As Rachel left, Ara became very worried about what the girl said.
“Why did he ask me to keep Abi away? He's good,” his monologue. The girl is currently on the balcony of her room with a cup of tea in her hand.
“So who should I trust?” continued. She knows, she knew Rachel a long time ago compared to Abi.
He had only known the man for a few months. But somehow the comfort provided by the man was able to melt Ara's heart.
It had been many times he had thought about this but similarly, he still had not gotten an answer.
Ara is the type of person who does not easily believe what others say before the girl witnesses it herself.
“That's it, most just a matter of course. Finally it must be because he was jealous of my closeness with other children,” he said.
Ara sipped her last tea to the toilet before she returned inside.
“Ra, I haven't slept yet,” asked the Mother as Ara walked down the stairs. The goal right now is the kitchen.
“Iya Bun's. Yes, just Ara finished tea,” he replied. His intention to go to the kitchen stopped when in the family room there is Mother and Brother.
Ara chose to approach the two old men instead of keeping her glass in the kitchen.
“You yourself why don't you sleep?” ask Ara.
“Still not sleepy anyway.” This time his brother answered. Ara looked to and fro looking for one more figure she thought was missing.
“Mbak to where?” ask again.
“Tuh him in the kitchen again cut fruit. He said he wanted to make a salad,” replied his brother. The night was not too late until naturally they were not sleepy.
“Salad coming!!” his mother shouted from the kitchen with a bowl containing pieces of fruit that had been given grated cheese at the top.
All those who were there focused their eyes on Raisa, the wife of her brother Ara.
“Truly crafts, Ma'am. Can I follow you?” cananda Ara's.
“Bby dong. Take the spoon in the kitchen. Mbak only brought three, because earlier you did not exist,” said Raisa who was embraced by Ara.
Ara went to pick up the spoon while keeping the old cup of tea that she used earlier.
While washing the cup, for some reason his mind suddenly remembered the figure of the Father. His face turned soft when he realized that the hero figure was no longer in this world.
“Ara kangen, Well,” oozing. Even without her noticing, her tears dripped down her cheeks.
Ara was very close to her father. If he is confused, he will ask his father for advice. Perhaps that was the reason why he suddenly remembered his father.
Right now his mind is confused and he has no one to ask for input or advice.
“Ra, are you all right?” A voice from behind him made him quite surprised. Ara immediately wiped her tears violently hoping that the person would not see her.
“Ahh, it's okay, Ma'am,” he replied with a smile on his face.
“Mbak see you cry. Wh why? Want story?” tawar Raisa's.
But Ara nodded. He thinks if something like this is not suitable if he tells his mother.
“Neg. Ara was just glancing around,” elaknya. He was trying to find a reasonable reason, but that was all that flashed through his brain.
Raisa who understood the circumstances of her sister could only nod and rub the girl's back gently.
“Ya. Yuk, he said he wanted to bring a spoon,” he said, which is owned by Ara.
They went back to the family room. “Ngapain is Ra, how long is it?” asked his curious brother.
“Ritual first Bang, let the food not fast abis,” candanya so that the brother does not worry.
“This you.” They end up eating their food with various discussions and other jokes.

“Kak.”
Abi jumped up and immediately turned around in surprise with a call from behind him.
The man tried to hide a photo behind his body. His heart also beat rapidly in fear if his mother saw what was behind him.
“I-iya, what's the matter Ma?” stuttered.
Her mother looked a little at the change in attitude of her son. “Why are you rich in fear?” Instead of answering Abi's question, her mother asked back.
“E-not why-why. Brother was just shocked. Mama's part came suddenly,” the reason.
“Sorry. After the door of your room open so, called from below was also not nyaut,” he replied.
Abi nodded. His hands behind him tried to put the photo into his pants pocket hoping his mom wouldn't see it.
“What the hell are you hiding?” Her mother went into her room and tried to see the back of Abi's body where the man was trying to hide something from her.
“Nothing. I-This is a huge gatel back Brother.” Abi smiled trying to convince her mother.
“Sini, want to help not?” haggling Mama. Abi immediately shook his head. It could be bad if his mom saw him.
“No need. This has been a bit quiet, ” reject Abi smooth.
“Why?” Abi took her mother to sit on her bed and talk about what she was talking about.
“Nothing anyway. Mama just want mastiin you have slept what not. Turns out not.”
“Iya Ma. Get some sleep. It's still not sleepy.”
“Mama know yes that you often stay up late playing games.” Her mother appointed Abi to have the man confess what her mother had just said.
Abi just smiled as he scratched his nape. “Common Ma if night,” reason.
“Yes if the night is sleeping, instead of playing games. Pantsan only if built in the morning do not wake up,” he said.
“Iya, tomorrow wake up if builtin.”
Her mother rotated her eyeballs. “This has been there a hundred times you say so and tomorrow it is still difficult to be built.”
“Ya has Ma. Brother is also in the afternoon class so he can still sleep until a bit of noon. The important thing is not late to campus.”
“This you base. Yes, as long as it is not too late. Don't sleep at night too,” the warning of his Mama who is possessed by Abi.
After saying that, her mother came back out. And Abi breathed with relief because his mother did not suspect him.
Abi went to close and lock the door of his room, he did not want the incident a moment ago repeated again.
After feeling safe, his hand began to take out the photo from the back pocket of his pants. It's a little tangled up, probably because he was sitting down earlier.
“God, how to lupain him?” ogre. He doesn't want to live like this either, but...
In the photo, it looks very clear portrait of himself with a beautiful girl. Both smiling look very happy ‘then’.
