Boy's unconscious body was brought in by several guards into the mansion. Lian who saw her son on the papah immediately approached.
"What's this about? What happened to Boy?"
"Sorry, Madam. It looks like Mr. Boy is drunk," explained a guard.
"God! Quickly take her to her room!" lian's Word.
Arriving in the room, Boy's body stretched out onto the bed. Two guards who brought Boy resigned to Lian.
"Wait a minute! Did he go home alone?" ask Lian.
"No, Mistress. A girl brought him here."
"A girl? Who?"
"Sorry, I don't know. Then excuse me, madam."
"Yes, yeah. Thank you, sir."
Lian looked back at her oldest son who was already asleep.
"What happened to you, son? Why are you being like this?" Lian took off the shoes and suit wrapped around Boy's body.
"Why else is he?" Roy suddenly goes into Boy's room.
"Mas, I feel like I've failed at being a mother. Look at our son, Mum! Our proud son is ruined because of a woman. I'm not willing, Mom!" Lian shook her head quickly.
"Easy! Boy is an adult. He has the right to decide his own future. He chose this path. We can only pray for it." Roy rubbed Lian's trembling back.
"Mom and Dad still have me!" Nathan came to Boy's room.
"Nathan?" Lian rounded her eyes.
"Don't you guys have one more kid besides Brother Boy? Why do you always grieve at the thought of one child who always throws a tantrum?"
"Honey, it's not like that, son. Of course Mama loves you very much too." Lian approached Nathan.
"Mama take it easy. I won't let Papa and Mama down."
Roy smiled proudly at Nathan. "Aren't you going to intern at the Avicenna Group? Papa will prepare everything for you."
"Yes, Pa. But I haven't made a proposal yet. Maybe in about two weeks."
"Tell me if you need anything, son!" Roy patted Nathan's shoulder.
"Yes, Pa. Oh yeah, it's night. Papa and Mama should rest. I think Boy's brother will be back tomorrow. Excuse me. Good night." Nathan passed from Boy's room.
Lian and Roy are staring at Nathan's departure.
"We're guilty of her, Mas. All this time we only thought about Boy. We ignore if we also have one more jewel. This is a slap for me, Mommy." Lian could no longer hold back her tears.
"Don't blame yourself. There is no point in regretting what happened. We have to fix it. Be assured that everything can be fixed." Roy took Lian in his arms.
"Yes, Mum."

The next day, Aleya tidied up her books that she would bring to campus. His heart was still unsettled after last night Rion came and left with a different look.
Aleya decides to call Rion's mobile number but turns out to be inactive. Aleya began to be overwhelmed with anxiety. But as much as possible he thinks positively.
"Maybe Rion's sister is treating a patient. Come on, I'd better call you later."
Aleya exited the room then called for an online taxi. Before long a car came and confirmed that Aleya had booked a taxi.
.
.
.
Three hours passed very quickly. Aleya exited the classroom and grabbed her phone to contact Rion. I don't know why since last night there wasn't a single message that Rion sent him.
Aleya started to worry. It's like calling Dion to know what happened to Rion and Boy yesterday. Aleya felt that something was going on between them.
Aleya panicked because again Rion's phone was off. He decides to meet Rion at the hospital.
Aleya walked quickly towards the campus gate. While walking he fiddled with his phone ordering a taxi online. Aleya stood in front of the campus gate while waiting for her booked taxi to arrive.
Without Aleya guessing at all, a luxurious car stopped right in front of her. A tall beautiful woman got down from the car and approached Aleya.
"You're Aleya?" ask the beautiful woman to Aleya.
"Yes. What's up?"
THE PLAQUE!
A slap landed on Aleya smooth cheek.
"Basic bitch! You can still live a quiet life after destroying everything, huh!" shouted the beautiful woman who was none other than Natasha.
"Sir Tasha!" Nathan saw the violent scene and immediately walked over to Aleya.
"What did sister do? It's a public place! Don't make a fuss here!"
"Good job! So, this bitch also snared you, Nathan! Isn't it enough he took Boy from me, huh?!"
"Stop, Brother! It's the brother who made Brother Boy stay away. Don't blame others for the mistakes you made!" Nathan won't lose.
"You!" Natasha almost injures Nathan but is soon prevented by Sean.
"Let's go, Tasha! Don't make the mess here!" Sean pulls Natasha's arm and takes her away from there.
Nathan examined Aleya's state of sculpting by holding back tears.
"You okay? Better come with me! It's not good to be a spectacle for people here. Come on!" Nathan had Aleya's body get into his car.
......***......
Nathan takes Aleya to a cafe. He felt sorry to see Aleya. Aleya's self-esteem must have felt trampled after what Natasha had done to her.
"You okay? Say something!" said Nathan.
Aleya just nodded.
"I treat your wounds!" bargain Nathan.
"no need. It's just a small wound" Aleya replied.
Before long a waiter brought Nathan's order.
"Drink! It's warm chocolate. May your heart get better soon."
Without answering Aleya immediately took a sip bit by bit of a cup of warm chocolate in her hand.
"Are you waiting for Rion's brother?"
Aleya shook her head. "He can't be contacted."
"Eh? Did something happen to you?"
Aleya shook her head. "I guess something happened to him and your brother."
"Is that why Tasha's sister did this to you?"
Aleya turned her face away. "I don't know what my mistake was. Maybe I'm being too selfish with no regard for other people's feelings."
"Do you love Rion's sister?" ask Nathan.
Aleya fell silent.
"Do you love my brother?" ask Nathan again.
"Eh?" Aleya showed a different reaction. Nathan knew there was something between Aleya and her brother. But their taste is hindered by Boy and Natasha's marriage.
"No need to answer. I'm not forcing you. Whatever happens to you and my brother, I can only pray for the best. Forgive Tasha's rude attitude towards you."
Aleya smiled. He did not expect that Nathan was very mature in dealing with problems.
Aleya's phone rang. He was very happy because he thought it was Rion who called.
"Sir Dion?" muttered Aleya then answered the call.
"Hello, sis..."
"Aleya, sorry to interrupt. Is Rion with you?"
"Eh? No, Sis. I'm not with him. What's wrong?"
"Since last night he didn't come home. He was not in his apartment either. I thought he'd meet you."
"No, sis. I also called his phone but it's not active."
"alright. If you manage to contact him, please let me know immediately."
"Yes, fine. Brother Dion, what is this really about? What happened to Rion's brother and Boy's brother?"
Dion seemed to be breathing.
"Then they fought. But after that I don't know what happened to them because I asked Rion to leave."
Aleya closed her mouth in disbelief. Guilt now engulfs his heart and mind.
"What should I do now?" aleya muttered with closed eyes.
...B E R S A M B U N G...
*I'm also confused Aleya, what should I do with you, he he he
...Good night, All.....
