. Oma Galuh stared fixedly at Rayyan's suddenly nervous face made. Clearly he felt angry at what Arisa was doing, because this was not just about family pride.

"Is it because of Oma who got in the way of your relationship?" Ask Oma Galuh next. Rayyan just turned her face the other way, she could not return to look at Oma's eyes which she had not realized was now turned into a wistful.

"I'm sorry Oma. But--"

"If Risa already has a lover, Aray will accept whoever Oma wants as Aray's companion. This time Aray really meant it. Without any terms and agreements. If Oma wants Aray with Clara, fine. Aray will take it." Rayyan interrupted Oma's expression. At once Oma and Sonya were surprised to hear Rayyan's sudden speech. Sonya couldn't believe that. He knew how Rayyan had been. Although it feels like the thing that used to be repeated, Rayyan's feelings for Arisa do not fade. Sonya thought that Rayyan would find a lover while in America for years. But in reality Rayyan still closed her heart to another woman. It was as if the woman in this world was just Arisa.

"Aray.." Oma felt guilty.

"Sorry Oma. Aray's home." Rayyan said that just passed right away.

"When are we like this, Risa? Is it true that your feelings for me are gone?" Inner Rayyan who was reluctant to stop her steps.

. Late in the afternoon, Arisa, who is preoccupied with spending time with Tio and Raisa, forgets the schedule of taking out the plane that has been waiting for her on the Pratama family runway at Reza's order.

"Let's go home." Take Tio to wake Arisa up for a moment.

"Yes my. What time is it? Brother I have to go back. Brother Reza must be waiting." Arisa said frantically after she saw the clock in her hand that had shown at 17:12.

"Aren't you planning on going home? You are the daughter of my father and mother. You're my sister. No one can break our bond as a family. Brother please. Go home a minute. Even if it was only last night. Poor mama. He always asks you how you are." Clearly Tio was holding Arisa who was about to leave.

"But...."

"Son Reza let me do the talking." Typal Raisa's convinced. Thinking over and over again, Arisa finally agrees to Tio's desire to go home with her.

"No harm, right? Even though I don't miss my mom." Inner Arisa while following the steps of her eldest brother.

"You coming with me or with Raisa?" Tio's question stopped suddenly.

"Emmm.." Arisa looked confused, she looked at Raisa with a questioning look.

"Why?" Raisa asked with a tone of ridicule.

"Sister Tio alone." Replied Arisa turning her face angrily. "If it's with Raisa, I can be thrown in the middle of the road." Continue to step back and pass Tio then directly enter Tio's car.

"Sir driver... Come on!!" Shouted Arisa from inside. Tio chuckled and followed Arisa to her car. Raisa who was watching him only smiled faintly as she grabbed his chest slowly. There was a slight feeling of tightness that began to interfere with his breathing.

. Until the night, Reza several times glanced at the clock in his hand, he was anxious why Arisa never landed. As she was about to call Arisa, her screen lit up before revealing her mother's contact name.

"Hallo mother." Sweepings.

"Za... Where are you? Is the Princess with you? Why haven't you come home?"

"This is Reza waiting for Princess Mother. The princess had a need. Maybe I'll be home soon."

"Yes, not nights."

"Yes mother." for a moment, Reza sighed deeply and exhaled slowly when the phone connection was cut off.

"Maybe I'll have to wait a little longer." Reza muttered in a quiet voice full of optimistic feelings. Sometimes he turns on his phone screen to just make sure if there is a message from Arisa. Whether it's good or bad news. She thought, Arisa will not deny her words this afternoon.

Late at night, the driver wakes up Reza, who is asleep leaning in the car.

"Why mang? Is the princess here?" Ask Reza directly.

"Not sir. But according to the guard, there's no information there's gonna be a plane landing on you." Hearing that answer, Reza instantly held tightness in her chest cavity. Disappointment crossed Reza's heart because Arisa who did not give any news.

"Alright mang. We're home." Reza tried to calm her feelings. Along the way, Reza is restless. What he should tell Sarah.

"Mangs. Just go to Zain's apartment. And tell your mother that the Princess came home to the apartment with me."

"But...."

"I don't want you to worry. Just say what I say."

"Bright sir." He answered by still watching Reza from the inner rearview mirror that showed Reza's sad face and his gaze that did not turn away from the outside view.

. At Yugito's residence, Arisa is enveloping Rahma who has fallen asleep. Then he glanced towards the door, as if through the door staring at Yugito's study. She was so shocked when she arrived home, Rahma collapsed unconscious. Not only himself, Tio and Raisa also simultaneously grabbed Rahma and brought her to the room.

