Nearly two hours passed and they finally reached the courtyard of Ryu's residence. The security guard greeted Rangga because he already knew the young man was their young miss friend.
Rangga wakes up Rara who is asleep on the way.
"Ra, wakeup. We have arrived!"
Rara moved and opened her eyes.
"Have you arrived?" Rara looked at Rangga. Then look ahead, right.in front there is seen the main door of her brother's house. He immediately removed the seatbelt.
Rangga fixed Rara's messy hair.
"Rangga, thank you for accompanying me today" he said looking back at Rangga.
Rangga nodded with a smile.
"When you need it, I'll definitely come! Do not hesitate to contact me!" Rangga slowly rattled the top of the girl's head. He knew this girl again had a problem and was sad. And of course it needs entertainment. But unfortunately Rara did not want to share the problem with him.
Rara nodded with a smile.
"Let's get out," Rangga immediately went outside. Then open the door for Rara.
They walked to the main door that was closed.
"Ra, I'll take you to your sister, okay? I'm afraid it's been so night."
"Until here Ga, Brother Ryu must have slept. Or maybe he is continuing his work in the workspace. He won't be angry because we gave him permission. I told you earlier, Brother Ryu will not be angry as long as you do nothing bad to me!" Rara looked at Rangga's face.
Rangga smiled. He held both hands of Rara.
"There's no way I'm gonna do something that's gonna hurt your heart, and it's gonna make you hate me!" Rangga.
"I love you Ra, there's no way I'm doing anything bad to you!" he continued to gently stroke Rara's cheek.
A pair of tightly clenched hands heard his words. The red face held back anger and jealousy seeing her touch Khanza. Ryu who saw them at this time, also listened to their conversation through the CCTV camera connected to his cellphone. Not only now, but he also knew what Rangga and Rara were doing outside all day.
"You better go home. Your home must be a long way from here, too. Heart on the road. Remember, Go straight home, don't wander around anymore. Don't make your mommy anxious!" rara's Message.
"You're like my mama. Always texting me a lot when I'm out." Rangga laughed a little, Rara also joined in laughing.
Rangga was speechless looking at Rara's cheerful face like this.
"When we meet tomorrow, I want this cheerful face again. Adorned with a sweet smile and also a happy laugh" she said holding both shoulders of Rara.
Rara just nodded
"You better go home. I'm going in first!"
Rangga pulled his hand from Rara's shoulder. The door opens from the inside. Ratih.
"Night is a buk" he said.
"Good night. Thank you for bringing Miss Khanza home!" said Ratih politely.
"Yes buk, same. Excuse me first!" Rangga. He waved at Khanza.
Then immediately turn around to step. The khanza? in his steps.
Rara and Ratih went inside.
Train leads in.
"Sorry to have inconvenienced buk Ratih. I shouldn't have just rested, I don't have to wait for Rara to come home."
"It's okay, miss. This is my job!"
They continued to walk towards the elevator.
"Rara went up alone. I'll go back to the room and rest."
"Yes Miss!"
"Oh yes buk, Brother Cio?" ask where Cio is. Have you slept or else outside. Who knows, his brother is having some important business outside.
"Mr Ryu is in his room" replied Ratih.
Rara down the corridor upstairs. He stopped right in front of Ryu's room door.
"So I must be sleeping!" his inner. There's no way her brother's in the study. Because as it passed, the workspace looked dark. There are no lights on inside. Long enough Rara stood pecking at the door, staring sadly at her own thoughts. Then he immediately stepped into his room. Rara opened the door and entered. Then shut the door back. When she turned around she was shocked to see Ryu sitting on a single sofa near her bed.
"Sister?" said slowly. He looked at Ryu who was looking at him. Rara's heart was slightly shriveled by that look. An angry look mixed with sadness. Rara took off her sling bag and also a paper bag containing groceries. Then slowly walked closer to Ryu who was just silently watching him. Once in front of Ryu he grabs Ryu's right hand, barks, and down to his forehead.
Ryu's heart was filled with what he was doing.
This girl still respects herself.
