If you don't have below illustrated options including "Paragraph Directions" in your InDesign, then you basically don't have Middle Eastern version and you need to follow instructions found in the links below…

Here is an Arabic topic on how to remove and re-install your Adobe product and get full RTL features.

Here is an English discussion on the same.

Thanks for all.

Because I have a trial, older versions are not available for me in the cc .

Is there an alternative way ?

Adobe trial expires in seven days, you need to purchase InDesign in order to get your projects done!

It sounds like you changed the language but perhaps did not then install the Middle East version of InDesign. See Install Hebrew or Arabic versions of InDesign CC and Illustrator CC​. In particular, as noted in the final step on that page, after changing the language in the CC app you must then reinstall InDesign.
