The door of the room opened, Altha came in carrying food for the newly awakened Aliya.
Al's smile was visible, he only had breakfast and drank water when he met Citra.
Altha helps Aliya to sit down, feeds her a meal because Al's body is still limp.
"I'm sorry Aliya didn't listen, I shouldn't have left." Al lowered his head.
"From the beginning I thought I wouldn't be heard, you're too used to yourself and do everything according to your calculations." Altha's smile was visible, flattering the stubborn Aliya.
Altha had expected that this would happen, so she could not calm down and immediately brought the team to check the location.
When he saw Aliya's car on the street where Altha's accident was getting more convinced, he quickly went to an empty house.
"Al, no matter how strong you are if you see your own family hurting and hurting us must be weakened. I hope you don't have a major trauma about this, we'll finish it to the end." Altha's hand clasped Aliya's fingers.
Aliya's head nodded, finished her meal and continued to stare at Altha's face which saw a wound on her cheek.
Al did not want to ask, he knew Al must have done everything possible to save himself so that he was injured.
The gazes of Altha and Aliya looked towards the door, Atika and Arjuna quarreled. Altha immediately opened the door seeing Tika who was crying carrying a bolster pillow, and her blanket.
"What's wrong? why fight?"
"When you want to sleep with Mami, but Juna's sister is angry." Tika's crying voice grew bigger.
"Come on Tika, sleep with Mami." Al screamed with a smile seeing his daughter crying hysterically.
Aliya immediately hugged him rubbing Tika's tears to stop crying, allowing herself to sleep with Al.
"When tonight take care of Mami." A sweet smile Atika looks.
Al also smiled, seeing Tika's smile made Aliya feel like a real mother. Even his heart changed its mind to settle for a long time maybe forever with the children.
All night Aliya could not sleep, every time she fell asleep the nightmare came back. Atika could feel Aliya's uneasiness.
Altha was not at home, still checking on the demolition of dozens of tombs.
Everything in the tomb corresponds to the list of people who died in the house due to the massacre.
Bones have been placed in crates for proper burial in public cemeteries.
Just one oddity, one eats none of his bones. Can't even be identified.
"Who's missing?" Altha looked at Dimas who was showing a report.
"The bones of his mother Al have been crushed and many separated. The team had trouble collecting it, while one ate it empty. He's Aliya's brother's grave, and it's likely that his bones have been removed or eaten by some crazy psychopath." Dimas breathed it many times.
"I'll tell Aliya, you take care of it until it's over and they're buried properly." Altha stepped away carrying the report letter she wanted to give to Al.
Arriving home at dawn, Altha saw Juna running to her room. Alt quickly entered, seeing Aliya feverish and delirious.
Tika scowls Al, Juna puts the cloth on his forehead hoping the heat will soon come down. Altha touched Aliya's body.
"When has Mami been like this?"
"About two hours ago Pi, Tika told Juna Mami to beat himself up, now Mami is sleeping and has a fever." Juna's face looked very worried.
Altha could see the anxiety on the face of the son and daughter seeing Aliya being sick, both of them losing smiles.
"Sickness, please. It hurts." Al rubbed his body.
"Aliya woke up, are you sick?" Alt rubbed Al's face.
Altha nodded her head, directly carrying Aliya to the hospital. Tika and Juna also ran straight into the car.
Juna held onto Aliya's head, rubbing her head. Juna's tears also fell. His heart ached at the state of his mother.
The woman who was present in her life with an arrogant and haughty look, became a young mother to them.
A few months Aliya was by their side, giving her the affection she didn't get from her biological mother, learning so much about life.
The figure of a very strong woman, behind her jokes and laughter was a great pain, but no one noticed it.
"Mommy, don't get sick. Who will comfort us when we are sad? who will make a scene from sunrise to sunset. Wake up Mi, is that sick that Mami's heart feels?" Juna muttered softly, looking at Aliya's pale face.
"Sister Juna don't cry, later Tika is also sad." Atika shed her tears seeing her brother wipe away the tears.
Altha had no words to comfort her children, she also felt the same worry and felt anxious seeing Aliya's state.
Arriving at the hospital, Altha and the children could only wait outside.
Alt's two hands embrace his two children, waiting for the doctor to check on Aliya.
The doctor came out and explained the condition of Aliya who only had a fever, the heat had also gone down and was still resting.
"Mommy's okay, Papi? Tika did not understand what the doctor said. He's circling around, making Tika's head dizzy." Tika opened the door, looking at her still sleeping mother.
"Juna Tika you guys sleep on the sofa, later if Mami wakes up Papi woke up." Alt smiled at the sight of her children.
Tika and Juna according to, they knew her Papi was tired and had a lot of thoughts. Not even a little rest.

Slowly Aliya's eyes opened, looking at the ceiling of the room that felt different. Al saw his hand being infused, and one of his hands was in Altha's grasp.
Al saw his two children sleeping on the sofa without blankets, Altha also slept while sitting down. Alt hasn't even changed her clothes yet.
"You must not have rested at all." Al rubbed the face of Altha who immediately woke up.
"Alhamdulillah you have awakened Al, I am very worried." Altha smiled seeing Aliya also smile.
"What are you doing Altha? your body can fall if you keep working hard like this. Don't be too tired, you have to live a long time." Al rubbed the handsome face of the man beside him.
Altha approached Aliya's face, kissing her forehead. Aliya stared intently, not understanding the different looking eyes of Altha.
"Why kiss Aliya?"
"Can't really?" Alt smilingly rubbed the head of Al whose heat had gone down.
Aliya turned her gaze away, having no answer from Altha's question. They both kissed without any reason to do so.
"Don't be like this anymore, I can't see it." Al rubbed Aliya's face which was still pale.
"Why? are you afraid of losing me?" Al looked into Altha's eyes which were also staring at him.
"I don't know Aliya, my heart is still too sore to reopen. Losing once has torn me apart, can I lose again? I'm not sure I can afford to lose." Alt closed his eyes.
"What do you want Altha?"
Chief Altha shook her head, she did not know what she wanted. Does he have the right to ask Aliya to stay by his side.
