It was Alea's voice that broke the silence that afternoon. He had just come with Edho who looked tired after work.
“Tante Niken, om hero, raka, tumben play here?” greet Alea while greeting Niken and Wira.
He glanced at Raka and Reva who were sitting side by side.
“Lea just came home nak?” ask Niken.
“Iya aunty, now lea working in papih office. But how can reva come?” Alea's facial expression changed drastically upon seeing Reva.
“Em yes, hay lea..” Reva is trying to be as friendly as possible to the woman who is said to be his biological brother.
Alea smiled sarcastically at Reva's greeting. It felt like his frustration wanted him to just spill over.
“Concidentally, reva is now staying with us, so he's coming here.” Niken with doubt. He continued to look at the face of this beautiful girl who was overcome with tension.
“What is the stay with aunt? Gag wrong?” Alea turned away in disbelief.
“Iya, indeed why lea?” Niken was surprised by Alea's sudden reaction and looked dislikeful.
“Tante equals to know who this woman is?” asked Alea in a raised voice. It seemed that he could no longer hold back his anger. He looked at Reva with hatred and disgust.
Hearing Alea's rising voice, it turned out to disturb Nida who had been silent in her room and drowned in her daydream. He immediately got out of his bed. He wondered what made his daughter raise her voice.
He went out of the room and down one by one the stairs in his house.
“Let me tell you..” Alea looked back at the cynical Reva with a thin, menacing smile.
“Lea , enough.. Don't kayak it.” Edho tried to hold Alea back while taking something out from inside his bag.
Edho knew very well what his cousin's sister would do, because on the way home, he continued to curse Reva and say his dislike.
“Lo gag need to interfere brother!” Alea shook Edho's hand.
“Alea, what's going on? You should politely talk to guests.” Gertak Indra who saw the unusual gelagat his daughter.
“Hah, papih will know now.” Alea throws some photos in front of Wira, Niken and Indra.
Photo Reva with some men who look close. Niken took one of the photos, a photo of Reva accompanying a man in a bar.
Reva's body felt like it was about to collapse, he still had not prepared himself for the events of today.
“Need om, aunt and papih tau, this woman is female ******!” aela's first sentence jolted anyone who heard her words.
“Lea, stop!” snapped Raka, but Alea instead smiled cynically.
“Why, you are afraid of your girlfriend card?” challenge Alea with a look of disdain at Reva. “You guys need to know, reva this call girl! Any man can he win if he has money! Brother Edho, Fery, and many more men who fell into the trap of this disgusting woman. And now lo! Open your eyes wide, know who you like!” aela shouted at Raka.
All gazes were now on Reva. With trembling hands he took one photo at a time shown by Alea. His tears just dripped, he was embarrassed, yes very embarrassed, even just to raise his face and look at the people around him he could not.
“You want to take where is a photo ******?!” Alea shouted while hitting Reva's hand until the photos fell scattered.
“PLAK!!”
A loud slap landed on Alea's cheek. It was Niken who had unknowingly landed the slap on Alea.
“Tante, aunty mukul lea due to ****** this is?!” Shouted Alea who did not accept. He held his face which was hot because of a hard slap from Niken. His eyes were reddened with hateful eyes.
Alea and Indra gaped in disbelief. Edho and Nida heard Niken's words.
With gontai Nida approaching. It was like there was a bolt of lightning that then gathered all of his consciousness. She knew a beautiful girl who was now bowed in her deep cries but she never knew it was her daughter.
Indra dropped his body on the sofa, he still could not believe what he heard.
“Niken, is he right?” nida's trembling voice was earthy with the roar of breath hunting Niken.
“Iya nida, she's lana. Our missing daughter 17 years ago.” Said Niken while sobbing.
In that instant, those eyes of mine melted the tears without excuse. Nida looked at the face of the girl in front of her. He touched the deathly pale face with trembling hands.
“Lana...” Lirih Nida with a trembling voice. Reva just nodded slowly, she was unable to speak.
“Mamih! Janga believe!” alela exclaimed with trembling lips. “This must be just the wits of this woman doang!” Alea still could not accept. "Lo sell your self-esteem to make dapetin money, now this is how you make more money huh? Pretending to be my friend? Lo crazy reva!" continued Alea who really did not accept.
“Enough!” Shouted Nida. He looked at Alea with anger. The first time in his life, he snapped at the princess without her noticing.
Alea understood. His current position was highly unlikely against Nida. He also understood, how much the comparison of his affection for him and his sister. Alea immediately ran to her room and Edho immediately chased after her.
“Lana, darling…. This really you son?” Nida stroked Reva's hair gently. Reva is back. In an instant, Nida immediately hugged her daughter tightly. He cried so much that he shed every grief he tried to endure for years. They embrace as if they do not want to be separated from each other.
Indra who had been watching, immediately ran to the wife and daughter who missed him. Perhaps this was the reason for the unfamiliar feeling he felt while talking to this girl.

Nida took Reva to her room as a child. They sat facing each other by the bed. Nida's eyes could not escape his sight on Reva. The tears were still not drying but the smile was clearly visible on the beautiful face that now seemed to get millions of new energy. Right, as he looked at this beautiful girl before him, he was like reflecting.
Nida stroked Reva's hair gently and one hand clasped her finger tightly. Happy, more than Nida feels right now.
“You went so long, son, until mamih gag recognized you.” Nida's hands roamed every point of Reva's face. “Liat, your eyebrows look like mammoths, but your nose and lips look like papih.” Nida smiled in her deep breath. It seemed that he was not satisfied looking at the princess he so missed.
“Then, not much time spent with you and after you left, I realized maybe this is how God made you realize that you mean so much to us.” Tukas Nida with a warm smile at the end of his sentence.
Reva also smiled, it was inevitable that she felt very happy. Although there was still a lingering feeling in his chest.
Not long after, the door to Reva's room rang and opened. Seen the face of a man who was smiling on 2 women he loved.
“Sini pih...” Nida patted the spot beside her. Indrapun approached and sat down beside Reva.
“You are a mature baby, papih still feels this is like a dream.” Indra said while peeping the head of Reva, something he had not done for a very long time.
“Content mih, pih, thanks already want to receive reva. Sorry if a lot of things have been reva done and may disappoint you.”
Reva looked at Indra and Nida alternately. He's really sorry. He should never have done something that would probably embarrass himself even those around him. But everything is over, a bad story will still be a bad story. And this time Reva will not repress again, he must remember it, so that later he does not make the same mistake.
“We gag ever know how heavy your life has been, son. But we know you're a strong boy. Mamih same papih gag ever feel disappointed, can come back to see you far give us gratitude that we can not express. Thank you son, already back in our life.” Tukas Nida hugged his daughter. Followed by Indra who hugged the two women beside him.
This happiness felt complete to Nida and the senses. They were endlessly giving thanks in their hearts.
