"Good morning, Auntie. Amara is there ?" Gio asked Amara's mother who opened the door for him.
"Sorry, who are you ?"
"I'm Gio, Amara's friend,"
"Oh that last night Anterin Ara came home huh ? My husband told me. Do you plan to go with Ara ?"
"Mmm i-yeah," Gio answered wrongly.
"Then come in. Ara had not yet come out of her room" said the mother as she opened her door wide for Gio to enter.
"Thank you,"
"Let's sit down first. Want to have coffee or tea ?" Bargain the mother.
"White water only," replied Gio.
Meanwhile, Amara, who had not slept all night due to the burden of the mind, heard the person who was conversing downstairs. Understand that Amara's house is not as big as Gio's. He could hear the conversation and Amara knew that the guest was someone she hated.
Without a second thought Amara took something from her desk drawer. He touched the sharp object with tears. "Mafin Ara.," Lirihnya while imagining the faces of his parents and also Danis the fiancee. Amara felt she could no longer bear the burden of her life.
"Aaargggghhhh" said Amara. And fresh red water began to wet the bed.
*
"Usually Ara is not like this. He often gets up early to help his mother make breakfast. But lately his health is declining" explained the mother while putting a glass of water for Gio.
"Wait a minute, I'll call you," he said again as he went up the stairs that were not far from the sofa where Gio was sitting.
Gio followed Amara's mother's movements with his eyes. Even he also pounded anxiously when the knock of Amara's mother on the door of her daughter did not get a response.
Suddenly, Gio was terrified. He immediately stood up and followed Amara's mother to the 2nd floor.
"Ara ! Ara ! Are you okay ?" Asked the mother while moving Amara's doorknob repeatedly. But her daughter's bedroom door didn't open at all, because Amara locked it from the inside.
"Ara ? Don't make Mama afraid !" Say it again with a trembling voice.
Without a second thought, Gio immediately broke down the door of Amara's room with all his might using his shoulder. "Araaaa !!!!" The mother's long cry made Gio immediately barge in.
"Oh my God !!!" Panicked Gio patting Amara on the cheek and the girl reacted to the sign that her life was still there. Gio immediately carried the frail body of Amara who was covered in blood.
"What really happened ?" Amara's mother asked with tears. He followed in Gio's footsteps which was currently taking Amara out of the room.
Gio walks hurriedly to his car and is followed by Amara's mother behind him. As fast as lightning, Gio crashed his car into a clinic at a crossroads and located not far from Amara's house.

It was cold that Amara felt at this moment. His eyelids were so heavy that he found it very difficult to open them. The light of the white light dazzled his slightly opened eyes. Amara closed her eyes again.
"Have I been m*ti ?" Ask Amara in my heart. But then he felt warm in his hands.
"Fra... Hu.hu.hu,"
Amara's heart was very sore, it felt like a dagger sliced when she heard the cry of her mother. His limp body was hard to move. Amara is weak in the clinic bed.
Trouble Amara opened her eyes again and unconsciously Amara shed her tears when she saw the face of the mother. "Thank God you are safe, son," said Amara's mother as she gently rubbed the top of her daughter's head. He ceaselessly shed tears.
Amara stared blankly at the ceiling above her. It turns out that he is still in this world.
"We love you, son. You are not alone. There are Mama and Papa who will always love you unconditionally. Whatever happens to you, we love you anyway,"
Hearing that, Amara again shed her tears. "Sorry Ara, Ma" he said weakly.
"Nothing to forgive. You're innocent, son,"
"Mrs Amara still has to rest and should continue to be accompanied" said the doctor.
Amara closed her eyes again. He could hear the doctor talking to his mother and the others, but Amara did not know who.
What Amara felt at this moment was just limp and sleepy. He really couldn't just open his eyes anymore.
***
"The conditions are stable" said a man whom Amara did not recognize. I don't know how long Amara slept so fast that the girl was not aware that her body had moved.
Amara is currently in the VVIP room of a well-known hospital in Jakarta. And he's not alone. His father and mother were there. Also Gio and a middle-aged woman that Amara had met a few weeks ago.
"He was much thinner than the first time Mama saw him" Gio's mother whispered to her son.
She was very concerned for Amara, who was lying weakly on the hospital bed.
Her pale face with protruding cheekbones made Amara look pitiful. The guilt further engulfed Gio's heart.
"Ara, can you hear us ?" Ask Amara's mother while holding her child's hand tightly.
Slowly Amara opened her eyes and now she was fully aware that she and the baby were still alive in the world.
"Ara..," said the father, rubbing his daughter's cheek. And broke the cry of Amara for a moment.
"Sorry Ara... Hu. hu. hu..," Amara wanted to wipe her wet cheek and found it difficult to move her hand because of the bandage cloth that rolled her wrist.
"Sstt... Don't cry, dear." said the father.
"A-I am a failed child ! I have put you to shame" said Amara, blaming herself.
"We know everything and we're not mad at you, Ara. We still love you as much as we used to, nothing has changed. You are still our proud son" said the father again and sob Amara's tears became more and more.
For a long time Amara and her parents expressed emotions to each other. While in another corner of the room Gio kept quiet with his mother who had been trying to raise his son's heart.
"Mama knows it's tough but you've done the right thing Gio. Even though you are guilty, but you are proud of you for not running away from reality" said the mother while rubbing her child's back.
Yes Gio had already told both parents Amara when the girl was unconscious. Even Gio rested at the feet of Amara's parents, apologizing for what he had done.
Amara's father was so shocked that he couldn't help himself and hit Gio's face so hard. Wreaking his anger at Gio for the throat injuring his beloved daughter.
Gio did not fight back even though his face had to be bruised and the corner of his lips was broken because of the blow. Gio fell silent because he was guilty.
That was not how much, his own father did the same to him. Coupled with swear words that are not pleasant to hear. But again Gio was silent resigned because he felt he was guilty.
"Nobody in our family is a rapist*sa ! I never taught you to be a bad guy. However he is your son, Gio ! Take responsibility by taking care of it ! Our family has a good reputation. Don't let you destroy it !"
As Amara lay unconscious, the two families sat together and talked to each other to find a way out.
They seem to have the same perspective. That the child Amara conceived deserves to live and get affection. The seed is not made of love.
And in their religious teachings, contract marriage is forbidden. Therefore both families want Amara and Gio to legally marry both religion and state and there is no specific time limit in their marriage.
After Amara recovered, inevitably both had to marry even by force and forced.
