As a result of Cheryl's confession, Arlan now asks to meet with Cheryl's family to discuss the problem.
“Pi. Papi doesn't have to do this? Cheryl and I agreed and accepted each other.” Orion prevents the papi from discussing their lies to Cheryl's parents.
“After all the lies you guys did, did you guys think everything would be okay?” Arlan stared intently at his son, disappointed that Orion dared to lie to him.
“Your future is at stake and you consider all is well?” Arlan is completely inexhaustible with Orion's decision to confess to raping just to save Cheryl's good name.
Cheryl herself just kept quiet and sat in the living room while bowing her head, glancing at Orion who was chasing Arlan then the two seemed to argue.
Annetha had just walked out of the room when she heard the commotion from outside, to see her husband and son being seen being in an argument.
“What is this? Why are you fighting?” annetha was confused.
Ever since Orion married and moved, his son never came home, but once came home and was at home, he was involved in a quarrel with the father.
“We discussed after Cheryl's parents came,” replied Arlan then chose to go into the room.
Annetha was so shocked that she looked at Orion who looked anxious.
“What exactly is it, hm?” ask Annetha to Orion.
Orion takes his eyes off the mother because he is confused about how to explain.

“What?” Lusy is shocked when Arlan tells him what happened.
Zayn, Joya, and Kenzo were no less surprised, they really did not expect if Cheryl and Orion lied to them.
“Is that true? Didn't he rape you?” lusy asked Cheryl who was sitting next to him.
“Yes, Mom.” Cheryl answered firmly.
Everyone gasped at Cheryl's confession, until they shook their heads in disbelief.
“Why are you doing this?” lusy asked, disappointed that Cheryl had lied.
“Do not blame Cheryl. If anyone's to blame, it's me. I confessed the act without thinking twice, Cheryl herself also did not remember so she also believed. I lied because I wanted to marry Cheryl because I love her.” Orion immediately defends Cheryl not to blame.
“Due to this problem, you were almost expelled from campus. Do you think you can become a hero by admitting a deed you never did?” Arlan looks the most wrathful and cannot accept the lies of the son.
“I'm sorry,” said Orion who did not defend.
Lusy held a dizzy forehead, while the others looked confused and looked at each other because they did not know how to.
“Because you never raped her, nor did you have any rights to the baby, it might be better if you just divorced.” Arlan made a unilateral decision because he was very disappointed to continue being lied to.
“Pi!” Orion was shocked and looked at the papi in disbelief.
Cheryl is shocked to hear Arlan's words, then looks at Orion with teary eyes for fear if they are really asked to separate.
“Mas.” Annetha did not believe that her husband made a unilateral decision. “Don't make unilateral decisions like this,” said Annetha in a soft voice to her husband.
“This concerns the future of your son, I only think about the best for him,” Arlan replied.
“Best for you doesn't mean best for him. Don't take such unilateral decisions, I don't agree.” Annetha spoke softly but with emphasis, then turned to Lusy and the others.
“Sorry, my husband was just a little disappointed and took a unilateral decision. Tell you what, today you must be surprised as much as we are. Perhaps it is better we both cool the mind first, then decide the best.”
