It was a pretty crowded night, though,


 


 


Raihan is driving his bike at medium speed. When the man looked in the rearview mirror, he saw a car following him in the back.


 


 


Raihan slowed down the speed of his motorbike hoping that the car drove past him, but no.


 


 


The car was intentionally following him. The man tightened the helmet he was wearing.


 


 


The streets are too crowded. The person behind me will not dare to do anything, Raihan said.


 


 


When passing through the quiet streets, Raihan accelerate the speed of his motorbike.


 


 


Only 40 meters away, I arrived at a more crowded place, Raihan said in his heart.


 


 


However, the speed of the car was superior and deliberately hit the back of the Raihan motor.


 


 


Raihan lost his balance, he fell rolling onto the asphalt of the road. His eyes widened when the tires of the car would hit his head. Immediately, Raihan moved away so that the car passed over him and Raihan was fine when he was under the car.


 


 


Raihan's hand moved to touch his thundering chest as he was still shocked by what almost happened to him.


 


 


One centimeter alone Raihan did not move immediately from his original position, he would definitely die with his head crushed.


 


 


Get two people out of the car. Raihan had not had time to return his thoughts, the two people instantly beat him mercilessly.


 


 


Raihan could not fight with his weak state of body due to falling thrown from the motor.


 


 


However, hearing the sound of an approaching motorbike, the two unidentified people immediately entered his car and gasped.


 


 


The motors stopped and helped Raihan.


 


 


"Damn the people of the Regar gang," said one of them while carrying Raihan's body.


 


 


On the same night, Regar and Rama return home. They did not see Shica anywhere, including in her room.


 


 


"Where is the boy?" Ask Regar to start panicking. Rama also searched every room.


 


 


When entering the dining room, Rama was surprised while smiling with a smile to see his sister was asleep with the position of the head asleep on both hands folded on the dining table.


 


 


Rama approached his brother. There was plenty of food at the table, but everything was still intact.


 


 


Shica waits for her brothers to return for dinner together and the girl falls asleep.


 


 


Rama rubbed Shica's hair. The girl moved with her eyes still closed.


 


 


Rugged into the dining room, he heaved a sigh of relief seeing Shica there.


 


 


"Ah, this kid just makes me feel like I'm going to die." Regularly lifting up Shica's body with bridal style headed to the girl's room.


 


 


Rama opened the door. Lain Shica to the bed by Regar. Rama.


 


 


"Son't you feel sorry for Shica?" Ask Rama.


 


 


"Why indeed?" Regards asked.


 


 


"Sister forces her not to be close to the man she likes, while she doesn't ban sister Bella, but Shica doesn't like Bella."


 


 


Regar scolded, "The thing is that she likes Raihan, aren't you worried about your sister's safety if she's close to Raihan?"


 


 


Rama remained silent.


 


 


Reggar said again, "Shica is just in love with monkeys, later she is also bored with Raihan and will like other men."


 


 


Rama had no intention of refuting his brother.


 


 


"Don't overdramatize the situation. It'll make you weak and slow, Lightning."


 


 


After saying that, Regar passed. However, his steps stopped hearing the notification sound from Shica's phone stored on the table.


 


 


Regular took it, apparently from Meishy.


 


 


Shica, I got word from Rangga...


Raihan accident!


 


 


Shica where are you?


 


 


Regularly knit her brows, "Rama, didn't I tell you to keep this girl away from Shica?"


 


 


Rama wave, "That's it...."


 


 


"I can't believe you if you're like this, Rama. You should understand, this is to protect Shica," said Regar while removing the conversation balloon from Meishy.


 


 


Regularly looking for Shica's conversation with Raihan. When he found it, Regar read all of those conversations.


 


 


"Follow me, Rama." Regularly put Shica's phone back on the table.


 


 


Rama nodded.


 


 


-


 


 


The next day, Shica goes down the stairs to go to school as usual, but Rama calls her.


 


 


"The three of us will go to school together, wait for Regar's brother for a moment" Rama said.


 


 


Shica nodded.


 


 


Reverse down the stairs with a voice, "Today with me on the bike, go home too."


 


 


Shica seemed to think.


 


 


The three of them came out. Shica was surprised to see a red sports car that looks still newly parked in the courtyard of her house.


 


 


"Big brother bought a new motor? Papa knows?" Shica asked Rear.


 


 


"Givar gave it to me, because today is my birthday. It seems like only he remembers," replied Regar.


 


 


Shica was surprised, how could I forget?! It's my Regar's birthday! Oh my God, he could be mad at me.


 


 


Ride the bike and wear a helmet. He looked at Shica who had not boarded.


 


 


"Why?" Ask Regar.


