Sometimes the worst part isn't letting go but rather learning to start over.

Happy reading...
After injecting the illicit goods into his veins, Adam felt calm. No more painful feelings like that. He also felt calmer and happier. He sat down for a moment to enjoy the view of the blue sky and the cool breeze.
Can I be like this without this bastard ? I wanted to stop using it but it felt like dying, Adam's inner self while glancing at the empty used syringe.
In a calm state, Adam recalls his blissful past. The moments where her parents and her adorable little sister named Liona still gather in a warm family state. The economic situation of Adam's family was once simple but everything was trying to support each other. Every night his father and mother were there to take them to a dream.
The accident took the life of Liona when her father and mother were out of town to grow their family business. Adam, who was 14 at the time, was given the task of looking after 6-year-old Liona.
At that time, after school Adam had to pick up his sister at the elementary school adjacent to Adam's Junior High. A different clock makes Liona have to wait for Adam at school. But it turns out instead of picking up Liona, Adam is more interested in following his friends playing online games at the cafe opposite the school. Adam plans to pick up Liona after 1 hour of online gaming.
Lione felt that she had waited for her brother for too long. He decides to go see Adam at his school. While walking, Liona sees Adam and his friends walking into the cafe. She tried to shout her brother around but the noise of the crowded vehicle made her voice muffled. When Liona crossed the road to catch up with her brother, she was hit by a speeding car. Liona was dragged for two meters and her body was covered in blood. Before closing his eyes for good, he had a glance at the cafe where he saw his brother enter. Liona died at that time before she was taken to the hospital.

Ara came home tired as the sun was about to set. The house is still empty it is a sign that Mbok Ina has not returned home. He went straight to the kitchen to drink water. While taking the water he saw a message from mbok Ina.
"The food is in the refrigerator. Before the meal is heated first. Cook hot water for a bath and don't take a cold shower." That's how the message mbok Ina.
"That's mbok... " Ara answered Ina's mbok message while chuckling happily.
Ara continued her activities to clean up. She plans to work on her script after dinner. Once the food was ready, he took his phone to contact Ina. When her call was just connected, Ara heard the sound of the front door being opened. It turns out that Mbok Ina has returned home.
"Night son... Already eaten?" ina asked as Ara kissed her hand.
"Not yet, this just happened to want to eat. We eat together mbok." replied Ara while taking mbok Ina to eat.
"She kid.just go to the dinner table later mbok nyulus." Mbok Ina passed towards his room to clean himself up.
At dinner together, Ara occasionally glanced at Ina's mbok. He was eager to ask about Ina's mbok employer. In the end, he decided to ask.
"Bok, how do you feel about working with the rich?" tanya Ara started the conversation.
"Yes as in maids in general, son." replied mbok Ina.
"What is their family? They are rich so they certainly never feel lacking," asked Ara curious.
"Too cold how the hell is mbok?" ask Ara.
"There is no warm atmosphere of a family like laughter, small talk, or activities together. Everyone is busy with their own business. They also gather at breakfast, which rarely happens. The big lord is busy, the madam is equally busy. Young people are rarely at home. Even if there is an interaction between parents and children, it is just a big master's decree so that the young master prepares himself to be a worthy heir. It's their family situation." Mbok Ina explained the state of his employer's family.
Ara was silent for a moment hearing Ina's explanation. Indeed, family problems are the main problem of someone falling into things that are not good. But it all comes back to each of us.
"Keep, mbok Ina do not know the young master? Mbok ever see him behave strangely?" ara asked Adam.
"What strange behavior do you mean, son? Mbok knows it. His name is Adam. He is a very quiet person. He said he attended your college," said mbok Ina astonished by Ara's question.
"One campus is mbok but different majors. He's a business major."
"He deserves a business major. He will replace his father. Eh but, mbok very often see the young master coming home in a state of cold sweat while feeling pain. He's exhausted times huh... He is rarely at home. Maybe he's busy with his friend and his girlfriend's education." Mbok Ina.
Ara was stunned to hear the words mbok Ina. He remembered his meeting with Adam this afternoon.
The circumstances of Adam are exactly the same as those told by Ina.
Actually how long have you been using that illicit item ? inner Ara while tightening the grip on her spoon.
They finished their dinner. Mbok Ina immediately paid to rest because he felt very tired as well as Ara. Arriving in the room, Ara did not immediately do the script like the original plan. He was still sitting on the bed and daydreaming.
Ara thought about her past where Dio also experienced the same pain as Adam. Ara still felt that Dio's condition was mostly caused by him. It caused a sense of regret to always hurt his life until now.
Dio, it was like I saw you again this afternoon. But I saw you in so much pain. Will my regret end through Adam ? I should have realized that Adam wasn't you. But it feels like I want to reduce my regret for you through her. Inner Ara while closing her eyes reminiscing about Dio.
