Daffa chuckled to find a flat look around him.

"Hehe I'm kidding." His voice raised both his hands.

"Aris... but you're okay, right? No one's sick, right?" Rahma asked without giving Arisa a chance to answer one question at a time. Arisa shook her head while throwing a smile at Rahma.

"What's wrong ma... Aris is fine." Arisa's reply was convincing.

Widia and Arya approach Arisa and the two say goodbye. Likewise Bayu who with a heavy heart must go home first because he must prepare the need for his departure back to Jogja.

"Take care of yourself." Bayu rattled Arisa's hair before she left. Rayyan turned her face to watch the scene.

"Is my sister going?" Tanya Arisa stopped Bayu's steps in the doorway.

"I have to go back to Aris' house. Now this town is no longer where I come home." Obviously Bayu then continued his steps. Arisa looked down listlessly at Bayu's reply.

"You didn't even deliver me, at least just watching me walk in the doorway. I was expecting it Aris. Even if you're with your girlfriend now." Mumbled Bayu who did not look back again. His car drove away from Yugito's residence. But Bayu was surprised why Fabio was still in front of Yugito's house, even though all the invited guests had disbanded and left Yugito's residence. Bayu turned his face when his gaze and Fabio met. He didn't want to see Fabio's haughty face for much longer.

Seina stood in front of Arisa by rubbing Arisa's hand.

"Sister don't cry. If Aray's bad, hit him." Said Seina innocently and still grabbed and then hugged Arisa's arm.

"Sut.who taught you to talk like that." Tegur Rayyan rubbed the rough face of Seina.

"Sister Daffa." Replied Seina pointing at Daffa beside Rayyan. Rayyan glanced cynically at Daffa who again chuckled and shifted away.

"You taught my sister what, huh?" Rayyan's growl grabbed Daffa's back collar.

"No. I didn't teach you anything."

"Continue?" Rayyan turned to Seina who was laughing amusedly at her brother's annoyance.

"Haihihah... Sein was just kidding, brother." Said Seina breaking Arisa's laughter alone. Tio smiled at how happy Arisa was right now. Tio thought about remembering the last time Arisa laughed like now.

"Arise... Rais.. Diana gave you a greeting. He said sorry I couldn't attend." Tio's words made Seno look rough at him.

"I don't think I'll see it." Arisa said disappointed.

"Is the gift I gave you made by Diana's sister?" Raisa asked curiously.

"Yes that's how it is." Tio replied stiffly with a clumsy smile and scratched his head incoherently. "You don't like it?" Tio asked suddenly.

"Rais likes. But can Rais wear it later when Diana's brother and sister get married?" Raisa asked doubtfully and slightly turned her face away.

"When Seno gets married, please Rais. or when you're dating Fariz, it's okay." Tio's ejek again made Seno stare intently at him.

"How about dating me." An unfamiliar voice sounded surprisingly in the corner of the room. Everyone looked towards him who looked relaxed and enjoyed the chat of the very pleasant host. Everyone stared fixedly and his mind wondered since when he had been there. Fariz clenched his hands with a sharp gaze that seemed to pierce Fabio's black bead.

"Take it easy on yourself Fariz." Said the father to his son in a soft tone. Fariz let out a rough sigh and turned his face away.

Fabio smiled sweetly as he walked over to Raisa and grabbed her hand and looked at her with warmth. Raisa's body suddenly trembled. It felt like he was in front of a beast that was ready to pounce on him.

"Why are you shaking, baby? Are you nervous about dealing with me?" Raisa instantly lowered her face and did not answer Fabio's question. He was too afraid to return Fabio's gaze as if pressing him.

"Take it off." Firmly Tio grabbed Fabio's hand.

"Eh?..." Fabio grinned and returned Tio's gaze by throwing his sneaky smile.

"Say let go.!" Firmly Tio again squealed his ears. "Keep your hand away from my sister." Continue with a loud voice. Fariz was about to intervene when Fabio never let go of his grasp from Raisa's hands. But Rayyan acted faster and immediately Fabio's grip was broken by force.

Oma was stunned to see Rayyan's caring attitude towards Raisa. He thought Rayyan did like Raisa but was hindered by Arisa who is now Rayyan's lover. Oma thought that Rayyan said she loved Arisa because their relationship was already spread in the public.

"Is this an opportunity?" Inner Oma smiled faintly staring at Rayyan's gaze at Fabio.

Raisa was moaning in pain because of her painful hand. A red bruise is seen on Raisa's wrist which is pure white. Arisa took Raisa's hand and blew it carefully. Arisa turned around and walked quickly towards Fabio then 'plak' her eyes flushed red with anger looking at Fabio. Fabio's face slammed slightly due to Arisa's hard slap. It felt like it was just a little boy's slap for Fabio. Arisa held the heat on her reddened hand.

