Train helpless with the body drenched in blood. His strength as a tiger demon was not too great. That was because his hot blood had never been trained.
Bayu became very confused. If bringing Ratih to the beetle island can make him lose a lot of blood. Then, where will Bayu take Ratih who almost lost his life???
Finally Bayu decided to take Ratih to the boarding school where he lived. There is someone who can cure the heat. He is Kyai Maja, his own father.
The night is getting late. The pesantren have started to fall apart. An old man in a white robe and a turban covering his head was standing in front of a simple house.
The white-robed man was Kyai Maja, the father of Bayu. She was very worried because Bayu had not returned yet. Some people have been looking for it but have not met it either.
Kyai Maja felt something was wrong. The wood never disappears like that.
Suddenly, from behind the darkness appeared someone while carrying a girl. He is Bayu.
"Dad!"
"What's up, Bayu? Who's the girl you're bopong with?"
"It's Ratih, yeah. He's hurt bad!"
Bayu immediately entered the house. Kyai Maja followed him from behind.
"Please Train, Dad. There was a gang of criminals attacking us. Ratih was hit by a sabotage and injured!"
"Ratiha? Princess Jaka from the beetle island?"
Kyai Maja was very surprised.
"Yes, Dad. Please Train, Dad ...."
Bayu is very worried. Moreover, seeing Ratih's face getting pale.
Kyai Maja did not remain silent. With his skill he could treat the wounds on Ratih's body.
"You must contact Ratih's family, Bayu! They must be looking for him."
Bayu is a little confused. He just found out who Ratih really is. His family is also a tiger demon.
"Dad has known Uncle Jaka for a long time. Do you know who he really is?"
Kyai Maja looked at Bayu lekat.
"Say, Bayu. What really happened to Ratih?"
Bayu took a deep breath. He could not lie in front of his father.
"Ratih ..he is a tiger demon!"
Kyai Maja was not surprised. It seems like he knows who Ratih is and his family.
"Yes! Ratih and his family are tiger demons. They mingled with ordinary humans and deepened the science of religion!"
Now, it was Bay who was stunned. He had not expected that his father had been hiding a secret.

She felt that something bad happened to her daughter. Moreover, the day is already late at night and Ratih has not been seen as well.
"I feel like Ratih is going through a bad event! Please take it home," Puan told her husband.
Jaka nodded. He feels the same way.
"Yes! I feel it too. It was too late, it was difficult to cross because the waves were high. Tomorrow morning I'll look for him. After all, Ratih was near someone who could take good care of him!"
Mama's getting anxious.
Jaka just smiled. He knew Ratih was with Bayu. He also knew how they both felt. Ratih's wedding plan with his fellow tiger demon definitely left Ratih confused.

Ratih wakes up and finds Bayu still beside him. His memory returned a moment ago. When Bayu protects her with all his might from the bad guys.
Better to get rid of Bayu. The marriage is confirmed. He couldn't stay with her for longer because he expected more.
Trudgingly, Ratih came out from inside the room. Bayu fell asleep so soundly that he did not know that Ratih was going to leave.
"Stop, Train me!"
"Kyai's father?"
Ratih was very surprised when Bayu's father was already standing in front of him.
"Rest! Your wounds haven't healed properly."
"Thank you, Kyai's father. But I have to go home!"
The train began to tremble. His body is still very weak.
"I heard about your wedding plans. Are you ready?"
Without feeling, Ratih's eyes began to get wet. He who knows best his feelings for Bayu cannot be replaced.
"I love Sis Bayu, Father," said Ratih before his body returned to the dusk.
Quickly, Kyai Maja catches Ratih's unconscious body.
"Ratih Duk?!"
Bayu appeared while calling out the name of Ratih. He was very worried when he opened his eyes, Ratih was not on the bed.
"Dad? Why is the Ratih Deck outside?"
"Son Ratih wanted to go home but fainted because he was still weak. Bring it inside!"
Bayu immediately carried Ratih and brought him back into the house.
Kyai Maja was just stunned to see the two inseparable youngsters. He has to do something!
Early in the morning, Jaka immediately went to look for Ratih. Puan is also very anxious and wants to come along but Jaka forbids it. Jaka wants to make sure first the state of Ratih. Especially his heart and his feelings.
"Assalammualaikum, Kiyai!"
Jaka went straight to Kyai Maja's house. She could tell the whereabouts of her daughter even though it was very far away.
"Waalaikumssalam, how are you, Jaka? Your daughter's been here all night. He's hurt pretty bad!"
"Sorry troublesome, Kyai. I couldn't come here last night. Can I meet with Ratih, Kyai?"
"Of course you can. I want to see your own daughter. It's just, there's something I want to talk about. I hope that Nak Ratih and Bayu can be married off because they love each other!"
Jaka stunned. Married to an ordinary human? Mommy would not agree to it!
