At Fras hospital, he was lying weakly with some medical devices attached to his body. Danu faithfully waited and felt guilty.
Because it's too hard to reveal the truth.
"Father!"
Velove and Rita's voices shifted their eyes. They look panicked when they see Fras's condition like that.
But Danu only turned her lips together, for her their panic was not because they felt anxious or worried but just a charade.
"And what happened to papa why is it like this?" Velove looks sad. But Rita just looked at him sharply.
"I want to talk to you." Said Rita who passed away leaving the ICU.
With calm and relaxed pace Danu followed where Rita went. Rita took him to a fairly deserted corridor. There's only the two of them.
The bodies of the two face each other. The eyes of Rita still looked equally sharp. Unlike Danu who looks relaxed.
"Did you tell me the truth?"
Without further ado Rita asked directly at the point.
"If so what are you going to do." Firm Danu.
Rita smiled cynically.
"You see what's happening now! My husband is lying weakly in the hospital."
"Isn't this what you want? Don't pretend to be sad or worried it won't make me feel sorry. Mr. Fras already knows everything that you lied to him and set him up."
"Caught up! Whatchu mean?"
"Are you pretending to be stupid? Mr. Fras tells of his past. You took advantage of the opportunity. Asking Fras to take responsibility is not his fault but the fault of others. You've framed her into sleeping with him and dumped the blame on him."
Rita was quite surprised to hear all the words from Danu. The secretary cannot be underestimated.
"What will Fras do? Is he gonna kick me? And let me go. It's possible that, if he gets back to health, I'm not sure Fras will wake up in a short time. You better be prepared because soon you're gonna lose your job."
With confidence Rita said that. Danu, however, only responded with a smile.
"You're too sure, madam. I remind you better lower your confidence. Don't be too high to fantasize because if you fall it will be very painful."
Rita clenched both her hands furiously.
"Do you know if Mr. Fras has written down his inheritance before he became ill and is lying down at this time. Are you sure that Mr. Fras's inheritance is your daughter?"
Rita's eyes were widened when she heard the word inheritance that had been written. Both of his hands were clenching stronger.
Danu just smiled knotfully, for her to see Rita's anxiety was a pleasant thing.
Danu passed away leaving Rita who was still silent.
*****
On a cold night Dinda sat pensively on the balcony of her room. Looking at the scene of a void sky without stars or moons, like his heart was at this moment.
Dinda's like falling in height. When his heart is blossoming, be happy. Someone broke the stalk until it fell.
What more trials Dinda faced, what is wrong if he fell back in love? What's wrong if a mother wants to feel the love of her life again.
Dinda never doubted Willy's love and sincerity, but her heart became hesitant to restart a relationship.
Will the relationship survive or should let this relationship end. I don't know if his heart is so worried right now.
"Dinda!," called Asih making Dinda turn her head. Asih stepped closer to his daughter money sitting on a chair while enjoying the night breeze.
"What's bothering you? From that day on, just daydream. Look Syena she's so happy to be with Willy. Willy is a good father-to-be. It looks like Syena would be happy if Willy became a father huh."
Dinda smiled blandly at Asih's words.
"Syena said she met Grandma. Whose grandma? Are you guys going somewhere?"
"Willy Ma's grandmother, we were taken to her grandmother's house."
"Willy took you to his house. Introducing you to his grandmother? How did they respond? But Syena looks so happy it looks like they're so nice."
"Syena played with her grandmother. And he really liked Syena."
"Thank God that means …"
"But" said Dinda, cutting Asih's words.
"But what?"
"Mother Mayang, it doesn't seem to like us very much."
"Who's Mayang?"
"Willy's mom."
The smile instantly faded. Asih could, feel what Dinda felt. Maybe this is what disturbs the mind of Dinda who continues to daydream.
He raised one of his daughter's hands. Put it on his thigh. With a soft hand, rub it.
"It is difficult and not easy to get someone's heart. Sometimes love needs sacrifice and the heart has to hurt."
Asih sighed for a moment.
"We can't force someone to like us. People's views are sometimes different. However, know if their views can change at any time after getting to know each other and being close to each other. Maybe Miss Mayang currently does not like you just assume this is the beginning of your meeting and the test of the beginning of your relationship. Try to meet again, change the bad view of yourself that is considered bad by him."
"But will Aunt Mayang change?"
"There is no heart as hard as a rock. If there were, that heart would soften over time."
Dinda and Asih both throw rough breaths. Dinda tries to understand and Asih tries to give understanding.
"Now I ask, what is your view on Ms Mayang? What kind of person is he? Is it good or not?"
Dinda was stunned for a moment before finally answering.
"The first moment he met, he greeted me with a friendly and smiling face. However, when I found out that my status had been married and had children suddenly his attitude changed. Not the first."
Dinda still remembers how Mayang behaved when she heard that Syena was her son. The smile that bloomed faded away instantly.
"That means it's just a matter of time and child. Change Mayang's view of you who are widows. Prove that a widow is not as bad as she thinks."
"If you love Willy and believe that Willy is your soul mate, your son's father-to-be and can be a good father, fight because love needs struggle. And keep praying God will grant your do'a."
"Thank you, Mom."
Just answer with a smile. Dinda was really lucky to get a mother who always understood and supported every path she chose.
His heart was always calm when he received enlightenment from his mother.
Suddenly the sound of the phone ringing surprised him. Asih, reached for his phone that was stored on the table.
The taking of the flat object made the expression of his face stiffen instantly.
"Andu," his inner self when he saw the name on the screen.
"Who's Ma'am?"
"Friends" replied Asih nervously. "Mom pick up the phone for a minute."
"Yes, Mom." Dinda nodded.
Asih got up from the chair, a little further away from Dinda.
"What's Danu calling." His mind that directly brought the flat object closer to his ear.
