***1 Week Later***
Although he has been allowed to go home, Zhi has not been allowed to take part in the exercises as usual. When the other members were practicing, he just looked while memorizing the lyrics of a song that was just written by Khai.
Zhi turned his head as someone thrust the medicine along with the mineral water on him.
“It's time to take medicine” Emira then sit next to Zhi.
“Thank you. You're just like my brother”
“I want to know about your sister. You look so fond of him”
“He took care of me the most after my mother died. In the past, he often refused the invitation of his friends to play because he did not want to leave me at home alone” Zhi downed her medicine before returning to tell stories.
“When SUN has not become this big and a lot of bad news about us, he asked me to go home. On the one hand I still want to fight, but on the other hand I feel very tired. He said he did not want to study at the University and just wanted to work. But, I know if he's just lying. He sacrificed a lot of time for me, that's why I also want to do the same” Zhi took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly.
“I'm so envious to hear it. Your relationship must be very harmonious” Emira smiled bitterly.
“Yes. I am grateful to have it. When I became part of SUN, I was also grateful to have a sister who took care of me” said Zhi Lirih.
A boy who lived in his mother since childhood, and his father was busy working. Not getting complete affection, and living mediocre. Once a victim of bullying at school, then tried to complain about fate at the expense of his teenage years. The boy has now grown into a strong, successful, affectionate, and handsome young man.
“You are now a bright shining SUN. In fact, many people were helped because of the light you gave”
Zhi just smiled at Emira's words.
“What are you guys saying?” Chan approached Emira and Zhi, followed by the other members.
“It's our secret” Answer Zhi origin.
“Is the exercise complete?” Ask Emira.
“Yes. I'm so hungry” Chan held her stomach.
“This” Emira shared a rice box containing four healthy foods five perfect for the members. “So Mr. Arsel who brought him” Next.
“After this, what is our schedule?” Ask Dza.
“There is a short interview related to the ad you starred in. Only one to two hours, will not be long” said Emira.
“How come, you call it not long?!” Ask Khai.
“Patience for a moment, Kak” Emira smiled, but Khai ignored her. Over the past week, Khai's attitude has changed. Although usually he is also cold and irritable, but for this time his attitude is completely different.
When Emira was distributing juice to the members who were eating, suddenly her hands felt numb from the cold, cold, and accidentally dropped a glass containing mango juice when he was about to put it next to Khai's rice box, it suddenly made Khai doused in the juice.
“You did it on purpose?!” Khai's shout, made Emira feel afraid. In fact, the other members were also surprised because of his exaggerated reaction.
“Ma..sorry sister, I accidentally” Emira lowered her head, not daring to look at Khai.
“Let me clean” Emira takes tissue, trying to clean Khai's already wet clothes.
“Do not touch!”
Emira's eyes begin to heat up because of Khai's impact.
“He's sorry, why your reaction is excessive” Ez said. Meanwhile, Khai just kept quiet not budging.
Khai then moved on, leaving Emira and the other members.
“It seems, brother Khai is having a problem. Usually, she doesn't like to yell at others like that” Zhi pats Emira's shoulder slowly, trying to calm her down.
After finishing training, the SUN members immediately headed to the set to conduct mobile advertising interviews that they were starring in. Emira plays her game while waiting for the members. His eyes puffed up when he saw comments on social media about SUN.
‘Truly terrible!. Although they do not like it, it does not mean they can write evil things like this!’ Oceh Emira while seeing negative comments SUN in the past. He deliberately searched for videos at the beginning of SUN career because he was curious.
‘Famous for the face, has no talent, men who are like women because singing while dancing, like trash that dirty the television, not suitable to be an artist, what kind of comment is this?’ Emira shook her head, inexhaustible by the comments of the SUN haters.
He was silent for a moment, as if he were watching something. ‘Famous for the wealth and power of father’ Emira immediately opened the article, after reading the title.
‘What is possible, this is what Mr Arsel meant at that time?. So, brother Khai ever get frustrated because of garbage news like this?. Why are there so many articles like this?’ Emira muttered when she saw many bad articles about SUN, even the name Khai was dragged because his father was considered influential on the success of SUN.
