TRAPPED IN THE NOVEL WORLD
213
At Hideon's house. Ara had calmed Mona down, secretly the girl went into Aluna's room. He wants to tell Aluna a lot tonight.
"Sister," call Ara.
Aluna who had just finished cleaning herself immediately closed the door of her room hurriedly.
"Sister, why did you come here? What if Mona finds out, she might suspect you again" Aluna said in a soft voice.
"Don't be afraid, brother. I secretly came here. I'm sure no one saw me" said Ara.
The two sat down on a long sofa near Aluna's bed. "What do you want to say, Ara? I also want to tell you something important" Aluna said again.
They sit next to each other. "Is Luna really having children?" asked Ara then replied a quick nod from Aluna.
Ara had indeed read the novel, but Ara had forgotten the whole story. The plot of the novel he had read was indeed very cruel. But to find out the female protagonist has children, she does not remember for sure. The novel he is reading is being pursued in an online application. Sometimes Ara himself is often confused to see the content of the story that sometimes changes, such as in a re-edit.
"Luna already has a five-year-old son. The boy has not been found. The adoptive parents, deliberately hiding Zero and now Zero are still unknown whereabouts," Aluna said.
Ara was flabbergasted, she was very shocked. It turned out to be true what Mona told him about Luna this afternoon. Aluna told Ara all about Luna five years ago. When Luna gave birth and who was the father of the child.
"So I already have a nephew? So he turns out to be Kak Alvin's son, and the boy's name is Zero?" asked Ara, without realizing Ara was also happy to hear it.
"Ara, haven't you read this novel. Do you know where Sembo hid my son? You know, right?" ask Aluna.
Ara shakes. Every being in the novel world her memory of this book suddenly disappeared. All he remembered was, Noah and Aluna.
"Why not ask the System that brought us here?" Ara asked back.
"System doesn't give the info. He tells her that the Luna household is at stake. Alvin's family told us to get a divorce" Aluna said.
Ara snorted angrily, many times she blamed Hideon for his behavior five years ago for possibly throwing away her granddaughter. However, Ara again remembered, if the world she was incising now was a fictional world. Ara realized, everything that happened in the novel was just an essay made by someone.
"Divorce? Then let's just go back to the real world!"
"No, it can't happen, it means the mission will end and we will return to the real world bringing nothing," Aluna said, "my sacrifice was in vain. I want to obtain the medicinal herbs that will be obtained after this mission is over. I'll get it for your recovery, Ara," he continued, holding onto Ara's shoulder.

Elsewhere in the Han family home. Zero had finished making fire and cooking water to boil the noodles. His hand very deftly put the noodles into the pot then, open the seasoning and then pour it into the bowl.
Zero looked at the noodles he had made, imagining the food made from flour coming into his mouth. Zero wiped the saliva that almost fell from the corner of his lips.
"Uncle, auntie, the noodles are ready to be served," said Zero holding tightly to a large bowl of noodles, taking her slowly afraid of falling.
Bu Han looked sparkling. He was very hungry, but he could not start a fire himself. The couple then took the chopsticks, took the bowl and ate it together.
Zero sat on the floor while looking at the two eating. It looks delicious, Zero said inwardly. Not looking at him in the slightest, the two married couples looked greedily eating a bowl of noodles together.
"I've told you that the little boy is reliable, just look at the wood that is not dry he can make fire to cook," said Pak Han praised.
"But still, you should be quick to contact Sembo. I'm afraid this little boy died in our house from sickness. Just look, his body is so thin like there is no meat covering his bones," said Bu Han pointing at Zero who was curled up in the corner.
Pak Han who was eating only realized that Zero had not put anything in. Feeling sorry for Zero, Pak Han took one instant noodle and had Zero cook it again.
"Little boy, make this noodle. Eat and rest afterwards," said Mr. Han approaching Zero.
"Uncle, is Mrs Sembo going to pick me up tomorrow?" ask Zero.
Mr. Han regained his senses, at that very moment he was planning to call Sembo again. He's going to his neighbor's house to borrow to call.
"You wait here, eat the full. I'll come after calling your foster parents again" said Mr. Han as he stroked Zero's head. He also told Bu Han to look after Zero.
Meanwhile, Zero just nodded he looked resigned that he would be transferred to another family.
After a few minutes, Mr. Han arrived at the neighboring house and managed to borrow his phone. Not wanting to waste any time, he immediately contacted Sembo.
"Mrs Sembo when did you pick up this kid?" ask Mr. Han.
