Riko looked at Ara who was now asleep on the sofa, because there was no way Ara would sleep in her messy room.
Tonight he chose to stay overnight, Riko did not want the events of the last few hours to be repeated when Ara was left alone.
Drrrttt drrttt
Riko stepped onto the balcony to pick up the phone from her cousin's sister.
“Halo kak” napa Riko.
“What's the state of Ara there Rik? She's okay, right? Ara reached the apartment safely, right?” lisha asked without pause.
“The story is long brother. But I am calm Ara is fine. I'll take care of Ara. Now brother rest is late at night. Bye kak” break up Riko.
Riko decided to go back inside and chose to sit on the single sofa. After making sure Ara was still asleep, he also fell asleep in his seat.
The next day Ara woke up groaning to endure the pain in her head. Slowly he remembered what happened last night until he slept on the living room couch.
“Available Ra?” ask someone to surprise him.
“In drink first milk to make it better” said the person who was none other than the teacher and best friend of his brother, Riko.
Ara still silently looked at the man in front of her without taking over the glass of chocolate milk in front of her.
“Still make overnight” looks down.
Ara recalled the incident last night when she tried to kill herself but was detained by Riko. Ara felt very lucky at this moment because Riko saved herself from her own bad intentions.

Riko ran holding both hands. He seemed angry at what he was going to do. If only Riko had been late just a little he could not imagine what kind of situation Ara was in right now.
“What are you stupid huh!?” snapped Riko threw the glass in Ara's hand.
“YA I AM A FOOL, I AM USELESS, THEN WHY STOP ME HAH!!! SHOULD HAVE JUST LET ME DIE” cried Ara frustratedly.

“I deserve to die hiks”
Riko further tightened her embrace letting Ara spill all her grief.
“I hiks I want to join mama hiks” isak Ara.
Riko took off her embrace slowly bergant holding both of Ara's arms. There Riko could see a look of despair.
“Listen to my words and after this it is up to you” pinta Riko on this girl in front of him.
“Ra you know that suicide is a sin. Do you not love your mother? He fought life and death just to make you see this world. And now you're going to kill yourself?

“Now you calm yourself ya” added Riko invites Ara to the living room.
After sitting Ara on the sofa in the guest room. Riko went to the kitchen to get a glass of drinking water for Ara.
“Drink, let's calm” tell Riko.
After drinking a glass of water given by Riko, he placed the empty glass on the table.
“You want to eat Ra?” asked Riko who was inching to sit beside Ara.
Ara just shook her head then looked at the old Riko. So is Riko waiting for Ara to talk.
“What's up?” riko asked while Ara was still silent.
I don't know what Ara was thinking at the moment, she hugged Riko tightly and started sobbing. Riko is shocked when Lali returns Ara's embrace. Rubbing Ara's back channeled calm for her.
After a while they hugged each other Riko realized that Ara's dependence in her arms.
When she saw it, Ara fell asleep in her arms. Riko starts to lay Ara's body on the sofa. Then move to Ara's room looking for a clean blanket in the closet.
