"Hi, Amanda. How are you?"
The smile of the man in front of Beby widened. His eyeballs looked at Beby's eyes with a million meanings.
"Lo-lo—"
Beby was eager to resist, throwing the man's body until his body fell to the ground. However, Beby's entire joint felt paralyzed. His tongue suddenly fell. His two eyes were only able to let out a twinkle of fear.
"Lo still remember me, huh?" asked the man while gently rubbing Beby's forehead which had been flooded with sweat. "Good, if so. I don't need to remember you anymore, how close we used to be."
"Go away" said Beby with trembling lips.
"Why, Manda? Are you afraid of me?" The man presumptuously rubbed the surface of Beby's cheek. The girl realized that tears had flooded her cheeks. "Sttts. Don't cry, dong. It'll be beautiful to lose."
"Lo who?"
Lola's voice was like rain water that flushed Beby's heart. It feels really relieving.
Lola observed Beby and the man in the black hat in turn. Without answering Lola's question, the man simply left the place.
"Who, the hell, is he, By?" lola asked as she sat before Beby. "Temen lo?"
"Now, milkshake taro extra ice cubes. As per lo's order." Kiran who had just arrived then positioned herself in the middle of Lola and Beby. The girl thrust out a glass of taro milkshake right in front of Beby.
A while later, Lola and Kiran looked at each other. Feeling astonished because Beby who kept his head down in silence, made them worried.
"Beby's? Is it okay?" asked Kiran while holding the back of Beby's hand.
In that touch, Kiran only realized that Beby's entire body was shaking violently.
"By? Lo why, anyway?" This time, the question came from Lola.
Slowly, Beby looked up. Both of his friends were surprised to see the surface of Beby's cheeks were wet.
"By? Why cry?" ask Kiran worried.
"Yes. Why cry? Because of that guy?" timpal Lola's.
"Turkey? Who?" Kiran looked curiously at Lola.
"Please take me home."
Don't ask anymore. The one who uttered the sentence just now was definitely Beby.

Time showed at 00:17 when hunger suddenly wrapped around Aldef's stomach. He had dinner with his mother earlier. Perhaps, because of the advice of Fitri who kept ringing in Aldef's head. Draining the energy a little more.
"As a man, what you do is right. If you like girls, say you like. Gotta gantle. But, according to Mama, you're in too much of a hurry. After all, you're the same he hasn't known for long. You should give room for you to know more deeply. At a minimum, tell each other about the family."
Then, when Fitri gave an opinion from a female point of view about the video Aldef and Beby viral on social media.
Fitri said, "As a woman, Mama must also be angry if there are men who do it without Mama's permission. Regardless of the reason you do it, self-esteem for women is everything. Moreover, your friend is a selebgram. Many people are highlighting their personal lives."
Aldef let out a heavy sigh. His head felt dizzy thinking about what had happened in his life lately. Beby's. The girl successfully disturbed the tranquility of Aldef's life.
Aldef came out of the guest room to the kitchen. The house itself consists of two floors. Two private rooms upstairs, and two guest rooms downstairs. Whether her mother's husband had gone home or not, which is clear Aldef did not hear the sound of a car engine or door that was opened from outside.
Arriving at the border between the living room and the kitchen, Aldef's steps suddenly came to a halt. The dim light of the lamp made him hesitate to step back. Aldef saw a white shadow near the stove.
Both of Aldef's eyes were squeaking, trying to observe something ahead of him as he crushed the negative thoughts that had sprung up.
As Aldef was busy watching closely, suddenly ....
"YES!!!"
"YES!!!"
The squeaky cry of a pinched rat makes Aldef reflexively yell.
'Click!'
The kitchen lights are bright. Now, Aldef could clearly capture the white shadow he had just observed.
"God! Rancid boy! I think there's a demon who swelled from the hospital," the nagging woman who turned out to be Aldef's half-sister.
"Bright. Lo who wears white-white. Why do I think I'm the devil?" aldef won't lose.
"Yes, continues? Is it wrong that the nurse's uniform should be white?"
Aldef spread his shoulders indifferently. His gaze turned to something lying on the dining table.
