"Sir, are you okay?"
Arya was still fixated when Mr. Mu'in was caught up to come to paddle. His point of view was still on the girl.
"Did Mr Arya know him?" Mu'in asked again, but all he got was Aryan's head.
"Go back to the car" Arya said after a while she was silent.
"But you're soaking wet. We can find a change of clothes at the boutique around here. I'm afraid you're sick."
Arya just nodded faintly. He did not think much about his wet situation. Not even the cold felt. The focus was on the girl.
"Sir Mu'in, did you see that girl?" arya asked suddenly, which instantly made Mu'in frown.
"No. When I arrived he was gone."
"I think there's something strange about her," explained Arya without Mu'in asking. His face showed seriousness. "His face was badly damaged, but his skin was fine. I saw for myself the skin of his arm was white and smooth. What happened to his face?"
"Maybe the girl was just wrong to use facial skincare. Today there are many new brands of skincare abal-abal, sir. So no wonder. Not even beautiful, but instead make a face badly damaged," explained Mu'in while driving his master's car.

The girl paused for a moment in front of a two-story house. It was the house he had been in all this time. The old man's house is currently controlled by his stepmother.
Apparently, it had come this far he was dragging a step. The girl actually walked, and reached home by the time the sky had darkened.
The adult chest-high fence he opened without sound. Arriving at the doorway paused for a moment, listening with a strange expression the thunderous laughter of two different people. That's Kanaya and Mama's voice. Kanaya arrived first. Sure, lah. Galang drove Kanaya in his car.
I don't know what they're laughing at, but they seem to be happy. Girls don't want to bother about this. He just wanted to hurry in, clean himself up and roll under the blanket.
"You?" Sarah welcomes the arrival of the girl with the face of the ketus as usual. The laughter of the two was momentarily silent to find the presence of the Girl.
He got up from his seat, walked over to the girl, glaring in disbelief at the appearance of the stepson like this.
"No, Ma. Girl had a little accident ...."
"That's the reason!" sambar Sarah underestimated.
Unlike Sarah who does not care about the girl's feelings, Kanaya actually approached and looked anxious to hear her half-sister had an accident.
"You're out of whack, girl? You got hit by someone?" He asked curiously with a worried look.
"It was just a little accident, Naya. Just dirty clothes. The rest I'm not papa." Girl reassures.
"Gadis ..., you should have come home with me just as I was–"
"Go home?" Sarah immediately replied in a condescending tone. "Well, you're going to shit because there's him, Naya! Look at that face! That's damn carrier girl karma!"
"Mama stop!" Kanaya's shout interrupted Sarah's insults. "Stop ngatain Damn kid girl. I don't accept it, Ma. She's still my sister!"
"Naya don't snap at your mama like that." The girl that Kanaya defended, but the girl also did not accept. He admitted that it could not be as Sarah wanted, but do not let Kanaya's defense against him actually trigger a split between Kanaya and her mother.
"Wild, Girl. Let Mama know you're not that bad!"
Something with what girls are afraid of. Kanaya's defense of her turned out to further anger Sarah.
"Look at your behavior, girl!" Without warning Sarah pulls the girl's hair. "Because you're my son, I'm brave like this! Dissenters! Dare to old people! You have sinned so much that you have made him like this!"
"Geez, Ma. It hurts." The girl screeched as Sarah grabbed him mercilessly. Honey, the ringisnya ignored even though he had begged. Sarah actually strengthens the pull until it feels like the hair wants to be released from the scalp.
"Sick, you say? Which hurts more than your own child!"
"Mama already! Don't hurt a girl like this!" Kanaya who intends to mediate actually made a mistake by pulling Sarah's hand. As a result, the Girl is actually knocked down by a stronger pull, and here the pain of the Girl feels many times over.
Whether there is an element of intentionality or how, it is clear that this kind of event does not only happen once or twice. Without him knowing himself like he was beaten by two people. Girls are like being made moons. However, his innocent nature makes him not want to be bad because Kanaya only intends to help him.
