For the next three months, while Aji was busy, preparing for his departure to Germany, Jeny seemed to distance herself from her brother. There was only a reason, why she did not want to meet and be with her brother.


Aji, instead of not knowing if his sister is away from him. But, he just pretended not to know. He also wanted, so that his sister could study independently, and not depend on him continuously. Although sometimes, Aji also feels guilty. As if there was something lacking, when there was no Jeny near him.


"Jen," Aji scolds her adek, in the morning before leaving for school. They passed by on the stairs.


"Ma. Jeny's gonna take the driver. Papa has metting early in the morning. Let it not be too late" cried Jeny, telling her mother, who was helping her aunt prepare breakfast.


Papa Gilang, who was already at the dining table, turned a glance, then said, "Your brother Aji, can deliver. He's free today."


Jeny, turned her head towards her brother Aji, who was walking towards all of them, who was ready for breakfast. Aji simply nodded, as a sign that what her father said was true.


"Tumben," said Jeny cynically to her brother.


"Jen," rebuked Oma Rossa, who heard Jeny's words in a cynical tone.


"Hmmm..."


Jeny, snorted coldly and said nothing more. He started breakfast and did not say as usual, as his twin brothers chattered cheerfully.


"Vero, don't take all the air. For Me!"


Biyan and Vero scramble the fried shrimp flour. Usually, Jeny goes fighting. But this morning he was silent without going to serve his two twin brothers.


"Be careful, dear" said Mama Cilla, to Aji and Jeny, as the two said goodbye.


"Yes Ma" Aji replied, kissing her mother's hands and cheeks.


"Just get along, same. Let's not keep sinking like that!" mama Cilla's message, asking Aji, to soften Jeny's slightly stubborn heart.


"Doain ya Ma, let Jeny no longer angry with Aji."


Cilla nodded and smiled at the child. He believes, if this time Aji is also able to make Jeny no longer cold, and angry because of the plan of his brother's departure, to Germany.

Aji drives the car at medium speed. He wanted to start a conversation with his sister, Jeny, who had just been quiet and pretended to be busy with her handphone.


"Jen. Don't you like it when you leave?" aji asked, breaking the silence between the two of them.


"Just go. What do I care," replied Jeny flatly.


Aji took a long breath. He didn't know what to say to make his sister understand.


"Jeny still wants to be a model?" aji asked, remembering that long ago, when Jeny was still a Children's Park, she loved to be photographed. In fact, Jeny had won a child demonstration contest between schools Taman Kanak, during the commemoration of HUT Jakarta.


"Make what? No Brother will be his audience as well" Jeny replied scowlingly.


"I can't see from the video uploaded via the internet. Or when you have the opportunity to participate in a contest, you can also see it in a strict way," replied Aji explained.


"Should ya, brother go to Germany? Many universities in Indonesia are no less advanced and also good."


"Jen. My brother did not stay there. If it is finished, you will also return to Indonesia. For you and also for your mother," replied Aji giving an explanation to his sister.


Aji grabs Jeny's hand with one hand, while the other still holds the wheel.


"You must be able to master yourself and your heart. Nor can you be there forever for you. One day, you will have your own close friends, boyfriend, husband and family. It's impossible to be with Brother constantly."


Jeny seemed to be puzzling at all of Aji's words. He did not want to be far from his brother.


"Jeny doesn't need a boyfriend, a husband or anything. Jeny just wants to be with Brother!" jeny shouted with a groan. He tried to let go of the hand held by Aji.


"Bad brother!"


Jeny was crying. He doesn't know what he's feeling right now. But for sure, he does not want to be far from his brother, Aji.


These past few days, she had indeed been cold and stayed away from Aji. But, it was just that his heart felt lonely and sick. He doesn't know what's wrong with himself.


Aji is the same. She did not know what her sister, Jeny, was feeling. That is why, he strongly opposed the prohibition of his papa, so as not to follow the selection of scholarship acceptance to Germany.


Aji's reason, not only because of her dreams as a child. But there is another reason that makes him desperate, which is the wrong feeling between Jeny and himself.


Aji does not want, Jeny's feelings continue to grow, in the wrong circumstances. All of this is wrong, and Aji should be able to stop him.


"Sister promise. Will always call or email you if you're in Germany" Aji said, trying to calm Jeny's mind.


"I'd like to ask you to go to school in Germany too!" jeny said in a high tone. She felt disappointed, as she could not stop her brother's intentions.


"Yes. Its alright. But you have to promise, study diligently and not make mama worry. Yep!"


"Yes Brother. Jeny promised," Jeny replied with a smile, looking at her brother who was also looking at her as well.


Finally, the two of them linked the little finger to the symbol of their promise both.


After that, the two of them laughed happily at the journey they had taken along the road leading to Jeny's school.

Jeny was aghast and conscious from her dream. He was sleeping in a sitting state.


Jeny was reading a book and didn't know if she was sleeping. He also did not know why he suddenly dreamed about his memories with his brother, in the end.


Jeny felt that everything was unfair to her. He was also dissatisfied with his destiny this time around. Her heart and feelings were broken, when she saw the news delivered by the airline, which brought her brother to Germany, experienced a plane hijacking. Even more tragically, the plane was blown up above without any prior negotiation.


Although the bomb detonated in the engine of the aircraft was low-power, but the damage was caused, making the aircraft unbalanced and eventually still glide, freefalling into the open sea.


None of the passengers and crew survived. Many passengers have no known identity. There are even, which live pieces of certain body parts.


The search for victims, not only in the Indian sea, the location of the plane crash, but also to the countries around it.


But Aji's body, still not found, even though only a piece of meat.Just his glasses, which were found with his luggage in the suitcase and bag. It also all broke down.
