"Clay, when I'm sad you'll always be there to comfort me. I am the most insecure woman in the world. When I see the beauty and popularity of other women the envy must come to my heart. I know Clay that envy can shut me down mentally, but how else, this blunt life of mine is a compelling reason why I'm insecure and envious to see the success or happiness that other women feel. Clay, is it impossible for me to get all that?"
"Get what Shae?"
"popularity. Adored by many. Admired here and there. It is respected and appreciated by many people. Including my stepmother and step-sister. I want to prove to them that I CAN!"
"You can work hard until your dreams are achieved. Since the first time we knew him, I immediately felt comfortable being friends with you. You are a future great person, rest assured! You are a good person and also a smart person. God has also given you a wonderful voice to hear. Behind the things that always make you feel insecure, you have advantages that not everyone has. It is because Allah is All-fair to His servant." said Clay, who again shook Shae's heart.
"Alhamdulillah. Discussing the quality of the voice that I have, I think this afternoon I want to practice hard to be able to perform satisfactorily, when I was selected to perform in your community mini concert. When's Clay's concert?"
"Another week. You still have plenty of time for training. For a while you can still receive singing jobs from cafe to cafe with your small band. Count all the singing exercises too, right? Because singing also has to keep practicing."
"You're right Clay. Talking about my little band Golvoi band, Mila the guitarist, Bondi the drummer, same Ore the pianist again where is it? They must be busy with their own world."
"Mastly Shae. Moreover, Mila who hobbies boxing that he also has high ideals to become a female boxer. You can emulate Shae's spirit."
"You're right Clay, hahaha it feels like I'm back to being cheerful. You can always make me immediately forget the sadness I was going through in such a short time."
Shae glanced the other way precisely at some small pole behind the campus where there was a short-haired woman who was standing looking at the two of them with question mark gazes.
"Well that's him! Long life again pomongin it turns out again manequin challenge there. Hahaha, bestie here!" shae shouted to Mila cheerfully.
"Yes I'm coming!" welcome Mila pretending to be cheerful and friendly to both of them.
Mila is harboring a very strong feeling of jealousy when she sees Clay being alone with Shae. Mila was afraid that if they were often alone then for a long time will feel comfortable with each other and finally be so.
"Are you both mulu ya already rich Upin Ipin aja?" said Mila while rubbing Clay's hair into a mess.
"Wow, you say we're rich Upin Ipin? Look at my hair the same Clay's hair a lot of the time you say we're rich upin ipin anyway, hahaha. Mila, tonight we have a job gig at the cafe Roselia. We all have to practice, right?" tukas Shae.
"Yoih dong Shae's. Uh, but how do I see your eyes are so rich? You're crying, Shae? Don't tell me that your eyes are a flickering onion, stale reason ah! What makes you cry? Tell me the same!" mila asked while embracing Shae's shoulder.
"No papa, don't talk about it anymore. Mending us get ready because it's time for us to go to class again." replied Shae refused to tell Mila that she had been colonized by her two half-sisters.
"Yaudah if that is so." said Mila who actually does not care about Shae.
Mr. Farhan was quietly crying in his room while hugging a picture of Miranda his first dead wife. Ten years ago Miranda was found dead in her bedroom. Miranda died of heart failure but actually it was also not convincing Mr. Farhan because previously Miranda had no history of heart problems.
"Miranda, I miss you baby. Really my marriage to Rianti is the thing I regret most in this life." said Mr. Farhan as he sobbed at the beautiful photo Miranda in a picture figura that is quite large he held.
"Because of that our child becomes injured both inwardly and physically. I felt guilty for him." continued Farhan said.
Suddenly Bu Rianti entered the room while carrying groceries. Ms. Rianti ran out of the mall buying some new clothes and money for shopping she got from debt to one of her social friends. Bu Rianti was really surprised when it turned out that Mr. Farhan had still not moved on from Miranda and still kept a picture of Miranda secretly.
Mr. Farhan was surprised to see the arrival of Bu Rianti who suddenly just opened the door of the room.
"Mas! What the hell are you! It turns out you still haven't moved on from that dead man! Conscious mas! It's been ten years that Miranda left you! Still haven't moved on the basis of a useless husband!"
Mr. Farhan got up and wanted to keep the photo in the closet but Rianti's mom quickly seized it.
"There's no story of you keeping a picture of your ex-wife! I'm gonna throw this photo in the garbage dump!"
A loud slap landed on Rianti's bu's face. This is the first time Mr. Farhan has dared to slap his abusive wife after nine years of marriage.
"Mass? What did you just do? You dare slap me mas? You can do the KDRT with me!"
"Bodo very! You also have the heart to do KDRT with my son, Shae! You have no right to destroy Miranda's house! I want to keep that picture in Shae's closet. Miranda's just the most beautiful memory ever etched into Shae's life."
Mr. Farhan came out of the room while Rianti's mother clenched her hands together.
"Shae again Shae again! Watch out for that old boy! Until home I guarantee you, the torment will be met with cruelty Shae! Arghhh!" angered Bu Rianti then slammed all his groceries into the mattress.
Mr. Farhan went into Shae's room. A narrow room is arguably Shae's room is the narrowest room in the house and the one that set Shae sleeping there is Bu Rianti. Bu Rianti only allowed Shae to sleep in this narrow room. In fact, Shae's bedding was already not worth wearing. A mattress that has been very deflated and of course not comfortable if used as a backrest to sleep. Mr. Farhan shed tears at the appalling condition of his son's room.
"Next month if the father payjian, I promise to immediately buy you a new mattress son. The soft, the comfortable." - Sir Farhan, rubbing his tears.
