"Hi Cel? Where has he been all day? I told Jack to pick you up this morning?" greet Elfa as soon as they reach the TV room.

"Eh anu Elf... Jack asked to take the road around the city of Jakarta. So I take him to monas" Celine replied, just trying to be normal.

"Halaaaah Jack Sparrow" said Elfa.

Jack appeared from behind.

"So what donk did you get in monas?" ask Elfa.

"Heart. eh I mean the heart of Jakarta, right? Celine said at the top of the peak there was a layer of gold. Great for Indonesia. "praise Jack.

Huuuffff. Inner Celine. Celine was actually very tense.

This is how Shaby and Ryntia felt when they were in a relationship with Backstreet. Elfa and Fathir are creepy when they are bullying. But I'm the hanger of a gini.. Inner Celine.

"Have you eaten yet?" ask Ethan.

"I've cooked the same with Celine. I was invited to walk - the streets of the city of Jakarta, so Celine was starving" replied Jack.

"Where to eat?" elfa Search.

"EIC Restaurant" Celine replied.

"Jetski Cafe" replied Jack.

"Cock different - different anyway. Which one is right?" ask Elfa.

"Two - both are right, I had lunch at EIC Restaurant. Celine masakin I'm Lancashire Hotpot. The night just ate at the Jetski Cafe" replied Jack casually.

"Hotpot Lancashire?" ethan was surprised.

"Yes, Celine cooked really good, I got moved" replied Jack.

"Jack isn't that food...?" ethan is confused.

Jack smiled at Ethan.

"Taste exactly Mommy Than's cooking, it's so good that I get moved when I eat Lancashire Hotpot" Jack said.

Ethan was still silent in surprise.

"I went to the room first Elf, Than. Want to take a shower, it's been sultry all day outside" said Celine.

"Then I'm the same. I'm gonna take a shower and get changed" Jack said.

"Yes" replied Elfa.

Jack and Celine leave behind Elfa and Ethan who stare at them from a distance. Nothing is different, they look like normal.

Celine goes up to her room upstairs and Jack goes into her and Ethan's room downstairs.

Elfa watched Ethan who was silent as she continued to stare at Jack leaving.

"You why Than? It was so bad Jack. Like someone you haven't seen for a long time, sad that's your look?" ask Elfa curiously.

"Tau is a typical cuisine in England. I used to cook it in London" replied Elfa.

Ethan sat on the sofa and followed Elfa, who was sitting next to him. Elfa was still curious about what Ethan was thinking.

"It was Jack's favorite meal as a child, but after Mommy and Daddy died he never ate it" Ethan said.

"Lho why?" ask Elfa curiously.

"Because the food reminded him of the death of Mommy and Daddy. At the beginning he lived in our house. Mommy used to cook that meal. Jack never ate it. Once Mommy forced Jack to eat at least a little of Mommy's food, Jack immediately left the dining table and ran back to his room. I was told by Daddy to call Jack back to the dinner table but I was surprised to see Jack sitting on the floor and hiding his face between his legs. Jack was crying very hard at the time. It was a very sad cry, I almost cried seeing it like that. Never have I seen Jack that sad. Jack who is usually always cheerful and laughing suddenly cried sobbing in his room while saying. I'm sorry Mommy.I'm sorry Daddy... Had I not asked Mommy to cook the Lancashire Hotpot, you would not have come late to Mr.'s party. Mohammeds. You're not going to drive at high speed and you're in an accident" Ethan said sadly.

Without feeling a tear Elfa trickles to hear Ethan's story about the little Jack.

"Oh yes Tuhaaan" said Elfa, covering her mouth with both hands.

"He kept saying those words over and over again while crying sobbing. That's where I found out what happened at Jack's house before Daddy and Mommy went to my house and before Mommy and Daddy had the accident that resulted in their deaths. It was also the reason that answered our question all along why Jack never wanted to eat the Lancashire Hotpot when the food was so good. Turns out that's the biggest reason behind Jack's unwillingness to eat that food" Ethan continued.

"Jack must have been sad when he was treated to the food by Celine. Yes Tuhaaan Celiiiiine.what did you do to Jack" welcome Elfa.

"Celine is not wrong Elf, she does not know that Jack has a big secret about food called Lancashire Hotpot. From the words of Jack earlier it seems Jack ate the food that Celine cooked earlier. I don't know what happened to Jack at the time" Ethan rubbed his face with his two steps.

He also felt sad because he saw and knew his brother and his only friend must be sad.

"Since that incident, I told Mommy everything about why Jack refused to eat the food. And from that moment on Mommy never cooked that meal again. If we wanted to eat that food we would have eaten outside or when Jack was not home. We don't want Jack to come back sad because he is reminded of the death of Mommy and Daddy" Ethan said.

Elfa exhaled violently and then took a deep breath. Releasing the burden that was pressing on his heart made his chest ache.

"Surely she felt guilty the night of her Mommy and Daddy accident. He was just ten years old at the time, right?" ask Elfa.

Ethan nodded his head and looked at Elfa wistfully.

"O Lord Jaaaack, if only I had experienced it, I would not have been as strong as Jack. Oooh.. pity your fate Jaaack" said Elfa while crying.

Ethan gently stroked Elfa's head and tried to calm Elfa down.

"Already Elf. already.. later the others on see. They think you're crying because we're fighting" Ethan says, trying to calm Elfa down.

"But I'm still sad to remember little Jack" replied Elfa.

"It's been. it's been a long time. I'm sure Jack can handle it now. You saw Jack's face wasn't sad, right? He must be stronger now to face the bitter reality first. Jack has been able to accept the death of Mommy and Daddy sincerely, he has been able to accept the reality and accept his destiny" said Ethan.

"I hope Jack can get his happiness and I hope Celine is the one. I hope Celine can make Jack happy" Elfa said.

"Hopefully. Aamiin O Allah. "reply Ethan.
