After careful thought and self-assurance, Yasmin finally decided to meet her father. So here he was, in the VIP Room of a fancy restaurant where Yasmin promised to meet her father.
"I'm sorry you're late" said Bramantyo.
"It's okay, I understand your busyness" Yasmin said.
"Thank you for taking the time to meet my father" Bramantyo said. "Dad knows, I've done you a lot wrong, I'm not a good father, I've ignored you, even me....." Bramantyo could not continue his words, admitting all his mistakes and ugliness turned out to make him really look like a criminal.
"Dad is really sorry to do all that to you son" Bramantyo's tears could not be contained anymore, the middle-aged man was crying stupefiedly in front of his daughter.
"I'm sorry for your father's mistake and stupidity" Bramantyo pleaded with Yasmin.
"Dad" actually Yasmin did not think that the father would be like this. "Stop crying" Yasmin asked.
"The tears of this old man are not comparable to the tears you often shed Nak" said Bramantyo. "I'm sorry Dad doesn't exist when you need Dad"
"Father is right" Yasmin recalled something. "Dad was not there at midnight I was frightened by the sound of the sea lightning, Father was not there at midnight I cried hunger because your wife did not give me food, Dad wasn't there when I was working on PR that I couldn't do, Dad wasn't there when my body felt pain when that woman..." Yasmin let out a heavy sigh, while Bramantyo looked surprised to hear Yasmin's words, her cries stopping instantly.
"Did Hana treat you badly, dear?" Bramantyo really didn't expect Yasmin to experience any of this. Hana does not like Yasmin, but in the eyes of Bramantyo is only limited and does not care about Yasmin. Bramantyo did not think that Hana would go that far.
"There is no need to discuss things that have passed Well, no matter what my circumstances were. But now I can see for myself, if I can survive to this day, and have it the life I want" Yasmin wiped her tears.
"Are you willing to forgive Dad?" Yasmin smiled faintly at her father's question.
"What should I forgive? You just want to live the life you dream of with the woman you choose. But unfortunately I was present and made my father's beautiful dream fall apart, because I'm not from the one father dreamed of" Yasmin's remark made Bramantyo freeze. "What if the question is changed, can you forgive me for being a thorn in your dream?" Yasmin looked at her father.
"You're daddy's daughter, baby"
"Dad's right, I'm Dad's daughter. Until whenever I'm Dad's daughter, even to this lifeless body I will still be Dad's daughter without being able to change" Yasmin sighed. "I came here also as a daughter of Father.and let's live our own lives, Dad's dreams, I'm with my dreams" Yasmin said.
"Yasmine..."
"States as father and son will never change Well, but circumstances will not be the same as they once were. I'm no longer the little girl who would cry under the covers when she heard the sound of lightning, I'm no longer the kid that wants to be carried and held by her father. It was past, and with great difficulty I made it through" Yasmin explained, making Bramantyo's heart throb with pain.
"I don't hate Dad, even I always pray for Dad's good. I will also always love and respect Dad" Yasmin said again to make Bramantyo teary.
"Father live well, you must always be healthy and long life. I'm leaving first" Yasmin said, leaving the room without hesitation.

Bramantyo stared at his wife from the car, the woman he loved more than 30 years was watering her beloved flowers. Farhana used to be a gentle, friendly and mature girl. That's why Bramantyo fell in love with her. But everything changes when Hana finds out Bramantyo is marrying Marrisa Andini, Hana becomes an angry and ambitious figure in every way. Not infrequently Bramantyo has difficulty facing Hana's attitude.
Tok.dok...
Bramantyo realized from his daydream when the windshield of his car was knocked by Hana.
"Why not go down? even daydreaming in the car" said Hana.
"A lot of work in the office" Bram lied.
"Is Leo not going home yet?" ask when entering the house.
"Laura how are you?"
"Laura is fine, but Aldo doesn't allow Laura to visit us without her" explains Hana, a little upset with her daughter-in-law.
"Just leave it, the important thing is that Aldo is responsible and does not abandon his wife's child, and most importantly they are all healthy" Bramantyo tried to understand Aldo's attitude.
"Have you heard that soon the Regananta family will hold their son's wedding?" they both sit in the middle room.
"Yes, Mama met Helen who was preparing a wedding dress for her future daughter-in-law" upset Hana reminded the meeting at that time.
"Do you know who their daughter-in-law is?"
"Mama's not sure, but it looks like that kid....."
"Yasmin Mah, her name is Yasmin and she is also your husband's daughter" Bramantyo said.
"It looks like Papa is happy to admit her as Papa's daughter" cynical Hana.
"Yasmin is indeed my daughter Hana, regardless of what it is. Yasmin remains my daughter and will never change" Bramantyo said.
"Whatever" indifferent Hana.
"I will attend his wedding, if you want to come, don't try to find a commotion" Bramantyo warned his wife.
"Papa threatened Mama?" Hannah could not believe what her husband said.
"Yes, and you can never imagine the consequences if you just slightly violate" Bramantyo strongly refrained from asking about what Hana did to Yasmin in the past.
Yasmin's request to live well made Bramantyo afraid to know the reality and truth of the wife, so unable to coexist with women like Hana.

In a room, it appears a couple is doing a union. It should be a beautiful moment that is very much in wait and will strengthen the bond of their marriage, but not with Laura. A time like this is a scary time also holds true for him. Because not infrequently Aldo did it violently and forcefully like tonight.
"Sister, slowly you're hurting me" Laura lamented as Aldo took a strong bite out of her mountain top, as something blunt tried to barge in on her still-dry possession.
"Be quiet, I don't want to hear your protests, you better use your mouth to sigh my name, it will be more useful" Aldo said, starting the unification with a rough without heating first. Makes Laura feel an incredible pering in her core.