 


 


Shica tapped on the ground with the tip of her foot, "I'm having trouble climbing."


 


 


Regar looked down at the short skirt worn by Shica.


 


 


"Just throw away that fucking skirt, next time I'll buy you one that's worth a look" Regar said.


 


 


Rama laughs.


 


 


Regularly take off the jacket, "You want to wear my jacket too, right?"


 


 


The Regular Question made Shica frown.


 


 


"You'll never wear Raihan's jacket" said Regar who understood Shica's confusion.


 


 


The girl lowered her head as she took the Regar jacket and attached it to her waist. He got on the bike while putting on a helmet.


 


 


Rama took the bike first. Reggar follows behind.


 


 


Along the way, Shica did not dare to reprimand Rear. She just kept quiet and held on to her brother's waist.


 


 


Rear looking in the rearview. It was heartless to also see the depressed Shica. That prompted Regar to speak first.


 


 


"Today I had a friendly match on the pitch. So, there will be Parameswara High School coming to SMA. You have to be on the bench to see me. Usually if there is an activity like this, the learning hours will also not run effectively."


 


 


There was no response from Shica. The girl hugged her brother's stomach. Regularly looking at Shica's hand that was coiled around her stomach.


 


 


"Happy birthday, Big Bro... I'm sorry, I'm late to say it." Shica melted her head on Regar's burly back.


 


 


"Why? Are you forgotten or busy? You're usually the first to say it." Regar is still disappointed.


 


 


There was no response. Shica asked the question, "Aren't you mad at me?"


 


 


"I'm just disappointed." Regar answered in a flat tone.


 


 


"I'm sorry." Shica breathed a heavy sigh.


 


 


"Okay, I'm fine, Little Sister."


 


 


Silent.


 


 


"Papa often asks you. I answered with a lie. I always feel guilty for you when I lie. But, I also feel sad when papa punishes you." Shica let out a rough breath after saying that.


 


 


Regular listen.


 


 


"I can't guess why I did it? Why would I lie?"


 


 


"Because you love us?" Regar asked with a gaze fixed on the back of Rama who was riding a motorcycle in front of him.


 


 


"True, rather very, very, very dear to you. I feel closer to you than to mom and dad" Shica said.


 


 


"It doesn't mean I don't love them. It's just that my time is more with you. That was before. Now you have your own busy life and leave me alone at home" Shica continued.


 


 


Regar did not respond.


 


 


"Sister...." Shica was annoyed at not being taken seriously by her brother.


 


 


"You're seducing me?" Ask Regar ketus.


 


 


 


 


Regar continued his sentence, "If you think, we'll let you get close to Raihan, it's wrong. Even if you seduce me and seduce Rama, it won't work."


 


 


Shica pouting. He said the truth. He was closer to his two brothers compared to his parents.


 


 


Shica said, "When I speak like this sincerely from the heart. About Raihan. Even if you don't allow me, I'll stay close to him."


 


 


"If you stay close to him, I'll make him suffer" Regar said seriously.


 


 


Shica snorted, why is my brother this one so difficult to be invited to romantic and joking?!


 


 


"Don't be a bad person" Shica grumbled. Regularly smiling, "Gallags like this, you baby, right?"


 


 


Shica rolled her eyeballs, "Yes, I love Big Brother."


 


 


"I can see your face, his expression must be replaced." Rear glanced at the rearview mirror.


 


 


Shica just realized the rearview mirror of the motorcycle was pointing at her. Forcibly, Shica smiled, "Yes, I'm my sister."


 


 


Regularly laughing, "You're a good teaser, don't be like that."


 


 


"Are you tempted by me?" Ask Shica.


 


 


"Don't watch adult movies often." Regar.


 


 


"I was just teasing my brother, not with another man. I don't know anyone but you."


 


 


Regar muttered to himself, "It looks like my brother is out of his mind."


 


 


"Say something?" Ask Shica. Regar shook his head, "No, maybe you heard it wrong."


 


 


"Sister, don't stop in the parking lot, yeah. Brother stopped in front of the gate first to drop me down there then Brother can go to the parking lot after that," said Shica.


 


 


"Yes." Yeah."


 


 


Rear runs his bike through Rama. Rama turned his head for a moment to see his brother's motorbike that drove straight to the school gate.


 


 


"Sister Rear doesn't remember the parking lot, does he?" Rama mutters. He followed his brother.


 


 


Get them in the school area. Regularly stopping his motorbike right in front of the gate, he removed the helmet he was wearing.


 


 


Some of the girls who saw Regar with Shica looked hysterical and jealous.


 


 


Rama stopped his bike behind his brother's bike, "Why stop here? We have to turn around again to park the motor."


 


 


Shica replied, "I want to get down here." The girl got off her sister's motorcycle.


