"Sorry, Pa
Luna could not help but cry, clutching her papa hand tightly, as she continued to explain.
"It wasn't me who uploaded papa and mama's vidio. Someone's hijacking my IG. I logged out myself until now I can't log in anymore, Pa. I wasn't. I could swear. If Papa doesn't believe me, I'll show you the proof."
Nervously and with trembling hands, Luna looked for her phone. But unfortunately, his phone cracked after he slammed hard on the floor earlier. Instantly his shoulders sank increasingly in fear. Either it can still work or it doesn't.
"Here's my phone, I activate it first, Pa."
"You slamming?."
"I-iya Pa. I was very angry and could not control my emotions. I was shocked and really surprised to see papa and mama vidio uploaded the hijacker on my own IG. I-i..."
"But that doesn't mean you can slam things at will, right? You think buying things doesn't use money ! Papa is rich, Papa's parents are rich. But they always taught Papa to look after things. You can have bad habits like this! When angry Papa never slammed things. During his 20 years living with Rachel, Papa has never seen Rachel slam things. Your habits are so ugly Luna!."
Dilara immediately turned his head and squinted at Hendrawan.
"Why all of a sudden you bring someone else into our family conversation, Mas."
"Other people? Rachel's daughter! My biological daughter! I just want Luna to follow Rachel. Indeed, what is wrong with imitating positive things from his own siblings. Luna had to learn a lot from Rachel how to control emotions. Ck. Papa thinks you're more mature, but Papa's got it wrong. You're much more boyish and short wick. Before acting it was to think first what the consequences would be, Luna!"
Luna was getting powerless to hold back the cries. His heartache with the events that destroyed his career was not over, now plus the heartache of his father's speech that is very piercing.
How could his father compare him to Rachel !
Since long ago Hendrawan did like to compare with Rachel but the position was always on top while Rachel on the bottom. But now. Hendrawan seems to outdo Rachel and vilify her.
Luna wanted to defend herself, but her tears would not stop until sobbing. Luna could only cry in Dilara's arms.
"Then dong, enough!. Luna again down, do not add to this attitude of yours. As a father You should have calmed your daughter down first, hugged her and said everything would be fine even if now our condition is very difficult."
Dilara is very angry now. Annoyed at times because Hendrawan compared Luna to Rachel. There is no point in getting angry.
Dilara knows the nature of Hendrawan since college. Increasingly disputed. Hendrawan will be more and more so. So the best thing to solve this problem is to be patient and calm.
"Mas Hendrawan," call Dilara as gently as possible.
"Luna has explained his IG in the plow, meaning that there are indeed idiots who try to slander Luna. Not only slandering but also trying to pit our families. Whoever's behind all that mess, that guy must have had some sinister purpose for our family. They want our family destroyed."
Dilara let go of his embrace from Luna and stood up to Hendrawan.
"Mas" Dilara clasped Hendrawan's hand and stared fixedly at his eyes.
"Don't let that guy's goal succeed in destroying our family. We have to stick together no matter what. Luna was wrong and admitted her mistake. Luna's been apologizing too."
"Luna is young and in the process of maturing. I made sure Luna wouldn't waste such things again. From now on I will help Luna vent her anger by doing positive things."
Dilara rubbed Hendrawan's arm. Hendrawan's face was not as stiff as before, his neck veins were no longer prominent. Looks like Hendrawan has calmed down.
Dilara pulls Hendrawan in arms. This is how Dilara conquers a man, dampening his emotions with gentleness.
"Now all Mas Hendrawan has to do is find a trusted person to make down the news. Keep looking for the culprit, my hunch says that Ayuma recorded the video and spread it. I don't accuse you, but the only people who go in and out of our house are Ayuma and Rachel."
Hendrawan ruffled his hair violently. Damn, to build news portals it would require a lot of, maybe less than 1 M.
"Even though we have to spend a lot of money, but the future of our daughter and you too, Mas."
"Ck, that's so troublesome!." Hendrawan snorted, then looked at Luna who looked down and sobbed.
"But papa was already disappointed with you Luna. Papa wants you to move abroad."
Instantly, Luna looked up with shocked eyes.
"Commissenting?. I don't want to, pa. Who am I going abroad with? I don't want to be alone."
"It's for your own good, too, Luna. You just stop in the world of entertainment and focus on studying at an open campus. Papa will find the best campus abroad."
"But Pa..."
"There's no buts. Papa's decision is already unanimous."
Hendrawan stared intently at Luna and left the Apartment with a clenched hand. Luna's cries broke again and threw herself into her mama's arms.

"IIHHH YA AMUN SYUKURIN," Siwi pranced to see Breaking News on national TV which reported the vidio syur mama of young newcomer artist Luna Rawnie and the tycoon Tanoepramudya.
"Karma is paid cash, all of you! Oh I'm so happy. This news must also affect his company, Mr. Hendrawan. Hopefully, Mr. Hendrawan left Dilara and Luna, kept coming back to Bu Ayuma and begging for Bu Ayuma's love, but Bu Ayuma did not want to, mending marriage equals richer men handsome and established. Continues Pak Hendrawan increasingly worse his company went bankrupt and lived alone until he died hahaha."
Ayuma who was sitting on the sofa was smiling herself looking at Siwi's behavior. Ayuma also did not expect that this day would come, the day everyone knew of Hendrawan and Dilara's affair. Although Ayuma wished them to be destroyed, Ayuma never prayed for them to be destroyed, she only prayed for her own happiness and the happiness of her daughter.
But God, has his own way of avenging them without Ayuma needing to dirty his hands.
"Liar this can be a lesson for women out there who intend to become actors and also a lesson for model husband Pak Hendrawan who betrayed his wife for the sake of the actor. Their lives will not be happy above the suffering of others. I pray that Miss Ayuma and Miss Rachel will always be happy."
"Amin thank you for that."
"Together with Ms. Ayuma."
In the middle of their conversation, Ayuma's phone suddenly rang. There was a call from a new number.
"Hello, who?."
"Why did you block my number?."
Ayuma knitted her eyebrows, then smiled obliquely as she recognized the voice.
"Mas Hendrawan, what's wrong?."