"What, anyway?" aldef asked as he pulled up the chair and positioned himself on the dining table. His hands were busy rummaging through the contents of a white crackle.
"Blak."
"Seriously?!"
The 25-year-old girl pulled a chair right in front of Aldef while looking in surprise at her half-sister who had just sounded so enthusiastic. "Yes. Why emang?"
Aldef showed a smile full of seduction at the girl in front of him who was pouring a serving of seblak into the bowl. Aldef's eyes seemed to be moving meaningfully. "Gue can ask ng—"
"Come on Kak Puput ... Lo, right, the best brother on earth. Yeah, right?" Aldef was unperturbed to exert all the ability to seduce that he could.
"No! Where there is the best brother. I have no."
"So big sister."
"My name is Princess!"
Aldef smiled smirkingly. "Brother Princess who is beautiful and kind to the universe of earth archipelago universe, may, yes, I ask? Please ...."
The princess who was chewing threw a serious look at Aldef. Meanwhile, the one stared back with a smile and a twinkle of eyes full of pleading.
The nurse-dressed girl sighed for a moment. "Yes already. Can, deh." Hearing that, the Princess then got a big smile from Aldef. "But not much!"
Still with a smile showing his line of graham teeth, Aldef nodded enthusiastically. The man quickly took out a bowl complete with a spoon. Then Aldef took over the bowl of the Princess. When it was over, Aldef was back on the spot.
The sound of bells and iron that sounded loud became the backsound of the midnight dinner of the bloodless brothers. They are equally immersed in seblak pleasure that indulges the sense of taste.
"By the way, the other one's viral is lo, right?" The Princess's question broke the silence that had originally been so dense.
"If I say no, do you believe me?" Aldef asked back.
Princesses shakes. "Obviously I saw your face in that video."
With an eye bead that did not switch from his bowl, Aldef raised both eyebrows. "Yes. That's me."
"How did Beby react to the video?"
Hearing the name Beby called, Aldef looked up and looked at the Princess. "Where do you know about Beby?"
The princess was silent for a moment. Giving his smart brain space to string the right words together. "Who, anyway, doesn't know Beby? He's, right, selebgram."
Aldef was still staring at the big brother. The princess's answer made sense. But for some reason, Aldef felt something was up.

Miko could finally breathe a sigh of relief. Since a few hours ago, Miko put all her energy into calming Beby. Because, Miko's dear sister came home in a state of chaos.
Miko was astonished. Didn't Beby leave this morning with Aldef? Then, why go back to the apartment instead with Kiran?
What makes Miko wonder, Beby continues to mingle with tears flowing. There were only two words coming out of Beby's mouth.
"No. Not likely. No way."
This incident ... is exactly like three years ago. The moments in which Beby experienced a very bad time in his life.
Miko had asked Kiran about what happened to Beby, but Miko did not get a definite answer.
And perhaps, Beby fell asleep from exhaustion from crying incessantly.
The phone lying on the nightstand right next to Beby's bed rang. That's Beby's cell phone. As Miko glanced at the source of the voice, the writing 'Mama' was clearly displayed on the screen.
"Hallo, Beby? Where are you going, anyway? Mama Teleponin from earlier was not lifted. Is that what really viral is? I'm worried about knowing, Beby."
The sentence barrage brutely stroked Miko's eardrum. "It's Miko, Ma."
"Miko?" A astonished tone sounded across there. "Kok, you lift? Where's beby?"
"Beby just slept, Ma. Poor him so tired. Later if Beby is fine, let him alone clear to Mama, huh?"
"But Beby's fine, isn't he?"
"Yes. Beby's safe with me here."
"Yes already. Take care of your sister."
"Surely, Ma."
"Okay. Take care, yes, Mik."
"Mama too."
Phone disconnected.
Miko sighed heavily after putting Beby's phone to its original place. His fingers rubbed the top of Beby's head with compassion sourced from the heart.
"Why can Beby go to the gini tiger?"
One more thing that was so stuck in Miko's mind: about Aldef and Beby's viral video on social media. It's not a possibility, there must be something going on behind the video. Because, Miko knows very well that Beby is not a careless girl. His sister could not have suddenly drowned in the pool.
