The girl's face moved as it touched Abra. "Mk."
Abra stopped touching him and waited.
The girl started to open her eyes. He was gathering consciousness. "Oh." He raised his head. He was surprised to lean on the man. "Oh, sorry Brother." He blinked his eyes. "Sorry ..." He rubbed his eyes with his right hand.
Abra just smiled.
The girl's cheeks were flushed with embarrassment. "Sorry, brother."
"It's okay."
The sunlight that entered through the window, began to illuminate the room. "Eh, it's dawn? Ah, I haven't prayed Fajr yet!" The girl immediately stood up. He went to the bathroom outside and Abra went to the bathroom in the room. For a moment both of them had finished their morning prayers.
"What do you want for breakfast?"
"anything. Ah, there's bread. I want some bread. There is an Oven Toaster, I want to bake bread" Shasa said cheerfully.
Abra had never seen Shasa's face before. Is it because the weight has been lifted so that what he sees now is the real Shasa?
Although his face looks still sleepy but his eyes glow indicating that the owner of the netra was happy.
"It's so sweet just because you eat bread," ledek Abra.
"I like toast," the girl said with a smile. He put 2 pieces of bread into the Over Toaster machine and pulled it down.
"Times?"
"I like the smell when it burns and it tastes crisp. Do you have butter?" Shasa opens the Abra fridge.
"Oh, I forgot to buy it. There's jam."
"Yeah ...." The girl's face looked disappointed.
"If I buy, will you stay here?"
"Eh?" The girl glanced at Abra as she picked up the jam. "We are not ...."
"Mahram, yes I know. I'm just kidding." But Abra's eyes said something else.
The girl took a plate and a knife waiting for the bread to ripen. "Sister Abra would?" Shasa offered her bread.
"Can." Abra poured the juice from the fridge into the glass she had already taken. Before long, the bread skipped a little over the mark had finished on the roast.
"Wear jam?"
"Yes." Yeah."
Shasa gave strawberry jam to the toast he had just picked up.
"What kind of hostels do you want?"
At that moment, Shasa stopped his activities. He looks worried. "Mmh, I .. Can you borrow some money, sister?"
"Money?"
Instantly Abra saw the girl was confused to express her wishes. "You ... don't have money for rent?" He could guess what that meant.
"Mmh .. a little. Borrow 2 million, I'll pay my salary" said the girl slowly. It seemed like he was not used to borrowing money so it was difficult when saying so.
"2 million?"
"Mostly yes? Well then, 1 million, that's okay," The girl tried to smile even in awkwardness. He sat a little restless on the dining table chair that made Abra feel sorry for him.
Shasa was a little confused to communicate his desire to borrow money because he himself was not close to Abra but to borrow in the office was also very unlikely because he only worked a few days and now he was with the man, having no choice, he borrowed from the man.
Abra just silently looked at the girl and Shasa had no idea what the man was thinking. After giving jam to the two loaves, Shasa thrust it slowly at Abra.
The man without saying anything stood up from his chair and stepped inside the room. He soon returned with his wallet. He took out a black card and thrust it at Shasa. "No questions asked.(no questions asked)"
"Oh, I'm not asking for much, sister, just a little."
Abra looked back at Shasa with a serious face. "You don't have money, do you? Can I ask you a question?"
"Mmh?" Shasa straightened his back. "I'm just ...."
The words hang and the man waits. Abra knew it was very difficult for Shasa to tell others about her difficulties and she was afraid that her questions would hurt her self-esteem. He returned the black card to Shasa. "Just use this, it's okay."
"Did Abra not have another card?" ask the girl curious.
"This debit card, right?" Abra took out another card from his wallet.
"Yes that one." Shasa had already advanced his hand wanting to ask but Abra's next sentence stopped him.
"But it's for my wife because it's my salary" the man replied with a smile.
"Eh ...." Shasa pulls his hand back, but then he realizes Abra just outsmarted him. "Sister, this card is too flashy, it doesn't suit me."
Abra leaned forward and placed his hand on the table. "You don't actually hold money at all, do you?"
"Eh, pu-punya," said the girl trying to lie.
"Let's see, if it's a lie you have to use this card" challenge Abra.
Shasa instantly scowled as it was impossible to win against Abra. "Kaaak ..," Shasa whined at the man but was answered with a gentle pinch on the girl's cheek by Abra.
"You're the habit of lying."
Shasa brushed Abra's hand slowly. "Belg ...."
"Just wear it! With a million dollars, you want to rent a cost-bare what price?"
Shasa was still frowning as he took the black card slowly.
----------++++---------
Rika rushed down from the stairs but the shouting sound from the living room stopped her.
"Rika, wait!"
"Otherwise?"
"I asked for Bima's phone number and her office address." Damar approached and thrust his hand.
