Empty look. His face was moping. No more smiles. There was not much he did at his parents' house. Just shutting yourself in the room. Lamenting the end of her love story. Only occasionally he came out of the room and it was successful to make his parents and sister worried.
“Kak Delfin really will split with Kak Cia?” farah asked the mother who was washing the dishes for their dinner.
“Maybe it's the best.” Farida responded to the child's question without seeing her daughter standing next to her. Farah snorted, causing Farida to divert attention to the princess. “Why?”
“Farah expected this to happen, Ma.” Farida frowned hearing the words of her daughter. “The difference between Kak Delfin and Kak Cia is too far. It feels too jomplang. Love is not enough to survive. There must be mutual trust and understanding. Although in reality Kak Delfin has tried to be in line with Kak Cia, but all that will never be enough.”
“Why can you think like that?” Farida asked for the princess.
“Because it is like that the reality. Sister Cia is used to living a luxurious life, it will only make Kak Delfin continue to work hard in order to meet the needs of Kak Cia. That's why I've been lacking with sister Cia. It is different with Ziya. Had Kak Delfin been with Kak Ziya, the two of them would have filled each other. Not overlapping like sister Delfin with Kak Cia where only Kak Delfin who continues to try to make Kak Cia happy. Unless Kak Cia can be more unpretentious with a simple life, it's a different story.”
Farida heard Farah's long speech. He did not expect at all, if the princess was able to analyze the household life of her brother. “But, Cia herself did not actually mind Delfin's earnings in case Delfin could not match her.” A defense Farida gave to Cia.
“Yes. Thas right. I'm not denying that either. But, everything came back again, Kak Delfin's pride as the head of the household was at stake. He will continue to be ridiculed by Grandpa Pram for not being on par with his grandson. And I know Brother Delfin. He will not be able to if his pride continues to be stepped on.”
Silent. Farida confirmed what her daughter had said. Without them knowing, Delfin had heard the conversation of his mother and beloved sister. Slowly he stepped back. Without much thought he grabbed the car keys and rushed out of the house.
Farida and Farah who heard the roar of Delfin's car could only sigh in resignation. “Hopefully Brother Delfin can soon rise from all this,” said Farah.
“Mama please also like that.” That middle-aged face looked sad. It was unexpected that the son would get a test like this.

“Job! Shit!” he continued to sip the drink he had touched the first time. Although it feels like burning the throat, but he still continues to gulp. Again and again, up to three glasses of vodka had been spent. His sight had blurred. His body began to feel dazed.
“It turns out that my love and earnestness are never enough for you, huh, Ci?” ask more of yourself. He closed his eyes, the clear grain just dripped from the corner of his eye. “You're outrageous, Cia! You betrayed our love and marriage. You shit!” The bait just slid.
Delfin tried to re-establish his body. Filling his glass again with liquid that increasingly took away his sanity. The bartender who served him only snorted. He knew who the drunk man was and was sitting in front of him.
“Mas Delfin is drunk. Enough, Mas!” The bartender tried to block Delfin from downing his drink.
“Peduli satan. My wife no longer cares about me. She is pregnant with another man.”
The bartender was stunned to hear Delfin's words, but he regained consciousness. That's not the land. He will only make sure Delfin who he knows as an artist, also the brother of Farah –his college friends –home safe.
He reached into his pocket, picked up his cell phone and started calling Farah. A startled shout greeted the bartender's ear before the girl finally agreed to come and pick him up.
Thirty minutes, Farah came along with Bagus and Ziya. Farah could not have come to the club by himself, because he had only come to a place like this for the first time.
“Still, yes, Al,” said Farah when she found Delfin in the supervision of a handsome man with a charming smile.
“Same-sama, Far.” The bartender smiled kindly at Farah. The two of them only know each other, greet each other but not too close either.
“I'm back, yes. Again thanks.”
“Okey. Careful.”
Nice and Ziya just nodded politely at the man called Al by Farah. Nice and Ziya carried Delfin to get out of that noisy place. Farah just followed behind.
“This is the story, Delfin can get drunk like gini?” tanya Ziya when she was in Delfin's car with Farah, while Bagus was in the car they were in when they left to pick up Delfin and follow from behind.
