Don't Blame the Line of Destiny
02: Unique-Faced Man

Dinner is over, Hana has changed clothes. He is getting ready to learn. Before long Lily approached herself while carrying her camera. Hana, who has not started, chooses to answer the call from her sister.

“Kak?” call Lily.

“Iya, what's up?” the answer.

“There's something I want to say. But, brother don't get mad, huh?” said Lily.

“Iya, Lily. Just say,” he said while looking for a book that he will use later.

“Tadi Bu Tania came to ask for rent,” he said carefully.

Hearing that, Hana was not surprised. It was like a small wind that hit him. Breathing was clearly heard from his lips. He looked at the younger brother with a serious face, looking at the younger brother closely.

“What do you answer, Lily?” hana asked while putting on a serious face.

Instead of answering her question, Lily discussed things that should not be discussed anymore. That made my brother angry. However, Lily remained stubborn. He would not give up on his brother.

“What are you talking about? Already sister said, do not discuss this again,” said Hana while controlling her emotions.

“We haven't paid rent for 3 months. The owner of the house came and asked for the money, brother. We can't stay silent, sister,” Lily replied.

“Lily, listen brother. He promised to try hard to make money. So don't worry, huh?” hana tried to convince her sister.

“We sell this camera to pay the rent. The homeowner won't charge us like this anymore and the business is done, will he?” said Lily.

What Lily said was true. He had to sell the camera to immediately pay the rent that had been arrears. But he broke his intention. The camera was a gift from the mother, there was no way she could sell gifts from her mother.

“Only because of unpaid house rent, you do not want to sell your dreams. You have to achieve your dream, Lily,” Hana another reason.

“Lily does not matter if you have to bury your dreams even once. Lily just wants to help out. Forgive Lily, Sister, ” said Lily. Her tears accidentally fell and wet her cheeks.

Seeing the sister crying before her eyes, made this heart feel tight. He hugged his sister tightly. His heart was completely broken seeing the younger brother drop his tears due to a problem that should have been solved by an adult.

“Don't talk like that again, huh?  You're the one who made my brother strong. Thank you, Lily. Forgive brother too, huh?” hana said while holding tightness in her chest. He further tightened his embrace.

“I should be the one to thank you, Brother,” Lily replied. Now Hana releases her sister from her embrace.

“Ya. Then we'll both be. Let's be fair,” said Hana who made her sister laugh.

In the morning, the weather is not too cloudy but can be predicted if soon it will rain. Not having much time, Hana and her sister had to get ready immediately. Now they are in the living room while eating food, an event that they have never been through.

“You've done PR, ‘kan?” My brother started the conversation.

“Quiet, Brother. Your sister is smart, you know,” replied Lily who made Hana shake her head.

“You've done PR or not, Lily. Not you smart or not,” replied Hana.

“Lily has completed all the tasks that should be collected next week. Hehe,” replied Lily.

Hana smiled at her sister's behavior. He was afraid that he would lose the cheerful Lily and much of this behavior because of his present circumstances. Apparently not, Lily remained who she was. That slightly dispelled his worries.

“Alright then. Quickly spent your food, afraid of rain. It looks like it's going to be thick,” told Hana.

“Good, Boss!” lily replied with enthusiasm.

Lily was a child usually. He was very cheerful but it was just a mask, he kept something from his brother. Lily has a boy-like stature, her hair is short and her dress style is similar to that of a boy. Because of his uniqueness, he was shunned by his friends. That's secret.

“I leave first!”

In the classroom, the children are busy with their own business. Outside there is heavy rain that supports the class atmosphere. Hana just returned from the bathroom and rushed to sit in her place to continue her delayed activities. As his hand groped under the table in search of his book, a piece of money fell from under him.

He looked around him, whether anyone saw him. Fortunately no one saw the money fall off his desk. His eyes were round, his behavior strange. An idea came from his mind.

“Hana, this is your chance,” Inner Hana.

“Do not take, Hana. You know what's gonna happen, don't you?” On the other hand, Hana thought not to take the money.

Hana was still staring at the money. However, Zegran came on suddenly. Inevitably Hana had to take the money. He put the money in the pocket of his uniform and pretended not to know. He immediately continued his activities to cover up the previous events.

“You why?” Zegran came to his senses with Hana's panicked face.

Unfortunately, Gina appeared all of a sudden. Hana's face grew panicked when she found out who owned the money. The money belonged to Gina. Gina shows up to find where the money fell.

“Where is my money, huh?” said Gina.

“You lost money?” ask Fora curiously. Gina approached Zegan's desk and searched around there.

“You see my money isn't? I'm sure if my money falls here, deh,” asked Gina.

“No,” replied Zegran cold and fast. Hearing that answer, Gina immediately looked at Hana, of course Hana was getting panicked.

“This is the money?” inner Hana.

“Hana, tell him if you find this money is not stealing,” bantinnya.

Who knows, what happened back then was just a plan from Gina. He deliberately put the money on Hana's table. And now his bad plan is well executed.

“Truly disappeared, huh?” Gina pretended not to know.

“Not why. Let's just say you're doing good,” said Fora who worked on Hana.

Hana undoes her intention to return the money. For him, everything would be in vain and they would not believe him. Hana was really upset with him. He tried to stay calm and not be shaken because of the money.

“Hana, let's just say if this money is not dirty but you are the one who is dirty. That way, everything will be fine.”

.......

A year ago, his life was really upset. His father's company went bankrupt, his debts were wrapped up and now he is being chased by loan sharks.  While the mother left her and her sister for no apparent reason. Now he must fight alone to find money for himself and his sister.

Even though he looked fine, his life kept a lot of pressure on him. He was always looking for a suitable place to release all the pressure. However, most of the places he visited were not common. Now, he was on top of a building, standing on the roof of the building.

“Why did all this happen? I just want to live like everyone else. Of the many people in this world, why do I have to be me?”

Hana stood on the boulder. Closing his eyes while feeling the wind that hit him. However, his head thought of something wild. He thought what if he let his body fall and what would happen?

“Don't do that, Hana. You still have Lily,” he said that would resuscitate him.

“Do not make Yuzuru Lily.” He opened his eyes immediately.

He knew that ending his life was not the best way. He did not want if his sister would be tormented because of experiencing what he experienced. Maybe his sister's life will be much heavier than his. He can't leave Lily in this unfair world.

“A-hold. I have to go to work,” he said as he fixed his hair scattered due to the wind.

He looked at the watch in his hand, there was still time to enjoy this not-so-hard wind. He closed his eyes, hoping that all the weight on his shoulders would fly with the wind that hit him. Strangely, the wind was not so strong that it was able to make him fall, his body seemed to be pulled backwards.

Right, he had his body pulled backwards. The wind was not the suspect, a unique-faced man was the mastermind. His right hand was pulled, making his body fall over the body of the unique-faced man. At that moment, it felt as if time stopped moving. That's how he met the man who would change his destiny.
