Happiness in Jakarta is different from people in Jakarta. Every night before going to bed he asked God not to wake him up. He was tired of living this life. For five years life has been full of pain and tears. You should always pretend to be happy. Always alone and lonely friends. The man she hoped would be a place for her to lean on, quite the opposite. He could only give eye marks in the form of bruises and also dry blood.
"I'm tired, God." Complaints that come out of the mouth of the orange.
For five years he became a child. He was able to make peace with the rigors of life. He was able to make peace with the pain he was receiving. The purpose of her life right now is to want to be happy, even without family. He can stand on his own feet. He could eat every day and he felt grateful.
Now, Orange is at the point where he is not able to live it all. Find pain for the sake of the pain that always hits him. In fact, he never hurt anyone. However, many people have hurt their hearts. The wounds in his heart were numerous. From just scratches, punctures to gaping wounds, orange felt. However, Orange tried to be strong because he believed God would not test His people beyond the limits of His people's ability. Different for tonight. That optimism and spirit just disappeared. Melt in the night wind.
"I give up, God."
There were no tears, no tears. It was as if everything was dry. Orange is completely numb. His face seemed to hold everything there was, especially sadness and pain.
Yesterday night, Jingga came home from work at ten in the evening without being picked up and just on foot. He saw the Dawn with a piggybacking woman and was very affectionate. No jealousy, no anger everything is flat.
Twelve o'clock in the evening, he had just arrived at his rented and there was Dawn there already. The orange did not greet Dawn at all.
"Sir."
Dawn was already smiling towards Orange and was about to kiss the tip of the head of Orange. However, until immediately evaded. The dawn raised its eyebrows very sharply.
"I'm tired, I want to rest." The orange just passed. However, Dawn managed to grab hold of the orange hand and gripped it very firmly.
"Never dodge!" his jolt.
As strong as the energy of Jionga shook the hand that was blocked by Dawn, thus making the veins of anger on the face of Dawn reappear.
Plaque!
Plaque!
Plaque!
A hard slap glides freely on the Orange cheek. His body staggered backwards. There was no cry, no plea for mercy as usual.
Orange tried to get up, she grabbed something from inside her bag.
"You'll kill me once. I'll be happier." The knife he thrust towards Dawn.
"Kill me now and I'll be very grateful to you."
This is where the phase in which the Orange has given up ruthlessly lives. For more than two years, he lived in hell with Dawn.
"I'm sincere and I'm ready to die." Very cold words coming out of the mouth of the orange.
Dawn approached and wanted to embrace the orange. He knows, Orange is not okay.
"Don't come any closer! Or I'm gonna stick this into my body" he threatened.
The orange had already opened the folding knife, and pointed the pointed part of the knife towards his stomach. Dawn is really scared. He chose to back off and leave. He did not want to be accused of being a murderer.
The body of the orange slid to the floor. She was crying because she was tired of everything. She shed her tears in the darkness of the night all by herself.

Aska woke up this morning because she got word that Jingga was not out of this early morning contract. Panic, surely Aska felt. Last night, Aska was too focused on her college assignments. Until he forgot the reports from his men. When morning came, he opened all the messages from his men.
"Overnight Orange almost thrust a knife into his body."
Aska's eyes widened. Fear and worry are one.
One by one the people who were feeling happiness returned to their jobs. Now, there was only Aska, Ayanda and a happy couple. They're like stamps, very sticky.
"Ri, don't be slovenly, yeah. Later Mommy will make an appointment with the best obstetrician," said Ayanda.
"Yes, Mom."
"Tumben this morning you didn't have nausea and vomiting?" Ayanda was a little surprised, usually Riana will experience morning sickness.
Aksa's eyes widened when she heard her mother's words. He was staring fixedly at Riana right now.
"Ri, just don't want to see Brother worried. Ri, don't want to interfere with your work, brother" he said.
Aksa smiled at the words of his wife. She kissed the tip of Riana's head lovingly.
"From now on don't cover anything from brother, yeah. Especially about our future son."
Aska who heard the brother's words felt full. That sentence was very sincere, he did not expect that soon his brother would become a father. His lips curled when he saw his twin and brother's sister happy.
"The cave must pursue the happiness of the cave," his inner self.
"Mom, today Adek will go to Jogja."
Ayanda was slightly surprised by the words of the youngest son. In contrast to Aksa and Riana who swooped both their eyebrows.
"Loh, what's up? Why impromptu?" ask the mother. It is not usual for Aska to tell about his sudden departure.
"There's a little trouble at the branch cafe, Mom. Today too Adek must fly there." Aska was convincing her mother. His eyes glanced at Aksa to help her.
"Justin, Mom. The Adek's gonna go take care of the cafe for nothing else." Aksa began to help convince the mother. Though, Aksa knew it was not a matter of cafes, but a matter of the heart.
"Yes, be careful." Finally, the mother allowed.
"Yes, Mom."
"Where will you sleep? Your brother will be here" asked Ayanda.
"Password apartment you're still the same, aren't you, Bang?" Aksa shook her head, the type of sister nodded. That's how the mind will speak.
"Udah cave replace." An upset came out of Aska's mouth.
"Oh, yes, the cave sleeps in the store's apartment" Aska lamented.
"Finance!"
"Gua is not a businessman Abang tamvan, the cave is just a cafe waiter," said Aska.
Ayanda will laugh when she sees her two children talking. Aska's final words that will make Aksa pity him.
"Lu remember the date of the cave wedding?" Aska nodded, then she opened her voice. "Which wedding?" tejek Aska's.
"Bhang Sat!" peekik Aksa's.
"Gua is not Bhang Sat. Bang As Cave!" his reply.
