. "It's not me." Said Fabio who sat casually with his legs crossed as if indifferent to the two people who came to see him directly to the company. Although his heart was satisfied, Fabio kept it hidden with his cold demeanor.

"It's impossible if it's Fabio's coincidence." Seno growled and wanted to approach Fabio, but Arisa immediately calmed Seno not to act recklessly.

"Sister.I just want to make sure. Sorry to interrupt sister's time." Said Arisa pulling the end of Seno's clothes and intended to leave the room.

"My subordinates beat him. I'm just threatening him." Sontak, Seno and Arisa stopped, then both turned back together to face Fabio.

"So right? Why would you do that? It could make it harder for us in court." Seno still could not resist her overflowing emotions. Several times he tried to attack Fabio, but Arisa kept him.

"Just vent my frustration. Because he had already dared to make Arisa up to that. But, hearing Haidar no longer mess with you, made me very relieved. He listened to my threats as it turned out." Fabio continued but Arisa did not respond further. He chose to leave Fabio in his room.

. On the way, Seno was still silent and did not want to start a conversation with Arisa. Seeing Arisa who seemed to return to cold mode, it felt back to 5 years ago.

"I didn't expect Fabio's brother to do that." Arisa's speech indirectly broke the silence between them.

"Maybe still love." Cetus Seno just like that. But Arisa is even more afraid, what if Haidar plans to avenge Fabio? During the trip, Arisa no longer talks. Seno leads Arisa to her house for fear that yesterday will happen again.

. The day of the trial has arrived, all members of the Pratama and Putra families are present without exception. Seen Clara was on a different side, she lowered her head not daring to raise her head to reveal her face. It felt like Fabio's gaze was very intimidating to him. Fabio was deliberately present to make sure Haidar did not dodge or even defend himself.

All penalties and fines have been determined. In accordance with the applicable article, Haidar was sentenced to 5 years in prison for kidnapping, and 2 years in prison for persecution. However, at Yugito's request, the prison sentence was reduced and in return, Haidar had to pay a fine for his actions. Already determined, Haidar only in prison for 2 years. As for Clara, her mistake was borne by her father. Even so, he could not just be free. Clara had to be willing to accept the consequences on her own by living a simple life without the slightest luxury because all her assets had been confiscated due to a large fine, and shares were withdrawn by all Haidar business associates.

. The day changed, Arisa more often met Rega compared to Rayyan. Initially Rayyan understood, but he felt Arisa was too excessive. For the past 1 week, both of them are difficult to meet with the reason that Arisa made to avoid meeting with Rayyan. Once, Rayyan accidentally followed Arisa to the hospital. He was really made jealous by the attitude of Arisa who was so close to Rega. What's more when Arisa accompanies Rega in the park. Rayyan, who had no idea what they were talking about, finally chose to leave.

"Daughter is enough to this day. I'm afraid your future husband misunderstood."

"But..."

"I beg the Princess. Don't be nice to me anymore. Other than Rayyan misunderstanding, then I will also misinterpret this good attitude of yours. I want to erase my feelings for you, Put. So, get here. I've forgotten our agreement, too."

Arisa lowered her head then she looked back at Rega holding back her tears.

"Did you hate me?"

"No Princess. How could I hate you."

"Want to?"

"I just hate myself. Already know you belong to someone else, but I continue to admire you."

"Sister... do you know? Looking at brother, I'm like seeing Rama." Lirih Arisa is getting sad.

"Emmm your dead boyfriend and Dimas' sister doctor?" Arisa was stunned, how Rega knew Rama was Dimas' sister.

"Ahaha I know from the doctor directly Princess. Don't put on that face."

"Emmm.. I only heard about your attitude, your heartbreaking story, and then your illness." Especially the last word, Rega's tone of voice changed slowly for fear of Arisa being offended.

"Based on a doctor who can't keep a secret." Said Arisa sighing heavily and annoyed at once. Rega is confused, he thinks Arisa will be angry with him.

"Emmm Princess. Compared to Rayyan and Rama, who do you love the most?"

"Hem? Who yeah? They had a different way, and now that Rayyan is with me, the answer is Rayyan."

"But the doctor Dimas said, you only love Rama even though Rama is dead." His protest was disappointed with Arisa's answer because it was not in accordance with her expectations.

"Maybe yes, because our separation is on the road of death, not on the path of selfishness or misunderstanding. This path is more difficult, even I can barely love anyone else but Rama. But, I think back after I live my life with Rayyan now. If Rama were still alive, maybe because we were not meant to be together, Rama and I would have separated as well. Whatever the way." Clearly Arisa with a smile throw at her last sentence.

"Is Rama that special?"

"More than special."

"May I know why he died?"

"Well...did Dimas not tell it?" Rega shook his head slowly with a curious expression.

"Same with me. Liver cancer. But I was surprised, Rama died, while I did not. We have the same disease and I am even worse. However, what was more painful was not his death, but the memories of his time with him still continued to haunt my mind. Ahhhh when I want to catch up with him. I miss him." Arisa.

"I'm really curious how that guy is."

"Want to meet?" Arisa's question managed to make Rega shudder and glanced at her in annoyance.

"I have to die first? Huh yeah?" Instead of answering, Arisa instead laughed off seeing Rega's silly face.

. After leaving the hospital, Arisa immediately rushed to Rayyan's office. After he submitted a meeting at the receptionist, as usual, guests are always directed to the 6th floor to wait for the highest superior. It's been 1 hour, not usually, Rayyan never came. Even if busy, Rayyan always notify Arisa through message or phone notifications. Until 2 hours of waiting, Arisa felt something strange. As he moved and was about to leave, Daffa appeared to approach Arisa. Seeing Arisa's upset face, Daffa understood and he did not know how to persuade Arisa.

"Aris sorry. He said he didn't want to be disturbed." He said doubtfully. Arisa just smiled faintly in response to Daffa's words.

"After 2 hours of waiting?" Daffa nodded then shook his head slowly as he was completely frozen now. Rayyan who does not want to meet Arisa who she herself does not know the reason, and Arisa who is angry because of Rayyan's attitude.

"Is he that busy?" Lirih Arisa with her face turned away as the two turned their backs to each other.

"Yeah. Maybe." Daffa replied in a very soft voice.

"Tell your friend, I'm waiting for news tonight." After saying that sentence, Arisa again stepped away from Daffa who was still in her place.

"Sorry Aris."
