Niken Areline
Obviousness

Heavy rain poured down all over his body. Disguise tears that have been mixed with blood from wounds on the cheeks and lips. Alan knelt hugging Vivi's body. Wish she woke up and maybe took her home. But no, Vivi was already frozen pale.

At the top of the waterfall, he did not want to go home. Letting her body freeze along with her brother's body, allowing herself to drown in grief. His roar was as loud as a river and rain. Perhaps he was shouting, venting feelings over his broken heart. But then again, the bahana around muffled his hysterical screams.

From the direction of the river, something seemed to be moving from the water. A large python came out approaching the two of them. The black-colored snake with a yellow complexion surrounded him, yet it did not coiled even intending to prey on him. Then the snake's head stood straight in front of Alan. Alan looked at it, they both stared at each other. However, Alan no longer cared what would happen. Even if the big snake is eating it.

“Do you realize it?” the Sanca snake spoke in the tone of a woman's voice, slightly hoarse and deep. Alan did not answer him, he just continued to look into the snake's eyes. Maybe Alan was no longer able to speak, he was still roaring in tears. Or maybe even hope that the snake eats it. “Tick them,” he said, the snake spoke while moving around Alan. “But now, you have my strength.” in his grief, Alan recalled an inscription he had seen on the Hirena tree, when he parted with Niken Areline. A caption read: YOU HAVE MY POWER. At that time Alan thought that the writing was made by Niken. But now, it seems like Alan is starting to notice. “Glassball magic, you think it's a coincidence? Everything is arranged! Maybe Niken wasn't aware, but Jaka deliberately made glass-ball magic and chose you as the place where Niken was protected. Know why? It's because you're weak! You fall in love with Niken. It is precisely the power of your love that Jaka uses to protect Niken from the power of Metta stone. After Jaka thinks that queen Rahma killed herself according to the sound of the curse, Jaka uses glass-ball magic and sends it right in front of your sister. Jaka knew that they would soon go after Niken and punish him with a Metta stone, therefore, your role here is very important. See what's going on? Niken got away with her death sentence this afternoon! And, see what the consequences are? your brother who knows nothing becomes a victim!” then, Sanca's snake spoke right in Alan's left ear. “The only family you have, do they care? Even they have not been able to say thank you to you.”

Alan's cry stopped, his lips no longer softened. His face became serious, with a sharp look, he asked the snake.

“What do you want from me?”

Sanca's snake moved away from Alan's ear and went back around him.

“I don't want anything, I just want to tell you. They're not aware of my curse on Niken's blood. The magic of the glass ball makes your heart unite, subconsciously, I can enter into your bloodstream. Dan, look!” sanca's serpent faced off and looked at Alan again. “A part of me stands before you. I'm already in your bloodstream now,” the snake's face is getting closer, its tongue sticking out. “If you ask what I want? I'll say otherwise. What do you want with my power that is in your blood right now?”

The next morning, Alan reported to the police that someone had killed his brother. Alan did not tell the truth, he only told her that a murderer chased her to the river. There they cannot survive, Alan cannot save his brother's life. Alan had attacked the killer until wounded and made him flee into the forest. Alan recounted it very calmly and, escapes the lie detector.

After that, Vivi was buried at a public cemetery near her home. At the funeral, Julia Nada and her father cried. The tone rests on a new Headstone that reads Silvia Wulandari (Name of Vivi).  But not with Alan, he stood firm in front of his brother's grave. The only family he had was gone. Alan's appearance had also changed, Fringe's pony hairstyle had disappeared. His hair is now combed back, looking like a tough guy. No longer was there a sad look on his face, he was very calm. Really calm, and deep.