And Arisa did not expect from Ina's story that Rahma kept silent on the porch of the house hoping Arisa came. But today, Rahma's hope is realized and even welcomed with her unconsciousness. Arisa looked at Rahma's face. She misses the touch and attention of her mother. In the middle of his daydream, felt a hand grab his shoulder. Arisa turned to see who the owner of the burly hand was.

"Is this because of Aris?" Arisa asked again looking at Rahma's face.

"No. don't think about it. Mama's not sick because of you." Tio's reply was convincing.

"Anty.." call Ghava in the doorway. Arisa flipped over her body and immediately spread her arms to welcome Ghava.

"Why are you?" Arisa asked who was astonished to see that there was a bruise on Ghava's forehead.

"Custom. So hit the table." Diana answered with a flat face.

"What's wrong. men are like that." Arisa Ejek.

"Rais.... What does Ghava mean by Fariz?" Tanya Arisa turned to look at Raisa who was busy with her laptop.

"Hmm?" It was Raisa who turned her face without turning her eyes away.

"Forget over. Just continue with your work." Arisa turned her face away.

"Eh.." this time Raisa rolled her eyeballs right at Arisa. Unknowingly, Raisa was so deeply staring at the look in Arisa's eyes that felt different. Although his attitude was still cold, his gaze was now a little warm and calm. What kind of education made Arisa change. For a moment Raisa felt like being in Arisa's position. He was curious about the affection that Sarah gave to his twin sister.

"When are you going back to Bandung?" Raisa asked suddenly, amid the silence of her family, all eyes were on Raisa who now looked down in lethargy.

"Don't know. I saw my mother's condition first. If it's better, I'll come right back. But if it still hurts, it might take longer. Because relying on you is impossible. You're busy now." Hearing Arisa's reply, Raisa clenched her hands slowly. Arisa's saying has a point. Tio's schedule has been very busy since Yugito became ill. And indirectly, he was increasingly busy organizing the agenda and all the needs of Tio.

"Then, what about your job? Isn't being president very busy." Reply Raisa turned to look at Arisa.

"So you don't want me to leave immediately?"

"Not so...."

"Then? Do I have to leave my mom and dad when you're busy working? And do you rely on bi Ina and sister Diana alone? Don't be stupid Rais. Diana's work is also very much in the boutique. And bi Ina is also not constantly beside them." For some reason, the speech that Arisa made Raisa's chest feel tight. Although it is true, but this feels to be a satire and slap for him.

"Do you blame me?" Raisa asked out of her seat.

"Why do you think that?" Arisa replies calmly and releases Ghava from her lap.

"Because of every word you say it's like you're blaming me because I can't take care of my mom."

"I don't blame you."

"Then what?"

"I'm just talking what it is. You're busy."

"I'm busy for the sake of family. And vou? What the hell are you doing? You didn't want to go home, and when Dad got sick, you chose to go back to the woman who destroyed our family."

"Rais stop." Tegur Tio with a furious voice.

"Son't you just rebuke me? Hmmmm? Ohh. haha I forgot. Aris is my brother's favorite. So it's appropriate that brother doesn't rebuke her."

"It's not so Rais. Sister just...."

"What only? Aye right? Aris is my brother's favorite sister. As long as I'm alive, you've never loved me." Raisa's scream is now accompanied by so crowded sobs.

"Can you not scream? Mama will wake up later." Reprimand Arisa while coding Diana to take Ghava out with her.

"Rais. Brother said stop." Firmly Tio grabbed both of Raisa's shoulders.

"Why? Brother is like that, right?"

"Let's get out. Mama could be distracted later." With her subtle persuasion, Tio took Raisa out of her mother's room.

"What's wrong?" Yugito asked who just came out of the study after he heard a commotion from the direction of his room.

"Just misunderstood me." Tio's reply was convincing.

"Why is Rais crying?"

"Emmm...."

"Dad... Aris let me go to the room." Arisa interjected and just passed through Yugito.

"All right." Yugito stared at Arisa's departure.

"Rais. Tomorrow we have-".

"Can I have a day off?" Yugito frowned to find Raisa's question interrupting her speech.

"I'm going to take care of my mom tomorrow. I don't want to burden Aris."

"Did you guys fight?"

"Don't listen to him, Dad." Shouted Arisa from above.

"Aris!" Tegur Tio who responded to a lazy delicacy by Arisa.

After closing the door, Arisa immediately passed to her balcony which she had long left behind.

The shadow of a suicide attempt began to cross his mind.
