1 GO BACK HOME

Nayla looked for the whereabouts of her friend who had promised to pick her up at the station.

Nearly fifteen minutes Nayla waited, but Zanna has not been seen.

"Naylaaaa!!" shouted Zanna from afar as she walked quickly to Nayla, who was still standing in the waiting area of ​​the station.

"Zanna!!! this is you? you look so beautiful." shrieked Nayla, staring at her best friend who had not seen each other for almost three years since she left her hometown.

"Not even Nayla, in fact you look even more beautiful, your skin is so white." said Zanna, stroking the skin of Nayla's arm.

"You are nonsense Zan, even you are prettier, your hair becomes shorter Zan? oh yes now where do you work?" asked Nayla, increasingly curious about Zanna.

"I'll tell you later, now come with me, let's find food first." said Zanna while hugging Nayla's shoulder.

The two of them hugged each other's shoulders, walked to the car park where Zanna's car was.

Zanna's car went on a road they had traveled on on a pedal bike.

"We eat at Bu Manaf's shop, Nay? now the tavern is getting bigger like a restaurant." Zanna explained enthusiastically.

"Changes very rapidly Zan, I did not think three years I left this village, when I returned everything had changed." said Nayla in awe.

"Yes Nay, the changes are very rapid thanks to our village head, Mr. Ardian, do you remember Mr. Ardian who was once a substitute teacher for Mr. Seno? don't remember you Nay?" Zanna asked, glancing at Nayla.

"I don't remember, I remember who was the most handsome in our class?" asked Nayla with a charming smile.

"KENZO !!!

they both said the name kenzo at the same time.

Nayla and Zanna both laughed loudly.

"You still remember it, Nay?" asked Zanna with a knowing smile.

"Of course, who can forget the face of the most handsome idol in our class, right?" asked Nayla back.

"Hm...but you forget the person who likes you from the first." muttered Zanna.

"Who is it? You know Zan, I even forgot all my exes." said Nayla, who had completely forgotten her exes.

"Yes how can you remember, if all of your exes are nothing you like except Kenzo, really not?" Zanna asked seriously.

"Yes, Zan, don't talk about Kenzo anymore ... that's in the past, Zan isn't we going to Mrs. Manaf's shop, why is it this way?" asked Nayla a little surprised.

"The road there is still being repaired, we can pass our village chief's house and it will be faster." said Zanna focusing on the road ahead.

"Ciiiiiiitttttt"

"Braaakkk"

Someone fell because he was hit by the end of the front car body.

"Zanna!!! who we hit!" shrieked Nayla in a panic.

"I don't know, let's see!" said Zanna as she got out of her car.

In a panic, Nayla got out of her car too.

"Oh, my God!! Mr. Ardian!!" shouted Zanna toward Ardian who was lying in the middle of the road.

"Who did we hit, Zan?" asked Nayla over to Zanna who was holding someone.

"Mr Ardian Nay, he fainted ... we had to bring him into his house." said Zanna, turning left to right for help.

"Mr. Ardian? " asked Nayla, who had forgotten her replacement teacher Ardian in third grade high school.

"Come on Nay, help me carry it, don't just daydream." said Zanna lifting Ardian's tall body.

With the help of several passing residents, Ardian's body was rushed into his house, which was in front of the crash scene.

Nayla was just stunned when she saw the people who brought Ardian's body into the very big house, and the biggest among the other houses.

With a very large yard, it makes people have to spend extra effort because they have to walk some distance to get to the house.

Arriving at the house, there was only one old woman who greeted him in front of the house.

"What's wrong with Mr. Ardian?" the old woman asked the people who helped lift Ardian.

"Mr. Ardian was hit by Miss Zanna's car, Aunt Umma." answered one of the people.

"Come on sir, take Mr Ardian to his room." said the woman who turned out to be named Umma.

Zanna and Nayla can only be silent and follow the people who brought Ardian into his room.

In the room Ardian lay down, there was a bloody wound still wet on Ardian's forehead.

"aunt umma, let's say goodbye We will call Doctor Sinta so that he can treat Pak Ardian." said one of the people as he left Ardian's room.

"Aunt Umma, let us take care of Mr. Ardian." said Zanna to Umma.

"Yes, Miss Zanna." said Umma.

"Oh yes, Auntie, can you help me get a basin of water and a small towel?" asked Zanna.

"All right Miss Zanna, I'll get it." said Umma as she left Ardian's room.

"Nayla, why are you still standing there, come on and help me quickly, you can take care of Mr. Ardian right?" asked Zanna pitifully.

"Why me? it wasn't you who said you wanted to take care of him, why now are you telling me?" asked Nayla, not understanding.

"Nay, you know that I'm afraid of blood, come on Nay ... help me, please!!." asked Zanna with a pitiful face.

"I can't do it, I'm a little uncomfortable touching people I don't know." said Nayla as she took her bag.

"I want to go, I must have been waiting for my mother." said Nayla.

"Nayla, wait !! Look at him Nay ... he's fainted, his forehead is bleeding, don't you feel sorry for him?" said Zanna holding Nayla's arm so she wanted to see Ardian's face which was starting to turn pale.

"Look at Nay, her face is getting pale .. do you have the heart?" asked Zanna with a face full of hope.

"Zanna, This has nothing to do with me, and it's not like you can care for it?" Nayla replied with an irritated heart.

"Nayla, please .. I beg you just this time to help me, I promise I will treat whatever you ask." said Zanna seducing Nayla.

Nayla took a deep breath.

Today is the day of her suffering.

"Well you win, where are the basins and towels?" asked Nayla with a heavy heart.

"I'll ask Aunt Umma, wait a minute." said Zanna as she went after Umma who had not returned.

Nayla looked around Ardian's room, the room was very large, with a combination of wall colors that could soothe the heart.

Nayla slowly approached Ardian who was lying on the bed.

She looked at Ardian's face, someone who was almost half a century old like the one Zanna said Ardian was around 40 years old, with thick curly hair and a face that was slightly wrinkled at the corners of his eyes. His skin is also not too white, more likely to olive yellow, his eyebrows are thick and elongated, with a very sharp nose, thin lips, slightly brownish, but in total Nayla can say that in his youth Ardian must have been a very handsome person.

"Nay, this is water and a towel." said Zanna, carrying a basin of water and a small towel in her hand.
