Under the rain that fluttered the bodies of the two of them, on the banks of the river, where it all began. After a long time the two girls met again.
"You're back? Did you come back to kill me? You want revenge on me? Let's just do it! Kill me!" shouting Arsa. His voice was almost drowned by the gurgling sound of rain falling into the river.
Arsa is getting tired. He realized that he had never gained the slightest composure since dropping his brother into the river. Despite getting everything she wanted, the affection of her parents, and everything her brother once had.
That happiness looked pseudo, like a painting that slowly faded away by water droplets.
"You think I don't know that you've been watching me all this time?!" yell Arsa again. Lightning split the darkness between them. However, Evania lowered her umbrella to cover part of her face. Arsa could not see the expression hidden behind the umbrella. And that makes him more angry.
"Revenge? You're right, if you want I can do it anytime. But for what? We don't need that. Revenge is only for those who live like you."
"Then, why did you come to see me?"
"To talk to you. I think that way I can understand your actions. It turns out it's more than just a word to make us understand each other."
Evania turned around to leave the place. Leaving her still silent sister.
"Dead you!" hearing that familiar cry made Evania turn around. Seeing his sister's face paled. An expression of shock and despair. Arsa did not expect that she would be stabbed in the back.
"Dead you! Die you!" the man exclaimed while stabbing Arsa's back many times. Without anyone stopping it.
Arsa's body was shaken to the side of the river. Before he fell, whether consciously or not he stretched his hand back towards his brother. Did she think that her brother would help her again like he used to?
However, Evania only fell silent to her sister's body splashed and washed away by the river.
A boy suddenly appeared beside her. He's the ghost of the boy who helped Melya at school that time.
"Why don't you help your sister? Haven't you been able to dump your feelings on your sister and that young man? You could've saved it" asked the boy's ghost.
"This is best for him. His life was never happy, even after I died he was still unhappy. So I hope he can find happiness after his death" he said, staring blankly at the stream that had washed away his sister's body.
"Ck ck! How ironic! She died the same way as her sister. He must really like you!" say the ghost again. Evania just kept quiet and didn't reply.
"Then, what about that guy?" the ghost asked, pointing towards the man who had stabbed Arsa.
"I killed him! I have your revenge, Evania!" the man shouted while laughing happily.
"Aakhhh! There's killers! Help me!" A woman who accidentally passed by saw him. He ran away in fear and called people.
It didn't take long for people to crowd. Police and ambulance arrived. Doctors arrested a man suspected to be a runaway mental hospital patient.
"I killed the killer, Evania! I killed him!" the man repeated his name. As she passed by Evania just like that, Evania realized that the man could not see her.
Evania's gaze followed the man who was led into an ambulance. The man who had once loved her fell into madness after her death.
"What will happen to him?" ask the ghost to Evania.
"It's clear he will be severely punished for the murder of several girls. Or, forever he will be locked up in that hospital without being able to get out again" replied Evania.
Miris, the two people she loved ended tragically before her eyes. He lowered his umbrella, covering part of his face. Tears slowly flowed down her cheeks.
But the wind flew the umbrella and showed the world its grieving face. The umbrella flew high into the sky swayed by the wind.
He remembered the first time he had gotten the umbrella. Birthday gift given by her sister.
"The pretty bird! This for me?" evania asked Arsa, who was only 7 years old.
"Thank you! I hope you're always happy!" he said while pulling his little sister's body into his arms.
"I would be happy if I could be as beautiful as my sister, have a good voice as my sister" she said. "Will I be as beautiful as you when I grow up?"
Back in the present, standing by the river that once drowned himself to death, and now washed his sister away somewhere.
"Goodbye, Arsa! Good luck! My prayers are always with you."
In a separate place, at the hospital Herlina doctor met Alden who was standing on the terrace of the hospital.
"Alden! Have you seen Evania?" tanyakanya.
"He went out to see his sister. And it hasn't come back until now" Alden replied.
"Meet her sister? What's for?"
"I don't know. He didn't say."
Herlina took a long breath. "I hope he doesn't cause any trouble."
"Just relax, sister Herlin! Evania is not a troublemaker girl. If he really wanted to hurt his sister he would have done it a long time ago. He didn't do it because he didn't want to."
"Yes. I know, Alden. Please tell her as soon as she returns doctor Aslam wants to see her!"
"Yes, I'll tell you" said Alden.
Suddenly the two of them heard a song that was so sad but also bitter. A voice more beautiful than the chirping of birds but the singing is able to slash the heart.
"Is this Evania?" herlina asked in amazement at the singing she heard.
"Yes, Brother Herlin. It's Evania's voice. He was crying" Alden replied. He could feel the sadness of his best friend at this moment.
"Rather than a cry, this is more like a prayer that accompanies a funeral" said Aslam, who had just arrived. Come join them.
"Cemetery song. But ready to die?" Everyone was silent at the question of Doctor Herlina. Not not knowing the answer but afraid to say it.
The sound of rain falling from the sky is like the music that accompanies the song. A song that touches the heart of every listener. The song also reached Melya's ears.
"The song was sadder than usual" said Melya, who heard the song from inside her room.
The rain stopped, Evania returned to the hospital. Alden greeted him up front.
"Welcome back! How's meeting?"
"Everything ends well."
"Did your feelings improve, too?"
"Well!" answer Evania briefly. "Oh yes, I met Aimon.
"Oh, that ghost from the old gym, right?"
"Yes, he said he sent you a gift. Did you take it?"
"Gift?" he was confused, then he laughed to realize what gift had been sent to him.
"Yes, I accept it. But I can't keep the prize."
"Why? You don't like the prize?"
"Not to like. The gift is not to be kept or to be owned."
"I don't get it. I think Aimon would be disappointed to hear this."
"He was disappointed all the time."
"Evanian! Alden's! Quick in!" call doctor Herlina.
"Good brother!"
The hospital was swallowed up by the fog.
The serial murder case ended with the capture of the perpetrator and the death of Arsa.
the city returned peacefully temporarily. The students were able to breathe a little after some time of fretfulness.