"Why did you slap me sister-in-law?" Fabio asked and raised his hand to gently grab Arisa's face. But again Rayyan held Fabio's hand which was a few centimeters away touched Arisa's face. And immediately the look on Oma's face that was still listening to the incident in front of him turned into a spark.

"They are similar, but why do I feel unable to accept his presence. What a difference it is from the two of them. Patience Galuh. You just wait for Aray to graduate, after which Aray will keep his promise." Oma's mind again forced her smile.

"Why do you hate me?" Syndir Fabio released his hand violently from Rayyan's grasp.

"Not stopped it. What the hell are you doing? Don't be embarrassed." Said Fabian who was out of patience to respond to his brother.

"What shame? I just want to say goodbye to my future wife." Fabio replied casually as if he had deliberately said that in front of Fariz and Rayyan.

"Waw. You're great Rayyan. Are you going to marry both?" Fabio's sneaky grin is again thrown at Rayyan.

"Fabio. Raisa needs to rest. I hope you're not bothering Raisa for now." Yugito's words made Fabio speechless. Fabio smiled and stepped towards the door.

"Alright Om. I'm going home. And Raisa, I hope that when I get back, you and her have nothing to do." Fabio's words stopped and pointed at Fariz with his eyelids, and again passed through the main door that was still wide open.

Raisa's heart was beating so hard that it was heard by herself. Fear, panic, curiosity, and worry mixed into one. That feeling was felt by Yugito at this time. Now Raisa is in something dangerous.

Raisa collapses instantly after Fabio's back disappears behind the door. Everyone grabbed Raisa in panic. Fariz quickly brought Raisa up to Tio's room. It appears that Oma is reaching for Raisa's hand with a contrived cry.

"I just realized, Dimas didn't come. Is he busy?" Arisa's mumbling suddenly remembered the former sister-in-law's candidate. Arisa walks out of the room and calls Dimas but gets no answer.

"yes too. It's getting late. Maybe Dimas's asleep." He muttered again with anxiety.

"Risa... Who are you calling?" Rayyan asked who was approaching Arisa in the living room.

"It-it's... Dim-Dimas." Answer doubtful.

"What's he saying?" Ask Rayyan again.

"He's not angry?" Inner Arisa stared in wonder at Rayyan.

"What say? Hey I asked you, baby." Rayyan repeated the question as she pinched Arisa's nose in a fit of anxiety.

"Aww is sick Aray.." Arisa's whining grabbed her flushed nose.

"Why dream?" Ask Rayyan again.

"Dimas didn't pick up his call."

"Ohhhh, that's it..." Rayyan nodded her head in understanding, then turned to look at Tio's room which was now filled with people.

"Is it because she's Risa's sister I'm worried about her now?" Rayyan muttered looking fixedly at Raisa's face that was slightly visible to her.

"Aray.." said Arisa disperse her reverie. Rayyan turned to Arisa instantly with a smile.

"What dear?" Her question stroked Arisa's cheek gently.

"You're worried about Rais?" Asked Arisa still in a soft tone.

"Little bit. Why?" Rayyan turned back to look at Raisa who was still asleep.

"What's wrong." replied Arisa was still shriveled. At that instant Rayyan patted her forehead hard and then turned to Arisa.

"I don't like it. Really honey. I'm just a little worried." Rayyan said with a slightly high tone making those who heard him immediately turn to him.

"Ehh.. what?" Arisa suddenly misbehaved with Rayyan's sudden speech.

"But I didn't mean to make you jealous." Rayyan said in the same tone.

"Is he crazy? Why is he talking so loudly?" Arisa muttered with a panicked look on her face. Instantly his face flushed red because Rayyan was constantly reassuring him and his face was getting closer. Arisa turned her face then looked wide at the sharp Oma looking at her. Visible line of his face that implied a sense of dislike to see his closeness with Rayyan. Although Oma knows Rayyan is Arisa's current boyfriend. Arisa shifted away from Rayyan nervously.

"Arn." Call Oma from the living room. Where there are only Oma, Sonya and Seina.

"What's Oma?" Rayyan asked and did not realize that Oma was banning him from being close to Arisa indirectly.

"Someone wants Oma to talk about. But after Raisa's conscious." Oma threw a smile and turned to Sonya who looked tense.

"Why?" Rayyan asked with a curious face.

In the living room, Tio approached Arisa who was still worried about Raisa.

"Rais it's okay. You just sleep." Tio grabbed Arisa's head and ruffled her hair.

"But brother.. I..."

"So I said sleep!" Firmly Tio interrupted before Arisa finished her speech. With heavy steps, Arisa half ran towards her room. His chest was a little tight from being too tired to run. Until his eyes were a little blurred.

"Ishhh no longer.." he muttered withstanding his fading consciousness.
