When he arrived at the hospital room, Ima immediately put the bag for Reyna and herself while in the hospital.

"Lin, you better go home, let me take care of Reyna myself, I leave the house and the shop, and say to Raka, if tired, just rest not here." Say when they sit in the waiting room, while Reyna is waited by her father Agus.

"So really, don't you mind if I stay?" Linda wanted to be sure, and she breathed a sigh of relief as ima nodded her head.

"Well, I'm coming home now, if there's anything, don't hesitate to call me." Linda patted her best friend's shoulder to support her so she didn't feel alone, "I saw Si Adek first." then Linda stood inside the room where Reyna was being cared for.

"hallo, baby. ateu go home first yes, get well quickly yes," Linda said as she rubbed Reyna's top of the head while in her kiss.

Reyna smiled as she nodded.

"Thank you" he said softly.

"Want me to take you, Lin?" tawar Agus's.

"Don't Reyna and I think I need you here more, let me just ride the bully." Linda refused. "Gus, I'm picking them up." Linda glanced at Agus.

"Surely, I promise to look after them." Agus smiled while Ima looked away from Agus' gaze at him.

"Oh yeah, Lin, or you just take the car!" ima said as she moved to pick up the car keys that were in her bag that she placed on the sopa table.

"Are you not going to need it?" ask Linda while receiving the key in sodorin ima.

"For now, no doubt tomorrow you will need a car to deliver orders to stores and markets" said Ima.

Linda nodded, then said goodbye and left the room where Agus and ima were.

After Linda's departure, Ima glanced at Agus , then said, "You too, if you want to go home please, let me wait for the dick,"

"Why do you say that, as if I were who, remember my mother, I was also Reyna's father, so I'm just like you, where you can leave her here."

"Not so, fear you have important needs" said Ima.

"Nothing is more important than my son, do not worry about my business, if you want to rest, just rest let me wait for the dede," Agus seemed a bit upset the same ima, and he was not happy, while ima was acting indifferent, then he stepped towards the sopa and laid his body which was a bit tired.

Long Agus looked at his ex-wife who looked tired and slept soundly, he smiled to see the mouth of the ima looks open and sound fine snoring from his tiny mouth.

"You look even more beautiful and funny when you're sleeping like this" he muttered, then he opened his jacket and covered his body with his jacket. Not bored of bored Agus continued to look at the face of Ima who was getting sleepy in his sleep.

"It feels like a dream can look back at you in this close range." Agus continued to stare at ima until he was shocked when Ima's eyes suddenly opened and sat down quickly as if jumped in shock.

"What are you doing?" he asked, "what time is it? astaghfirullah why don't you wake me up, I haven't prayed maghrib."

"I can't bear to wake her up, because you look so tired."

"Hais, I haven't prayed yet" his grunts got up and stood up and stepped into the bathroom to pick up the ablution.

Ima was cleaning her face and prayer mat when Agus came to her. "I'll bring you dinner, you'll be hungry." He said while putting a plastic bag on the table.

"Not yet, we're eating together!" Agus opened the other package then he took out also a bottle of mineral water and put it in front of Ima, "drink first let not drag!" her word.

"Yes, thanks...! Reyna, have you eaten yet?" I asked Ima while glancing at Reyna.

"I was feeding her while you were sleeping." Agus answered while starting to scoop his food, Ima fell silent and followed the meal. When he finished, he cleaned up his container and drank.

"I'm sorry I overslept" he said, looking at Agus, feeling guilty.

"Look easy ! Hemm, I'm out smoking a cigarette." Agus stood up and immediately left after seeing Ima nod.

That night they were compact like any other couple, taking care of Reyna.

If Reyna wants to go pup, Agus deftly carries her to the bathroom and Ima cleans her also takes care of her bed.

Until late at night, Reyna seemed to sleep soundly at 11, Ima still faithfully waiting for him to sit in a chair near Reyna's bed.

Agus came in with two cups of coffee and gave one to Ima, and told her to sit down and drink at the soup, Ima complied after she checked Reyna's condition.

"Sorry, because of my selfishness, you're tired of taking care of children alone." Agus placed his body sitting next to him sitting with Ima, who was speechless.

"Ma," Agus shifted his seat to face Ima, then grabbed Ima's hand and held it tightly. Ima was surprised he was uncomfortable, he tried to pull his hand to be released, but because Agus grasped tightly he could not let go of his hand, until he just remained silent and let it go.

"Pardon me, please give me the opportunity to make amends for all my mistakes, let us refer to them, for the sake of the children!" Agus said as he continued to hold Ima's hand and stared expectantly. Ima's speechless.

"I promise to change, it's been enough all this time that I regret all my treatment of you, especially you, forgive me. All this time I've wasted you," Agus suddenly sagged his body and rested in front of Ima by placing his head on the lap of ima, with eyes that began to glaze over.

"Ja. Don't do this! " A surprised Ima tried to get Agus to return to his seat, but he refused.

"Before you forgive me, I'll stay like this,"

"A.. I have forgiven you" said Ima. "But to get back to you, I can't." Ima's voice trembled, resisting the cries.

"But why, why Ima, I still love you and I still love you," Agus let his tears fall before Ima and wet the skirt of Ima.

"My heart's like glass, A, it's broken, however much it tries to fix it still the result won't be what it used to be, I'm sorry." Ima began to sob, pieces of the past re-emerged like a movie round. agus' actions also in-laws continue to dance nari on her closed eyelids trying to hold back tears that slide fast without being prevented.

Agus opened his eyes then looked at Ima, "So deep is the wound I gave you, as long as you live with me until you are like this?" ask Agus.

"I'm sorry, I'm an ordinary man, I have a heart and a feeling." Ima shrank her tears as her hands slipped from Agus' grasp, "Seek another woman who can accompany your life, and never hurt her heart and body, I'm the only one who feels it."

"But I want you, and only you, Ima, let's start all over again, for the sake of the children, for our sake, our love, I know you still love me, I know you still love me, I still see that love is still there," Agus tightly hugged Ima's body.

"Yes.." Reyna's whimper made them turn their eyes to see Reyna's figure whose eyes were open, Ima released her body from Agus' embrace and then approached her son.

"What's wrong, baby, if you're sick, who's sick, show me mom!" Ima rubbed her son's cheek.

Reyna shook her head then looked at her Mama her outstretched hand wiped the tears on her mama's cheek. "Mama why cry? because I'm sick, ma, sorry adek ya mah already make mama sad."

"Dear, my mother did not cry, my mother fell asleep, kept nguap deh," Ima smiled at her daughter continued to pretend to yawn in front of Reyna, "That would be her tears." Ima chuckles.

"Adek happy there are mama and dad take care of adek, adek do not want to heal ah, so can continue with mom and dad," His words while stretching his hands let in the hug of his mother and father, while Ima and Agus looked at each other.
