The dining room was quiet. There was not the slightest conversation between grandfather and his grandson. Only the clanking of spoons and plates sounded were clashing.
Mouza could only stare one by one at the three men before him. Not without reason the atmosphere felt quiet. All that Keanu just taught Alan. How not to get beat up if Keanu gets a warning letter from campus because it's been almost two weeks Alan skipped for no reason. Moreover, he also got a complaint from Angga, if Alan always spent his time to get drunk in the basecamp.
The old man as an enforcer of justice since just now only let out a heavy sigh. He did not know how to straighten out the path of his youngest grandson who had almost gone mad because of love. In fact, Wijaya's grandfather also could not persuade Azra to return to Alan, because the woman had grown tired of fighting.
"If you want to get Azra's heart, this isn't how it works, Lan! Show that you really love him. Not just a word, but also an action. That woman needs proof, not a promise!" said Grandpa Wijaya who was tired of the atmosphere of silence.
Alan who got input from the Grandfather just fell silent without wanting to answer, because he himself did not know what he had to do to be able to get Azra's heart back. Even after his meeting at the cafe back then, Alan traces Azra again.
"If you only rely on your selfishness, then whenever and with anyone you are in a relationship, you will never be able to get a happiness. The point is not prestige to admit a feeling, if it is lost from the grasp of the hand, pain is not it?" continue the Grandpa again.
"Lan, are you horrifying?! Grandpa, you're talking to me!" jolt Mouza while kicking Alan's leg. This time the kick was on target and did not hit Grandpa's leg.
Alan's eyes only glared at Mouza while enduring the pain.
"Yes, I'm horrified! What do I want to answer?" ketas Alan's.
Mouza could only snort violently with Alan's indifference. As a friend and sister-in-law, Mouza wants to help Alan out of his problems. Although this was not the first time Alan was heartbroken, but this time Alan completely lost his direction and purpose. It was all because of his love for Azra.
"You should think, how to take Azra's heart, not even self-destruct. In this way, Azra is sick of seeing you. I often skip college, drunk is not clear! Although you have some rights in the company, but if you like this I will not give you the rights, because your nature does not match the written conditions!" timpal Keanu's.
"For this time, Grandpa agreed with Keanu. Lan, you should learn from your past mistakes. Have you never failed in a relationship? Now you want to fail again? If there is a second chance, there will be no third chance. If you really love Azra, go after her, even if you have to run barefoot! Do not let there be another shoulder where he leaned," continued his grandfather.
In silence, Alan saw one by one the faces of the three people who were in front of him. Both of them cornered him.
"Too late! Azra's already suing for divorce!" alan said, who then chose to leave the dining table.
The three people who had just judged him exchanged glances with wide-spherical eyes. They were both shocked by Alan's shocking confession. Even important news like this, Wijaya's grandfather's men did not report to him.
"So what does that mean they're divorced?" asked Grandpa Wijaya in surprise.
"Oza doesn't know, Cake." Mouza tapped her shoulders.
Now the eyes of Grandpa Wijaya and Mouza are simultaneously staring at Keanu. "I'm busy at the office. Don't ask me, because I don't know anything" Keanu said.

In the silence of the night, Alan was always restless and unable to sleep in his room. That's why he often sleeps in Keanu's basecamp to ward off anxiety.
"Why Zra, why are you lying to me? You said you wanted to melt my heart, but what? You're even blushing when I'm spitting up." Azra ruffled her hair rough.
For the umpteenth night, Alan wouldn't sleep in his room. All because of the shadow of Azra that is still stored in it. Because Alan was not allowed to roam, he decided to sleep in the guest room.
"Zra, where exactly are you, anyway? Please, just give me one more chance. I want to fix the debris that has collapsed" Alan said, wiping the phone screen, where a picture of him and Azra was made into wallpaper.
"Zra, how long are you going to punish me like this? I know that you love me. Zra, please, come back!"

In a room that was not too big, Azra was about to close her eyes. After a long day of work, his body felt very tired. He wants to fall asleep, but there is a lot of drama that he has to go through throughout the day.
Although Wijaya's grandfather refused when Azra took the ATM card, it does not mean that Azra was tempted to use the contents in the ATM gift from Wijaya's grandfather. Even Alan's ATM is still in his hands. Just like Grandpa, Alan also refused when Azra wanted to return the ATM.
Just wanted to close her eyes, Azra had to go to the bathroom again because her stomach was constantly nauseous.
"It seems I have to seek treatment to find out what disease is lodging in my body. There's no way I catch a cold every day" Azra said as she grew tired of going in and out of the bathroom.
It has been a week that he feels irregular nausea. Sometimes morning, sometimes night, sometimes fitting want to eat suddenly also maul. However, because he was required to work, he also tried to ignore his nausea.
"I think I should use that money for treatment. There's no way I'm borrowing any more, while the debt I just owed yesterday hasn't been paid." Azra monologues while looking at herself in the reflection of the glass in the bathroom.
"However, the more chubby these cheeks become. Though rarely eat," murmured Azra.
Because he did not want to dissolve in his thinking, he also chose to close his eyes. Wishing tonight he'd have a good dream. However, before Azra closed her eyes, a message notification entered her phone. A message from Mouza. Azra said never to contact her again, but almost every day Mouza sends a message, even though it is always ignored.
This time instead Mouza sent a photo without description, which in the photo shows the battered face of Alan.
Azra waited a long time for another explanation from Mouza, but there seemed to be no evidence.
"Gosh, this is Alan's face why is it battered like this? Did he just fight? Or just got a sting?" Azra continued muttering as she looked at the photo of Alan on her phone.
Azra suddenly felt very worried about Alan. But, because of his disappointment is too high, Azra immediately dismissed his feelings and threw away his love for Alan. Whatever happened to Alan, it's none of his business anymore.
