Reva's feelings were unfounded as she asked Indra to her office to discuss Alea's legal issues. However Reva will definitely be called to provide information on the incident that happened to him.
Reva ventured to come alone to Indra's office. He saw the same busyness as they usually face in companies with high levels of project performance achievement. Reva has been waited on by the legal counsel chosen by Indra.
In Indra's workspace, Reva gathers with the lawyers, Edho and Indra of course. They discussed Alea's current condition. The lawyers gave some files to Indra which he looked at carefully and listened to the chronology of the events from Reva.
Indra's heart throbbed in pain as she listened to her youngest daughter almost lose her life due to a game Alea was not supposed to do. But whatever the current conditions, they must ensure that Alea gets her rights during the investigation process to the judicial process.
Over 2 hours they discussed Alea's case. And it all ends with the fact Reva has to fulfill the call.
Reva is alone in her study. Actually he was just about to enter work the day after tomorrow but when he remembered Alea suddenly a lot of thoughts appeared in his head. About Alea's problems, about their project and about all the plans they've made in the future. Reva sighed heavily, as heavy as the problem she was facing.
A knock awakens Reva from her daydream. It was Edho who came with 2 cups of coffee in his hand.
“Breathe re for a moment, everything must be faced with calmness.” Edho said while giving one of his coffee cups to Reva.
Reva smiled crazily while receiving the coffee that Edho offered. “How are you doing now?”
“I'm good brother. It's healthier.” Sahut Reva who then sipped his coffee is still warm.
Edho nodded with a small smile on his lips. He sat in front of Reva who seemed to be thinking hard.
Reva looked at Edho doubtfully. There was a feeling he wanted to express. And Edho understood the true meaning of Reva's gaze.
“Why, have you got something to say?”
Reva tried to smile at the beginning of her sentence. It felt like talking to Edho would probably make her feel better.
“Kak, when calling later, what I said will greatly affect kak lea in the future right?” reva asked with a worried expression.
Edho stared at the two black beads deeply. The excitement was evident from his gaze.
“Yes, what you say will indeed affect the legal process alea.” Edho tried to be realistic with the conditions that will be faced by Reva. “But you must remember, our country is a fair legal state. You have to believe that everything will go on the right track and that you choose the lawyers to make sure you get the rights in the legal process. You just need to tell the truth, because above all, honesty is always better.”
Edho's words made Reva speechless. There were many things that disturbed his mind but it felt now that Reva's mind was starting to open up. Right, everything he had to face with full honesty.
All along, Edho was the only person who knew Alea well. Behind his haughty and ambitious attitude, Alea was a realistic person. Edho was very confident, no matter what happened to Alea later, Alea would be able to live it strongly.
“Besides honesty, more than that, alea needs people who will embrace her as she goes through all the consequences of her actions.” Edho continued with a faint smile at the end of his sentence.
Reva was fixated with her mind drifting back, thinking about what she should do next.

For reasons of legal clarity for Alea, Reva is now sitting in front of investigators with her lawyers. As with Alea, he was given a lot of questions by investigators and was not short of the time Reva spent.
Twisting the memory of an unpleasant incident, makes Reva's wounds reopen. It was no longer about his disappointment to Alea but rather the circumstances that made them have to experience things that siblings should not experience.
All Reva questions are answered with utmost decisiveness and honesty. In his heart he hoped that every word that came out of his mouth could ease the burden of Alea's law.
What Reva felt at the moment, she was eager to meet Alea and make sure her older sister was okay. And for that, before going home he chose to visit Alea first.
“Kak... how are you brother?” reva asked as Alea was arriving before him.
The time is not long, only about 5 minutes. Reva wanted to use that short time to share her story with her older sister who has been filling her mind lately.
“I'm good, you how are you? Papih and mamih what is healthy?”those pair of sad eyes were now staring at Reva.
“I'm good, papih same mamih also good. And mamih, she misses big brother.” very much Reva said with teary eyes.
Alea bowed, hearing Reva's words her heart slipped. The feeling that Nida felt, she felt.
For a moment they were silent with feelings that could not be explained. Clearly Reva saw one by one a grain of Alea's tears dripping down. Pilu, that's all Reva feels right now. It was very desirable for Reva to hug Alea. For what he did today, he really wanted to apologize if perhaps his testimony could aggravate Alea's legal process. Deep down, he wanted Alea to come home soon and regroup at home. He wants to forget everything and start a new day with his loved ones.

Reva was still burrowing her head in Raka's arms, her most comfortable place as she wanted to take off all her mounds. He sobbed and Raka faithfully rubbed Reva's back gently hoping that, after this, all the burden of Reva would come off.
“Cry, suppose I gag see it re...” wail Raka while peeping the head of Reva.
Reva was crying. How his heart was also sore when he remembered Alea's current condition. The shadow of Nida and Indra's face alternately appeared in his mind. There is a lot of sadness that they hide. Behind Indra's assertive attitude, Reva sure tucked away a lot of anxiety and behind Nida's calm demeanor, her turmoil must have been immense. Everything felt so heavy and stifling to Reva.
Reva long enough sobbed in Raka's chest, and as she began to calm down the pair of beautiful eyes looked at Raka.
“Mas, am I evil?” Reva asked with trembling lips. Her nose is red with her eyes.
Raka shakes. “You've done your part and you're not at all evil, you're as wise as ever.” Raka said as she wiped the tears on Reva's cheek.
Reva took a deep breath. “Too many misunderstandings have occurred, but there is only one certainty, we love kak lea.” Lirih Reva turned her gaze somewhere.
“That's what lea needs right now. He can be very strong as usual or maybe getting worse.” Raka Timpal.
Raka's memory goes back around as she meets Alea at the police station. He did not talk much and for a few minutes with Raka only 1 sentence was spoken from his lips. “Gue thinks too much about what I should be doing, until I wake up, I forget a lot of things I received and can make me very happy and luckier than others.” Alea smiled at the end of his sentence.
Raka saw something different from the current Alea. There was no longer a haughty look with the ambition to realize his wish. Right now, she was just a girl who no longer wanted to feel lonely. A girl who was hoping for all the luck she had before did not leave her, including the luck of being in the midst of people who loved her.
“You can love each other in your own way, that is not owned by other relationships other than the relationship of brothers like you and alea.” said Raka while wiping the head of Reva.
Raka looked at Reva with a smile. His grip seemed to strengthen Reva's heart and eliminate all his anxiety.
“God is too good with me mas. He sent me a guardian angel I never thought I would.” Reva tightened Raka's hand. He placed Raka's hand on her cheek. “Thank you for always being by my side.” Imbuh Reva with a faint smile on her lips.
Raka smiled, how calm her heart was when that face no longer looked sad.
“I'm lucky re, because it's got you who have such a broad heart.” Batin Raka's.
