"Mama didn't think you'd be such a rude and arrogant kid like this, Jen!" Thought to throw Jen's body at once, the little body of the child he had always embraced lovingly, now with his own hands and mouth should he cassari.
"Why, Jen? Why don't you change, huh? Mama thought you could demean your harsh and rude nature, after the last incident, but you're still like this!" Kira was still poring over the face of her daughter who was arrogantly unwilling to return her gaze. Jen cocked her hands with a sharp expression refusing to look at her mother.
Silent again absorbing all the sounds, Kira waits for Jen's reaction, hoping her daughter will say something or at least realize her actions are wrong.
"Jen ... Mama is talking to you! Look at mama, Jen!" Kira confirms her voice.
Jen did what her mother asked, she looked at her mother bravely, because she felt that what she had done was right. However, seeing the reaction of his mother who was already very angry, he suspected that his mother would defend Ranu. Of course, because Ranu is everything in his mama's eyes.
"Why did you slap Ranu, Jen? Can't all be talked about well? You guys are brothers—"
"Me and her are just half-siblings, Ma .. She's papa's biological child and I'm just a parasite on this family. I'm never right even if I do what I think is right. And surely mama will only defend Ranu without asking why I did that!"
"Jen ... not like that, Son ... Mama just asked you to smooth your behavior, you're an adult and you should know more about how to behave, honey."
Jen laughs grimly, "I'm not as mature as Ranu, Ma. I'm spoiled and selfish, but I don't flirt with other guys like Ranu!"
"What do you mean, Jen?" Kira squinted when Jen said that. He did not expect Jen to make such serious accusations to his sister.
"Here you go, Mama will definitely not believe me, because I am not the proud child of Mama. And I'm not Papa's son."
"Jen! Take care of your words, yes .. all this time papa never differentiates you with Ranu. Even you are more loved than Ranu who is his biological child. Don't you feel that, huh? But once your mouth accuses papa of favoritism!"
"But the truth is, isn't it, Ma .. Everyone always takes Ranu's side, loves Ranu, prides Ranu, but not me, right? What is his name if not for favoritism? I'm wrong a little bit that you guys always corner me!"
Kira was really inflamed hearing Jen's words. "Good, Jen! Mama will show you how kindly that is. From this moment on, my mother pulled what I had given her. All, without exception! Enjoy life the way you are proud of it!"
"Take everything, Ma ... take it! I don't need your help!" Jen threw out her face. He was so hurt, in this house no one believed him. Nothing, nobody nobody.
Jen ran away from her mother's room with mixed feelings. I don't know, he's hurt, but what, he doesn't know. Surely he was very disappointed.
Darren was in the room when the door slammed hard and rough. Surprised to find that Jen entered with a red face and teary eyes, one of her hands was busy wiping away the tears.
"Jen, why? What's up?" Darren panics and catches his wife in the arms. It was pretty obvious to her that Jen was hurt. Yes, he knew this woman would only cry when she could no longer speak as she was drained by the scratches of the wounds.
"We're leaving, Ren .. Get me out of here! This is no longer my place!" His rubbing on Darren's chest, he immediately raised his face, meeting a pair of questionable-looking eyes, but his shade always made Jen calm again.
Darren nodded, "OK, we're going home now. You need to stop crying!" Her request was gentle as she helped the obedient Jen control her cries by wiping away her tears.
"Wear a jacket, don't get cold." Again, Jen is like a very sweet cat. He nodded and obediently took out a sweater from his closet. Then he pulled out a bigger suitcase, to carry his belongings more.
"We're just going home, not moving, Jen!" Darren was astonished, he thought melsti had happened to Jen so much that he was like a scruffy when lowering his clothes.
"I'm not going back to this house again, Ren. There's no place for me anymore." He continued to pack his belongings, then closed the rough suitcase and pulled it. "Come ...!"
Darren packed his breath in a deep sigh. Something must have happened despite what it was and it made Jen's ego pinch. He combined steps, then walked with Jen after taking over the huge and heavy suitcase into his power. Traversing space by space quietly and deserted until arriving at the minibus that looks the most worn and cheap among the rows of luxury cars in the garage Harris Dirgantara.
