For sitting in his great chair while observing some documents in his hand. He did not understand his father's mind. But, he also did not care about the decision his father took. All he has to do now is think about how to take care of his mother's company that his father gave him last night.
Long struggling with his thoughts, suddenly the door of his room opened. Because he ignored and continued to focus on the documents in his hands. He knew who was visiting him. If not his best friend Edo, who else. No one would dare to meet him if it was not an office affair.
"Hi boss. How was last night, all right?"
Because he did not answer, he just stared for a while and refocused on the document.
"You were invisible after meeting me last night. What are you doing?" Edo asked by raising his eyebrows, trying to tease Gara.
"Silence Edo!" reply Gara still focused on his documents.
"I was just wondering, which room did you sleep in last night? Looks like you're so good that your father has to wait."
Because of the annoyance in the heart. Perhaps by answering his question, the man would leave immediately.
"In room 005. Now get the fuck out of here!"
Instead of leaving, Edo was getting closer to Gara. His eyes were round, as if he could not believe Gara's answer.
"You're seriously Gar?"
Because he shifted his attention and stared intently at Edo. While being stared at, increasingly curious about the truth of Gara's speech.
Because he released the documents he held, and leaned his body on the back of the chair. "What do you want?" tanya Gara began to care with her best friend.
"I don't want anything. I just want to know, if you're really in that room, are you doing something to that girl?"
Hearing Edo's words about the girl, Gara again remembered the girl last night, who disappeared somewhere after he met his father. But after that, Gara regained his senses and stared intently at Edo.
"Say! What did you do to that girl? Did you give him that fucking stimulant, huh?" gara shouted while gripping the collar of the shirt Edo was wearing.
Imagining Edo's actions on the girl just made his emotions rise.
"Yes, I did it. But.." Edo had not yet finished his words, his body had staggered to the side due to Gara's punch.
Edo got up and rubbed the corner of his bloody lips. "What are you doing?" edo did not accept.
Because I didn't answer. He again grabbed the collar of Edo's shirt. Even Edo's shirts and suits are out of order.
"What am I doing, huh? You ask what I'm doing? Didn't you think before you did? Because of you, I made him suffer. I took his honor. I took away her chastity." Shouted Gara right in Edo's face.
Edo was astonished, as long as he was friendly with Gara, this was the first time Gara was furious at him. Edo grabbed Gara's hand and took it off the shirt he was wearing.
"I'm sorry. I was really khilaf last night. I'll try to find it for you."
"Go! Find him and bring him to me."
"alright. But remember, eliminate your demon side, lest he be afraid and run away." said Edo, trying to melt the atmosphere and then just waver. There really is no fear at all.

Since the incident that night, Alula has not returned home for almost three days. I don't know, he felt so ashamed and guilty to go back home.
The rain is falling more and more. With a gontai step Alula headed home and knocked on the door. Three knocks, the door opened and showed the face of her sister, Elisha.
"When are you home?" elisa said with a mocking smile.
Alula didn't answer. He just barged in without answering anything. "God! You hear me not talking, Lula?" elisha shouted, but he was ignored. He doesn't care about all his brother's babbling or whoever it is. Clearly, he wanted to go to the room immediately, hiding himself.
Hearing the news that Alula has returned, Zarfan Alula's father, immediately meets his daughter.
"Where have you been these three days, son? I'm worried about you." The soft voice made Alula immediately wipe away her tears and turn her head. A sincere smile emanated from his face. The girl hugged the father and took him to sit down.
"Lula's not going anywhere. Lula just helped mommy. Lula's cell phone, Lula matiin let no one disturb Lula's time with the children's home." Lula's alibi, revealed his fake smile that looked so sincere in his Father's eyes.
Zarfan smiled and gently rubbed his daughter's head. "Thank God. I think nothing happened to you. Good thing Elisa's preventing me from reporting to the police."
"O yes son, two days ago someone came looking for you. But they came back after knowing you weren't home." Reciprocity.
Alula frowned in wonder and thought hard. He had no problems other than the incident that night. It can't be Rendra or his best friend, Uli. If it was them, why didn't his father recognize them.
"Have, no need to think. If they really want to see you, they'll come back" his father said.
After the long chat, Zarfan left Alula, returning to his room. While Alula, she tried to close her eyes, trying to forget everything that happened to her.
***
Two months passed. Alula has finished her schooling, just enrolled in college and looking for a side job.
The man her father told her the other day never came to see her again. He does not bother and focus on his goal.
They ate together this morning. His relationship with Elisha and his mother is still the same, less good. And Elisha and Rendra's relationship, looks more and more intimate. There was a speck of pain in Alula's heart, yet she tried to accept.
"Here son, I'll get you your favorite buttered chicken" said Mr. Zarfan, transferring the buttered chicken to Alula's plate.
Instead of being happy, Alula's reaction made the three pairs of eyes stare in wonder. Alula felt a very severe nausea. Without a second thought, the girl ran to the toilet near the kitchen and spilled her stomach there.
"Lula! Lula! Open the door, this is Mom." call Miss Disa, banging on the toilet door.
With a limp body and a pale-looking face, Alula opened the door and stood right in front of her Mother and Elisha.
