"Papa Radit went to the hospital because there was a sudden surgery schedule, Papa Arya and Devano went to the office, Darren and Rian are still looking for Aqila" explained Mama Intan
"Davin, call your cousin, say Aqila has met" Mama Rani told her firstborn
"We met Rian on the street" Regan said
"Can I ask Om Arya to come home aunty? Regan wanted to say something important" Regan took a deep breath, she had to tell him about Naufal
"What are you talking about?"
"Sir Egan" Aqila shook her head, she was not sure about all this, how could she get married so quickly? He also believed that Naufal could not really mean what he said
"He is truly Aqila, his good intentions must be conveyed"
"What the hell is this?" Kirana asked in astonishment at the reaction of the two people before her
"Wait for Om Arya to come home first, this is important in relation to Aqila"
"Aqila why? his head hurts again?" Davin's face could not hide his worries after learning of his cousin's illness
"What is Aqila sick of?" Regan asked because she had never heard anything
"Brain cancer"
"A Aqila you" Regan was unable to continue her words when Aqila just lowered her head
"Naufal know?" whispered and embraced Aqila
"What's this?" Om Arya came home after being told by his wife that Aqila was home and someone wanted to talk, panic was clearly printed on his face
And it turns out that not only Papa Arya, but Devano and Rian are also behind
"Regan wants to say something the same om" he said standing up and kissing Papa Arya's hand as a form of respect
"Regan? what do you want to talk about?" Papa Arya sharpened his gaze for a moment to hear Regan's name, making sure he was really the Regan he knew first
"About Aqila" he said
"Aqila why? Fainted again? Where's that sick?" Aqila bit her lips and shook her head, she tried to hold back the sound of her sobbing due to crying that she herself did not know tears were coming out because of what
"Someone will come tomorrow to worship Aqila"
"WHAT?!" Everyone there screams except for Rian, what is this? No wind no rain why all of a sudden like this?
"Who?" papa Arya's question represents everyone who sits there
"Naufal" replied Regan
"Nauphal? Rian didn't you say Naufal was a bad boy on campus?" asked Papa Arya and embraced Rian without saying anything more
"How could it be so sudden?" ask Devano
"It's her fault" Regan unhesitatingly pointed to Rian in front of all her family
"Rian's? How come?" Papa Arya demands an explanation
"Aqila went with him last night and we don't know what they did?"
PLACKS
One more slap received by Rian made everyone there surprised, not expecting Aqila to dare to do such a thing to her brother
"You..." Rian looked at his sister's reddened and watery eyes with hunting breath
"Low is Aqila in Brother Rian's eyes?" he asked in a disappointed voice mixed with anger
"Looly woman? The woman who was willing to sell her body and self-esteem was stepped on?"
"Aqila knows that Rian doesn't like Aqila, Reyna has always been in the hearts of all of you, never had the name Aqila?"
"Aqila is now sick, you are showing a sense of caring as a family, but for Aqila it is nothing more than compassion for your fellow human beings"
Aqila's voice trembled, her emotions peaked, she let out her pent-up heart, no matter whether they felt pain or how
"Aqila" Devano stood up about to touch his sister's arm, but was immediately brushed aside violently by Aqila
"Sir Devan was angry because Aqila forgot the company file, Aqila tau Aqila was wrong, Aqila forgot, Aqila also did not want that kayak"
"Forget about it" Devano said gently making Aqila shake her head and look into her elder sister's eyes
"Sir Devan was angry seeing Aqila like that and Aqila tau Papa must also be disappointed with Aqila"
"No Aqila..."
"Papa do not need to deny, Papa's eyes at that time said clearly Papa was disappointed" Aqila dared to cut off her Papa's words for the first time
"Aqila want to ask? Why is only Aqila different?"
"Son Devan was about to bankrupt a branch company and what did you say? 'It's okay to teach a lesson'"
"Sir Darren medical school to take specialist majors abroad, of course the cost is not cheap"
"Sister Rian with Reyna, what he asked Papa with Mama to follow, never see the price, no matter Papa tired just coming home from work, as long as they see Papa's smile happy"
"Where's Aqila?" Aqila patted her chest withstanding the tightness and tears that began to shed
"Do you remember Aqila's birthday? Did Papa ever break Papa's promises from childhood? Did Kak Devan, Kak Darren and Kak Rian ever make a promise to Aqila?"
"You must have thought Aqila was now thinking childishly" Aqila shook her head
"Aqila's just tired, Aqila's tired of caving on, Aqila's tired of being forgetful, Aqila's jealous of Reyna, all your attention to her, Aqila wants to be like other children whose parents say "You're great, we're proud to have a kid like you" have you ever said that when Aqila won the general championship? When is Aqila's highest grade in the class? When Aqila won the race? When Aqila made it to university on a scholarship? Never, right?"
Everyone there was silent, no one was talking, they knew that the illness was affecting Aqila's emotions, but hearing Aqila's words right now they knew that they were words that were buried long in his heart
The words he never wanted to say before them, a heart-pounding expression that struck them deep, an expression that said they were too cruel
They were too blinded by the affection for the youngest Reyna who was exposed to a dangerous disease at that time, to just focus on her and forget Aqila who needed their affection and care
"Son, Papa's sorry" Papa Arya clasped her daughter's arm
"Papa don't need to apologize to Aqila, you guys are never wrong, just Aqila's mindset is wrong, Aqila just lacks gratitude, Aqila is just envious of seeing that" aqila's answer only made the guilt in their hearts accumulate
"Can Aqila ask you for something? Think of this as Aqila's last request"
"Don't tell me that, son, Aqila, what's the same papa? A birthday present?" Aqila chuckled in horror at Papa's words
"Aqila's birthday has passed by Pa, Aqila has blown a candle in her own room" Mama Intan who heard her daughter's sobbing, really she failed to become a mother, she said, to be a wingless angel who shaded his children
Papa Arya's face can't lie if he's okay, as the head of the family, a hero to his children and first love for his daughter, now he feels like a failure
He is good at leading his company and feels successful as the head of the family, but in fact one of his daughters lied by hiding a heart wound behind laughter
"Aqila asked what?" His voice was shaking violently
"Please accept Naufal's sermon for Aqila, perhaps God's destiny has already determined him as a reinforcement and someone who makes Aqila truly feel loved"

Sorry long up...🙏🙏😭
