Daffin thought of the best way to tell Aya about that truth. One truth is open, but it is not certain that those who have harmed their father. If Daffin told her now, it would only make her drown more in her pain.
He chose to keep it a secret from Aya, but kept telling it to Arka. Daffin knows that his sister is very worried about Aya, because she likes him. That way Daffin hopes his brother can help him protect Aya and her family.
They continue to deliver drugs on Benny's orders. Especially now that school entry hours are getting reduced because they are approaching the holiday period. Luckily Daffin and Arka were only asked to deliver the ordered goods, not sell. Even if they are caught by the police, maybe the punishment is not as heavy as the dealer or seller.
Haira and her family have also let go of her father. Not so with Aya. He was already suspicious that when Daffin did not reply to his message for several days, it was likely that the person he asked was the same one who was chasing them.
Aya called Daffin and invited him to meet in the afternoon. Since their cake shop is still closed, Aya can wear it to meet with Daffin. But Daffin instead suggested to meet at Rumah Kampung. The house was still safe from the Ketapel's touch, and Aya agreed.
They met when Daffin had finished shipping. Either because it was lucky or just a coincidence, as long as Daffin made a delivery he always escaped the raid that could appear at any time without cue.
"How are you?" ask Aya.
Seeing the girl lower her tone of speech and diction her call from elo to you, Daffin frowned in surprise. He felt like Aya was treating him super well for whatever reason.
"Do you get sick? Why is it so good gini?" kelakar Daffin's.
Aya squinted at the man's answer. Seeing her turn annoying like she used to make Aya smile.
"Why smile? Is something funny?" tanyanya.
"If you have jengkelin gini, you seem to be doing well" replied Aya cynically.
They both laughed despite knowing that the atmosphere had turned awkward. A minute later they were silent to each other. Both of them seemed confused to start the conversation.
"Fin, that guy.. is the same, right?" Finally, Aya opened their conversation.
"Hu uhm" he answered short.
Daffin felt it was impossible to hide the problem any longer. Talking about it now might be the best decision he thought.
"Keep why didn't my bales chat yesterday?" his protest.
Daffin just kept quiet and let out a short breath. I don't want to force him anymore. He tried to shift the subject.
"How do you plan on doing next..?"
"..will you continue to work there?" ask again.
"Should. I have something to look for there. Then about your father." replied Daffin casually.
Aya's eyes suddenly filled with clear circles that were restrained. He felt Daffin was paying attention to him. He was willing to sacrifice himself to help him. Unknowingly he hugged Daffin. Making the young man hold his breath in shock at Aya's actions. More than a minute before Aya finally realized his actions that could make a misunderstanding. He also took off his embrace awkwardly.
"Sorry, I just want to, thank you" he said.
"Oh yeah.."
Daffin is just as awkward. His heart suddenly beat beyond its usual rhythm. He took his breath off but still felt tight according to him. The room temperature in the Village House was suddenly hot for some reason. His face was flushed even though Aya did not see him.
"But what do you mean by looking for something there? What are you looking for?" I began to suspect again.
"There is.." answered Daffin short.
Daffin's answer made him be romanced again by the girl. He told her to be careful, do not do this, do not get back on medication, do not get sick again and many other scolding. But the little thing made Daffin laugh and just agree with all his words.
"Fin, about my father.we live alone.."
"OK, okay, I know." cut Daffin while gently stroking Aya's head.
Again the mood became awkward. Only after that Daffin managed to melt the atmosphere by discussing the plan to find strong evidence that Aya meant.
Daffin thought that they should catch the thugs wet. Because Aya's family didn't do an autopsy. The only evidence is their confession. Therefore they intend to watch the movement of the thugs.
According to Daffin, if they do, and his father is diagnosed with a heart attack, then only one possibility, they are using the drug.
But Aya thought again. If all this is true, what can he do? Can they take the thugs to the police? Or should he let it. They're just high school kids who don't even have the power to fight thugs, especially drug kingpins. Aya's mind became doubtful, all feeling complicated after she thought about it again.

It's been a month since Haira's father left. Unlike her brother who focuses on finding the cause of her father's death, Haira prefers to busy herself with her entertainment activities. Since the school is already off, Haira more often goes to the library or watch movies with Dipa.
That day Haira was walking towards the cake shop to change shifts with her mother. They've been opening it for two days since his father's departure. Her mother is now the backbone of the family. And of course the cost of the school of his three children became the main thought. That's why they opened it up again.
Haira arranged the cake and woven as usual. Her mother's ability to make cakes and bread did decline more to Haira than her eldest son. Aya has a derivative of her father's abilities. He is a very good person to talk in public. Even when SMP Aya had volunteered as a candidate for the chairman of Osis even though he ultimately lost.
However it was only a while that he was in the shop that some people came. They look like young people like Aya and Haira. Some of them were girls dressed as street children.
"Excuse me, we want a kakk message" one of the girls shouted.
"Sorry brother, the message must be at the cashier" Haira said.
The tomboy-clothed girl approached Haira with a sharp look.
"Did you ignore my order?" the girl said with judes.
"No, Brother. But indeed the order must be at the cashier" replied Haira still polite.
The girl approached Haira who was behind the cash register. With a cold gaze, he whispered something in front of Haira's face.
"Heh, tell me you're with your brother, don't you dare to deketin Daffin again"
Haira who did not understand the girl's intentions, simply fell silent. While the children prepare to leave the Haira cake shop while kicking the chairs. But Aya and Daffin had stood behind them.
"Daffiin..."
The girl ran over and hugged Daffin in front of Aya. Daffin showed an expression like he knew the girl. But the look on his face did not seem to like it when hugged by the girl.
"Lo who?" ask Aya.
The girl let go of her embrace and turned to look at where Aya was standing. He pulled Daffin so he wouldn't stand close beside Aya.
"Lo Aya? The girl who cut off Daffin?" cynical jolt.
"Who am I asking?" Aya replied to him in a high tone.
"Gue Daffin's girlfriend!" shouted the girl named Miss.
