Celia breezed into her apartment while grumbling. The woman was really upset by Chan. Although aware Lea did not make a mistake, but he was still upset with Lea.
‘I don't like Chan yet, but I don't accept being treated like this. He was making fun of me for preferring that woman. Bad taste also turned out!’ Celia muttered with a grin.

In her room, Lea was watching a photo that recently stole the public's attention. It never occurred to him if he would be the main character in the photo. The dress that Lea used made her slightly similar to Celia. Both have the same height, but Lea is thinner than Celia who is proportional body as a model. The jacket that covered Lea's head as well as the photo taken from the back further made the two like the same person.
‘Ah... I just remember, how did Chayra react to seeing this photo? She's not aware of this dress, is she?’ Ask Lea to herself while enlarging the photo on the phone screen by pressing it.
‘Will Chayra be angry if she finds out that she is me?! Akh... why is it like this?’ Monologue Lea again.
Lea placed the device carelessly on the mattress, then walked slowly to the door that continued to be knocked from the outside.
“Come, eat” Dayyan said after door slightly opened.
“Eum..” Lea replied as she followed Dayyan from behind.
The sisters ate quietly, none of them opened their voices until dinner ended. Lea was about to put the old dinner plate into the kitchen and wash it, but her steps were stopped by Dayyan.
“What is the news that is crowded right now?” Ask Dayyan.
Lea shrugs both shoulders, “Entahlah. Why are you suddenly so concerned with gossip?”
“I asked because Brother Chan is the person I know” replied Dayyan.
Lea did not comment, so sauntered into the kitchen to wash the dishes.
‘Kukira sister will be honest’ Gumam Dayyan slowly, until inaudible by Lea.
***The next day***
“Young people today are indeed diligent looking for money, ya” Said a middle-aged woman on Lea.
Although his hand was busy arranging the steamed sponge into a box, but he still served customers who invited him to talk.
“This is all for the sake of a better future” Lea said with a smile.
“Surely your parents are proud to have a diligent daughter. It's a pity..my son is crazy about six people who don't even know if he lives”
Lea frowned, “I mean..”.
Not finished Lea talk, the middle-aged woman is already flinching again, “My son is a fan of SUN, a boy group that often appears on television”
Lea nodded her head, “So far... SUN is a good boy group, but why don't you like it?” Ask Lea curiously.
“Yes, they are good. Because my daughter idolized them so much, I also followed the group. The problem is, one of their members is being rumored to be dating and it makes my daughter cry all day because she idolizes the dating personnel, I forgot her name” Light the middle-aged woman.
Lea smiled awkwardly, so she felt guilty. As soon as the worry arises, he fears that his relationship with Chan will be opposed by many.
“Why dream? Are you done wrapping it up, son?”
The middle-aged woman's question made Lea realize, then swiftly gave the woman two boxes of steamed sponge.
After the store was quiet, Lea checked her phone for wanting to see news about Chan. Since his picture was on a picnic with Chan circulated, he so often check the news. And sure enough, Lea was again surprised by the news that had only appeared an hour ago. This time, the public was again horrendous with Celia's denial. The woman claimed to be pretending to be the woman in the photo because she wanted to protect Chan. As a result of Celia's actions, Chan got blasphemy because he was considered a playboy. Although many defended the man, but not a few also made bad comments. In fact, Chan fans and Celia fans are the most sought-after news on social media.
Lea rubbed her face roughly, ‘Actually, what was she thinking?!’ Annoyed annoyed.
Lea's eyes condense reading the bad comments about Chan, not even a few people who also drag the name of the Chan-owned company.
‘Is sister okay? What should I do to help sister?’ Mumbles Lea quietly.
The footsteps of someone made Lea aghast, she quickly turned to the source of the sound.
“Chay... Why can't your phone be reached? I'm worried” said Lea. He became relieved after seeing Chayra come to his shop.
“Who are you worried about? Me or brother Chan?” Ask Chayra.
The cynical gaze of Chayra made Lea silent a thousand languages.
“Why not answer?” Ask Chayra again.
“A..me...”
“Actually, do you consider me a friend or not? I'm very disappointed in you. Ever since the first news came out, I've known it was you. The dress you wore.. It was my birthday present, right?! I have been deliberately silent since yesterday because I want you to be honest” said Chayra with a disappointed look.
“Chay. I don't intend to hide it from you. But... You know, I feel inappropriate for your brother because of my status, I want to wait until...”.
As if he didn't want to give his best friend a chance to talk, Chayra cut out Lea's explanation, “Always the social status that you make excuses for. I'm sick of hearing that. I'm very disappointed that you hid something this big from me” Chayra said, then walked away. Meanwhile, Lea was only silent while repeatedly wiping her flowing tears.
Somewhere else...
Chan paced around like an iron while grasping his handle. He was upset that Celia could not be contacted. Actually, Chan wanted to see Celia directly, but Mr. Sugara and Arsel forbade her from leaving the SUN house because it was being targeted by journalists.
‘Akh... I'm annoyed if I just stay here!’ Um Chan, his face flushed red with anger.
Zhi approached Chan, gave the man a can of soft drink, and sat down next to him. “Do not get emotional in the face of something, relax” said Zhi.
The four new members joined SUN's two youngest members. They were also annoyed at the furore created by Celia.
“I'll sue that strange woman!” Khai.
Dza pat Khai's arm, “Kak..”
“Because of the work, I also became dragged!” Khai said again. Khai is upset that many media outlets are returning to discuss his relationship with Emira.
“Pak Arsel is taking care of this problem, you calm down” said Ez while patting Chan slowly.
“Have you contacted Lea?” Ask Zal.
Chan shook his head, “I dare not contact him. I'm afraid if Celia talks to the media about Lea” Chan said slowly.
Khai stared fixedly at Chan, then said, “Don't worry, I'll take care of the woman. You just go with Lea. He must be anxious”
“What will sister do?!” Chan asked curiously, the four members were equally curious.
“You don't need to know, let me take care of this. I'm getting sick of seeing him acting” Revealed Khai.
The five members just nodded their heads, fully trusting Khai's words as brother and SUN's leader.
