Tiara finished with her nearly hour-long cry. He got up from the bed and remembered something, the dishes in the kitchen had not been finished he had cleaned earlier.
Tiara approached towards the mirror, looking at her puffy face. He went to the bathroom, washed his face. What if mom saw him in the kitchen with a face like that?
When she finished, Tiara went to the kitchen. He came closer to the sink, the dirty dishes were no longer there. Tiara simply fell silent, thinking about who had finished her work, whether mother or... It was impossible if it was her brother who finished it. Ah already... No more work, he better rest, anyway it's almost ten o'clock at night. After all, only dishes are rinsed.
Tiara stopped when she saw Ridwan pass her, she took out a glass and poured water from the dispenser.
"You really broke up with him?" Tiara who was about to step back fell silent. Ridwan kissed the water in his hand.
"Nothing to do with you!" tiara said with a kettle.
Ridwan chuckled, "Of course there is. If you get married, who will be your guardian? Who's gonna take you to the groom?" ask Ridwan. Tiara grieves with a slumber.
"I don't need a marriage guardian, and I don't need someone to take me to my future husband! Stop taking care of all my business, take care of your own." Tiara stepped her foot.
"Are you still in love with him?" ask Ridwan again. Tiara again restrained her footsteps.
"I said it's none of your business!" Tiara began to grow angry, years ago this brother dumped Tiara and mother, and now pretentious to ask and also care about him? Oh... Don't get me wrong, this guy just wants money, just need a rich sister-in-law to be able to live a good life without having to work hard!
"I was wrong to leave you, but I'm your brother anyway. Don't want his sister to get hurt for anything!" said Ridwan, he walked towards the sink and washed the used glass he was wearing.
"Don't want to get hurt for anything? In fact, it was you who infused the greatest and deepest wounds for us, for me and also for mother!" sarkas Tiara with great emphasis in each of his words.
"I'm sorry, Ara. I'm a fucking guy. I was blind from love, but I've changed. I'm...."
"Changed into what? So more of a jerk by asking other people for money with no shame? Turned into a man who does not care about his mother and sister? Don't know if after you're gone your mother and sister can survive? Sick or healthy mother? Eat or not? Where's your mind?"
"After father's departure, you disappeared leaving us many wounds. So many dependents that you leave to one's mother... What do you think about it? Don't you think where we're going to stay after some people come in here and hand over your junk mail?!" Tiara screamed in annoyance, lowering her hands that were now clenched on both sides of her body. Her chest was often tight whenever faced with this man.
Ridwan was only speechless to hear the abuse coming out of his sister's mouth. He deserved that snub. He is a jerk! He admitted it was because blind love made him ignore the responsibilities he should have.
"Mom may be easy to forgive you, but I don't expect you to be so easy to get my forgiveness!" Tiara turned around and then walked quickly towards her room.
Again and again, the tightness and also the emotions he had to endure. Didn't want her tears to be seen by the man and make her look weak in front of her brother.
Ridwan was speechless looking at Tiara's back which had now disappeared behind the door of his room.
"Can't you forgive me a little, Ra. I'm a jerk." said Ridwan. There was a sense of tightness that she felt in her heart when she saw her crybaby sister pretending to be strong and tough like this.
