"Ran.. I don't want to be taken to the doctor's clinic, when I'm not much else, I have the desire Ran..."

"Dad what ya want... Rania will definitely give as much as possible well...". Rania is back.

"Dad wants to see dad's son get married."I want to see Rania get married, because Rania's sister is still at school in Pesantren. Rania is the only hope.