 


 


Regar helps remove the helmet from the sister's head. Shica looked at her brother.


 


 


"There's no trace of Bella's sister's kiss on Big Brother's face, is there?" Ask Shica.


 


 


Regar frowned confusedly, "No, why?"


 


 


Shica pulled the Regar tie making the man slightly approach her. A warm kiss landed on his cheek. Shica kissed Rear. Regar was a little surprised by what Shica did.


 


 


All the students who saw it screamed hysterically. Rama laughed because of the behavior of his brother and sister.


 


 


"Thank you, Brother Regar!" Shica's voice was deliberately raised as if wanting to make the girls even more envious.


 


 


"Ih, cheap woman, shameless."


 


 


"You want to stay with him."


 


 


"Later if Regar's brother gets bored, he's thrown away too."


 


 


Shica did not care about their words. The important thing was that he was happy to see disappointed and jealous expressions on their faces.


 


 


Shica passed to her class.


 


 


Meanwhile, Regar parked his bike with Rama.


 


 


"What has your sister picked up? She's really...." Regar rolled his eyeballs.


 


 


"Your sister too, brother." Rama took off the helmet and put it on the bike.


 


 


"Yes, it's because he hangs out with you a lot and maybe he's just looking through the contents of your laptop." Regar is still grumbling.


 


 


"Thankful she just kissed you on the cheek" Rama said with a laugh.


 


 


Rear also laughed.


 


 


-


 


 


Shica entered her class. However, he did not enter the class, because Rangga called him.


 


 


"Shi, Shica!"


 


 


The girl looked.


 


 


"What's up, Ga?" Ask Shica.


 


 


"You know, no... Raihan didn't come in because of an accident?" Ask Rangga.


 


 


Shica was surprised, "What? Why didn't anyone tell me?"


 


 


"Meishy said he told you, but you just read the chat from him."


 


 


Shica was speechless, definitely brother Regar or brother Rama who opened my HP without permission last night.


 


 


"He's in the hospital?" Shica asked who was worried about Raihan's situation.


 


 


"No, he's at his house."


 


 


Meishy approached the two of them, "Shica, have you met Raihan?"


 


 


"I didn't read the chat from you, Meishy." Shica looked worried.


 


 


"But, there's a report read." Meishy looked confused.


 


 


"Yes, you guys take me to Raihan's house, yaaaa. let me ask for permission from the picket teacher. You two wait here, yaaaa." After saying that, Shica passed.


 


 


Rangga and Meishy looked at each other.


 


 


"Rather...we're allowed to go, no, huh?" Ask Meishy.


 


 


Rangga replied, "It looks like we will be given permission, because some teachers and students there are busy and it is likely that study hours will be slightly disturbed, considering today there will be athletes from Parameswara High School."


 


 


Meishy nodded.


 


 


On the volleyball court,


 


 


Regularly not seeing the whereabouts of Shica, he had told his sister that he was going to fight.


 


 


Did Shica forget?


 


 


Not likely.


 


 


Dion pats Regar on the shoulder, "Captain, are you okay?"


 


 


Regar nodded.


 


 


-


 


 


Rangga who was driving the car seemed to focus on the road, while Shica and Meishy were sitting in the back seat.


 


 


There was only silence between them. Everything is immersed in each other's thoughts.


 


 


"Oh yeah, I've heard the news about you guys winning the Olympics. Congratulations, yaaa." Shica smiled at her friends.


 


 


Rangga chuckled, "I really didn't expect to win. I thought Meishy would win. He understands the material very quickly."


 


 


Meishy smiled with both cheeks flushed red, "You are also great and easy to understand the material."


 


 


Seeing the closeness of Rangga and Meishy, Shica became embarrassed herself.


 


 


"Who's at Raihan's? Did his parents know?" Meishy asked Rangga.


 


 


"There are Riska and Lala... Raihan has no parents. I heard her parents have been dead since Raihan was a child."


 


 


Shica was surprised, geez.. Why did I just know? Why didn't Raihan tell me? I felt like I had become an evil friend to her, not knowing anything about her.


 


 


"Sir Riska and Lala are Raihan's brothers?" Ask Shica.


 


 


"I don't know either" Rangga replied as he shook his head.


 


 


"Sir Riska is Lala's mother?" Ask Shica again.


 


 


Rangga.


 


 


"Raihan's a mysterious person, huh? I think you know him very well" Meishy told Rangga.


 


 


"We were just getting to know on the basketball court at Junior High. He was indeed an easy-going and pleasant person, but he never told her about his family."


 


 


Rangga's words made Shica feel more and more compassionate towards Raihan. The man always looked cheerful and playful, but he was actually very lonely.
