" now everything has changed, it feels the same as when I finished going home from college, a dark house without a mother figure.Today there are men who will take care of her , I told myself to accept it with all my heart, but it didn't feel the same "he thought.
" now why don't you turn on the lights, the house goes dark like it's uninhabited" said the new Nathan until he immediately looked for a light switch turned on all the lights of the house and now it just looks the splendor of the house.
" sister has arrived " said nita.
" mas I'm up yes arga is asleep" said Irene who was riding arga.
" yes, " replied nathan.
looking at Nita who was sitting alone while daydreaming, Nathan immediately approached her and sat next to her, but before that she poured the water in a glass to drink.
" do you have a problem ?" nathan asked softly.
" there is no ", answered Nita gently.
" now why are you so limp like you don't have the energy to get up" Nathan pulled the nita who was lying on the pillow and leaned her head against the sofa.
" ricko's up there you don't want to see him "
" after this mother will probably come with uncle edward , so this house will be quiet "nathan continued he uttered it with glazed eyes.
" that's not going to happen "
" how do you know ?"

" so you agree because ..."
" yes .. I agree if uncle edward meets my requirements, mother must stay in this house with us all uncle edward who must come here "
" nita what are you doing, now it's up to them both we don't prevent it because all the responsibility is in uncle edward "
" sister now try brother think , uncle edward has long lived in America , what brother will give up mother if he brings mother living in america ? I don't want you to be away from me " said Nita who was still relaxed.
" just be honest you haven't accepted uncle edward instead of "Nathan said with heart.
nita glanced at Nathan deeply and then she got up from her backrest "if I don't accept it why would I let her marry him "
" because you don't want to make you sad, but if you don't do it from the heart and if you know what you mean you think you'll be happy ? why don't you try to take it right "
" sister mother is married now, I will not think about the many things about uncle edward I will take it as usual "

" last yes "he said .
" just later in 'em, this is on the stairs let's go in first "
