Helena nodded her head. After that, he began to approach Diah. Helena smiled faintly as she gently rubbed Diah's back.
"Diah, come with me for a second. Don't cry anymore! Shelvi is not calm" Helena said.
"Mbak Helena, I'd love to catch up with Shelvi. I can't live without him" Diah replied. He looked at Helena with glassy eyes.
"Don't talk like that, Diah! You don't pity Bara, hm? He also suffered greatly. If you leave, then who will take care of it?" ask Helena.
Diah was silent when she heard Helena's words. After that, he looked towards Bara, who was now talking to Kenzo. Diah's tears are back. After many years of marriage with Bara, only this time she saw her husband was so weak. Diah knew her husband must have been hit harder than she was.
"It seems like I've been a bad wife and mother, Ma'am. I couldn't educate Shelvi, so she became a brutal child. I am a sinner" said Diah, bowing his head.
"Don't talk like that! You did your best for your family. Now you calm down, yeah! Don't make Bara suffer more from watching you cry."
Diah no longer spoke after hearing Helena's words. Everything Helena said was true. It should not be too late in grief and ignore the feelings of Bara.
Now, although the feelings of grief were still so deep, Diah tried to smile. He tried to convince himself that everything would be fine. Although Shelvi has already left her.
"Thank you very much, Ma'am. Now I'm calmer" said Diah.
"Yes, now let me help you and Bara with Shelvi's funeral."
Diah nodded, feeling grateful for having a good friend like Helena.

"Do the police know who did it, Ken?" asked Bara with emotions starting to mount in her heart.
"Not yet, because the police are still looking for evidence - other evidence. But you take it easy, I've got people investigating this,"
Bara nodded his head. His eyes looked red with anger.
"I'm pretty sure it was Kevin. I'm not going to let him get away this time" Bara said.
"Not necessarily Kevin, Bara. As long as there's no accurate evidence, we can't accuse anyone,"
"But, if not Kevin who else, Ken? Because all this time only he was close to Shelvi,"
"But don't they love each other? So I don't think Kevin's gonna kill Shelvi."
"We'll see, Ken. Because I am one hundred percent sure that Kevin is the mastermind of all this" Bara said with a scary grin on her lips.
"Mara?" call Kenzo. His eyes were so intense when he looked at Bara.
"What's wrong? Ah, yes I'm sorry I haven't done your job, Ken. But I promise I'll finish it all soon" Bara said he took his eyes off Kenzo because he didn't want his boss to see him who now began to look glassy.
Kenzo smiled after that he approached Bara. He patted Bara's shoulder softly and said "No need to hold - hold on, cry!"
Hearing Kenzo's words, Bara's breath choked. His chest rumbled because of the tightness that had been lingering in his heart. Bara lowered his head with his hands clenched together.
"Ken, i...."
"Being a man doesn't mean you shouldn't cry, Bara. I know, right now you must be sad."
Bara shook his head slowly. What Kenzo said was true. His heart is so sad now. Not only sad but also broken after being in residence by Shelvi.
"A. I'm a very bad father, Ken. I can't even accompany Shelvi for the rest of her life. I'm...."
Enough, Bara was unable to continue his words. He sat down on the chair not long after a soft stuffing came out of his lips. Bara wept, he poured out all his sorrow as a father through tears.
"I was devastated when I found out my daughter was killed. I'm disappointed that I haven't been able to lead him to be a good person, Ken. I..., really tersiska.
"I know, Bara. But, you've become a very good parent. Without you there's no way Shelvi will grow up to be a beautiful, charming girl,"
"But he's so mean, Ken. He never even listened to me. My sweet shelter has changed and now she's gone. What kind of old man am I," said Bara. He held out his hand and slapped his own cheek repeatedly.
Seeing this, Kenzo hurriedly blocked Bara's wrist directly.
"Don't hurt yourself Bara! Listen me! This is not the time to be sad. Let Shelvi go quietly and let's take care of the funeral."
Bara was silent after hearing Kenzo's words. His breathing began to hunt, his face also looked reddened by such great anger. In addition, Bara also grinned while looking straight ahead.
"For God's sake, Ken. I'm not gonna let the killer live quietly,"
