There once was a very ill boy named Halilintar

He was rushed to the hospital after he collapsed to the ground in his very own home

His parents cried for their sick child and Halilintar couldn't do anything about it.

His body was so weak. He could only move his arms weakly. It shows how badly the sickness was

After long discussions and waiting his Mother and Father talking to the doctor, they decided to monitor him in the facility until his recovery

Halilintar is assigned to a room with one bunkbed and an air conditioner about 21 degrees Celsius so the room wouldn't feel too hot or too cold

He sat on the bottom row which he lay there in excruciating pain.

Not because of his illness, but because how the room felt like a confinement with windows only available at the top row

At this point Halilintar felt this is far more worse of a punishment than his stupid illness

And to put more salt to the wound, his parents are very busy people. They barely visit him in the hospital but they still send small video messages every week

So this is his life now, huh?

He could only stare at the wooden plank above him with boredom about to kill him than his illness would even get to win

He wanted to just go home to pet his cat, or play with his friends.

If anything, he just prefer to die right now and then than to live in a jail confinement designed like a hospital room

When Halilintar thought this will be his new life, someone spoke from above

"Psst, hey! You're the new guy, right?"

Halilintar froze by the sudden voice

Ah right, he did saw a small figure when he was escorted here

The boy's voice sounded like a kid with his age

When Halilintar didn't speak, the boy cleared his throat and called a little more louder

"Hey, I know you're down there! I could hear you clear and loud!"

Halilintar slightly flinched

"Ah sorry."

He apologizes flatly. The boy chuckled

"Not much of a talker I see? My names Taufan! You can call me Ufan! What's yours?"

The boy named Taufan asked

Honestly it's weird this guy doesn't even show his face when talking. Maybe he has a similar illness like his?

"Halilintar"

Halilintar responded shortly yet again

"Ehhh your names too long! I'll call you Lili!"

Halilintar even though he couldn't see the boy's face, he glared at the plank above him

"No."

"Aw come on! I think it fits y-"

Taufan argued but was cut off immediately by Halilintar
