"Hour 12, Bun. Sleep in the room Abang," he said back to glance at Ara to make sure the girl was increasingly feeling restless.
Ara remained lowered, her hands sweating. He repeatedly bit his upper lip and lower lip alternately threw out the nervousness in him.
"Why the hell, honey?" ask Earth who is aware of the change in Ara's attitude.
"Why, Pil?" Aro deliberately crouched down in front of Ara. He raised his body so that his lips could freely whisper to Ara's ears wrapped in a light blue hijab.
"Gue must be happy that you're really getting out of here." A slow, smooth whisper but stabs into the heart.
Aro smirked ignorantly, he stood up again and briefly rubbed the tops of Ara's head. Akash, Bumi and Akhza look at each other. They were worried that Aro was doing something that frightened Ara.
"Cock on a cud?" ask Aro astonishment.
"Udah, disperse ... disperse ...." Akash immediately embraces Akhza's shoulder to leave the kitchen. Reduce the tension. Earth does the same thing, she's busy opening the fridge to find inspiration will make breakfast what this morning?
Meanwhile Ara was still pensive in her seat. Together with Aro who was still standing beside him. Aro felt that Ara had betrayed her mother's trust by presumptuously putting feelings on her own brother.
"When are you going?" Aro asked as he pulled one of the chairs for her to sit on.
"After UN, Mas," Ara's promise made Aro smile happily.
"Gue keeps your promise, if you lie, bear the consequences!" threatening Aro makes Ara bergidig. Then Aro moved, his ignorant hand patted Ara's cheek that could no longer bear to keep tightness in her chest.
Without saying goodbye to Earth, the girl ran towards her room. He took off his hijab with a rough movement and then dropped himself on a mattress whose bed sheet he had not finished. There Ara was crying. Let the tightness in his chest crammed out because it was stuck from earlier.
Ara wouldn't have told her mother. Although, she knew very well how much she had loved him all along. But, for the sake of Akhza and Aro's relationship to improve, Ara will do it. That way maybe Aro can turn out to be good to him. If you miss your mother, she can come to visit. So thought Ara.

Yesterday it was raining so hard, Ara forgot not to lift her shoes and Aro shoes that were dried in the backyard. Lucky today is still Sunday, so there is still a chance to sunbathe those shoes.
In the backyard, Ara sat with Vanya, the mother who had just arrived a few hours ago. Vanya comes carrying some of the best pieces of gamis along with her hijab. He also bought a lot of snacks for Ara.
"Where do you want to go to school?" ask Vanya while the two are enjoying time together.
"Not yet to know, Mi, not yet thought," said Ara patted the back of her hand that had just been infested by mosquitoes.
"There are a lot of mosquitoes here?" Vanya also got an attack from a small creature with an unpleasant voice.
"Sometimes. Mommy hasn't had a bath, has she?" seloroh Ara on her mother who was immediately given tickling in her stomach by Vanya.
"Udah, Mi, already ...." Ara begged to be released.
"Well, if you already know where to go to High School, Mami" Pinta Vanya stroked her little cheek.
"Later I said first to the mother, I was told Mami," said Ara made the look on Vanya's face suddenly turned sad. In fact, his daughter is more concerned with the Earth. But, Vanya soon realized, however she had time to throw Ara. Now, it is natural that Ara prioritizes the Earth.
Vanya nodded, "Yes, Mami knows too. Mother deserves affection from you" he added with teary eyes.
"Mommy, don't be sad. I love Mami too." Ara hugged her mom's shoulder from the side.
The earth was indeed lovingly caring for and raising Ara. Salasika Arabella, grew up to be a tough and loving girl. Always be gentle on everything including animals. Only one person in the world doesn't like him, Aro.
The Earth turns out to notice the interaction of Vanya and Ara. There is a fear of the Earth. He was afraid that Ara would be invited by Vanya to stay with him. Of course, if all that happened, he would be devastated.
Just imagine it feels so painful. The earth squeezes his chest. The behavior of the Earth also did not escape from Akash's observation.
"Why, Honey?" Akash came to her while hugging her from behind. It seems like just yesterday the two moved into this house. The kids are now teenagers. The house feels lonely if one of the four hearts is not at home.
"You're jealous to see Ara with Vanya?" guess Akash read the sadness on his wife's face.
Earth nodded. He was jealous of Vanya. The earth stepped from where it stood so that it would no longer see the friendly scenes of Vanya and Ara. Healing wounds from pain is to stay away from the source.
Earth followed Akash walking towards the television room. But not to watch, just sitting there leaning back that feels very heavy like just carrying a sack of rice.
"Don't think too much about things that aren't necessarily true." Akas whispered in his wife's ear that was covered in a floral green hijab.
"Sister, do not speak whisper too," protested the Earth as she rubbed her ears. "It doesn't feel good either," added Bumi as she pointed with her chin at Akhza and Atar who were walking towards them.
"Bun, is Aunt Vanya still there?" ask Akhza.
"Still, Bang. Why why?" The earth asked back to make Akhza scratch his nape that did not itch.
"The same thing is true .... " Akhza's hand reflexes smothered Atar's mouth which almost said that Ara and Akhza were dating.
Fortunately, this did not make Earth and Akash prolong the problem. Both of them just considered jokes. Before long, Vanya and Ara entered and joined for a while because they had to go home soon.
Akhza accompanied by Ara drove Vanya to the parking lot. After being confirmed that Vanya's car is missing from their reach, Akhza invites Ara to chat for a while.
"Ra, why didn't you answer my letter anyway?" akhza's protest made Ara recall her stupidity for thinking Aro was Akhza.
"I'm actually, Bang, I'm afraid of my father and mother." Ara gave a reason. To be honest, he did not want to hurt his brother.
"We were kids anyway, Bang. Still in 9th grade." Obviously Ara made Akhza stumble in annoyance.
"So you refuse?" todong Akhza's.
"Sorry, Bang. But, we will hurt your father and mother if they violate the rules they have made," said Ara, her voice rising.
"Ok, but, I want you to wait for me" said Akhza made Ara reluctant to answer.
Whatever happens tomorrow, we cannot know. Just live today as best we can. Everything we want, if not our destiny line, will not come as hard as we try