"Wait here, I'll say goodbye to you!" He knew Jen would not say goodbye, so he chose to expend more energy to return home, rather than persuade Jen to confess.
Jen didn't answer in the seatbelt she had Darren attached to her. He glanced at it, then turned and looked down.

"Wrong, yes, Pa .. if I have feelings for Darren's brother?" In contrast to the hot and fierce upper room, in Harris's workroom the atmosphere was precisely silent, only Harris was compressing Ranu's red cheeks. He just silently watched Ranu who was busy thinking.
"Mistake ..," Harris replied lightly so as to make his daughter turn her head and almost shed tears. The shaking eyes seemed to ask and judge that Harris was too cruel. And frankly.
Harris took a comfortable position so that he and Ranu could face each other. Don't forget he's offering what still needs treatment on Jen's red-handed scar. Ranu shook his head, something more hurtful than that, which was his papa's statement blaming his attitude.
"Of course Ranu's feelings for Darren at this time are wrong, because he has become your brother's husband, Brother Jen. Ranu must be able to accept that and replace love as a man and woman with love from sister to brother."
"But, Pa. .. they were only married for one year, Dinka heard, if Jen's sister was using Darren's brother alone."
"That's just bullshit, Ran .. You heard yourself, didn't Darren himself say that they were in touch with you?"
"Ranu, honey isn't the same Jen?" Harris smiles at the silence of her daughter, she eases Ranu's turmoil with a gentle rub in Ranu's hair. She understands Ranu is heartbroken and she believes Jen is jealous to see the closeness of her husband and Ranu.
Ranu became increasingly silent. Yeah, she's a pity for her brother. Without him, Ranu would not be able to get through his day. Because his weight used to be enough to make him inferior until he was bullied, and only Jen who always entertained him. However, when his own feelings were hurt, he did not want to give up. Can it?
"Big Ranu is the same sister Jen, a lot of loh, which sister Jen did to Ranu. Ranu time does not remember? Believe me the same papa, later everything will be fine after, well .. just a little time Ranu endure pain. Papa used to be often hurt like Ranu. But look, papa was even met with your mama and your brothers, filling your days so colorful. Said the old man, the wound teaches you to use logic. Not just the heart."
Ranu's eyes again raised tears. He understood what his father meant. You are sacrificing, including feelings. He could not have taken what belonged to his own brother. It means he has to pull over.
"Papa's son must be strong, it's just like in an ant bite."
Elephant ants.
"The pain is not worth the happiness of being able to let it go. Come on, honey, challenge yourself! You can do it!"
"Instead of being injected?" Ranu pouted furiously and laid himself on his papa's chest.
"Slightly more pain than in the injection, Ran .. You are strong, yes. Forgive me for asking you like this, but it will be a sin if we do them unfair." Harris peeped his daughter's head repeatedly. He regretted sacrificing the feelings of his son for the sake of another child. But the belief that Ranu is young and the road is still long, it would be better to use that time to learn, making him decide this.
Everything is well organized and only good will happen.
"The old country, where's Pa?"
"So, papa has never come to him." Harris tightened his embrace, knowing his daughter was smiling.
***
Darren only arrived at the door when Ranu came out of his papa's study. He returned to being cynical and haughty to Darren. He even passed by without greeting his brother-in-law.
Darren could only sigh, this sesorean he was made claustrophobic by the crush of uncomfortable feelings. What's up with them? Though not long ago Ranu smiled cheerfully when Darren cleaned Ranu's hair full of flower powder and splashes of water. Ranu was definitely just back from the backyard where various colorful ornamental flowers grow.
Darren twisted his body, disconnecting his gaze from Ranu who kept passing away from him.
"I like you, Brother!"
Darren was choking and instantly widened his originally unfocused eyes. He slowly returned to face Ranu who was staring at him stiffly.
"Is that enough to tell Jen your true feelings?"
He saw Ranu's knuckles clenched and tense. The girl gathered all the courage to tell him that.
Is this the cause of the dilemma between them?
Darren took a breath and smiled. "I like you ...."
