“You're back? Mama was just about to tell someone to pick you up,” said Wendy when she saw Angel and Dima coming together.
“So I forgot to bring this, so I picked it up in the car. It's from mama, hopefully Dima will recover quickly,” said Angel. He ignored Dima and approached the smiling Aunt Wendy.
Wendy took the parcel and hugged Angel warmly. I haven't seen Angel in a long time. But the smile on his face instantly disappeared when he saw Dima's pale face.
“You why, Honey. Your face is pale.” Wendy rushed over.
“Ma, I want to go tomorrow!”
“What?” Wendy took her statement. He shook his head as he slightly did not understand Dima's intentions. But when he finally understood the meaning of the words, he asked once more to be sure. “You sure?”
“Ya!”
“Alright! If you've made a decision, Mama will arrange it for you.”
“Go? Go where?” ask Angel. He didn't realize he was interfering. He was used to it because Dima would always answer his questions. But not this time. Dima did not even look at him.
“I have to go back to rest,” says Dima.
“Mama will take you ... ”
Dima smiles towards his mother, “I will return by myself.”
“Alright then.”
Dima looked past his mother towards the red-haired girl who was sitting awkwardly in the living room, “Thanks, Paula, for visiting me. I feel better now.”
“Um, Yes. Equally,” Paula replied a little scared. I don't know why the thank you sounds like a formality. Because with a single look, he knew Dima was not doing well. Especially with the confusing conversation just now, the atmosphere in this living room immediately turned awkward and stiff.
After saying thank you, Dima immediately turned back to his room.
“Um, Dima. What do you mean by go?” ask Angel again. He was not used to being ignored by Dima.
Dima who had walked away for a moment stopped his steps, but not to turn back towards Angel and answer his question. Dima stopped because he saw his papa in front of him.
“You've met your friend?”
Dima nodded, “I'm a little tired, I'll rest.”
“Oh! Papa will take you,” Theo said. He saw his son looking pale. To be honest, Dima probably braced himself to meet Angel.
Dima seemed to shake his head and continued his steps.
“Let me,” Wendy said. “You come with Angel. You guys haven't seen each other in a long time,” continued Wendy.
Without waiting for her husband's answer, Wendy immediately rushed towards Dima. He felt his son needed himself to calm him down. He suspects Dima's sudden decision to leave tomorrow, relating to Dima's conversation with Angel just now, and he believes the conversation is not going well.
As they argue, something seems to be happening. And they only realized it shortly after Angel shouted.
“Dimaaa ... ”
And the sound of the body hitting the hard floor accompanied Angel's hysterical cry.
Time seemed to stop for a moment with Angel's sudden scream. Everyone in the room was transfixed and stunned but not fast enough to respond. They can only look between the screaming Angel and what Angel is shouting, namely Dima.
In the next second when they came to their senses, Dima had been lying unconscious on the floor before Theo and Wendy could save him.
The atmosphere was instantly muddled by the hysterical screams of Wendy and the servants.
Theo who was closer to Dima, rushed straight towards him. He held his son in his lap and tried to wake him up.
His hands shook violently, stammering Theo asked the people around him to call the doctor.
In the midst of the chaos, Wendy took the time to ask Angel to come back. He decides he will stop everything about Angel from his son's life.
Quite simply he owes Angel a debt of gratitude for saving Dima as a child, and he does not expect Angel to play around with his son's life when he grows up.

It all happened so quickly and by this time Angel and Paula were already on their way back to their dormitory.
Angel still gnashed the body of Dima who was helpless in a sling Om Theo.
Is he too cruel? Is Dima really sick from it? Is Dima going to be okay? Is Dima really going to stay away from him? Inner wonders.
Angel wasn't sure, but he had to strengthen himself. It's for Dima too!
Paula glanced at Angel beside her who was daydreaming.
“You okay?” ask Paula. Yeah, even if he knew Angel wouldn't be okay.
“Yes, there you go!”
“About Dima where to go, huh?” Paula refers to the talk of Dima and her mother.
Angel shakes.
“Looks like your conversation didn't end well,” Paula wanted to curse her mouth for being pretentious inquisitive. But he couldn't help but be curious when it happened right in front of him.
Angel sighed, “what was my action wrong?” tanyakanya.
Paula who did not understand sat down her problem could only answer it with an impartial neutral answer.
“I don't think it's always, sometimes it depends from whose point of view. An act can have different interpretations based on the viewpoints of different people.”
“I did it for the good of Dima.”
“But to be honest, Dima looks tormented because of that.”
“Yes. I can see it. I was tormented when I saw him like that. But I have to do it. I want Dima to be aware.”
“It seems like it was too cruel for him. I thought you liked each other. I mean, you guys seem to like each other.”
“Is that so? I don't think so.”
“How, yes! I always see you smiling when you are with him. You talk about it often too. I thought you subconsciously loved her.”
Angel melengos, he disagrees with Paula. He was just used to being with Dima.
Perhaps that is what makes Angel unaware that the snot boy is now an adult! And the monkey's love turned into an obsession.
When Angel did not reply, Paula also took the initiative to end her conversation. But before that, he wanted his friend to know what he saw the moment when Dima fainted, “You saw the expression of Dima's parents when Dima fainted? Really painful! I can't imagine how their hearts feel.”
Angel mencelos. He missed the expressions of Aunt Wendy and Om Theo because he only focused on Dima.
Although spicy, Paula's speech has a point.
“Ah! I'm stressed out!” lamented Angel. Today was hard for him.
“Hahaha .. sorry, I made your mood worse. Okay, we'll be here any minute. You can take a warm bath to relieve stress.”
“Uh, I hope you're right!”