"Why is my brother here? I should have slept and rested!"
"Waiting you home." Ryu replied flatly. He did not want to reprimand Khanza home this late because he did not want to increase the distance between them.
Rara was silent at his words. Rara looked at her watch, it was already 10 and she was unaware of it. It was only fitting that Cio had not slept this hour and was waiting for him to come home.
"Rara's gone home safely no less! I'd better go back to my sister's room, Rara's tired of taking a break" she said later.
Ryu's heart was again filled with sadness upon hearing that remark. Her chest feels tight.
Since then he had just been sitting in Khanza's room thinking, figuring out what was the cause of the girl's change. Unsettled at the thought of Khanza who went alone with another man.
He hoped that after Rara returned from her journey with Rangga, it would change again like yesterday. But the attitude of this girl remains the same.
"Rest, you must be tired, right? This whole day worked. Rara wants to sleep too!" said Rara again saw Cio just dumbstruck in his place.
He took off his shoes, then walked into the changing room to change clothes.
Ryu got up from his seat and walked quickly closer. So close he immediately hugged Khanza from behind.
"Daddy, don't keep going like this. Don't ignore the brother. Don't make your sister nervous, confused by your cold attitude!" he said hoarsely withstanding sorrow.
"If you say wrong. If you have a problem say, Don't hold your own, don't stay away from big brother! We just met and lived together after a dozen years apart. I don't want to be far from you!" said Ryu kissed Khanza's head.
Rara's sadness is mounting. Eyes glazed. His chest rumbled strongly holding back the sound of crying so as not to come out.
"Khanza..don't just shut up deck, please Answer brother! Brother is sad and tormented by your change of attitude. Brother is confused about what to do if you just keep quiet and don't want to talk honestly!"
Rara sighed sadly. Swallow saliva to moisten the throat that feels bitter and dry. He pressed his two wet eyes. Then turned his body to face Cio.
He looked into his brother's wet eyes.
"Sister didn't do anything wrong. There's nothing wrong. There's no problem either. Everything is good. Rara has not changed. Rara is still the same as before. Still love the same brother, appreciate and respect brother as sister Rara ! Brother don't be sad and confused on Rara. Nothing has changed for Rara!"
"But Khanza's attitude of keeping his distance is not as usual. Brother feels you are staying away from brother!" Ryu stared at every part of his sister's face.
Rara puffed her lips and swallowed her saliva. He smiled again among his sorrow.
"Rara didn't mean it that way. Rara just wants to learn independently does not want to trouble others. Rara Wants to do all things on her own without relying on anyone else including sister! Rara wants to learn how to do this and do it herself! Rara learns to live alone to be strong and not be afraid of facing something that makes Rara afraid" she said looking into Ryu's red eyes.
"Rara does not want to continue to depend on her brother in everything. Including guarding and protecting Rara at all times!" continued back.
"Sister has said many times, brother does not feel disturbed by all that. Big brother is happy to do it for you! Brother is not burdened in the least! Big brother naturally looks after and protects you, because Khanza's sister's brother!" Ryu holds Khanza's face.
"But when are you? Brother can't take care of me continuously 1x24 hours. We can't always be together! Someday we will be apart!" Rara looked at him.
"Khanza....!" ryu said with trembling lips.
"Rara really wants us to be together forever, but someday we will still be apart. Sister will leave Rara when sister is getting married and having a wife."
Ryu was flabbergasted to hear his words. His heart ached, his chest tightened. Her tears fell.
Rara sighed sadly. She tried to smile between her wet tears. Slowly she held onto Ryu's face. Sweep the tears of the man who loved her so much.
"Makanya Rara wants to learn to live independently without relying on her older sister. Learning to live without a sister. In order for later when Anggi's brother and sister get married, Rara is used to doing anything on her own without asking for her sister's help again. And Rara will get used to living without a sister next to Rara" he said sobbing.
Ryu immediately hugged her. Hugging it strong don't want to let go.
"No deck, we'll be together forever. Whatever happens brother will not leave you, we will not part! You will not live without you!" inner Ryu cried sobbing.