Ziya looked at the man he loved. Just this time Ziya saw a fragile looking Delfin figure.
“Perhaps because soon Kak Delfin and Kak Cia divorced, so make Kak Delfin frustrated,” explained Farah while driving Delfin's car.
Guilt was now growing in his heart. He could not lie to himself that he was one of the people who participated in the separation of Delfin and Cia.
“We go back to Kak Delfin's apartment, yes. I'm afraid mama and papa are sad to see sister Delfin like this,” pinta Farah on Ziya.
Arriving at Delfin's apartment, the man went back to acting. He was raving indistinctly, but it sounded heartbreaking.
“You threw me that way. You don't want to see how hard I fight to be in line with your position. You're selfish, Ci. You are blind to my sacrifice, so that you can easily turn to other men. And it hurts more when I find out you're pregnant with her child. Goddamnit!” mean it.
Delfin thrashed as he was about to be brought into the room, looking at Ziya and nice as if he was looking at Cia and Farel. Good and Ziya who was not ready to be pushed by Delfin until they fell down.
“Delfin Pack!” jolt Farah, “what did Big Brother do?” Farah helped Ziya to get up.
“They're fucked, Far. They're both savage.” Delfin's getting mixed up. He approached Ziya looking at him sharply. “You cheap lady, Cia!” The next second everyone was made to gawk by Delfin. Ziya could only stand glued to what Delfin was doing. Both of his hands were clenched tightly. The man is now smacking greedily his ranum lips.
Delfin was getting wild, he was increasingly expressing anger and longing on Ziya's thin lips. Even Delfin bit Ziya's lips until it bled and it made Ziya's consciousness return. He rebelled, trying to get away from Delfin. Good and Farah who saw it instantly helped.
Delfin who had lost his sanity gave a raw bogem to Bagus who he thought was Farel. “Fuck men! How could you dare fuck my wife. Huh?” Delfin prepared to strike back at Bagus, but one slap landed perfectly on his cheek. Make his consciousness return a little.
“You slap Big Brother, Far?” tanyanya lunglai's.
“Sister deserves that. Look what you've done!” Farah pointed at Ziya who was now on the floor in shock at Delfin.
“Zi,” called him softly when his net caught the figure of Ziya who was resting on the floor.
“And see also what Big Brother has done to Mas Bagus!”
Delfin stared at Bagus who was wiping the corners of his slightly bloody lips.
“Argh!!” he cried out in frustration while pulling his own hair. Not long after that he collapsed, falling unconscious.
...***...
Delfin tried to contact Ziya this morning. He intends to apologize for last night's incident. Until the sound of the bell is heard, a sign that someone will visit. He opened the door of his apartment.
“Zi,” his voice choked when he saw the figure standing in front of the door.
“Can I log in?”
“Come. I want to talk to you too.”
Delfin and Ziya were sitting opposite each other in the living room. “Farah?” ask Ziya.
“Home home early this morning.”
Ziya nodded in understanding. “Someone I want to talk about.”
“Zi, a-I'm sorry for what I did last night,” Og Delfin, “please, don't leave me for my mistake last night. I need you, Zi,”.
Ziya was dumbstruck, staring wistfully at the handsome face whose sanity had now fully recovered. “It's not you who should apologize, but I.”
Delfin stared fixedly at Ziya's face. It was still a warm kiss last night, even though his consciousness was thinning, but he could feel how sweet it was. When his gaze fell on those thin lips, somehow the demon possessed him to the point of wanting to repeat.
“I'm sorry, Delfin. Because of me you and Miss Cia have to split up.” The clear thread just fell on his smooth cheek.
“It wasn't your fault, Zi.” He longed to wipe away the tears on Ziya's cheek, but he said he remembered his mistake last night.
“No, Fin. My fault. I did deliberately tempt you to separate from Bu Cia. I'm the messenger from Pram's grandfather who has planned everything carefully. Pardon us. But one thing you should know, I had to do it all. The siblings of the home need a place to stay and only Grandpa Pram is willing to help in exchange I helped him separate you and Ms. Cia,”.
Delfin stared at the figure before him. He tried hard to digest every word out of the thin lips he had enjoyed last night. Then his laughter filled his apartment.
