. Arisa slowly opened her eyes and found no one beside her. He grabbed his head which was still slightly throbbing.


"Away awake?" Ask someone who is lying on the sofa by closing his eyes and seemed reluctant to open his eyes and see Arisa's condition in the slightest.


"Sister Tio." He then moved from his sleep. Arisa leaned back and looked deeply at Tio who might be entering her subconscious because it was late at night.


"Why am I here?" Said slowly.


"Rayyan said you fainted from exhaustion." Replied Tio who was now awake and changed her position by sitting leaning against Arisa.


"Would your company be stable if I don't work with Aray?"


"Hmm?" Tio frowned trying to digest Arisa's question.


"I don't want to work with Aray anymore brother. He always takes his girlfriend to the office." Arisa continued with a bow and then hugged her knees so softly.


"Why are you again?" Tio asked by approaching Arisa and sitting right by the bed. "Here brother hug. You sad?" Tio asked again spread her arms and immediately Arisa hugged Tio with a soft sob.


"You jealous?" Arisa nodded in response to Tio's question.


"Hey....why are you like this?" This time, Arisa shook her head while wiping the tears that had already flowed down her cheeks.


"Yes, you better get some sleep." Tio said later.


"Snake sleepy?"


"You think?" Tio closed her eyes again, still hugging Arisa. Likewise Arisa who felt a warmth from Tio that made her faintly remember some moments together with her eldest brother.


"Did you ever carry me around in the yard at night?" Asked Arisa quietly but there was no answer, he turned his head and found Tio who was asleep. Arisa smiled thinly and then buried her face in Tio's chest which grew limp leaning against the wall and felt her embrace loosened so that Arisa felt a little cold. Then he pulled the blanket up to his shoulder and let Tio sleep with him. And his shadow when he was a child again appeared in Arisa's memory. However, this time he smiled as he continued to hug Tio tightly.


. The next morning, Raisa rushes to Arisa's room after she returns home due to her mother's prohibition not to stay overnight in the hospital.


"Come bang..un." Instantly the look on Raisa's face turned sad when she saw the scene that made her tight. Even after Arisa reportedly died and disappeared from before them for four years, Tio had never been so close to Raisa. His heart felt pierced by a sharp object and his breath felt severed. It's more painful than just a breakup.


Then, Raisa slammed the door hard making the sleeping brothers wake up instantly.


"Who?" Asked Arisa who was still not fully aware.


"Maybe the wrong room." Replied the same Tio was still trying to wake up.


"Sister.." cried Arisa by pushing Tio's body down. And some things fell down plus the cry of Tio made all who passed by turn towards the door of Arisa's room. One of the officers and nurses immediately entered the room and was astonished to find Tio sitting down while holding her waist on the floor.


"Gentlemen it's okay?" The officer asked and grabbed a sharp Tio glancing at Arisa.


"What's wrong. Just slipped away." Hearing Tio's answer, the officer frowned and looked around, he found no wet floor or other causes that could make people slip.


"Miss is okay?" Asked the nurse by grabbing Arisa's tense shoulder to find Tio's sharp gaze.


"Your face is scary, brother." Cetus Arisa without answering the nurse.


"You're crazier." Reply Tio sniffed then moved and tidied up his clothes.


"The crazy brother. You crazy Tio."


"Ehhh what did you say? Dare huh? Here I teach you a lesson." Tio prepared to attack Arisa with his tickle. The nurse and the officer just stared silly at the two who continued to argue as if they did not consider their whereabouts.


Amidst the brother-sister quarrel, it was seen Dimas coming into the room with his medical device.


"Sister... Aris is fine. It's better." he said soothe so that Tio no longer feels panic.


"Don't be so Aris. If you're sick, don't talk it's okay. Brother doesn't want that to happen again."


"I'm sorry... Aris is really okay, brother. If you don't believe just ask Dimas." Arisa pointed at Dimas with a serious face and tried to convince. However, Tio suddenly touched Arisa's forehead until Arisa herself grimaced in pain.


"What happened to that, huh? You scaring me?"


