The Moon is Split
The Two Men's Dispute



Only three months since Keren's departure, Kira had already felt half of her soul being lost. If Cool is still alive, maybe they will feel college together. Maybe even study at the same college. Kira can't forget Cool. Although she had only met her twin sister when they were seventeen, Kira felt that they were very close, like being raised together.


"This house is deserted without you, Cool. I miss you so much" Kira cried looking at her last photo with Cool.


"Dec .."


Kira was unconscious when Arzie entered her room.


"You miss it cool?"


Kira did not answer, only the tears were flowing more and more. Arzie hugged his sister.


"Sister Arzie also misses the same Cool, very long"


"This house is deserted without, Cool huh Brother? I miss his babbling. Missed chattering. Missing his judes attitude. Misses him being here, brother"


"Yes, darling .... Brother Arzie also feels what you feel. Feel the same grief. Let's just pray Cool is calm down there"


"Amale .."

After college, Kira took the time to visit Keren's tomb. There he meets Imel, Cool's best friend.


"Kira ..."


"Immy..."


"How are you? You must be just like me, still missing Cool, right??"


Kira nodded her head.


"Look at you I feel cool still here. He's still alive in our hearts, people who love him"


"Yes, you're right Mel. Cool will always live in our hearts, people who love him"


Imel and Kira offered prayers in front of Keren's tomb. Then put the flowers seruni or chrysanthenum, favorite flower Cool above the navel.


Imel and Kira walk towards the outside of the cemetery. Imel took her in his car for a while. Imel tells what happened before Keren returned to Japan. About Cool who knows Alex's heart choices. About how Kira feels about Alex. About Alex's promise to her to make Kira happy. Also about Cool who mengikhlaskan Kira with the man he also loves.


"I'm sure that deep down in Cool's heart, he wants to see you happy with Alexi" Imel said.

Kira sat daydreaming in a park chair in the city park. He was looking at what had happened. If I hadn't met Alexi, maybe Cool could be happy right now with the man she loves, is that what Kira has in mind.


A car stopped opposite him. Alexi got out of the car and approached Kira. Kira who realized that Alexi immediately got up from his seat and left.


"Kira ... Wait", Alexi's hand grabbed his hand faster.


Kira tried to let go of the man's handrails.


"Take me off, brother"


"I'm not letting you go. Why do you always avoid me Kira?"


"Let me alone, brother. I beg you"


"Listen to me Kira. I've told you many times. The woman I love in this world is you. There's nothing else. And this has nothing to do with Cool. Even though you're twins but I love you, Kira. Not Cool"


"I told you .... "


"Keren is dead, brother. Don't hurt his feelings anymore. Let her calm down there", Kira yells and pulls the ladder from Alex's grasp.


"What did you say? Cool died?"


"Yes, three months ago"


"How is that possible?!"


"He had a motorcycle accident in Japan"


"Yes, God .... Cool ...", Alex was shocked to hear the news of Cool's death.


He was flabbergasted, silent a thousand languages. Didn't expect this to happen.


"For that, forget me, brother. Forget everything that ever happened between us. I feel guilty for Cool. I don't want to hurt her anymore"


Alex pulls Kira by the hand and hugs the woman he loves. Kira tries to escape Alex's embrace.


Suddenly ... Someone pushed Alexi's body to the ground.


Kira was surprised to see that. His brother was by his side.


"Keep your hand away from, Kira. Or else I'll beat you to the ground"


Alex wakes up and launches a counterattack against Arzie. As a tadpole, Arzie was indeed waiting for this moment. And so is Alexi. He had waited for this moment a long time. He was still upset about what happened first.


"You don't interfere in my business, Mr. Arzie"


"If it had anything to do with Kira, it would be my business. You heard that!!", Arzie threw his fist at Alex. Alexi dodged it quickly.


"What's your relationship with Kira?"


"He's my brother"


"Sister? You think I believe your jokes"


"Stop, Brother!!"


Kira stood in front of Arzie, as Alex stopped his fists that had been pointed at Arzie.


"Get out of here, Dek. This is a men's business" said Arzie who is still emotional.


He did not want to repeat the same mistake. He no longer wanted to lose his only brother. He felt annoyed to see there was a man who hugged his sister carelessly.


"Sister Arzie..Kira please"


Arzie who saw pleading with her, so no heart. Heart's out.


"Well, this time you're safe. Not next time. Don't repeat the same mistake on Cool. I'm not gonna take it if Kira hurts you again like what you did to Cool"


Kira followed her brother's steps towards the car. They went home and left Alex with a million questions in his head.
