernest's mood will get worse if you ask him to talk. Let me accompany him later. After I found you and Zidan a taxi to the hospital," Jaka said.

Zerin nodded. He, Jaka, and Zidan left Ernest alone. They believe the man needs time to be alone.

When he found the taxi, Zerin entered first. Then Jaka helped Zidan in.

"Zidan! I'm not helping you because I'm on your side. But because my dream is to become a doctor! I've always been determined to help anyone indiscriminately. Including now," said Jaka. Before closing the car door for Zidan.

Zidan's hand swiftly intercepted Jaka's departure. He put his mouth close to the man's ear. "But... You went to my family's university." he explained. Trying to endure the pain.

"Thank you.." said Zidan, releasing Jaka's hand. He and Zerin immediately went to the hospital.

Jaka looked to watch Zidan and Zerin leave. He must have thought about what Zidan said earlier. Despite that, Jaka immediately remembered Ernest. He rushed to meet his friend who was in a panic.

...***...

Zidan is now in the nearest hospital. He was on his back while staring at Zerin who was sitting dreamily beside him.

"You think of Ernest or your reputation?" asked Zidan in a loud voice. He had already received treatment, so his condition had improved somewhat.

"Everything" Zerin replied honestly. He clasped Zidan's fingers. "This time I don't care if I have to quit college. I'm..." Zerin could not continue his words because he could not help but cry. Because he believes that his reputation will not be saved again. Moreover, not only does Ernest know his relationship and Zidan, but also Jaka. Zerin had to be prepared that the facts about him would be spread to his three friends.

"I've hurt people too much... Hicks..." Zerin cried as he buried his face into Zidan's hands. He expressed all his unrest.

"Zerinu... No cry... I don't like to see you crybaby" Zidan said. "Trust me. I'll fix everything, '" he continued.

Zerin raised his head. He slowly stopped crying.

"Now, you better call my family. And tell me what happened to me. But don't mention the name of the man who beat me up. Understood?" Zidan always seems to have a way of covering up Zerin's guise. I don't know what he's planning this time.

"What do you want?" ask Zerin.

"Later I'll tell you. My current state, does not allow me to explain at length. I want to sleep and rest for a while" said Zidan.

Zerin nodded. He immediately contacted Arni and informed Zidan of the situation.

The news made Arni very worried. He and Wira hurriedly came to the hospital. When they arrived at the hospital, they confirmed Zidan's condition.

"Geez, Zidan... Who did this to you?" ask Arni worriedly. He touched the face of the son.

The hero stared at Zidan's nanar. As an old man, he was obviously also very worried. Moreover, the condition of Zidan's face is quite alarming. It may take about five more days to make Zidan fully recover.

"Zerin, what happened to Zidan?" The hero turned towards Zerin. The same thing was done by Arni who was also curious.

"I-i..." Zerin was confused as to what to answer. Because Zidan forbade him to mention Ernest. The problem that befell him now, made Zerin unable to find any reason. So all he did was look down and play his fingers.

The real Zidan has not slept, can hear everything. He slowly opened his eyes.

"There was someone who suddenly attacked me, Pah... I'm not fighting" explained Zidan.

"really?! Tell me his name. I'll sue him!" said the hero who immediately picked up anger. It was because he loved Zidan so much. More than anything.

Zerin gasp. Now he understands what Zidan's plan is. Zerin also realized that Zidan had made plans when he got a blow from Ernest.

Zerin concluded, perhaps that's why Zidan chose not to fight. The man is deliberately silent in order to have a strong alibi against Ernest. It seems that's how Zidan saved his reputation and Zerin's.

"Damn! Why am I in love with someone like him?" zerin complained while closing his eyes tightly. There is a feeling of relief as well as anxiety that haunts.
