JUST ONE MORE STEP

Septian rushed to find Nara. Where is that woman now? Nara leaves without a car because the key is carried Septian to the mosque.

Many times Septian tried to contact Nara, but was not accepted. He drives a car to Nara's house. Because of the possibility, the woman went home.

The cloud was getting darker, and the rain was beginning to fall. Septian was worried about Nara.

"Thank Ra, please..." Septian muttered as he continued to contact Nara.

His efforts were not in vain, after dozens of times, Nara finally picked up her phone.

"Lo where's Ra?" Septian asked in panic.

"Gue... " Nara looked around. Looking for a piece of writing he could use to tell Septian where he is now.

"Share loc."

Nara disconnects the phone and sends the location to Septian.

Before long, Septian arrived at the place according to the share loc. From a distance, he could see Nara taking shelter in front of a closed shop. The woman leaned her body on the rolling door while she lay face-to-face.

Septian pulled his car over and got out and ran towards Nara. His clothes were a little wet from breaking through the rain.

Septian looked at Nara. The woman's eyes were red. It must be because of crying, what else if not that.

"Sorry mom and Shaila yeah." Said Septian while standing next to Nara and leaning against the rolling door.

"They're not wrong, I'm wrong." Nara answered with a focused look ahead.

"Nothing's wrong. Just miscommunication. Sorry, because I wasn't there. Sorry for not being able to take care of you." Septian brightly stepped in front of Nara and held both of her shoulders.

"We'd better cancel our wedding plans." Nara said as she removed Septian's hand from her shoulder.

"Destrain away from that thought."

"Your family doesn't like me. Even your mother said she didn't want her son to be paired with wa__"

Septian put his index finger on Nara's lips. "Udah, don't talk about it anymore. Go home, I'll see you."

Nara smiled cynically. "For what? insulted again?"

Septian shook his head. "Same mother Shaila wants to apologize."

"Necessary. Where's my car keys." Nara raised her hand. "Gue wants to go home."

"My house was first. I'm anter home."

"Gue wants to go home."

"Ra, please come with me home. I'm worried about you."

"Gue doesn't want to be insulted anymore. I'm still hurt." Press Nara while holding her chest. Her tears that had receded were back again.

"Sorry Ra, sorry. It's both my fault. I should have explained everything to mom before I took you home." Septian wiped Nara's tears with both of her thumbs.

Nara just clucked at the Septian utterance.

"The cave won't let anyone insult you anymore, even if it's my own family." Septian tries to convince Nara. "Please go to my house first."

Septian looked very sincere with his plea. It made Nara unable to refuse. With weight, he finally nodded.

Arriving in front of the Septian house, Nara hesitated to go down. The shadow of the faces of Septian's mother and sister who insulted him still could not be lost from his memory.

"Down yuk." Septian held Nara's cold hand. He knew the woman was still doubtful.

"Your brother Nara has come." Shouted Sarah in the shop. Making a busy Pastri and Shaila in the kitchen come out soon.

Sarah ran towards the car and handed an umbrella to Septian who got out of the car first. Septian opens the car door for Nara. He grabbed Nara's hand and held her while wading into the house.

"Until wet gini, just take a shower so as not to hurt. I've boiled water for you to take a bath." Nara is surprised to see the change in attitude of Lastri and Shaila. Septian's sister even brought him a towel.

"Gue anter to the bathroom." Fresh Septian.

"Let Shaila aja anter bang. Come on brother." Shaila grabbed Nara's arm and held her.

"All your clothes are also Sha." Lastri.

After bathing, Nara invited Shaila to her room.

"I'm sorry, brother. My words earlier, must have been heartbroken." Said Shaila while holding both of Nara's hands. There was regret on the girl's face.

"I'm sorry, no." Nara replied with a smile and touched the tip of Shaila's hair.

"Thank you." Shaila hugged Nara.

"I'm not getting hugs anyway?" Sarah is sitting on the bed.

Nara widened her arm and welcomed Sarah into her arms. He who never had a sister, felt that way now.

Nara stood in front of the mirror at the door of the closet while combing her hair.

"Kak Nara is beautiful. His face was glowing. Must be expensive treatment huh?" Ask Sarah who really admired Nara since the beginning of the meeting.

"No, it's normal."

"Emang is basically beautiful Sar." Sahut Shaila's.

"Has right, you don't blink if you're looking at Nara."

Nara who was combing her hair instantly stopped. Septian didn't blink when he saw her? Is that true? Why didn't he notice.

"Sar, Sha's. " Seeptian voices were calling from behind the door. "Take her brother out, have dinner first."

"Yes, long life. Just showed up." Chirps Sarah.

Septian helps her mother prepare food as Nara and her sisters leave the room.

He looked at Nara cengo. All this time, I've never seen Nara wear a robe. Usually clothes are a little open. Especially at that time. Until Septian had difficulty breathing so sexy clothes worn by Nara.

"That's really what I said. Brother if you look at Nara's brother tuh until not blink."

Septian's face flushed in embarrassment. Didn't expect to get caught like this. As for Nara, she looked embarrassed. At first Nara was also less willing to wear a robe. Moreover, a little bit of extension because Shaila is taller than him.

"Come on Nara sit down. Don't worry, think of it as a syndicate's house." Lastri.

Shaila and Sarah took a seat next to her mother. While Nara she walked over to Septian who had already pulled a chair for her.

But because of the gamis he wears, he accidentally stepped on the end of the rear gamis. Which resulted in almost straying backward if only Septian did not immediately catch his waist and shoulders.

For a few seconds, they stared at each other. Nara's heart was pounding, as was Septian. They seem to be in their own world. Stare at each other until you forget about it.

"Hem Hes." Deheman Lastri made both of them wake up immediately. Septian and Nara, both faces felt hot from embarrassment. While Shaila and Sarah, both giggled to see Septian and Nara who arrived to salting.

"Eat a lot, if necessary."

Nara just nodded hearing Lastri's words.

"You want this?" Septian stamped a piece of fried chicken and thrust it in front of Nara.

"Can." Nara answered with a smile.

The dinner was full of warmth. Joking around, chatting and throwing smiles. Septian was happy to see Nara being able to blend in with her family. Though he thought, Nara will be difficult to unite because she is the son of a rich man. They're obviously different.

The conversation stopped as Nara's phone rang. His face pias momentarily when he saw the name of papa on the screen of his cellphone. He remembered his papa's message this morning. He was told to go home quickly because he wanted a guest. But he didn't come home until night.

"Who?" Septian asked who saw the mimic changes of Nara's face.

"Papa."

Nara moved from the dinner table to answer the phone from her father.

"Hallo Pah?"

"Where are you?"

"Di... "

"With that guy?" Cut papa.

"Send him to see papa right now."
