HAPPY READING'S...

Tiara shut her mouth so in disbelief at what she had just heard from the mouth of a man standing in the doorway of the house.

Making his body suddenly feel light and staggered to the back of his shock.

"Tiara... Are you okay, son?" asked the middle-aged man who had come to tell Tiara.

Tiara's body slumped and fell to the floor. Her tears fell without warning. "Moe...". Only one word could describe his current feelings.

"Let's take uncle to the hospital," comforted the man sincerely.

With a broken heart, Tiara got up from her seat. Run to get a jacket and put it on in a hurry.

With her neighbor on the sidewalk, Tiara heads to the Hospital to see her mother's condition.

During the unrelenting journey Tiara offered prayers for the mother's safety.

Because only mother is Tiara's life.

Growing up with a single parent, Tiara grew very close to her mother. Tiara loved her mother so much that she did not care who her father was all along.

Arriving at the hospital, Tiara ran as hard as she could to the IGD which was in the front room of the building.

His steps suddenly came to a halt when he saw the 2 men waiting in front of the handling room. One of them Tiara was able to recognize him.

Tiara observed the man's clothes that were covered in bloodstains.

Obviously because the clothes the man was wearing were white.

"Where's Mom?" tiara asked with a raucous.

But what I asked was silence. Didn't have the strength to answer the question from the woman's daughter he helped earlier.

"Why are you quiet? where's Mum? where's Mum?" tiara shouted without caring about anyone.

Make Galih rise from his seat and stand face to face with Tiara directly.

"Where's Mom? I said Gal... Where is my mother?" even unknowingly Tiara hit Galih's chest repeatedly. To vent his fear and disappointment.

"Mom's okay, right? answer me Gal.. answer me...".

I don't know why Galih's chest is tight. His tongue was just too faint to tell him the truth about what happened to his mother Tiara.

So that what Galih did was just hug the body of the girl in front of him. Forgetting their sadness together.

"I'm sorry.." said Galih.

Tiara's shoulders look violently shaking signifying that the girl is completely lost.

***

The funeral was over a few hours ago. Akira returns home with Arjun after saying goodbye to Tiara at the funeral home.

"Hiks.." Akira's cries were still heard even as the car her husband was driving in had driven away from Tiara's house.

"Here you go, baby, don't be sad anymore" Pinta Arjun. Not because of what, Akira also has to take care of his health and also the baby in the womb.

If Akira is sad, the baby in the womb will also feel the same sadness.

"How can Tiara live from now on, all this time Tiara lives with her mother.Hiks, she will live alone now." said Akira.

"There is Bella who will accompany him. and also the Galih family." said Arjun.

Strangely enough why Arjun did not know that Tiara was so close to the Galih family.

Because what he knew, Galih never told him anything about it.

Yeah, it's funny. Galih was able to hide all of that very neatly.

"Don't be sad anymore." pinta Arjun to his wife.

Elsewhere, Tiara sat alone in her mother's room. Observing the remaining memories left behind from the figure of the angel who had been raising him.

Because only Mom's photo can be seen from this moment on.

The girl's eyes were already too swollen to show how sad she was.

Everyone will know that too.

While in the doorway, Galih is seen observing Tiara without bothering the girl in the least. Let Tiara mourn the death of her mother for a while.

"How's it?" tanya Galih's mother also watched Tiara.

The Galih family had come to mourn since morning. Bella did not leave Tiara for a second. Calms the Tiara from the grief of one's stay.

Father also mingled with the neighbors Tiara. Welcoming the mourners who came because Tiara had no other family than her mother.

"Mother will stay here with Tiara for a few days." Mom told Bella, Galih and Dad.

"Bella, go home with Dad." she added.

"But Bu-" protested Bella. Why would he have to go home with Dad if Tiara could come home with them? so thought Bella.

Because the Tiara would not be alone if it stayed with their families.

"Tiara will be sad later." replied Dad. At least let Tiara calm her heart first in her own home.

"It's okay aunt, Om... Tiara's just here," Tiara refused to suddenly leave the room to meet the Galih family.

"But Son.." protested Mother.

It is very dangerous if Tiara lives alone. Not for what, how about Tiara getting frustrated and doing things that endanger her. There is nothing more painful than losing someone we love.

"By promise you'll be fine" said the girl.

"Relatedly? I would like to accompany you." denied Bella. Because it's natural Bella is there for friends in need.

"No need to Bel," Tiara refused.

To make everyone speechless.

Although still in doubt, the Galih family actually went home. Leaving Tiara alone at home.

"Kabari Aunty if there's anything." said Galih's mother. Caress the head of the Tiara lovingly.

"Yes Aunty.sorry it's been a hassle" Tiara said in tears.

Because the Galih family had really helped him since morning.

And also Galih, since last night was in the Hospital taking care of Tiara's mother's body.

The man looked so tired with his slightly blackened eye bags from staying up late.

"We go home, Ra. take care of yourself" Bella hugged Tiara's body.

Making Tiara nod even though she was not sure that she would be fine alone without Mom by her side.

He got into the car followed by his family.

Although his car was still left with blood stains from his mother Tiara, did not make Galih hesitate to drive his parents home first and just washed the car after.

Tiara stared at the departure of the family. Leaving her home and herself.

***

At night when dinner time came, Galih suddenly thought about how Tiara was doing at this time.

Has the girl eaten? is he okay? that's what's bothering her mind.

He took his cell phone to contact the girl.

Tuutt's. tutt...

Went on but no answer at all.

Makes Galih more worried.

"Where the hell is he?" he muttered alone.

"Did he do stupid things?". Galih was surprised by his own thoughts. Without a second thought, Galih grabbed the car keys and immediately went to see the state of Tiara.

The sky of the Capital looked dark with flashes of lightning like cracking the sky. The wind blew hard enough to make the branches of trees fall littering the streets.

Alley got out of the car and immediately ran towards the house that looks dark because the headlights are not turned on.

"Near!" call him while banging on that door.

Look out of a window that is not covered by curtains.

"Near!" call Galih again but there is still no truth from inside there.

Galih ran towards the side of the house. Look at the open window.

"By!" call him.

I knew it was Tiara's room.

Until his eyes were rounded saw a pair of legs lying on the floor not moving.

"Near!" call Galih get worried.

And without a second thought, Galih opened the window wide to get inside.

From that window Galuh jumped in like a thief.

As expected, Tiara collapsed on the floor of her room.

"Fever.." he muttered softly as he felt Tiara's forehead using the back of his hand.

Without hesitation, Galih carried the girl. Passed through the front door and immediately took her into the car.

"Mother.." muttered Tiara while closing her eyes.

Know what Tiara is feeling right now. Losing someone really does make a person crumble.

Just like when Galih lost Alya, but the difference is that Tiara really lost a loved one for all eternity. And it feels so much more painful.

Night in addition to heavy rain, Galih brought Tiara home to his apartment in comparison to his parents' house.

Because Galih can take care of Tiara who only has a fever.