Emira breathed a rough breath, irritated by the news she had just read. ‘People can only comment without knowing how SUN struggles. In fact, their struggle was not easy. Zhi lost her mother as a child and fought hard to finance her brother who wanted to go to college, as well as to have his father stop working. Chan is fighting the trauma of her parents' divorce and of being able to trust others again. Sister Dza is an adopted child who struggles to live independently, because her brothers hate her. Brother Zal tries hard by learning that SUN has many achievements and is not underestimated. Ez has a family problem that he has alone, because he does not want to hurt anyone. And brother Khai, he's an only child who has enough but is willing to leave all that to find his mother. They tried hard to fight all the fear, but these people said negative instead and did not see their efforts. So annoying!’ Emira closed her eyes, trying to regulate the emotions that were now peaking.
“What are you doing?”
Hearing Chan's question, made Emira immediately hide her phone for fear of being caught if she was reading comments about SUN.
“No. Is the interview over?”
“Iya. Is there any other schedule for us?”
Emira shook her head, "We can go straight home now” She immediately got up from her seat and started cleaning up the members' belongings.
When they finished, they went straight back to the SUN house.
***
Upon arriving at the SUN house, Emira immediately tidied up and stored the belongings of the members to their respective lockers.
“You accompany me?”
Emira turned her head towards the source of the sound, “Where?” Ask Ez who is standing next to him.
“Buy snacks. They want to play monopoly and cards, but no one wants to buy snack”
“Alright” Emira immediately lock the locker, then accompany Ez to the supermarket.
While they went to the supermarket, the other five members were having fun playing monopoly.
“Why does sister keep watching me?”
“Because you cheat the most!” Dza again hit Chan on the shoulder, but this time Chan returned the favor. Instead of being angry, Dza laughed.
While throwing the dice, Zal accidentally throws it too strong until the dice are gone. The members only shook their heads because Zal often acted recklessly.
“You have to find it!” Khai's Order.
“And I didn't throw it strong” complained Zal.
“Not strong how?. Brother throws it with all his energy” said Zhi.
Chan and Dza laughed satisfied because the three members were confused looking for the dice they had hidden.
“Actually, where did you throw it?” Khai asked because his chest was not found, but they had searched for five minutes.
“I don't know. Earlier, I threw it slowly” Zal lowered his head, looking down at the table.
“Sister throws it very strong!” Zhi Protest.
“You guys are hiding it?” Khai looked suspiciously at Chan and Dza.
“Quick return!” Khai is back.
“You're this” Zal throws a gray pillow he took from the sofa at Chan, but it's even about Khai.
“Look, brother Zal dared to throw a pillow at the feet of Khai” Chan laughed complacently, but his laughter stopped because he slipped the monopoly paper while avoiding the pursuit of Zal. Suddenly it made the other members turn around laughing at him.
“We went home” Sapaan Emira made them turn their heads together.
“You bought many snacks?” Tanya Zhi was enthusiastic.
“Eum” Emira then took out what he bought from the white plastic.
“You guys go together?” Chan asked as he took a snack bearing roasted beans on the packaging.
“Iya” Emira smiles like a toothpaste ad.
“Where are you going?” Zhi asked as he watched Khai move from his seat.
“Inrest” Answer Khai Briefly.
“We're still going to play, sister doesn't want to come?” Zhi asked back.
“No. I'm tired!”
“Why did he suddenly change like that?” Dza looked in wonder at Khai who had now disappeared from sight.
“Where are you going?” Emira asked as Zhi was about to leave.
“Drink medicine” Reply Zhi origin.
.
.
.
Zhi knocked on Khai's door, which was still burning, marked that the owner of the room was still awake.
“Why are you wandering around with unhealed legs?” Ask Khai.
“What happened something?” Zhi asked without further ado.
“What does it mean?” Khai was confused.
“Sister's attitude is very strange. Did Emira make a mistake that upset sister?” Zhi narrowed his eyes, like he was investigating something.
“No. Why ask that?”
“Kakak is really angry just because he accidentally spilled mango juice?”
“No. I'm not mad at him”
“Kakak doesn't want to sleep, but purposely avoids it. Actually, what has she done until big brother keeps being cold to her?” Zhi paused his sentence, then again said, “Be nice to him. Other than us, he has no family here. He's trying to do what's best for us. I would really be angry if big brother didn't treat him well!” Zhi.
“Are you threatening me?”
“Iya. I'm threatening brother!. And so, listen to me!”
“You dare threaten me?”
“Okay, I don't care. Importantly, I don't like it if you're being too cold to her. I thought of him as my own brother” said Zhi, then left Khai still silent in his place. In fact, he also slammed the door of Khai's room.
‘That boy, how dare he slam the door in front of me!’
‘Akh, my head is dizzy. I was so upset when I saw him!. In fact, I got even more annoyed when I saw him laughing like that. Why do women seem to piss me off?!’ Gumam Khai slowly.
