That night, Elnan knocked on Rendra's room. His heart and mind were very uneasy considering his conversation with Andrew. He really wanted to make sure everything was to his sister.
"Ren," called Elnan while knocking on Rendra's room door.
Shortly afterwards Rendra opened the door and showed her flat face.
"Can I come in?" ask Elnan.
Without answering, Rendra opened his room wide, indicating that he would allow Elnan to enter.
Elnan sat down on the sofa and asked Rendra to sit there.
"I want to ask you something important."
"Ask me."
"You and Aura are really dating?" ask Elnan.
Rendra slightly furrowed her brows as if there was something strange about her brother.
"Why ask? Doesn't my sister know the answer?"
"Haish!" getting an answer like that makes Elnan anxious himself to Rendra.
"I know Aura's work. If you and Aura are really dating, I just want you to know what her background is. If you and Aura were just pretending. Please explain to me the reason and I'm just asking to get rid of the pretense. Because I can see that mom really likes Aura. Do you want to make my mom sad?"
Rendra actually did not want to answer Elnan's question. However, Elnan instead ruined his plan. Rendra would not want to explain everything.
"Me and Aura are just pretending to be dating. Initially just because he wanted to make mama happy and make mama not affected by the incitement of Kaila who began to approach mama again. But, somehow getting here I also feel comfortable with him," replied Rendra honestly from his heart.
"Then, that means you already know Aura's job as a paid woman. Aren't you afraid that someone willfully damage your image? The work of paid women was so bad among the people. You know that, right?"
Rendra nodded.
"I knew. But Aura is not what you think. She is indeed a paid woman but not to satisfy the lust of a striped man" replied Rendra.
"If you've said that. I trust Ren. But still if you really want to realize your relationship with Aura, there are many parties who hate especially with Aura's work. Please think carefully. As a brother I just want you to be happy and not hurt in the least."
Rendra who had been advised by Elnan seemed to think a little. But come to think of it anyway, he did not care about Aura's work that paid women. He could make Aura stop working there.
"I just want to say that. The decision is in your hands."
Elnan came out of Rendra's room. Meanwhile, Rendra now moved position by laying his body on the sofa.
"Is that a woman to be a paid woman? Why does everyone think bad without knowing the reason why people choose the job? I know Aura, even though she hasn't known him for too long."
Rendra closed her eyes. The shadow that was visible at that moment was an extremely sweet Aura smile. Rendra immediately gasped and woke up from the fall.
"God! Why am I even thinking about it?"
Rendra went to the bathroom to wash her face. As he washed his face in the sink, he suddenly saw the shadow of Aura behind him.
Again Aura, Rendra shook her head. Now Aura had truly entered his mind.
"It looks like I'm drinking less water to the point of thinking this weird thing."
His feet stepped out of the bathroom. When he saw the glass on his desk empty, Rendra went down from his room to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, Rendra met his mother who was cooking instant noodles.
"You want to take what Ren?" ask Naya.
"Drink ma. Rendra was thirsty" replied Rendra.
"Why are you cooking noodles last night when you had dinner?" ask Rendra.
"It's not for mom. But your papa asked to be made. He said to accompany her to the movie," replied Naya.
"Oh, so. I'm going to the room again ma."
"Ren, wait a minute. Please convey to Aura to come again to the event arisan mama the day after tomorrow," Pinta Naya.
"Yes, later Rendra said to Aura," replied Rendra then walked away from the kitchen.
Arriving at the room, Rendra smiled, so he had a reason to send a message to Aura.
My mom wants you to come home the day after. He said there was another arisan.
Messages were sent. Rendra was restless waiting for a reply from Aura. He went back and forth in his room because he could not get a reply. He has even changed positions several times. Just waiting for a message. Until finally Rendra fell asleep so long waiting.

Lately, Alin felt that her brother looked happy. In fact, he also felt a little surprised because his brother no longer wears sexy clothes even though he would meet his client.
"Are you no longer a paid woman?" muttered Alin while making toast.
"If so, I'm very happy. I can't bear to see my brother insulted constantly."
Suddenly Aura came still wearing her nightgown. He sat down at the table and looked at his sister.
"Why do you see I'm so rich?" ask Alin who is astonished.
"Sir has rarely talked to you lately. Brother left before you left. Brother comes home when you're asleep sometimes. Sorry yes," said Aura.
Though in reality, although rarely chatting, Alin likes to peek at what her brother does. He just wanted to see his brother's honest feelings when he found out he was asleep. And Alin looked at his brother who was always smiling.
"It's okay brother. I know big brother is busy," replied Alin then put the toast in front of Aura.
"Eat brother!" ask Alin.
Aura happily ate the toast and enjoyed the taste. Tasteful, and according to his tongue.
"Oh, yes, now you've started your apprenticeship. Internship at which company?" ask Aura.
"In one of the branches of the Kav Corp company in the field of fashion," replied Alin.
Aura also nodded in understanding. Because he knew it was the company led by Rendra.
"Spirit!" aura encouraged her sister. Alin smiled in response to that.
Both had breakfast while talking about many things.

Elsewhere, Kaila is very agitated because her finances are completely depleted. If only Rendra had not blocked his credit card, it was possible that Kalia could still buy whatever she wanted because for a year ago he had actually lived with Rendra's money despite breaking up with the man.
"Damn! Where should I find money? Doni is unreliable in money matters. I've always felt less with Doni's money alone" Kaila said.
"Why so noisy? It's still morning baby!" said a man who was beside Kaila who was none other than Doni.
"I need money, I want care baby, see my skin has started to dull, look also my face has started to appear bruised," said You complain to Doni.
"Then you remain beautiful in my eyes dear," said Doni while hugging Kalia.
"Oh!"
There's a sense of excitement and annoyance. Happy to be praised by Doni. Angry because apparently the man he loves is indeed unreliable in financial affairs.
