"So I hit people" replied Mr. Matteo.

"What's? Hit people?" Claudya was shocked to hear the news from her husband.

"Dear, I accidentally hit him" said Mr. Matteo. He actually accidentally hit the woman who had crossed in front of his car.

"How are you doing, dear?" ask Claudya.

"He's paralyzed" replied Mr. Matteo. The expression on his face described his guilt.

"Crippled?" Claudya surprised.

"All my fault, I've caused him to be paralyzed" said Mr. Matteo, looking sad and desperate. Seeing that Claudya immediately hugged him.

"Patience, baby, maybe this is a test for us" said Claudya.

"Dear, forgive me" said Mr. Matteo.

Claudya took off her embrace. Put Mr. Matteo's hand on his flat stomach.

"I'm pregnant, baby" Claudya said. She gave the happy news on top of the sad news her husband brought.

"You pregnant, baby? Really?" Mr. Matteo made sure what he heard was not a lie.

"Yes, I'm pregnant" Claudya replied.

"Thank you, thank God. Behind the test is an encouragement for me to endure" Matteo said.

"Dear, God tests us because God loves us" Claudya said.

Mr. Matteo kissed his wife's flat stomach. He was so happy with the heart between the two.

"I'm not afraid to go through all this again, there's a baby who will be a passion for me" Matteo said.

"We're going through everything together, baby" Claudya said.

Mr. Matteo nodded. Now he will not give up on all this. There is Claudya and her love. Every exam has a way out. Allah SWT will not test his servant beyond his means.

That morning Mr. Matteo and Claudya went to the hospital with Ezar with them. Both of them wanted to visit Sora. After all, everything that happened to Sora was unintentionally caused by Mr. Matteo. Fortunately, there was no mother Nita. She was going to her contract to take clothes for Sora.

Mr. Matteo and Claudya walked into the inpatient room.

"Assalamu'alaikum" said Mr. Matteo and Claudya.

"Wa'alaikumsallam" said Sora.

Mr. Matteo and Claudya went inside. Ezar walked first. Approaching Sora. Seeing that somehow Sora was so fond of the child standing in front of her. Sora stroked the boy's face. There were no tears on her cheeks.

"Ezzar!" call Claudya.

Ezar turned to Claudya. He hugged Claudya.

"Mother!" sahut Ezar's.

Sora sees the closeness of Claudya and Ezar. He misses his lost son, maybe if there were still as big as Ezar.

"I'm sorry Ezar does like that in new people," said Claudya.

"It's okay" said Sora.

Mr. Matteo and Claudya approached. Same with Ezar. He looks happy when he meets Sora. His hand held Sora's hand.

"Him?" Sora wondered who Ezar was.

"He is Ezar Fauzan, our adopted son," replied Mr. Matteo.

"Lifting child?" said Sora.

"Yes, we adopted Ezar as our son" Claudya replied.

"We took Ezar from the orphanage" Claudya replied.

Sora's eyes glazed over to see Ezar. He misses his son.

"May I hug Ezar?" sora asked Ezar's parents.

Mr. Matteo and Claudya nodded.

"Ezar come nearer!" sora Pinta.

Ezar is approaching. Rushing Sora who was in a sitting position hugged Ezar. It was the same as hugging her lost son.

Sora opens the collar of Ezar's back shirt. There was a black mark on his back. Same birthmark as his son.

"What is Ezar my son?" inner Sora. Surprised to see the birthmark. He shut it back down. Unhugging her. Ezar returned to Claudya's arms.

"Miss Sora, I'm Matteo Renaldi, and my wife is Claudya Nesya. This is our adopted son Ezar Fauzan. We came here to apologize, for my mistake yesterday," Matteo said.

"Yes, it has unintentionally made Miss so like this," added Claudya.

Whatever it is, Mr. Matteo remains guilty in this incident. He and Claudya tried to apologize. About the consequences of that mistake they are ready to go through it together.

"Actually you are not entirely guilty, I am also the one who is not careful. Maybe because I was too excited on my first day at work" Sora said.

"But still we're sorry, it must have been hard for Miss" Matteo said.

"I have forgiven, at first it was hard to accept the fate that happened to me. But all this has happened again" replied Sora.

"We'll take responsibility until you can walk back" Claudya said.

"Thank you" said Sora.

Suddenly Mother Nita entered the room.

"Why are you here?" mother Nita said.

"We want to apologize to the mother's child" replied Mr. Matteo.

"I'm sorry, it's easy to apologize. Look son! He's paralyzed because of you!" Mother Nita was angry. He couldn't accept seeing his son paralyzed and his future ruined.

Ezar looks scared. Hugging Claudya's feet. Seeing that Sora was worrying about Ezar.

"Mom, stop! It's all my destiny" said Sora.

"Destiny? You got paralyzed like this? And he's just apologizing?" sahut Ibu Nita's.

"I've forgiven you, ma'am, none of this is entirely the fault of Mr. Matteo" Sora said. He knew what happened to him wasn't entirely Mr. Matteo's fault.

"Can't, he has to take responsibility, he's ruined your future" Mother Nita said. He didn't accept just being apologized.

"Mom they've been responsible for coming here and will treat me until I recover" said Sora.

"No, that's not enough. Then what about your future. Will any man marry a paralyzed woman?" mother Nita said.

"Well, I'll take responsibility, Sora will recover until she can walk again. And we will finance anything for his future" Matteo said. He will not lose responsibility. He will make sure Sora's future is secured.

"You think you can pay me with that. Marry my son or I'll report you to jail!" nita's Mom Threat.

Mr. Matteo and Claudya fell silent with Mother Nita's words.

"How's it?" ask Nita's mother. He believes Mr. Matteo will choose to marry his son rather than in prison. Who wants to be in jail.

"I am ready to go to jail, rather than to grieve my wife" replied Mr. Matteo. Without doubt. He would rather be in prison than his wife.

"Darling?" Claudya held the hand of Mr. Matteo. Looked at his face.

"I love you, no one can ever make that change" Matteo said.

Claudya smile. He and Mr. Matteo had already agreed before going to the hospital with the worst possibility.
