LIGHT IN YOUR EYES (Light In Your Eyes)
Hidden Wounds (Revisions)

A bright morning on Tuesday was filled with camera shots. Reporters crowded in front of the gates of the magnificent mansion of the 'Megardante' family'.

News of the romance scandal between Rian and Chelsea this morning has aired on almost every television station. Newspapers and magazines have also printed and published news of the scandal.

Not much different from the situation at the residence of the famous conglomerate, the 'Xilent' family'. Since news of the scandal became a Hot Issue this morning, Chelsea have been reluctant to get out of his room. Unlike Rian who had been dragged violently by the father from his room to the middle room.

Afterwards the slap and punch given by Rian's father received with silence. Every problem that hit him all this time made him forget how to defend himself.

The mama only turned her face away as Rian stared painfully. While Ran was staring at the doorway of his room. Again, Ran saw Rian's suffering.

Both of their parents ignore Ran's surprised reaction as each of her father's blows land on Rian's body. They do not think that at any time grudges can be embedded in the heart of the 9-year-old boy.

"Your satisfaction, Rian?! Keep embarrassing this family! Make Rian! Why didn't Vian survive?! Why aren't you the one who died?! Goddamnit! "

Rian's body was sculpted. The glimpses of the dark tragedies of the past kept swirling in his mind. After a long dark memory that Rian buried deep, now his own father who pulled the memory back. Rian's hand shook, his head began to throb pain. Rian's breathing was irregular and his ears were buzzing.

Rian tried hard to endure all the pain in his body and heart by clenching his hands tightly. Rian did not want to be seen as weak by his family.

But Rian's estimate was wrong. He thought his body would hold on as his heart quietly gave up on pretending to be strong. He fell on the floor with blood coming out of his ears.

Luckily, his father and mother had left the middle room. Only Ran remained who ran then hugged her tightly. Ran's body trembled from the restrained cry. Rian only chuckled with teary eyes. His heart and body were very sick.

"Lo very crybaby. " Ejek Rian on Ran who reluctantly took off his embrace.

Rian rubbed the tears flowing down his sister's cheeks while smiling. It was obvious that the pain was reflected in Rian's eyes. Ran could see it.

The eyes are losing their light more and more. Both of Rian's hands held onto Ran's shoulder which stood with a stuffing in front of him.

"Dengerin brother, Ran. Don't live like a brother! However, the pain cannot kill the heart. Ran knows right, dear brother very same Ran. " Say Rian with a dashed breath.

His heart rate started to irregular as it held his throbbing head. The buzz in his ears made Rian droop on the floor. Blood from his ears flowed to the floor. The headache made him helpless.

Slowly his eyes began to shut even though his smile had not faded. Ran's voice called out to him repeatedly. But Rian felt unable to just open his eyes. Rian was tired and wanted to take a break.

'Brother Vian, Rian kangen brother. Rian wants to see brother, please take Rian home to sister's house. '

Rian's ears paled and finally Rian completely lost his consciousness.

"Rian!! "

...***...

"Chelsea! Sweetheart! Exit dong. Please, if there's a problem with the story with Dad. Don't think gini! You haven't eaten from last night, come out dong baby! "

Time and time again Lord Xil knocked on the door of Chelsea's room which was still tightly locked. He constantly tried to persuade his daughter to come out of her room and the result was nil. There was not even a single answer from Chelsea.

"Dad! " Call someone who just came from downstairs.

Great Lord Xil turned to his son with a restless look.

"How is this, Rico? Chelsea haven't come out of his room yet, he hasn't eaten from last night. "

Rico approached his father who was standing at the door of Chelsea's room. The guards and servants stood behind Rico bowed.

"What's because of that cheap scandal? "

"This morning the news aired on almost every television station and filled the newspapers as well. But, Chelsea refused to leave the room last night, I don't understand, Rico. Dad's worried, Chelsea's never been like this. "

Rico stared intently at the two Chelsea bodyguards. Both seem to be scared.

"You want to get fired? What's the point of hiring you? Just wasting money. "

"It's Rico, better persuade your sister. " Say the father mediate.

"It won't work. Just calm down, let Rico break the door. "

The father responded with a nod then took a few steps back as Rico took a swing. And the door of Chelsea's room opened with 2 kicks. Rico and the father immediately entered the Chelsea room which looked neat like untouched last night.

At first Rico and the father panicked when they did not see Chelsea until the netra of the father caught a figure sitting hugging his knee in the corner of the room. Seemed a figure that turned out Chelsea was downcast hiding his face. Rico immediately ran to Chelsea when he realized the direction of the father's gaze.

