The sound of clockwork every second rang out in the hearing of Eca and Erna. Not usually they can hear the sound of clockwork moving around time. The deep silence was able to make them hear what had been going on but could not be heard because it was submerged by a larger sound. In fact, time is still going on.
Every ticking of the moving clock struck Erna and Eca's feelings. Apparently, there's been a lot of time running. The desire to stop the movement of the clock is very large. The desire to hold back the time amounted to holding both their parents who were taking care of the divorce administration. At least they want to hold a few moments of the family's name intact.
No matter how much anger Eca and Erna felt towards their papa, deep down they still expected that figure. But everything has happened, circumstances force them to be able to accept the situation. Whether they accept it with chest space or are forced, they must keep facing.
"when is the trial, brother?" asked Eca who was sitting hugging her legs.
"after the preparation of the dossier, there is still a mediation process and several more stages before the decision hearing."
"old yes"
"who will you go with?" connect Eca.
Erna breathed deeply. If given such a question he always feels smitten by reality. He had to choose one of his parents while he still wanted to be with both of them. Erna ruffled her hair violently. Nibbling his lips to channel his annoyance.
"maybe mama" answered Erna.
"i'm also mom. But papa?"
"maybe with that girl. He's gotta take responsibility?"
This time it was Eca's turn to sigh deeply. He hit his knee slowly. He turned his head up and counted the platphones repeatedly.
Eca still could not believe that papa could do disgusting things until the woman was pregnant. Especially that woman is the same age as him. Enemy anyway! Because the woman's relationship with the former ran aground because the woman was also their family relationship destroyed. Tia was the one he wanted to destroy the most at the moment. He had a grudge against that woman. Until then she won't forget what Tia did to her.
Eca's hands were firmly clenched. His breath hunted and stared intently ahead. Imagine the face of Tia successfully burning embers in the Eca. He will make sure the woman will not be happy for the rest of her life. But Eca's thoughts were renewed when Erna asked him.
"now what are your plans ahead after messing up your first univ entrance exam?" chirp Erna looked at Eca sharply.
"hehehe. . . Excuse me. At that time I could not control myself." said Eca while lifting two fingers, index and middle fingers.
"cz! Then what's your plan?"
"i tried the exam at another univ. But there's only 3 months left."
"okay. Can you try anything else for three months or want a course?"
"study again? Not want brother! My brain still can't accommodate the lessons at this time. He's still filled with mama and papa's problems." said Eca, pointing at his head.
"courses do not have to be about Eca subjects. You can try cooking, sewing, painting, or salon."
"aha! If I try a salon course how about you? Can you??" ask Eca expectantly.
"can. Later brother who charges. You first look for a good course. It's okay expensive as long as the science is of quality."
"get ready my sugar mommy!!"
Erna rolled her eyes hearing Eca's words. Fortunately, his high position in the office had pasasan UMR mampuslah him. Not to mention, her parents' divorce. Not necessarily the papa will give them money again. At times like this Erna sometimes dizzy to manage finances again. There is his mother and sister who are his dependents now.
"sister! I wear makeup tools, huh? I want to try this tutorial." said Eca while showing a video tutorial.
Erna nodded her head. She just hopes her make-up tools can still be used later. Hopefully Eca doesn't break it.
"but promise not to be broken!"
"yes yes"
"i'm not here, let me put it on my sister's face." continued Eca again.
Erna walked towards her sister with resignation. He followed Eca's instructions by following the video tutorial. When Erna opened her eyes to see the result on the glass, she was shocked instead of playing. He's like cosplay being a clown.
"his name is also learning! I deleted it again, huh? I repeated it for him, huh?? Please support your sister" Eca said, pleading.
"four times worse than this I beat you up!"
"hehehe. . . Yes yes"
Eca tried to re-polish the foundation on Erna's face that had been cleaned. It seemed that he was still nervous as he pressed the foundation onto the palm of the hand. He pushed a lot of foundation.
"Eca Castle! Not much! This is his big brother expensive!"
"cz! Brother calm down first."
As long as Eca starts makeup exercises on Erna's face, the girl unceasingly nags the ever-wrong Eca. Eca also always told Erna to calm down. It feels like Erna wants to hit Eca's head. Being faced with amateurs is very emotionally draining.
While they were arguing, Eca accidentally pressed her phone screen. No longer make up tutorials that appear but the news that appears in the net.
Hot news!
The latest report of Mr. Hari Wijaya as a finance ministry official was caught corruption with state losses reaching 11 billion. It is currently being examined at the KPK building.
Eca was overwhelmed by the news she heard. He went back to looking for other related news. The same news also appeared along with a photo of Mr. Hari. Eca scrolled the video that featured many news of Mr. Hari's corruption case. This news is new and is going viral. All the news began to explore the source of wealth and financial statements Pak Hari. Not only that, Mr. Hari's son was also shown his photo from one of the gossip accounts. Can Eca see the clear face of Gian who is wearing a high school uniform.
"sister! This is Gian's father on a corruption case!"
"who's Gian?"
"that's aunt Mita's son. My friend too. He was my private teacher."
"oho the Gian. Oh my goodness, how sorry Ca!"
Eca starts to panic and tries to find Gian's phone number. He tried to call the man's number but was inactive. He also sent a message but was not replied to either.
"the Gian can't be contacted anymore!"
"he must have terrorized a lot of people Ca. This is a viral case. Gian didn't activate his number."
"but I'm curious it's true news isn't it??"
"his father was called to the KPK. Most likely yes."
"astaga pity Gian! Where is he again preparing for the entrance examination univ in this week."
"Try seeing this Ca. Their families are being blasphemed everywhere." pointed Erna at one of the posts on Instagram.
@sii***: anj*ng office! People are tired of paying taxes they are good at stealing!
@nan***: elite living, honest living is difficult.
@ciko**: his son and wife lived lavishly on the stolen property of their father!
@man**: his son went to school with me, and he likes to show off. Every day to school, change cars. It's money corruption! Anj!
"who the hell is this man-man?! When did Gian like to show off at school?! He's got only one car or the most picked up in their family car!"
Erna looked at Eca who continued to get angry. Every time he read the comments that blasphemed Gian, the woman would nag mercilessly. Erna was quite amazed by the soul of Eca's friendship. It's so tight that Erna starts to get confused this is actually a friend or how. Can someone give Erna a clue?
