Arselo stared at Safira's faithful face closing his eyes, it has been ten hours since Safira came out of the operating room, but he has not seen any signs that Sapphira will soon wake up from her sleep.
"Fira, let's get up. Look at the little girl you've born, she's so tiny and tiny and cute and pretty, don't you want to see her right away? I'm sorry for not being able to take care of you properly, to make you like this. Please wake up soon, Fira. Your baby is in desperate need, the kids are asking for things, we all need you, Fira" Arselo told Safira.
During those ten hours, Arselo did not move even a little from the side of Sapphira's bed, except only when he needed to go to the restroom. Arselo also prayed and taught in the room.
"El, you better go home first. The kids keep asking you, meet them even for a minute. Let Mama and Papa who will keep Safira here, after all, soon Bu Resti and Pak Bambang will be here soon. We have told all the events that happened to Sapphira" said Mrs Sita to Arselo who was still faithful to look at the face of the woman who became the mother of her children.
Arselo gave a rough sigh, he did not want to go from Sapphira's side, but he also had to look at the circumstances of his other three children.
"Alright, Ma. I'll be home for a while to see the condition of the children" replied Arselo.
Arselo told Safira to go home first.
"Fira, I'll be home for a while to see the condition of the children, I'll be back soon after meeting the evil woman who has harmed you" Arselo said before he left Safira's room.
"El, Mama hope you can punish people who have harmed Safira, Mama will not calm down if the person still roam freely" said Mrs Sita before Arselo left.
"Yes, Ma. I know what I have to do now. El pamit first" said Arselo say goodbye to Mama and Papa.
"Yes, El. Be careful on the road" replied Mr. Ardan.
Arselo began to step out of the hospital with an erratic heart, he continued to walk quickly without looking right left until accidentally, he hit someone.
"Els? Why are you here? Who's sick?" ask Sarah. Yes, the person he just hit was Sarah, his friend and also a friend of Sapphira.
"Safira, yesterday she had to give birth" replied Arselo.
"Huh? Isn't this not the time yet? And what does it mean to give birth? Did something happen to Safira?" sarah asked in a row, she was surprised by Arselo's answer, saying that Safira was forced to give birth prematurely.
"Yesterday Sapphira was harmed by someone, he had a stabbing in his stomach area, lucky that the stabbing was not to injure the baby who was still conceived by Sapphira, and at this time Safira's condition is still critical, he has not been awake since the last ten hours out of the operating room" replied Arselo.
Sarah shut her mouth, she did not expect that Sapphira would experience such an incident.
"Oh my God, Fira. I didn't think she would experience something like that, El. What about the baby?" ask Sarah to know.
"Safira's baby is fine, she is still in the incubator, because her weight is lacking and her endurance is still weak" Arselo replied explaining a little about the condition of Safira's baby.
"Akh, poor baby. Can I stop by to see him?" ask Sarah expectantly.
"Of course, I'll tell you where the room is. By the way, what are you doing here?" asked Arselo who was surprised to see Sarah in the hospital.
"Devi, he tried yesterday to b*n*h himself by injuring his wrist. He still blames Safira for the incident that happened to Deril's brother, he wants to end his life because he cannot accept the fact that Deril's brother is dead" Sarah replied.
"Then how is the current situation?" ask Arselo.
"Oh, I hope he wakes up quickly and doesn't turn on Safira again. If so, I go first. The kids are waiting at home" Arselo told Sarah.
"Ok, I'll stop by Safira's room" replied Sarah.
After saying goodbye to each other, Arselo continued his steps towards the parking lot.
Arriving at Safira's house, Arselo was immediately greeted by his three children, there Ni Eti and Caca as well.
"Son El, how is Sapphira now? Are they okay?" tanya Ni Eti worried about Safira's situation.
"Safira's current state is still worrying, Ni" replied Arselo sadly.
"Pa, we want to see Mama" Dayyan pinta pleaded with her face.
"Yes, Pa. We want to see the state of Mama and baby sister" Raiyan said.
"We miss Mama too" Qirani said.
Arselo looked at the faces of his three children, indeed he could not bear to see them grieving like now.
"You can meet Mama, but you can't cry in front of Mama. At this time Mama is still asleep" answered Arselo to support the wishes of his three children.
"Yes, Pa. We promise not to cry in front of Mama" said Raiyan happy.
"Alright, now you guys get ready first. Later Papa will pick you up" said Arselo, the three children also agreed to his Papa speech.
Arselo said goodbye to Ni Eti and Caca, he had to meet Sofyan and Erika. Arriving there, Arselo was waiting for Sofyan who was standing in front of the entrance.
"Where is that woman?" ask Arselo.
"He's still in the investigation room, sir" Sofyan replied.
Arselo followed Sofyan to the room where Erika was. After he spoke to the officer, Arselo was allowed to meet Erika.
"Master, forgive me. Yesterday I could no longer stem the turbulent anger in my heart" Erika said as Arselo walked into the room where she was being investigated.
Erika did not think that her actions would be very detrimental to herself, she was consumed by her anger because she saw Sapphira who was happy with Arselo, while she suffered because to eat everyday she was in trouble. The tidal money Sofyan gave him was not enough for him, because at that time he thought that Arselo did not really blacklist him, so he used the money to spend.
"Can your apology bring things back? Did you not think at that time if the actions you have done will be very dangerous to the lives of others? Don't you think about the fate of that baby? And do you know how the other three Sapphira children are feeling right now? Where was o***you at the time? Why would a highly educated woman like you have such lowly behavior?
If only hitting that woman was allowed I would finish you off with my own hands" Arselo told Erika.
Erika cried bitterly, she claimed to have made a big mistake, she regretted having been carried away by emotions.