"For what?"
"Shasa won't be back."
"Why is that?" Damar knitted his brows.
"Because he said it himself." Rika left the man.
"Hey, did you fight with him?"
"Yes, why?" said the long-haired girl who had drowned without turning around.
Damar immediately chased him. "Hey, you must have kicked him out, right?" He precedes Rika and blocks the girl from leaving. He needs an explanation.
Rika pointed at the man's chest violently. "Who do you think you are, huh? You're just my half-brother! You just hitchhiked here, WORK with my Papa, so don't think you're entitled to organize my life because you're nobody, okay?" Rika with an angry face. He's upset from last night Damar keeps bothering him. "Udah get out there! Just narrow my way. Huh! " He pushed the man roughly to the side.
Damar was forced to only see the stubborn girl leave while clenching his fists. The mouth is venomous!

Today the concert of artists Gania and Abra noticed all the details of the finished preparations in the studio. He was busy pacing up and down making sure everything was going the way it should be.
Shasa took a look at the preparations up close. He also had a chance to see his cousin Rika in the studio but only briefly, therefore he was not far standing from Abra.
There was Kevin there too. An unusual sight because he was never there during the preparation in the studio. Usually he is there during the event, even then because he became one of the invited guests. Sometimes he is seen paying attention to the preparation in the studio, but occasionally he also tries to approach Shasa. "Shanum."
"Yes Brother." Shasa.
"May I call you Shasa like Abra?"
"Oh, may Brother. Please." The girl was a little reluctant to be with Kevin because besides not being so familiar, the man was also her brother Abra.
"How about we get a drink in the cafeteria?"
"Eh, just later, brother. I happen to be not so thirsty."
"Buy it, bring it here. All for Abra."
The girl glanced at Abra who was still busy looking at the stage preparations. The artist has come and performed a rehearsal rehearsal (workout) singing using the stage provided and he is also busy watching the artist sing.
Shasa looked back at Kevin. "How about I buy it, you'll wait here?" He was afraid to go with Kevin.
The dapper man approached and whispered in Shasa's ear making the girl uncomfortable. "I just saw your cousin here so I'd better go with you?"
"Mc ...."
Shasa had not had time to give a rebuttal, the man had already held his hand towards the outside.
"Bra, I'm out for a second, okay?"
Abra, who saw Kevin holding Shasa, felt safe. "Yes." Yeah."
The TV employee was also relieved, Kevin came out of the room because the existence of Abra alone had made the situation feel formal especially with the entry of Kevin into the studio. Makes them feel tense.
"Sister."
"If you don't want to hang out in the cafeteria, we'll bring the drinks here, okay?"
Shasa looked at his hand that Kevin was holding. Yes, but you don't have to go with gini. I'm ashamed ... He wanted to protest but he did not dare.
Along the way Kevin happily took Shasa. It felt like touching the girl was a miracle.
"Sister." Shasa finally tried to gather courage. "I'm ashamed to hold hands like this."
Kevin stopped their steps.
"Oh, sorry? I'm just spontaneous." Kevin took off his grip.
"Eh, yes." Shasa smiled faintly.
"Come on." The man gave the girl a path first. "Ladies first.(woman first)"
But still, Kevin stepped with the girl to make the girl back awkward. Walking in front of him alone was already quite awkward for Shasa, as he was no one let alone side by side with her.
They finally reached the cafeteria and ordered drinks.
"You still live in your cousin's house?" Kevin opened the conversation.
"I'm looking for a contract" the girl replied politely. He accompanied his words with a nod of his head.
"Don't be so formal with me, I'm just Abra's sister."
Shasa nodded his head slowly.
"I'm glad you finally moved. Where are you moving to?"
"Don't know Brother."
"How about you rent an apartment near Abra?"
Shasa surprised. "Sorry I just worked, brother. Ordinary officer."
"Do I want to rent it out for you?"
The girl came back shocked. "Ah, no need, brother. I'll just rent the boarding houses that fit my pocket."
Kevin pouting. He doesn't like what he hears. He could imagine the slum where Shasa lived, but he could not force it because he could feel the girl trying to refuse his help. He wanted to offer a job, but the problem was that Rika also worked there.
After buying their drinks back. Shasa brought the drink to Abra making Kevin pout again. The girl intentionally did so because she was 'cool' to be next to Kevin.
"Thank you?" Abra drinks the juice Kevin bought.
"Sir, sorry. Called by Gania." An officer told.
"OK." The man went straight to the artist who was beside the stage.
Shasa, who was alone, saw Kevin's back, wanting to get closer, making him move in the other direction.
As he was walking alone, he felt a beam of lights falling on him that moved irregularly from above making him look up. Right at that moment, the huge lamp shot towards him making him panic.
"Damaz!!"
Bruk!!
