Dream Womb
Enter the Hospital

Diana POV.

"Papa should trust Diana! The recording that Haris gave me wasn't real, Pa! He was always looking for a way to get divorced from me. Papa knew that a long time ago, didn't he?" I'm still trying to convince you to believe I'm not the guilty one. Harris is the cause of all this. Haris should get the punishment, not me.

Seeing the seriousness on my face Papa fell silent. I don't know the more I get here the more I doubt I can control things. If all this time I believe Haris can't I beat it looks like I should start being careful with that guy.

"Explain who Andre is?"

Papa threw a precise glance through my two beads sharply. I know what that look means. Every time I make a big mistake, Papa must look at me like that, as if to judge. Of course I do not like the eyes of papa that makes me more cornered and helpless.

"Diana answered papa's question! Who's this guy named Andre?"

Firm to the point, straight to the core goal of the question. Looks like Papa doesn't need any more pleasantries. While my brain was still spinning around looking for a safe answer to convince papa.

"Have you asked so many times you still don't want to answer? Tell Diana, who's Andre?" Papa's voice trembled, there was a wound within that voice. The wounds I could feel were similar to the ones I had suffered. Papa's voice sounded so loud that I could no longer dodge it.

"Andre is Keisya's husband, Haris's mistress." My lips twitched the name of a woman I hated to death.

Because of that woman all my dreams are falling apart. Without me realizing the clear circles wet the cheeks. What am I crying about now? This destruction? Defeat, shame or a pile of guilt that has now settled in the chest? I wouldn't have done any of this without Keisya. He's the only person to blame or all that tragedy that happened.

Plaque!

My left cheek feels hot. Of course Papa slapped me, papa must think I deserve all this.

"Pa, never mind .. don't be rude to Diana! Remember, she's pregnant with our granddaughter."

Mama's voice begged Papa not to slap me anymore, but I was ready to accept the next slap. Only you can slap me, no one else. I'd be willing if Papa beat me up though.

I was disappointed in myself, but I was more disappointed with Haris who until now always wanted to release himself from the shackles of our marriage. Shackles? Just be right! Haris is truly an ungrateful man.

"Ma ... Papa why?" My mother's panicked voice sounded again. This time, Mama grabbed Papa's shoulder. Papa's hand clutched tightly to his chest.

"Already, Pa, don't get angry, hold your emotions later papa's heart flat. Diana was an adult she could make decisions for her own life. We better calm ourselves first." Mana is always like water that is able to flush and dampen papa's anger.

"Papa regrets spoiling you, Diana. Papa felt guilty for following all your wishes long ago. It turns out that it's all poison in your body and mind. You are never satisfied, your actions really make Papa ashamed! You're like a cheap woman, Diana!"

Papa's teeth chattered to hold back his anger. Papa was charging me right in front of my face. That's as low as I am in front of papa. I'm just fighting for this household. I'm just trying to keep the man I love from leaving. I tried in every way that Papa taught me, but now you're disappointed. My lips smiled, "it's ironic for your life Diana, "my inner self-mockery.

"Propathy, let Diana calm down first." Mama's still trying to ease papa's emotions.

"Don't you see your daughter being so embarrassing? From the first I thought Haris was wrong and did not know himself, it turns out our daughters do not know themselves. She cheated until she got pregnant, what the fuck? Papa never taught you to be wild like this, Diana!" gertak Papa again. Papa's shout made my voice shrivel for a moment.

"You don't keep defending him! He's already tarnished our good name, Ma! We should've been firm a long time ago, not given her what she always wanted." Papa's voice trembled, anger mixed with regret.

I bow my face. Papa has drawn a very painful conclusion. Well this is the last time, I'll try to soften papa's heart.

"Pa, sorry Diana. Diana can explain everything."

"Where's Andre?" Regardless of my answer, Papa asked the whereabouts of the man I should have buried alive.

"Andre? Why did you become Nanyain Andre?" I said softly.

"From today you must follow all the divorce procedures with Haris! Nothing can be complicated anymore, then after that Papa will meet with Andre. He must marry you!"

Oh no! This is the next hell!

"Nor Pa, Papa can't do this, Diana is not in love with Andre. Diana loves Haris." I have to fight papa.

"Diana, you can feel yourself you're not in love with Haris, you're obsessed with her. Now you see for yourself, this is the result. Haris isn't good for you, so let her go. Papa doesn't want to know anymore, don't make a move after this you have to marry Andre."

"Papa can't do this with Diana! This is my life Pa! Diana has the right to decide everything herself!" my shout was no less fierce to reply to papa's ultimatum.

"Diana, don't talk anymore. You better take a break and think about what Papa ordered. All this for your good, son."

I turned my eyes to the mother who was still trying to hold Papa.

"Mama doesn't want you to suffer, now we go home first, Papa needs rest." Mama nodded her head giving me orders I couldn't deny. The woman who still looks beautiful at the age of fifty years was driving Papa into the room.

I resentfully leave those who leave this apartment immediately. After my mom and dad left my mind was not calm.

"There's no way I'm married to Andre, the man I don't love at all," my mind churned.

Is this the next defeat? ****! I hit the wall in the room. My head is throbbing pain, I feel dizzy. I just closed the door, there was a phone call from my mom.

"Diana you don't panic, Mama just wants word, Papa had a heart attack just on the way and now we're heading to the International hospital."

Mama's voice was touched to tell papa's condition. No, no, this is impossible! Papa was fine. Papa is a strong man, it is impossible to fall down because of my problems.