"You're crazy Tio. It's paining. Did you always torture me? He said you love me the most?"


Hearing the quarrel, Dimas shook his head with a heavy sigh.


"start again. Sus. come. There's nothing to check here. They got the wrong address." Said Dimas who passed by and was followed by nurses and officers so astonished.


"Doctor mean?" Ask the nurse by following Dimas towards her room.


"They should go to a mental hospital." Cetus relaxed.


"So this doctor is always joking." Timpal.


"i'm serious. They're crazy." Dimas turned around with a chuckle then entered the room and closed it tightly.


. Until arriving home, Arisa and Tio's quarrel still continues. Mang Ujang who was in another car immediately tried to separate them. Rahma and Yugito who felt more relaxed just shook their heads. Because the two quarrels very much they miss the other day for four years. Yugito did not take their quarrels seriously. Raisa looks out of the house in a hurry and does not say hello to her entire family. He just left home with the same sports car as Arisa.


"Rais why brother?" Asked Arisa innocently while walking into the house.


"He's always like that. What else when you're not around." Tio answered after Arisa and walked along to the family room.


"Anty.." cried Ghava running enthusiastically welcome Arisa who just stepped into the living room.


"Hi... Where are you?" Arisa asked back at Ghava's embrace.


"Tuhhhh." she replied pointing to the kitchen.


"Ihhhhh why are you so adorable." Angrily Arisa devoured the cheeks of Ghava who laughed because he was amused.


"Wahhh, how quickly did you come home? You were in the hospital yesterday." Syndir Diana who just came out of the kitchen and approached her husband and sister-in-law.


. Every day, Arisa is astonished by the attitude of Raisa who seems to silence everyone suddenly without knowing what the reason is. Arisa felt her presence made everyone closest to her to be away from her. Vienna, which no longer communicates, Rayyan who no longer complains, Daffa is also being assigned by Danu out of town because of the business that must be completed Daffa. Until one day, Arisa deliberately did not enter work without telling the reason to Rayyan or Danu. He chose to intercept Raisa in front of his room which made Raisa shocked half to death to see Arisa who was standing upright in front of the door.


"You crazy? You want my heart out?" Peek Raisa.


"You are crazy. They say you lost me the most than Tio. Then what is this? You even stayed away from me when I was here." But Raisa just turned her face away from contact with Arisa.


"If I had known why you had silenced me, I might have changed what I was supposed to change. And if my presence only makes you this way, then. I better just go. Let me be someone else who clearly doesn't recognize who you are." Arisa was half screaming. And Raisa was still silent. He seemed reluctant to look at his twin sister who he had been looking for and he missed.


"Seeing the attitude of those of you who don't want my presence, it's obvious I shouldn't have come with you here. And I was forced to remember everything when I myself knew the memories you said were all painful to me. Even the Rayyan you said she loved me more than anything, and was willing to cancel her marriage with you cheerfully, and she was also the one who was more desperately looking for me, in fact where? He shows more hate than love. I actually feel that love from people you never told me about. Sis Bayu, Dimas, Daffa, and Sis Zain. If I had known your attitude would be like this, I would never have come here. I'd better stay with Mother and sister Reza alone. They love me more than you." Again, Arisa half-screamed but did not make Raisa speak a word. Just as Arisa was about to turn around and step up, suddenly a loud 'plaque' slap was so loud that it was heard by the two. Her cheeks were hot and throbbing painfully, slowly Arisa grabbed the source of the pain without any expression. He did not even glance at the slightest at who slapped him all of a sudden.


"Mama.." cried Raisa then grabbed Arisa who was sculpting instantly.


"How dare you name that bitch here." Said Rahma with a stifling anger at her chest and teary eyes.


"Mama slapped me?" Ask Arisa lirih. "Why did mom do that? She said this is my real mother. Why is my mom so different from my mom? Mother never scolded me, anything else to slap me. Why are you all hurting me here?" Shouted Arisa who then ran and locked the door tightly. Inside, Arisa cries and calls Sarah and Reza several times.
