Bright rays instantly radiated from Juno's face. He who was just looking at the front of the road, now tilted his body facing Aruna. "really? When's that?"
Asked like that Aruna suddenly gagu. His tongue feels too. Never mind to convince Juno, to convince her heart, she still hesitated.
"Sorry, I don't know. And I can't answer that question." Aruna suddenly avoided coming face to face with Juno, her head turning towards the glass window.
Juno sighed. Once again, he had to be patient with Aruna. "I'll stay waiting for you" Juno said sounding sincere.
There was a sense of relief in Aruna's heart. Somehow he was so happy when Juno said he would stay faithful. Slowly there began to be hope in his chest, if he needed to know love.
"I'm in first, yeah!" pamit Aruna shifted her nervousness.
Juno reviewed a smile then nodded her head. "Good break, yeah. Don't forget to invite me in your dreams!"
Smiles they do. Aruna stared at the glare of the eyes which implied a sincerity of a Juno. Aruna's heart rumbled, so the drops of patience Juno gave her would soon be full.

The next day, Aruna was still overwhelmed with curiosity about her meeting with Bana and Danu at the restaurant. The glasses woman also wanted to ask the papa directly about the competitor company referred by Juno.
On the grounds of providing a monthly financial statement file that must be signed by Surya, Aruna also met the main director and his papa in his room.
"Lake in!" Surya said after hearing the sound of knocking on the door outside his room. An Aruna went in there. "Re're? Here, Honey!" Surya was happy when he saw his son coming. Because this is the first time Aruna came alone to the room without being asked by the father. Usually Dena as the person in charge of the accounting file of the financial division, which always provides the report.
"I told you, don't call 'Rere'!" aruna protest with a sour face.
Surya reviews the smile. "We are only two here, there will be no horror" said Surya.
"It." Aruna handed over the file she was carrying. Surya accepted it and read the contents.
"Your tumben did this report? Dena where to?" ask Surya wonder.
"Some, I've been here and someone wants to ask you" Father."
"Father!" Surya destitute Aruna's call to him. "Papa said we were just the two of us. Besides, why are you so afraid of getting caught by someone else if you're a papa's son?" add Surya. There is a sense of disappointment that is reflected in every wrinkle on his face that began to enter the age of twilight.
"I'm not ready yet. In a moment I'll leave here too" said Aruna.
"Why? This is your company, too, son. Papa is retiring soon. I hope you will continue this company." Surya turned to Aruna. His body that is often sickly should not be too tired.
"Have Papa's firstborn replace him! He's also entitled to this company." Surya nodded for a moment. During this time Aruna never gave up anything that belonged to her father given to Kezia. Then now, has Aruna accepted Kezia's existence as her biological sister?
"The two of you are equally entitled to papa's business, son," said Surya.
No one could dispute the stubborn young woman's wishes. His words were long, making Surya unable to deny and could only sigh violently. "What do you want to ask papa?" ask Surya then.
"JackSnack Company, with owner Jackson Ray. They also work in the same field as this company. Is it true, the company is always trying to be our competitor?" ask Aruna straight to the point.
Surya thought for a moment. He wondered why Aruna suddenly asked about the person. However, Aruna is also one of the successors of the Suryafood company, she is entitled to know about everything related to the company.
"Yes, Jackson is papa's old friend. He hated papa because at that time Mr. Jonathan trusted papa more to build this company. Hence he always competes with papa in some of the same tenders."
"Sir Jonathan, Juno's papa?" tanya Aruna interrupted Surya's speech. The man nodded his head, a sign of yes.
A faint smile pebersit on Aruna's lips. There was a strange vibration radiating within his body, as if Juno's voice was whispering in his ear.
"Jackson always tried to seize the tender of this company, and also the trust of Pak Juno. After failing to gain the trust of his parents, Jackson attempts to gain the trust of his son. Previously, Mr. Juno had begun to be affected by him. But lucky to have you, Re. Juno sir really likes your performance, so he's not going to switch the same Jackson," explained Surya. The old man never knew, if Aruna wanted to, the son of the largest shareholder would be a son-in-law.
Aruna shook her mind about the meeting between Bana and Danu. Are they traitors that Jackson keeps in his papa company? He also remembered a suspicious person with his phone chat in the hallway near Aruna's room last time. Is that person one of them? Aruna has to investigate.
"You why all of a sudden this nanyain? And how do you know about Jackson's name? You never talked about him, did you?" Surya's question restores Aruna's dreamy mind.
"From Ju— ...." Aruna nodded for a moment. He almost slipped and mentioned Juno's name so familiarly. It will make Surya suspicious of the relationship between the two. Aruna immediately said, "i mean, ju .. I honestly did not accidentally hear from some employees who again said that. That's why I'm curious to keep going to Papa." While sighing, Aruna made up a story.
"Oh, that's it." Surya nodded while holding his chin.
"If so I say goodbye, Pa. Going back to work again" said Aruna. His body turned around and walked towards the door. However, when Aruna managed to open the door, Surya called his name back. Aruna stopped and faced her papa again.
"What else is it?" asked Aruna who was standing in the half-open doorway.
Surya got up from his seat and walked over to Aruna. "Papa would like to apologize to you. Because all this time has covered your relationship with Zia. Papa also knows, papa's mistakes with your mother can not be forgotten just like that. But, papa please be with you. Once you know everything, be nice to Zia. He's your big brother anyway."
Aruna was silent, her hand still grasping the doorknob she just turned. His conscience is at war between hatred and regret. Aruna is a fool, should she make peace with Kezia? Which means she also has to accept Erna as the mother's replacement?
Take a deep breath, then let it out slowly. Aruna tried to hoard power. "I don't want to talk about that anymore, Pa. Excuse me!"
"Rere!" Surya tried to chase after Aruna who immediately took a long step. The woman walked over while bowing her gaze. Occasionally it is seen wiping his wet cheeks because the clear crystal has melted there.
"Rere who is Mr Surya? Wasn't that Aruna?" Someone's question from the back made Surya immediately turn around. That person had been listening to the conversation between the boy and the father from a distance.
"Sir Bana?" said Surya on that.
