LIGHT IN YOUR EYES (Light In Your Eyes)
The Roots of Revenge (Revision)

This morning a different atmosphere happened at Octa's house. A new sun was emerging from the east when the bell of his house rang. And to his surprise both of Rian's parents stood behind the front door of his house.

"The vian? It's you, right? "

Octa was confused about what to behave when the mistress of the Megardante family was expressing questions that he had never expected before. Octa simply fell silent and made the middle-aged woman in front of him unable to resist sobs. A hug from mistress Megardante made Octa's body sculpt.

"You know this is you, you can't be wrong. "

And in the end Octa gave up on staying cool to cover up reality. Rian had walked away from them and Octa had no reason to be so cowardly anymore. He should not be afraid of facing the hatred of his sister. He's evil? I don't know, what in everyone's view.

"Mah"

Finally the word came out of his mouth with tears and hugs. Mr. Megardante approached them and embraced the two men affectionately.

"Sorry Vian who can never be honest . "

The mama shook her head.

"No, Honey. You're not wrong, you must have seen everything, right? You must be afraid of Rian's reaction, right? Sorry you had to make you see the big mistake we made. Maafin. "

"Rian never got anything wrong, mah. Why are you guys doing that long? Five years Vian noticed Rian, he was the one who liked to joke the most as long as we were friends. Why are you destroying him from the inside? "

Octa looked at his parents with a gaze full of pain and disappointment. Recalling all the witty laughter and raunchy Rian who turned out to be a mask for pain left Octa wracked with a great deal of guilt. He was the source of Rian's suffering and happiness all along. Until his cowardly nature really encourages Rian to go carry all his pain.

Octa crouched down in the doorway while bowed with both palms covering his eyes which let out tears profusely. The longing in the corner of his heart turned into disappointment at the attitude of both his parents and the cowardice he was doing.

The mother cried when she saw the great sorrow in her eldest son. The longing between them turned into regret. They're all sorry. Octa is deprived of an honest opportunity and his parents miss the opportunity to end the suffering they themselves made for his son.

Mr. Megardante took his wife into his arms. They all cried when they came back to remember that their regrets were too late. Rian has been gone for good and the happiness that should have been felt when the parents reunited with their long-lost son was instead replaced with a cry. They did not realize that someone's ash iris was staring at them with a satisfied look.

"It's nothing compared to Rian's pain, the suffering he shouldn't get from his own family. Everyone has to pay for my best friend's life. "

...***...

The day went by as the bell went home from school Ran rang loudly. Ran dropped out of his class then sat pensively on the edge of the private elementary school badminton field which is quite elite. The nanny watched him from a distance, trying to give Ran time to sit down to calm down.

Ran who does not talk much is now increasingly difficult to talk to. Since losing her brother, Ran begins to refuse to interact with strangers. Even to his parents, Ran was reluctant to talk.

Ran turned his head as he felt someone walking towards him. His gaze is hard to interpret. A girl in the same school uniform walks up to him.

"You're Rian's sister, right? " Ask the girl as she stood nearby.

"I'm Chelsea's brother, Anggi Ransishie Xilent. " So the girl continued, extending her hand.

Ran still did not respond, he just looked at Arshie with eyes that were difficult to interpret. Without Arshie's approval sitting next to Ran made Ran slightly shift his seat.

"Why do you care? " Tanya Ran after a long time they kept quiet to each other.

Arshie was a little surprised to hear the question from Ran. But then she smiled sweetly.

"Every time I see my moody Chelsea brother, he's my most cheerful brother before Rian's brother dies. But now I never even joke with Chelsea again. Talking is hard. "

Ran looked at Arshie with a questionable look.

"What does this have to do with me? "

"Geez! You still don't understand? " Ask Arshie was not finished.

And Ran shook his head in response.

"So gini, I just saw you stay here and I can immediately know if you must still think of Rian. I don't like seeing people who are constantly sad about someone's death. "

"You don't think Rian's brother over there who won't calm down to see his sister like this? You don't always have to be happy, just don't keep feeling sad. "

There is a corner in Ran's heart that justifies Arshie's advice. But on the other hand Ran instead returned to remember the treatment of both parents against the brother. It feels so hard for Ran to forget

Arshie who saw Ran who was back pensive could only exhale violently while hoping his words made a meaningful change for Ran.

"You know what? You don't know anything, you better shut up. " Ketus Ran who then moved from his seat.

