Scelus
Chapter 24: Bab 23
"It's sad, when I could only touch you with prayer."

Actually SCELUS is really easy to guess, right?

ARJUNA stared at the white room around him silently. Her eyes fell on a woman standing beside a gurney, peeling an apple.
"Mama?" Arjuna softly quieted.
The woman was surprised, immediately turned her head towards the voice. Then found his son was awake.
"Juna already realized! Hurry up and call the doctor, Pah!" shouted Anerine-Ibu Arjuna.
The man who had been sitting casually reading a newspaper, now moved from his position to find a doctor. Meanwhile, the boy who just woke up from his long sleep, now stares in confusion.
"What hurts, son?" asked Anerine while gently stroking Arjuna's head.
Arjuna was silent, feeling his body. Almost all of them were sick. However, he felt the pain in his lower abdomen.
The boy remembered, it must be the stab mark that night. The night they helped Sheril. To save God, Arjuna sacrificed himself.

Almost the last bite of the meatball came to Starla's mouth when her cellphone rang. The girl stopped her activities, then grabbed a flat object that she kept in her uniform pocket.
"Hello?" Starla replied without glancing at who the caller was.
"Star. Arjuna is aware," said a girl on the other side. Starla was sure, it was the voice of Ajrina - Arjuna's sister.
"I'm going there now," said Starla, who then disconnected her call.
"Where are you going?" asked Dewa. The boy overheard Starla's leaving conversation, because the girl was right beside him.
"Juna already realized," Starla looked at Dewa, "send me to the hospital."
"Prince Arjuna has regained consciousness?" said Tama, the boy then pounded the canteen table. To the surprise of almost the entire population, "we are going to the hospital now!"
"How do you know if Arjuna is aware?" asked the god with one eyebrow raised.
"That's not important. The important thing is we go to the hospital, now. You don't want to wait for me? I can go alone," Starla said slightly raising her tone.
"Can you be patient, can you?" annoyed Dewa.
"So, hurry!"
Dewa then got up from his place, grabbed Starla's hand and took the girl to where her motorbike was parked. Meanwhile, Dewa and Starla's friends who saw this, were both silent until Tama's voice startled them.
