Will Still Love You


Pinky was discharged from the hospital three days ago. There was not much he did inside the house, just sitting in a wheelchair staring at the screen of his laptop. The situation is now not possible for every day to come to his restaurant. This will make it difficult, it will also trouble the people around him.


Tok tok tok tok


The house assistant opened the door. Pinky's eyes are wide-eyed when she learns that Arion has suddenly come to her house. What if the Papa finds out? What if the father is angry? He was nervous, his hands were cold. While Arion he still smiled sweetly right at the door of his house as if he could make sure nothing would happen to him.


"Ma-u are you here? Papa must have ...." He couldn't continue because Rey's footsteps were approaching him.


Pinky looked back, and her mother and sister approached her. As for Arion, he just entered without being told.


"I'm here to marry you" cried Arion. His voice echoed in every corner of the house.


Pinky's nervous, "Papa, don't hit Arion again!" Pinky's eyes glazed over as she held Rey's hand.


Rey chuckles at hearing it. "Who's gonna hit him?" Pinky's forehead wrinkled.


"Aero .. take Arion out of this house before Papa gets angry!"


Aero. "Arion's here to marry you, sister, what's wrong with him?"


"Aero what are you talking about?" Pinky holds back her Papa's hand trying to contain Rey's anger at Arion.


Rey squatting aligns her body with Pinky's. He stroked her daughter's head gently. "Papa bless you guys." One sentence that became a coolant in Pinky's heart. She shed her tears, "Have it, don't cry! Forgive the old Papa! Papa's selfish. Papa wicked. Pops ...."


"The Father will love you until any time. For Papa you are not a child continued Papa. For Papa you are Papa's biological child. Papa is very grateful to you, because you are able to unite the love of Papa and Mama. Without you, maybe Papa and Mama wouldn't be like this." Rey paused for a moment to inhale less and less oxygen in her chest.


"Papa knows it hurts, loves without being able to have. Papa used to even staunchly hold it." Rey shed her tears, then stared at Arion. "Arion come!"


Arion walked slowly towards the father and the child. She's aligned herself with Pinky. Rey unites Arion and Pinky's hands. "Papa don't want to be your barrier anymore."


Arion's eyes glazed over hearing it. "I'm sorry, Mom and Dad!"


"Enough Arion! It wasn't your fault. Most importantly now, happy Pinky! I believe in you! Only you men can win his heart since childhood." Rey stroked Pinky's head.


"I'm sorry I blamed you all this time! A child cannot choose who their parents are. But I'm touched by your words, when you can choose, you'll choose me as your parent."


Arion looked down in embarrassment while pulling the curvature line of his lips. Kinan hugged Pinky. Aero hugged him.


"So when are you going to marry my son?"


"Papa, why is it so rushed?" sahut Pinky's. He looked at Arion. "Arion, do you know the truth. My leg ...."


"Sssstttt," Arion touched Pinky's lips with her index finger. "I know, and I'll still love you."


"But .. You're not ashamed." Arion shook his head. Pinky was moved and immediately hugged her.
