I told you, don't call me 'Rere'! Rere is dead! I hate Papa, I hate you!" peekkik Aruna's. Her tears finally spilled out as well. Then he took a long step towards the chair where his little bag was left behind earlier. After that, he also left.

Erna was about to give chase, but her hand was held back by Surya. "Leave it! Let him ponder over everything!" surya forbids his wife from pursuing Aruna.

"But, Mas ...." Erna tried to take her hand off Surya's check. His gaze seemed to be begging for him to be allowed to chase after his stepson.

"He won't beat you up, Erna. His heart is in a frenzy. Leave him alone first!" sergeant Surya. Finally Erna relented, then hugged her husband's body to spill her sadness.

Elsewhere, Aruna drove her car with a feeling of indecision. He was confused how to behave. Should she be happy because she has a sister? Or hate the father who apparently prefers Erna and her child rather than him and his biological mother. Aruna remembered all the events that had passed with Kezia. They never got along. Aruna was always cold with Kezia. Often quarrelled over all the goods given by his father. According to Aruna, Kezia did not deserve anything from the father. And what makes Kezia more cornered, his mother always defended Aruna. However, Aruna always thought it was just a falsity.

"Araghh! So I should call him 'sister' now? What kind of reality is this?!" Aruna groaned in frustration while hitting the steering wheel. Suddenly the memory of his mother telling him not to hate his new family of papa flashed back in his mind. "So this is what Mama meant? Why didn't Mom say it from the beginning? Why would you prefer them, Ma? Why?" Aruna roared again. He pulled his car over on the side of a rather quiet highway. On the bridge below is a river.

Aruna was crying a sigh, she did not know what to do now. The reality he got now made him even more hurtful to his father, and felt guilty with his siblings. Kezia was not even allowed by her mother to help her own father's efforts, for fear of Aruna being hurt. It felt like Aruna was eager to vent her anger by drowning herself.

Getting off her car, Aruna walks down the shoulder of the road on the side of the bridge. The vehicles there are not too crowded, making Aruna a little quieter without any noise. Aruna walked out of his car on a concrete bridge that connected the road over such a large stream. On the edge of the bridge he stood. Look at the water down there. The water looks calm, but surely able to wash anything that goes into it. Aruna had thought, if he went into the water, maybe the problem would also flow. However, Aruna was not that petty. She was not a weak girl who would lose out to trouble.

If you think life is always difficult, what is possible if death could be better? Everyone must have difficulties in life, but those difficulties will not stop by ending life by eliminating themselves. Aruna also studied religion. Eliminating oneself is forbidden in the teachings of his religion.

"That's a hell, my life?" moaning Aruna while sighing long. He brooms with rough melted tears that occasionally still come out. Aruna realized, she had to be tougher.

Aruna propped her arms together at the iron barrier of the bridge. His head looked up at the sky. Staring at the white clouds that were running around being chased by the wind. His mind looked for calm.

"Meow!" The sound made Aruna's attention diverted. The girl circulated her gaze looking for the source of the voice she believed came from a cat.

"What are you doing there?" After finding the figure that Aruna was looking for, she asked. In fact, the cat did not understand the words of Aruna.

"Hey, diem over there! Let me save you. Don't move too much! Later you fall," cried Aruna again, and only replied with a cat voice that is not understood at all.

Aruna stuck her hand through the iron gap in the form of a small fence. "Ah, I don't think it will fit, deh. The cat is big" said Aruna said himself.

After thinking for a moment, he finally recklessly climbed the guardrail so that he could take the cat more easily. However, when he had just stepped on the iron pedestal, suddenly his body was pulling from behind, until his body slammed and fell into someone's embrace. "Let'soo!" peekik Aruna was surprised.

"Aruna, what are you doing? You can't do that shit! Whatever your problem is, I'm sure you're strong enough to live it" said the perpetrator, whose voice is male.

"Please!" Aruna rebelled asking to be released, but the man hugged her even tighter.

"I'm not going to let you go. You can't die this way. I still wish you could live a long life with me, Aruna." The man's words made Aruna's head look up. Looked at the man's face clearly.

"Yuno!" peekkik Aruna's.

Their eyes are locked. Juno–si the mistargeted hero stared fixedly at Aruna's brown bead. Highlights of his eyes look soft and swollen like crying, there are dark circles hanging on the eyelids because of lack of sleep all night about the cockroach incident. Juno who knew nothing felt pity with Aruna's condition. He thinks that Aruna is in trouble with her family. Until he couldn't rest well all this time. Yes, Juno knew about the Aruna family matter from the Alfath. Since his meeting with the Princess at that time, he immediately interrogated Alfath. And Juno had been missing, for she would not be hated by Aruna if she kept forcing her, as Alfath had said.

"Juno, pelein, no! What the fuck, anyway, you?" Aruna rebelled again. Being hugged so tightly made it feel tight.

"I'm not going to let you go. You can't die" Juno choked in fear herself.

"If you don't let me go. That cat is going to die."

Juno gasped at hearing that. Slowly his embrace began to loosen. Aruna swiftly escaped by pushing Juno's body a little hard. "What mean? How, cat? Aren't you the one who wants to throw yourself in?" june asked confused.

Aruna adjusted her gasping breath, then looked at Juno with a cruel look. "Splitting yourself what? I want to save the cat." Aruna's hand was fixed on a poor cat that looked trembling waiting for help.