"Chelsea, are you okay? "

Chelsea looked up, her face pale and messy.

"Sister, Chelsea is evil. " Chelsea's fight was soft on Rico who was immediately reciprocated by the brother's embrace.

"St! Chelsea is not bad. Chelsea is a good princess. "

"Rico, what's going on? Why is Chelsea talking like that? " Task the father suspiciously.

Not yet Rico had to give an excuse, Chelsea has been drooping unconscious. Rico started panicking and so did his father. Rico deftly carried Chelsea's weak body and took her to the hospital belonging to the Xil family. Rico's car sped through the crowd of reporters in front of the main gate of the Xil family's house.

Luckily the streets were not jammed, and Rico was able to get Chelsea to the hospital quickly. Behind him the bodyguards continued to follow to ensure the safety of his master. The nurses who saw the arrival of the actor with the missus of the Xil family in his carriage immediately moved quickly.

"Vvip Room! " Rico said to the nurses.

Chelsea were taken to the VVIP room quickly, while Rico followed while keeping his distance. It could be bad if someone makes a scandal about Chelsea again. Suddenly someone intercepted him while thrusting a black hat mask. Rico looked at the owner of the hand.

'Octa's? Why is he at Xil Group Hospital? Does Octa know my secret? '

"Sorry to see me here? Put it on, I'm clear but not here. "

After Rico wears a mask and hat, Octa pulls Rico's hand to follow him. Rico's forehead creased as Octa led him towards the patient's ward hallway. Seen from a distance Alex stared in wonder at himself and Octa.

Octa stopped right at Alex's seat in front of the ER room. The worried look was clearly visible on Alex's face. But, the look of wonder is even more visible when Octa comes with Rico.

"Lo tell him? " Taking Alex to Octa made Rico curious.

"What's wrong? How come you're going to Octa like I can't know? " Sahut Rico is confused.

Alex looked at Octa asking for an explanation and made Octa exhale violently.

"Rian drop, I directly came to her house when she saw the news. When I arrived, I heard Ran cry and Rian was unconscious. " Octa obviously made Rico flinch.

"Si Octa called me and told me about Rian's situation, I immediately came to know Rian was brought here. " Add Alex.

Rico's hands clenched then punched the wall firmly many times. Good thing Alex stopped him before Rico broke the bones of his own fingers. Rico felt very hurt hearing the situation of his best friend. They've been best friends since entering High School about 6 years ago, their friendship a year earlier than Alex and Octa.

Rico knew enough about Rian's suffering. As with Octa, Rico also learns the truth by accident when he intends to return Rian's book of assignments left in his class first. They had just entered their first year of High School at the time. Rico even had time to defend Rian when his best friend was in cacimaki and persecuted before his eyes. He even intends to make a report to the police station but Rian prevents him on the grounds that he does not want his family to be divided.

Since that time Rian has always told all his complaints to Rico. But, somehow since when Rian began to close himself back about his personal affairs from Rico. Because of his busyness Rico realized he ignored the change and he regretted it now when Rian really chose silence.

'Ian, you've never been this weak. I'm sorry. '

Suddenly the doctor came out of the ER room and made the three hurriedly ask Rian.

"Who is the patient's family among you? Please come with me to the room. " Say the doctor and walk to his room.

Before it could be prevented, Rico had already left to follow the doctor. Alex is about to intercept him but Octa holds back.

"We can't tell Rico how Rian is, Ta. We agreed on this. "

"It's time Rico found out. The longer we cover this, I can't imagine Rico's reaction later. This secret will hurt Rico too. "

After 10 minutes passed Rico just came out of the doctor's room with a gaze full of anger. Rico walked over to Alex and Octa with his hands clenched.

Bugh!

Bugh!

One punch on each cheek Octa and Alex get from Rico. Some people who passed by were shocked to see the incident. Rico's breath was hunting because of his anger. Eyes glazed.

But, before he could talk the sound of the ringing of the cellphone distracted Rico. He pulled out his phone from his pants pocket with his hands shaking and immediately looked at the caller. Rico clucking.

"Gue wait for your explanation. " Say, he went to answer the phone.

"Yes, why Dad? "

"... "

"Sorry Rico, Rico is unlikely to go there with Rico's current appearance. "

"... "

"Yes, Rico will go home to change clothes and keep coming back to see Chelsea. "

"... "

Rico closed the call and went straight back to where it was.

"Where is Rian? " Ask Alex when Rico is back.

Rico breathed a heavy sigh. His angry face was gone replaced by a look full of sadness. His tongue was twisted, it was heavy to reveal Rian's current state. Rico adjusted his breathing then looked at his two best friends in turn.

"Rian... Commas. "
