Alina knew that her sister was talking to herself must be talking to her own world so she began to get used to the behavior of her cousin's sister, “after 11pm I better go to bed quickly,” after listening to Hanson's words the girl in purple shirt glanced at the wall clock and sure enough already showed at 11 p.m.

“Sister Alin I slept first ya.” Nadia.

“Yaudah.” Answer Alina. Nadia went straight to the bathroom to wash her face and brush her teeth after she finished using night cream and lotion and then went to bed immediately because she had prayed earlier.

After finishing breakfast Hanson wore his military uniform with a badge on the right and next to the arm of course Nadia helped put on a uniform for her husband, lastly Nadia put her military cap on Hanson's head.
