"Just I don't want to hear, you're asking about your real father again."
Arka's mother said a few days after Arka and Amanda finished their break at home. They are back at work, although not full time. People in Arka's office just found out if Arka had an accident.
Son, boss Arka himself knows of Ryan. But Ryan told Putra to keep it a secret. To minimize visits to the hospital, so as not to cause excitement. Arka is still a public figure. If this is known to journalists infotainment, it will be more violent later.
They could be scrambling to find out information about Arka, regardless of Arka who needs a break. Besides on the side of Arka at that time, there was his wife who he still kept secret from the public.
"Mom, Arka's just the name. If Arka's father was here, Arka could meet him."
"No, I won't allow it. It's enough time that mom told me about him, I don't want you to ask for more. The mother who conceived and gave birth to you, the mother who took care of and raised you. Your stepfather is financing your life, so please don't ask for anything more."
Arka lowered her head, while in a corner Amanda just kept quiet while holding Azka. Because Afka has been sleeping since. Amanda doesn't want to interfere in this.
A few days earlier, they woke up from a coma. Ryan arrived hours after the doctor checked in. It also coincided with a few moments after Arka, Amanda, Rio and the police agreed. That they have to execute a plan, to find out who was behind the accident.
At that time Arka and Amanda had just been given medicine and were ready to fall back asleep, but Ryan came and gave a confession. He said that Arka was his son, his biological son. Of course Arka was surprised, and so was Amanda.
When Ryan came home, Arka opened her eyes and fell silent. Shortly after that Amanda tried to get up and approached Arka. She hugged her husband tightly, Arka crying in Amanda's arms.
"I know he's my dad, man. I've been feeling it ever since. But why should he admit it now, I better not hear all that. My heart hurts, man. I hate him."
"Ka, don't be like that."
Amanda kissed her husband's forehead.
"It wasn't you when it went to mom about who your real father was. Now that you know why you refused."
"I'm sick, man. Inget she used to leave me with my mother."
"You don't want anything, Ka. He left you when you were just a month old in the womb, you didn't even have a life at that."
Amanda let go of her hug and looked at her husband.
"When you were born, you had papa. You weren't really born without a father."
"But he's the one who should be in charge."
"I know, but you're the one he said you were. She wants to be responsible in other ways, by financing your mother's pregnancy until she gives birth. But mother refused to be given money and forced to marry, until finally she was forced to return to her country for some reason."
"Ka, we have a child, no matter how hurt your heart is like her. Don't hate the old man too much. Look at my attitude to my papa, there I maki-maki him. Excessive shouting in front of his face. I never did, Ka. I hate her the same way, because she hurt my mom. But I know how to behave."
"So it feels like I want to maki, you know not." said Arka full of revenge.
"But I'm afraid our plan is falling apart. I'm afraid someone's coming in and finding out that we're both conscious."
"No, right now you're just an emotion. Angel, Ka. We have children, and we can never be perfect parents. One day, we will make a mistake whether it is big or not for our children. Don't get into the habit of hating parents excessively, if we don't want to be hated the same as our children later."
Amanda then hugged Arka tightly. The next day Ryan came back, Rio who had been told about whoever Ryan had told Arka about his father's arrival. Arka and Amanda go back to pretending to be unconscious.
On that day again Ryan apologized, presumably he was very sorry for his actions in the past. Arka was silent again when Ryan came home, and again Amanda advised him. Until then, Arka also melted by itself. Besides, he does not want to add to the problems that occur. There's been too many people making their lives runnyam lately.
He reconciles with Ryan on his return from the hospital. There was no drama or drama there. Because Arka felt himself to be a man, who did not have to prolong the problem like a woman. Heartache is still heartache, now how to fix and accept all that.
For life must go on, and he is reluctant to keep any anger in him. Because anger only harms itself.
Another Arka, another his mother. Maybe because her mother used to experience firsthand what Ryan did to them. While the Ark at that time was still in the womb, not even blown away by the creator. He did not see clearly how Ryan's attitude at that time, to make his mother so vengeful.
Arka didn't force her mother to act the same way she did in Ryan's response. Because Arka did not know, how heavy the burden that was then borne by his mother.
Arka just tried to ask permission, so that his mother would not hurt. If Arka is caught talking or close to his biological father.
But now he knew the answer, and Arka could not argue anymore. After all, it was her mother who raised her with great difficulty all this time.
Maybe Arka will keep it a secret, if she has met Ryan. He did not want his mother to be angry or sad because of him.
"Just Amanda, keep an eye on your husband. Don't let his real father suddenly come, he's close and willing to forgive his father." Arka's mother told her daughter-in-law.
"Surely, Arka's father is here, ma'am?. Or will you come here?"
Amanda deliberately gave the question so that her mother-in-law believed in herself and Arka, if they did not know about the whereabouts of Arka's father.
"Mmm, no. It's impossible for him to come here, it's been years and he has no news. People like Arka's father can't be expected."
Amanda just nodded, not answering anymore. While Arka is now glued to his place.
