In the room, Stevie and Ms. Sheilla were having a conversation. Because of the last case that almost harmed Stevie, Andreas Jonathan did ask his sister and mother to join them in the Pant House. With them gathered together, surveillance and care became easier. But the two women had to live in one room, because of the limitations of the room in the Pant House.
"Mama... did you not open your heart to Papa Wijaya..? Looks like Andre's brother, also has the same thoughts as Stevie ma.. Come back, and unite with papa Wijaya ma.., Stevie waits and misses him, how you two took care of Stevie. This opportunity has been lost ma, but it can still be realized in the present." sound Stevie asked his mother to reunite with papa Wijaya.
Madam Sheilla was silent, looking still there was some excitement in the middle-aged woman's eyes. Moments later, the woman breathed..
"Is your dream not to be too high Stevie.., too sick if you remember my daughter's past. How in a state of pregnancy, at that time papa drove mama away from Canada. With reasons that can not be heard, and finally Armansyah who gave help to mama, so that finally we can settle in the country of Singapore at that time," the words of Ms. Sheilla sound soft.
Stevie fell silent, indeed before the arrival of his biological brother Andreas Jonathan to Singapore at that time, who knew already in his apartment, Stevie still thought that Mr. Armansyah was his biological father. However the treatment of the middle-aged man, but when Stevie was sick in childhood, his mother was at work, the man who always accompanied him, compressed his forehead. What a treatment, it does not show if it turns out that the man is not his biological father.
"Youth's mind will be difficult to equate with the mind of older people. Mama who lived it Stevie.., how you had to survive to raise me alone, remove the trace of the existence of your father Wijaya from your life. Not young that time for my daughter's mom... And at this time, if suddenly Papa Wijaya appears, and wants to return with mama, mama's memory of that time appears again.."mrs Sheilla looks smiling wryly.
"Stevie understands ma.., but is not papa also not always in the wrong position. It could be, because at that time, reality and evidence were deliberately shown papa the truth, and papa was too naive to find the truth mama. Stevie didn't know, and couldn't feel what you were feeling. Stevie's only prayer is always mama, always the best for the relationship of mama Sheilla and papa Wijaya.. There are times, even though it's too late, Stevie wants to feel the sleep between the two of you, with Stevie in the middle of it.." Stevie can't do much.
Sheilla smiled, then the middle-aged woman approached her daughter's seat. Madam Sheilla suddenly hugged her daughter tightly, who due to new circumstances was able to meet and get to know her biological father. There was a bit of pain in the middle-aged woman's heart, but indeed her heart until now has not been able to sincerely forgive Mr. Wijaya. Slowly Stevie leaned her head against the middle-aged woman's chest, again feeling the affection of the extraordinary woman who continued to accompany her.
"We will fight with my daughter, and may your heart be open to accept your father Wijaya. But for now, forgive mama Stevie. mama has not been able to.." said Ms. Sheilla lirih.

Grand master Wijaya was pensive, the man was sitting alone in the corner of the restaurant without anyone being with him. There are several slices of sandwiches on the small plate in front of it, as well as a cup of hot black coffee. It looked like the old man was daydreaming from earlier, looking at the people passing by in front of him. I don't know what's on that man's mind.
"No one's seen Andre. Could've had breakfast alone, not offered to your wife.."
"Cassandra has been delivered breakfast by the room service section since then pa, he said again lazy out of the Pant House. Papa himself, why not take Mama Sheilla for breakfast together. Weren't you guys single this time, so there's no problem, no, if papa and mama do activities together.." Andreas Jonathan's words seemed to give a subtle insinuation to his papa.
The man then began to sip the drink from inside his glass, then put the cup back on the table. Andreas Jonathan then took a fork and knife, and began to enjoy the food in front of him. Mr. Wijaya only saw what his son was doing.
"Nothing can be expected from your mama Andre, it seems like your mama's heart is closed to papa. Perhaps papa's treatment in the past, has been too and very hurt him, so that the door sorry even now is still tightly closed.." Mr. Wijaya turned his eyes out of the glass window beside him.
"It could be just papa's feeling.., keep trying.. Hard stone alone, can hole if exposed to a drop of water every day. As well as his heart, Andre feels that you only need proof, if you really love your mother, and will not hurt her again in the future. Don't be discouraged, keep trying." Andreas Jonathan cheers his papa.
Mr. Wijaya only smiled wryly, and the old man paused for a moment trying to recall how Mrs Sheilla had treated him. Several times, the old man had tried to trap the woman, but all had not been able to subdue Sheilla's heart.
"Your mother's heart is still too hard, it seems that the presence of Armansyah in her second marriage also left a deep wound on Sheilla. Finally your mama's heart became as hard as stone, there is still trauma to establish another marriage bond." said Mr. Wijaya lirih.
"For that papa should try, use Stevie to help papa soften papa's heart. The girl who since the baby lived with the mother, and the emotional closeness between Stevie and the mother is thicker, compared to the closeness of Andre with the mother," Andreas Jonathan is still trying to strengthen his father's heart.
The old man only smiled smirk, it was unexpected what Mr. Wijaya would do. Sleeping in one bed together, living in the same room, he had done with Sheilla. But nothing happened between the ex-husband and his wife, it seems that Ms. Sheilla is numb.