Ran looked angry, he stepped further and further away from where Arshie was sitting. The nanny who saw it immediately caught up with Ran. He was afraid something bad happened to the Young Master Megardante.

The youngest who used to be very patient and friendly to others is now not okay. Ran satirized in every step. The 9-year-old boy was forced into adulthood by circumstances. That innocent mind was forced to accept every hatred from his heart.

Ran stopped his steps when he saw someone who was not foreign. A man with a black hoodie and a matching hat covering his head was standing behind him. Their distance was not too far, only a few meters away.

Ran will initially ignore the person's presence when a name called the mysterious man stops his steps. The mysterious man seemed to be chatting on the phone.

"Rian's dead, I'm grinning because that jerk's suffering. "

Ran stared and then looked full of anger when he heard the next sentence said by the mysterious man.

"Gue's just making a scandal to let Rian's popularity go down, uh but he's in the hospital. "

The mysterious man laughed then walked away. Ran immediately followed the man's steps and made his nanny overwhelmed. Initially Ran can follow well until he loses track.

Ran had intended to scold the man earlier, but now he lost track. The babysitter manages to catch up with her and persuades Ran to go home and in the end Ran chooses to go home.

'That guy looks familiar, he's a killer. He killed my brother, he and all of them were bad people. '

Meanwhile, behind a shady tree, the mysterious man seemed to lean back and laugh. The black mask sealed his identity but the slices of his ashes would be well known to Rian.

"Gue likes this! I will make you all a substitute for my best friend's life. And that kid will be a big help. "

...***...

"Hi, Lexan! "

Alex looked up as the voice called out to him. In the middle room chair looks Ara and Sunny who are staring at him as he goes down the stairs.

"Eh! Why are you here early in the morning? " Task Alex who makes Sunny pout.

"Sunny wants to come to Rian's grave. " Ara answered with eyes that had refocused on television that aired the cartoon series in the morning.

"Where did Sunny know? "

"Ara tell me about auntie. "

Again Ara answered and Sunny just nodded enthusiastically agree Ara's answer. Sunny's eyes sparkled, the girl was too innocent at her age that could no longer be called a toddler although it could still be called a child. Alex breathed out and smiled.

"When do we leave? " Tanya Sunny sounded impatient.

"Sister get ready first, you are the same Ara breakfast first so that you will immediately leave if you are ready. "

Sunny gave her thumbs up and then tugged at the hand of Ara who was still at home sitting on the sofa. As he said, Alex returned to his room to get ready after picking up a loaf of bread from the dining table.

A few minutes later they were out of Alex's house. Sunny and Ara had gotten into Alex's car when Morin arrived.

"Zoya is? "

"Dam, Lex. "

Alex frowned confused at the arrival of his childhood friend in the morning like this. Since Morin became Rian's girlfriend, they rarely visited each other's house. They only occasionally chat together or just vent.

"Tumben is here early in the morning? "

Morin smiled faintly.

"A long time ago, did I not play here until you were surprised? I found Sunny because early in the morning was not at home, said Mama she went along with you. You're going to the tomb, right? Can I come with you? "

Alex smiles.

"Come on! You always have the right to go there, Rian must be seneng. "

Morin smiled sweetly this time and got in the car as well as Alex. Alex's car leads them through a deserted road into a hilly area. The distance of Rian's tomb from Alex's house is quite far and can be reached within 1 hour by car.

A stretch of lavender fields along the roadside accompanied their journey to Rian's tomb. Alex was driving with one hand. The other hand was perched on the windshield and his eyes occasionally glanced at the lavender field.

'Lo loves these flowers, right, Rian? Is that why you want to be guaranteed in this place? This is the last place you shot the movie. This is the first time I've seen you that close. You fight trauma for professionalism. '

Alex parked his car not far from the tomb. They only had to climb a few steps to get to the tomb. Alex smiles when he sees Morin, Sunny and Ara fall asleep. Then gently woke them up. They walked up each step of the stairs.

But, their steps stopped when they saw someone who was storing some lavender flower stalks in Rian's tomb. Although from a distance, Alex and Morin can recognize the owner of the body. Morin looked at the man with teary eyes.

'Gue always knows, you love Rian the most. You've always been the most sincere, Chelsea. Once again I'm wrong, I'm guilty of being a hindrance to you and Rian, I want to apologize to you. But I'm too cowardly. '
