Azizah POVs
I just got off the Grabcar I was riding. I'm finally back here, Hospital.
I was thinking of hiding my departure from Grandpa. But I realize that one day Grandpa will be disappointed in me.
So, I decided to tell Grandpa everything, including this pregnancy. He deserves to know, because this baby is his great-grandson.
I put my things on the reception desk. Coincidentally I've been quite familiar with the nakes in this hospital, because every Sunday I'm going to visit grandfather even sometimes I stay overnight.
Unexpectedly, when I almost arrived at Grandpa's treatment room, I ran into my mother-in-law who hated me so much.
"You again, You again, I admit You are very persistent and diligent in taking my father's heart. But don't expect you'll get a dime later, bitch!'
Deg, my heart hurts. My mother-in-law does have a special nickname for me, whore. Although I have often heard the painful words, my heart still feels pain. But this time my eyes didn't heat up. Maybe because the tears I shed were already in the overdose stage, so the source could have dried up until I could no longer cry.
I kept looking at him calmly, but this time my respect and affection had evaporated. So I just left a cold feeling in my heart.
"Sorry Madam, because I've made a lot of trouble for you and your Son. You don't have to worry, because this is the last time I'm here. You can keep my promise. So I beg of you, let me meet Grandpa to say goodbye"
I saw his forehead wrinkled in surprise. Perhaps because He thought that I would bow and be as friendly as ever. No. gabe. I've changed. I'm no longer the idiot and short-sighted Azizah I used to be.
After being fixated for a while, My mother-in-law then said sarcastically,
"It is good that if you know yourself, I will hold your word, go and never come back"
I smiled coldly and returned his gaze boldly,
"Don't worry Madam, I'm the right person to promise. So, can I go see Adhitama's grandfather now?"
I walked past him with my head held high. Even though I am poor and have no bloodline of blue, I have my pride and I will uphold my remaining pride. I won't let them trample him again.
Chequek...
"Grandfather..."
I, who was very strong and convinced that I could say everything out loud, now began to waver when I saw his pale half-face with his eyes closed.
I went up to him, raised his slightly blanched blanket to cover the abdomen of the 75-year-old man.
"Sorry...."
That's all I can get out of my lips. I sat down beside Grandpa while touching his already very wrinkled fingers. His body is getting thinner. Seeing his condition I felt more and more burdened. Am I willing to express my desire to leave?
My hands kept moving, giving a gentle massage to his thin arms, Maybe because Grandfather had not slept.
"Aczech..."
"Assalamualaikum Yes..."
I tried to smile. I'm sure Grandpa will accept my decision.
"Waalaikumsalam, it's night, son, why are you here?"
He asked cheerfully, a tinge of happiness light appeared on his face.
"I want to accompany Grandpa"
My answer, who actually still continues to convince themselves and gather the courage to discuss my problem.
"Aczech..."
Call grandpa. His eyes are staring at me. I feel like He already knows I have a problem. I also looked at her, unconsciously I was crying.
I said stumbling along with my sobs.
"Rush?"
Grandfather asked, his forehead slightly wrinkled. I swallowed slowly.
"I gave up on my wedding cake, I've been struggling for 4 years to melt my husband's heart cold as ice. I tried so hard I never felt tired, But now I realize that if everything was in vain, my husband would never love me"
I lowered my head, completely unable to look into Grandpa's eyes. I realized that I had incised a wound in his heart.
"I understand" Grandfather said softly but I could still hear, making me look up instantly.
"Grandfather?" Not the relief I felt, but the guilt that seemed to eat away at my body.
"I've known everything even from the very beginning, son, I'm the one who should be apologizing for making you suffer during my barbaric granddaughter's life"
Grandpa looked teary, He then smiled gently while rubbing my hair.
"Go, son, pursue your own happiness, I approve of your decision. It is not you who are not worthy of my grandson, but He who is not worthy of you"
"Grandfather... Sorry, sorry to disappoint you"
"No son, you've sacrificed a lot. I'm the one who should ask for your forgiveness, throw you into the hell my own granddaughter made. I'm sure Axel will regret it for life for taking off a diamond like you"
I saw a clear sheet wetting his two wrinkled petals, I rubbed it softly and said,
"Thank you, Miss, I have some happy news for you too"
I then touched my flat stomach and told her I was pregnant.
"Grandfather will soon become great-grandfather. So stay healthy. My son and I will visit you one day"
I cried when I saw him looking at me full of happiness and it seemed his body was shaking because of sobbing.
"I'll be healthy, son, I'll be diligent in taking medicine and obey all the orders of the Doctor, I want to see my great-granddaughter and call me Great-grandfather"
She laughed in her tears. I nodded steadily then took his promise.
"I hold Grandpa's promise, I also promise to take good care of Grandpa's great-grandchildren. Wait for Us"
Grandfather nodded and smiled.
"Where are you going?" Ask. I smiled and answered,
"To a place where no one knows me"
I smiled grievously as well as Grandpa, He smiled but the sadness was inevitable.
We are a Family formed on the basis of love, Although it has no blood relation, But Grandpa Adhitama is a very meritorious and meaningful person in my life. His kindness I will never forget.
That night, I spent my last night in this City, sharing stories with grandfathers for us to make fond memories that will stick in each of our days later.
Until the next day, I left the Hospital before Grandpa woke up. Really I probably won't be able to even change my mind if I see it later when I let go.
I played the new phone I bought on my way home yesterday. The phone I used was a gift from Axel. I don't want to owe him anything anymore.
Even the money I borrowed for my mother's treatment was in the village I returned some. I've left a letter in the box that I leave to Bu Willy which is about debt and also the amount of account balance that comes from the rest of the spending money he gives every month.
For the past 2 years, I've been using my personal money to sell for food and buy necessities. I only use the money sent by Axel's secretary to pay for electricity, water and other urgent needs. Because Axel also does not send money on time so I am used to earning my own income to eat.
While Home, I never paid for it, It seems to have been on Axel's lease for a long time, or perhaps forever, to throw me away in his life.
