It has long been felt that Guren did not invite Pasha to go to campus together. Today, Pasha was happy because Guren picked up and spoke as their previous relationship was doing well.
He wiped the wet eyelids. “You still care about me?” he said he could not hold back the crying.
Guren put his palm over Pasha's head. “I'm angry that you didn't visit and take care of me when I was sick, also—”
“Only that? Well, I'm sorry about that. But why are you defending Ran, I see you're also trying to erode the distance with Ran.” Pasha lowered her head, heartbroken at how attentive Guren was to Ran.
All he knew and saw, Guren who put his feelings on Ran who actually seemed Ran was not interested in Guren. He could clearly see that, after knowing Ran was married to Guren just based on Arif's threat for sure.
Unpleasant to see when Pasha cries in front of the house, Guren brings Pasha into the car to avoid the attention of others.
“Listen,” Guren said after entering and closing the car door. “My attention to Ran was only to trick grandfather. Do you know how tough the old man is? Listen and remember this, my concern for Ran is only because I'm afraid of grandfather.”
Once a jerk, hard to heal. Guren carried the booze using his grandfather's name. He did that because for now he still can't choose between Ran, or Pasha. His heart is still worried.
There was one that Guren might be able to do to make a choice, asking the two women about the reason they set themselves by Guren's side.
“My reason? Hm .. 'cause I love you, Guren. Want how many men I look at, still my heart for you,” Pasha replied with great confidence. “Indeed why are you asking that obvious reason?” Pasha looked up, wiping the remaining water on her cheeks, waiting for Guren's reply.
“No.” Guren finished the chat, he had already gotten an answer from Pasha. His goal was to pick up this woman as well for that reason, he wanted to ask.
Arriving at the campus, Pasha's eyes catch the figure of Ran walking with two friends who are always with him. Ran's appearance became a subject of inquiry for Pasha, the style was .. The beautiful clothes were also everything that was attached to Ran's body, Ran had never previously had such clothes.
Guren is aware of where Pasha's attention is going. He allowed Pasha to ask first.
“Appearance Ran?” point at Pasha, looking at Guren with a disappointed look. “You're the—”
“Grandpa presents Ran a myriad of clothes and jewelry,” replied Guren who again lied.
There was envy in Pasha's heart, when Guren and Pasha were about to get engaged, the old man showed his dislike for Pasha. Now, the old man, although not much of a talker, also had an expression, but was seen if he accepted Ran as part of their family.
“Ran was very lucky,” muttered Pasha slowly, not heard by Guren.

During the day, Guren followed Ran who was walking alone towards the ATK store which was on the first floor. The woman bought two maps for her errand needs. Finished that, Guren pulled Ran abruptly making the girl suffocate in shock.
“Sister Guren! I think the other senior brother.” Ran stroked his chest, calming his racing heart. It's nothing, Ran is quite pessimistic because he is often run over by senior brother in the same way.
“What's up?” continued Ran.
Guren was silent. His heart was racing, the same question Pasha wanted to ask Ran, why is it so hard to get out of his mouth. It was so easy to ask Pasha.
“A-I have other business, can be fast?” Guren stared at it like that, an inner pressure for Ran. He wanted to quickly escape.
“What's your reason for staying by my side, Ran? Tell me, whatever it is.”
For a moment of silence. Ran bit her lower lip to refrain from telling the truth. His head started to look down low, along with the hair that became a barrier curtain for Guren to see Ran's expression.
“I ... I hate Brother Pasha.” Ran looked up smiling, showing his neat row of teeth. “If I snatch you, Brother Guren, Brother Pasha will definitely hurt, right? All this time his request was always granted by papa-mama, I'm sick of it.” Ran's eyes were watery, but he kept staring at Guren, reassuring the man that he said there was something real.
“I ... child ignored by them. It could be that Sis Pasha is still jealous of me. Spreading rumors that are not-no, acting as if I was the one who bullied him. That's why I hate him ... Hows it? Is Brother Guren satisfied with my answer?”
This was an expression of Ran's heart, half a lie and half honesty. Of course Guren doesn't know that.
Ran who spoke in tears, convinced Guren if the woman was telling the truth. Like being stabbed by a dagger, Guren held his chest with a tight breath. So all this time he's been Ran's revenge device? That's what Guren thinks.
Until Ran leaves, Guren does not move from his place. Again her tears fell because of Ran, this was the second time the girl's name had shed its tears. First, when grandfather threatened to take care of the divorce. Second, when Ran gave a painful answer.
“I can't accept this. I'm not your toy, Ran. You can enter in my life, but do not expect to get out easily,” Guren said staring at Ran's back with sharp and red eyes.
Didn't he get the answers from the two women? He should have already made a choice as to which woman should occupy Guren's entire heart.
But ... Ran's reply seemed to lower Guren's self-esteem, he didn't accept that. Already in, don't expect to get out easily.
As for feelings, Guren will let it go. In the Guren extended family, they were forbidden to have two wives at once. If he can't marry Pasha, then it's okay to let the woman get close to another man. But he would not let go of a woman who took him for granted.

“Ran, you bought me a map too, right?” asked Risti with a clear face. He's on the moon, so he's lazy because of his sick stomach.
“Iya this take.” Ran handed over the map, then he sat down on the chair, turning his gaze towards the open window allowing the wind to enter.
“Hm? You want to daydream again, Ran?”
“....”
“Your eyes are puffy, you've been crying?”
“....”
“Huh~ I ignored again. But Ran ... You daydream like it's so pretty, I envy you.”
Ran did not hear Risti's words, his brain was busy with his own problems. About the conversation with Guren.
Seriate....