"Why are you vomiting? What my cooking is not... Are you pregnant?" Miss Disa paused her words, then strangled her last sentence.
Elisa and Alula were just as shocked to hear the presumption of Miss Disa.
"When did you stop coming to the moon?" miss Disa's question made Alula aware of her daydream.
"Dat... is the moon coming? Last month, and my ak–aku hasn't come this month. Tang–the date is past."
Without thinking, Miss Disa pulled Alula's hand and dragged her to the living room, where Zarfan was already there.
"What is this mom?" ask Mr. Zarfan, ignored just like that by Miss Disa.
"Elisa, buy me a tespack!" without saying much, Elisha immediately drove his car to the pharmacy.
"Mom, what's going on?"
"Dad doesn't have to interfere! Just shut up and see the results later." replied Miss Disa, staring intently at Alula.
It didn't take long, Elisa came back with a tespack in her hands. Miss Disa pulled Alula back to the toilet, on Elisha's ekori.
Alula's face turned pale knowing the test results. Two lines that suggest the truth of his mother's conjecture. Her tears are back. I don't know what to explain to her mom and dad.
With trembling hands, Alula handed the bag to her mother. Before long, Alula's face was thrown to the left because of her mother's slap.
"Basic child does not know himself. Did I tell you to sell your honor? Huh uh?" furious Bu Disa, pulling rough Alula's hand.
"I thought you were a plain girl. Apparently, you're cheaper than an ******." Elisha's lips continue to follow Alula and her mother.
Mr. Zarfan who saw Alula pulled rough by his wife also stood up. He was confused as to why his wife looked so cruel to Alula.
"What is this really about?"
"Dad want to know? This is what my favorite son did." Furious Bu Disa, giving a tespack to Mr. Zarfan.
Like being struck by lightning, Zarfan's body was fixated with the tool he still held. He looked up and Plaque...
One slap on Alula's cheek. The girl could only accept and cry.
"Get out of this house!" said Mr. Zarfan coldly, immediately made the three look at him.
"Dad," said Alula with tears that continued to flood, but was ignored.
Zarfan did not care and walked past them towards his room.
"Dad, sorry Lula yah!" alula shouted, making her father stop.
"Please get out of here! I don't like housekeeping with strangers."
Alula's body stiffened. His chest seemed to be crushed by a large rock, making it difficult for him to breathe. Heart's hurt. His own father kicked him out, considering himself a stranger. As the saying goes, a year's heat is wiped out by a day's rain.
Without the coercion of her Brother and Mother, Alula walks out, leaving her memorable home with the family. Hoping in your heart for Dad to call back and embrace him in a warm embrace. But it's all just his imagination. Even until he passed the fence, no one called him back

Alula had been hanging in the streets for a few days. And those few days, Alula tried to abort her womb. But his efforts were in vain. The baby he contains seems unaffected by all his efforts. And today, Alula will try again, even intending to end her life.
Alula runs slowly in the middle of the road, hoping for a car to hit her. When a car drove fast and was about to hit him, suddenly Alula's hand was pulled by someone so that the two fell to the side of the road.
"Hey, kid! What the hell are you doing? Do you want to take your own life?" ask a middle-aged woman.
"I-I don't want to live anymore. I can't bear to be hated by my family." replied Alula, still as he pleased.
The woman got up and pulled Alula towards a more comfortable place.
"Let's tell me about Mom." said the woman as they sat in the long chair of the stop.
Having an unprepared look at Alula, the mother smiled. "Already, if you are not ready to tell the story with Mom, it's okay."
Alula who felt the sincerity of the smile that Mother published, Alula also told her all the events that happened to her.
"Son, every problem has an end. Don't you need to be afraid, especially to attempt suicide? That's not good."
"But mom, Alula's family hates Alula."
The mother smiled.
"remember son! Not everyone is the same. If anyone hates you, someone loves you too."
Alula took a deep breath and exhaled. "Lula made a mistake ma'am. It ruined everything."
"Son! Every human has a mistake. Every human being has a second chance. If the second chance is not given by man, there is a second chance that God loves."
"You know why you always fail to abort your fetus?" Alula shakes.
"That's the second chance God gave me. Your family doesn't give you a second chance to fix your mistakes. But God gave it to you, in the way you take care of your children. God doesn't heed you to eliminate them, because God doesn't want you to make a mistake a second time."
Hearing him, Alula's heart fell. The mother's words completely slapped his heart. Now that he realized, he was wrong because he tried to eliminate his fetus. He promised to always take good care of his son.
"I'm sorry, son!" inner Alula while stroking her flat stomach.
From that day on, Alula began to live her life well. He was looking for enough rent for him and his son. The remaining money of his savings as well, he used to register for college. He is also looking for a side job to meet the needs of life.
Until one day, in a hospital, there was the sound of a baby crying so loud. Making tears and smiles rise together on Alula's sweaty face after giving birth to her twins.
"Mother's son, Derren Alvaro," said Alula, kissing the cheek of the child in her arms. Then, switch to the other baby in the sibling, "Mother's Son, Darrel Alvero." The invite, then kiss the cheek of the baby.
