SUPERBIA
Not Me

Nafla stared at the black watch that coiled in her hand. Now the watch screen is empty again without showing any numbers. In fact, the moment Nafla pulled the hook, the clock just slipped out of her hand.

After exhaling heavily, Nafla threw the object into a wooden box. Then, close it again and put it in the closet.

Today he and his grandmother will return to visit Bianca because tomorrow morning the girl plans to fly to Singapore. Only papa who came with him with a doctor and nurse who recommended to take also. Nafla is sure, the nurse must be Az.

As he was about to move, his phone rang and displayed Daniel's name there. The father of Jia was indeed two days not to see him as usual. Last time there was an incident of cold war with Az the other day.

"Hello?"

"Hello, Nafla. Sorry to interrupt."

"Yes." Yeah."

"Today Jia wants to see you. Isn't it disturbing?"

Nafla's forehead frowned. What did Az say until Danie had to ask permission like this?

"This time we're going to the hospital, ma'am."

"Who is sick? You?"

"Bianca, Mommy."

"Oh." Daniel was silent for a moment. "I've never been to Bianca. Can I come see him?"

Nafla seemed to think. Actually, Bianca's son is closer to Daniel and Jia. So, it would be best if they did visit Bianca.

"Can."

After permission was granted, Daniel who was in the shopping center parking directly drove his car to Nafla's house. Today he did not deliberately enter the office because Jia is on his birthday and intends to celebrate in the mall by buying toys. However, apparently the little girl actually whines to meet Nafla.

Moreover, for two days Daniel was absent to take Jia to the house of Nafla because of his work is quite solid. Daniel certainly does not handle all company affairs considering his position is quite high, so the time is more leisure. However, in certain moments his contribution is needed as well.

After purchasing the food as usual, Daniel and Jia continue on the journey. By the time they arrived, Nafla was already standing on the porch with a fluffy smile. Somehow when he saw Jia jump down and run to embrace Nafla, his heart felt warm.

So too when grandma comes out. Jia cheerfully ran into the old woman's arms. Here, the little girl felt a lot of affection.

"Let off now?" Daniel came over. Not to forget, he gave a parcel of food to Nafla, to make the girl laugh.

"Next time don't bring food, ma'am."

"It's okay. It's a habit." Daniel gave a smile, then approached Grandma and kissed the back of her hand.

"You guys go first. Let Grandma catch up later."

"Why, Grandma?"

"Kasian Jia if taken to the hospital," Grandma replied as she rubbed the top of Jia's head.

"We're leaving now?" daniel asked, with a nod of Nafla's head.

Both finally decided to leave first. Daniel politely opens the car door for Nafla, leaving the girl pensive for a moment. Not because of Daniel's concern, but because he remembered Az.

Phew!

While in the car there was not much chatter going on, leading Daniel to turn to Nafla who was sitting next to him.

"Tumben just shut up?"

Nafla turned and found Daniel staring at her. "Huh?"

"Usually love stories." Daniel smiled, then turned his attention again towards the road. "I love it every time I hear you tell a story."

"Not me!" tukas Nafla fast. However, he soon realized his stupidity and chose to silence his own mouth, to make Daniel laugh.

"If not who are you?" Daniel glanced at Nafla, then continued, "Close to you makes me and Jia laugh a lot. Thank you, Naf."

Holy hooch! It wasn't me, it was Bianca.

Bianca did the same. He also stared at the black clock that was coiled around his wrist. The difference is, he did not intend to open it because if he opened it, Az would ask.

His face looked so pale and tired because since morning, he had already done various kinds of examinations. Now he has to return for a blood transfusion. Things that make him almost sick.

While lying down, Bianca grabbed the phone she had stored in a small closet drawer, next to the bed. Actually, he was not allowed to use a cell phone, but Bianca was too stubborn and did it secretly.

His thin hands seemed to start moving slowly typing a few sentences.

Azariel Firdaus

Accompany me. I fear.

Without waiting for Az's reply, Bianca again saved her phone. The look on his face was in pain as a powerful pulse as if it was clutching his brain.

Bianca held her head, then groaned softly. His lips until pale withstanding the pain that he has recently routinely felt.
