Ariel was sitting on the sofa after an afternoon shower. He was in the apartment all day because there was no class that day. Ariel stared at her phone since morning, waiting for the Bravery who since yesterday had not contacted at all.
“Is he busy?” Ariel wondered in her heart. His lips pursed, staring at the phone that never heard the sound of notifications.
Ariel is eager to contact Gaga first, but she is afraid if it comes to Meta who answers. The girl finally chose to wait, until Roni suddenly contacted.
“Halo Om.” Ariel answered the call in haste.
“Where are you?” roni asked when he heard the nephew's voice.
“I spent the day in the apartment because there was no lecture,” Ariel replied in a lazy voice.
“Ohh .. I just want to deliver a message from Mr. Gagah, he can't go there because Azka is in the hospital. This morning he had to work and probably late afternoon also back to the hospital,” Roni said from across the phone.
“Sickness?” asked Ariel who was surprised. He then thought whether the Crow child was sick because he saw the quarrel of his parents, Ariel sure if Meta would invite Gaga to fight when the man returned home.
Ariel becomes guilty if it's true that the Crow child is sick because of the quarrel triggered by her, which is, he just can not bear if the child becomes a victim of lack of parental affection because the adults are only thinking about their own selfishness.
“What is the son of Mas Perky sick because of his parents' quarrel?” ask Ariel to find out to Roni.
“Seems not. The house maid said that Azka had actually been seen sick since a few days ago, until the morning her body was hot before finally having convulsions,” added Roni conveyed what was known.
Somehow Ariel breathed a sigh of relief because at least she was not the trigger of the pain of the Bravery child. However, Azka's condition now also reminded Ariel of Abil. Because Meta had made both parents die, now Abil also had to lack affection at a young age. It makes pity and sadness Ariel turned into hatred.
“Where is the son of the Dashing Mas treated?” ask Ariel later.
Sounded silent for a moment, before then Roni asked back, “What do you want?”
“Certainly upset Meta,” replied Ariel with a grin on the face.
“You have no intention of replying to Azka, ‘kan?” roni asked suspiciously.
Ariel laughed at Roni's question, before then answering, “Mana possible. Why would I take revenge on his son. I just want to visit, then make Meta rise in blood. That's it.”
Roni also believes in Ariel's words, after all he knows very well how Ariel. Roni finally told where the hospital where Azka was treated, along with her room number.
***
Ariel actually came to the hospital, she deliberately visited with the aim of upsetting Meta. As Ariel almost reached the room where Azka was being treated, she saw Meta coming out of the room with a cell phone stuck to her ear.
The woman seemed to be out of the room because she got a call, seen Meta closed the door and then walked in the opposite direction from Ariel coming, to not know if the affair of her husband was there. Of course this benefits Ariel, when Meta walks a little away from the door, Ariel immediately enters without the woman's knowledge.
Ariel goes into Azka's room, and sees the boy sitting with a book in hand.
Azka frowned seeing Ariel enter his room, looked at the girl who was very young, of course, Ariel's age was very far from the age of both parents.
Ariel smiled warmly, then walked closer to Azka's bed. He immediately sat on the chair beside the boy's bed without being invited. Azka was still staring, confused because she felt unfamiliar and had never seen Ariel before.
“Halo, I'm Ariel. I'm a friend of your Papa.” Ariel also introduces herself as a valiant friend.
Azka smiled at Ariel who looked so friendly and kind. Until he introduced himself.
“I Azka.” Azka seemed to like Ariel because the girl was looking at her softly and warmly.
“I'm okay ‘kan here? Actually I came because I heard you were sick,” Ariel said pretending to be awkward.
“It's okay. I'm glad I have a friend. Since I was bored because I only read books, Mama was busy calling since then without stopping,” reply Azka who suddenly felt moody.
Azka felt lonely since then, even though there was her mother there, but in fact Meta even continued to take care of other things than her, making Azka feel neglected.
Ariel gave a small grin, hearing the boy's complaint certainly brought an idea to her head. This is a good opportunity for him to take the heart of Azka, the boy lacks attention and affection, now Ariel is determined to provide for the shortcomings.
“Just relax, now ‘there is a Brother. Brother will be here with you, hearing all your stories as well. How?” asked Ariel started trying to take the heart of Gough and Meta's son.
Azka seemed happy to smile widely, she nodded quickly because she was happy that at the end of the day someone would listen and understand her.
Ariel also invited Azka to talk, from asking the daily life of the boy, to whatever Azka likes.The child looks very happy, cared for and cared for is his desire for a long time. Azka did not want to demand much from her parents, she just needed love, affection, and attention.
Meta has just finished with the call it received. He went back to Azka's room, and was shocked to see who was in her son's room.
Meta was so angry to see Ariel there, feeling that her husband's mistress was too brave to see her son. He then walked quickly towards Ariel who was joking with Azka, to pull Ariel's hand rough until the girl was surprised.
Ariel turned to Meta, looking at the woman who had a red face extinguished anger.
Azka was also surprised, she was confused why the mother was so rude to Ariel who she considered very kind and friendly.
“Ma ..” Azka wanted to say something, but stopped when she saw Meta who pulled Ariel to stand up.
Meta moves Ariel out of Azka's room, the woman is determined not to let her husband's mistress be close to her son.
“Basic women don't know themselves! What do you mean come to my son, huh?” Meta spoke in a snapping tone, his voice so loud that it echoed in the corridor.
“Nothing meant,” replied Ariel casually, one hand rubbing the other arm that feels hot because it is pulled Meta. “I heard Mas's son is Perky sick, so I'm here to visit.” Ariel still looks relaxed even though Meta has set up a body to fight with her.
Meta was so furious, his hands were ready to squeeze Ariel's mouth which for him was mocking. She was even more angry when she heard Ariel calling her husband's name ‘Mas’, making her not accept because Ariel called in a friendly tone.
Ariel noticed Meta's expression of anger, so confidently Ariel said, “Bun Mas Dashing I consider my son too, so be prepared to lose them, because I will snatch the Dashing Mas and Azka from you.”
