Apology ...

" How did you meet Anita ? " Tanya Rahmi broke the silence.

" Oya, I haven't told you. Before her I apologize, Anita's accident can be said for my carelessness as well.

We met by accident. Dion and I were going to buy something at the minimarket across the highway. When I was busy looking for my wallet that had fallen in the car, it turned out that Dion crossed first. When it came to the end, a vehicle was speeding up and almost hit Dion. Someone saved her quickly, but instead she herself was dragged down and fell.

I was also shocked to find out that person was Anita. Soon Andy and I brought her here. Again I'm sorry. " Answer Hendra explained.

" There's no need to apologize because it wasn't your fault. Maybe this is the fate of Anita. The important thing is that he is safe and hopefully healed soon. " Rahmi said.

" You don't have to worry, Anita will recover. I'll do anything for her recovery. " Sahut Ferdy.

" You don't have to do it because I'm going to do it. " Rahmi said.

" Why did you ban me ? I did it not only because I was responsible for her accident, but also because she was my daughter. I'm her father, so I have to take responsibility for her.

" Oya, you remember it turns out that you still have a daughter. I thought you'd forgotten about her all along. " Rahmi's words made Hendra's heart feel pierced to make him speechless.

" If there's nothing you want to talk about anymore, I'm gonna go in. " Say Rahmi standing up a few minutes later.

" Wait !! There's more I want to say. " Said Hendra while reaching Rahmi's hand to make Rahmi sit back.

" I want to apologize for all my mistakes. I'm sorry I haven't been able to make you happy as long as we're married. I'm sorry I hurt you so much and made you suffer in the last years of our marriage. And I'm sorry that for 9 years I've been ignoring you and Anita. I'll explain everything.

Besides making me a drunk. He also introduced me to a woman, Sukma, the mother of Dion. Sukma set me up while I was drunk. She took me to the hotel and pretended like I was fucking her.

She claimed to be pregnant and demanded that I marry her. I rejected her because I felt like I never did. At the same time, I was shocked when I arrived to get a subpoena from a religious court. I really want to fight for you because I still love you so much. But once I think back, you'll only suffer if you're with me. Moreover, Sukma threatened to report me to the police if he did not comply. I married her and moved to xxx town after we split up. There I met a friend and I worked on him while in college. I also always send letters and a little money for Anita's school fees every month, but I only found out just before Sukma died that he had taken back all the money and the letter from the person I told you to send it to. He also threatened the man not to tell me. He doesn't want me to be in touch with you guys anymore, even though it's just by letter. He was also angry because during our marriage I never touched him at all. I'm just doing my role as a father to Dion and not a husband to her. Even I just found out the reality that hurts. Shortly before he died, he confessed that Dion was not my son. Before knowing me, she was already impregnated by her boyfriend who did not want to take responsibility. That's why he framed me into marrying him so that his big family's good name wouldn't get tarnished and for Dion to have a father. I was very disappointed and angry at him at that time. Even if he's a man, maybe I'll beat him to death. Because of his actions I have sacrificed a child and a wife that I love so much for a woman that I do not love at all and for a child that is not my biological child. But what could I do to a woman who was dying. I can't do anything to her. I can only accept all of these new realities with regret.

At the end of her life, she apologized to me and also asked me to say sorry to you.

I didn't tell Dion about any of that. Let him keep thinking that I am his papa. He was innocent, he was just a victim of the depravity of his two parents. I will also continue to take care of him because he has no one else. Even his real father was like anything I don't know.

I didn't mean to defend myself by telling you all this, because for whatever reason it was all my fault. I just wanted to apologize to you. Please forgive me, my permission to correct my mistakes all this time.

I want to love Anita and take good care of her, making up for the time I couldn't give her.

And ... If you're willing. I want to come back to you, too. I want us to be together like we used to be. I promise I'll never hurt you again. I also promise, I will make you both happy. " Say Hendra while holding Rahmi's hand.

Hendra was very hopeful of forgiveness from Rahmi. He also desperately wants his family to be together again like before.

" I didn't expect a woman to be able to do such a heinous thing. I thought you were with her because you didn't love me anymore.

Although I filed for divorce, but deep down I hope you will reject her. I hope you still want to hold on to our household. But what ... You just take her for granted. Even as soon as the court judgment was over you immediately left us alone and left with the woman without a word. I hate you, I'm disappointed in you. " Say Rahmi while sobbing.
