Mommy, My Angel
bonus chapter

The flashback

The figure of a petite girl, now sitting

alone in a park chair available at one of the hospitals.

The 10-year-old girl's back, it looked, shook violently and there was a soft sobbing sound that was able to slash the feeling of being heard.

Likewise, the figure of the adult man who had since noticed the little girl was sad.

The man, who had been standing behind a tree, happened to be in the hospital looking after his wife for serious treatment.

Looking at the girl who was walking alone towards the park by relying on a stick, she continued to follow, monitoring from a distance of 5 steps.

The girl he knew was blind, but was able to figure out the direction to the park behind the hospital.

The man was claustrophobic, hearing the girl's soft words, at once a sense of regret was also guilty now touched the deepest heart.

For the past few months he has been thinking about all his faults, especially ignoring the figure he once loved, and rejecting the presence of his own flesh and blood.

Perhaps it was time for him to venture closer to his flesh and blood that was in need of that backrest.

maybe it was this, when he did it, giving a father's embrace to his biological daughter.

Kendrick is now at war with her inner self, between ignoring her daughter or giving her the figure of a father she was supposed to do long ago.

Until now the inner strength of a father makes him lose to his ego. Kendrick tries to brave himself to approach Aurora, who still looks sad.

Men with ordinary appearance and no longer look a figure full of charisma and luxury. Now he only wears ordinary clothes as well as cloth pants that are already shabby color.

In order to survive with his wife, Stella, Kendrick worked as a construction worker in several infrastructure developments in his city.

Kendrick was forced to endure the embarrassment, when he met his former employees who used to work with him for a project, development. All he did was to survive in such a harsh country, as well as for the treatment of his depressed wife, after the loss of their daughter.

Kendrick also contemplated all the events that he experienced, his heart and mind were realized, maybe all this was reciprocal from the actions he did first.

Now the man is getting closer, with Aurora still on his back. His move to get closer was so heavy, as if something had happened to both of his legs.

Also his voice was so hard to let out, just greeting his biological daughter.

His face became even more tense with his chest pounding, for some reason he was so afraid to get closer to Aurora.

She felt ashamed and unworthy, being next to her daughter.

"Do you need anything, sir?" Kendrick suddenly tensed with a petrified body, hearing the reprimand of — Aurora.

"You can sit next to me" continued Aurora with a puffy face, still visible remnants of crying on the beautiful face.

Kendrick was still silent, thinking, where did Aurora know she was around?

I can't see anything, but both ears and my sense of smell work so sensitively." Aurora said, understanding the situation that looks confusing.

"I can also feel the presence of someone around me" Aurora continued, wiping her eyes.

Kendrick was silent, he was still frozen in place. Confused what to do.

"May I sit here?" Finally Kendrick ventured to approach her daughter and sat down at the side, Aurora.

Aurora's stunned turn, heard the voice of the man beside her, whom she still remembered correctly with this man's voice.

Suddenly the face of the beautiful-looking girl was frightened and she slightly shifted her body.

Aurora was about to stand up and step up, but fatefully, she tripped and almost fell down, lucky, Kendrick immediately held both of her daughters shoulders.

"Let go!" Pinta the little girl while releasing Kendrick's hands that are on the shoulders.

Kendrick publishes a wry smile, receiving rejection from her own daughter.

"Let me tell you something." Kendrick now says his goal is to get close to his daughter.

"I'm sorry, I can't" she refused, but again her legs felt limp in fear that made her slump on the green grass.

"Don't touch me!" Aurora's repulsive touch, as she felt Kendrick now holding her and again sitting her in the garden chair. 

Looking at the face of his daughter that he had neglected. Kendrick tried to touch Aurora's calm palm.

Aurora did not refuse, but her dark gaze was now directed to the side. Kendrick could only publish a bitter smile.

"I'm sorry, for all the things I've done to you, sorry for ignoring and doubting your existence. I'm really sorry, "Kendrick's voice was choked, holding back the pain in his chest.

He was so warm that he could be close to his daughter. Although he should get a rejection from — Aurora.

"I have sinned against you, until now I have sincerely accepted the recompense for all the wrongs that have made you suffer" Kendrick continued. The man also shed his tears and Aurora felt that, as her palm felt the teardrops of the man in front of her.

"I'm sorry, sorry, sorry for all our wrongs to you, I promise I will do anything to make amends for all my mistakes, even though I have to sacrifice my life to atone for my sins." Kendrick was so melancholy in front of her daughter.

Aurora can only be silent, in fact she also shed tears. Remembering the sacrifice is also the struggle of the mother to raise her.

"You should apologize to the woman who fought for me, until this point." Aurora was so resolute in expressing disappointment, to the man who was her biological father. What he should hate, but a child's heart cannot lie, if he loves this man too.

As evil as a father is, a child will not simply hate, for blood is thicker than water. And now he feels that. 

The yearning for his biological father still exists and overcomes the seed of hatred.

Kendrick lowered his head and he smiled bitterly. What his daughter said was right, he should have apologized to Sandra for the difficult life she had given her.

"I have never hated you, but that disappointment can make me keep the longing, I thank and thank you, because you play an important role, so that I can be born in the womb of a great woman, like mommy." Aurora stopped him for a moment while wiping her tears. 

Kendrick also held the tightness in his chest, which was so painful.

He continued to look at his daughter's face that looked increasingly moist, as well as a hoarse and nasal voice.

"Thank you" said Aurora.

Kendrick couldn't help but hug his daughter, the man finally let out a sobbing sound as well as a cry, letting out a painful feeling in the chest cavity.

Aurora also reciprocates the embrace of the daddy, however this man is his daddy, and it is not appropriate that he hates a father who has an important role, until he is on the face of the earth.

The two children and the father, still hugging each other, without them noticing, the female figure was now staring at the two furiously.

One of his hands even now hid the scissors he found in the doctor's room.

His gaze was so full of malice as well as vengeance, he who was trying to get out of the hospital which made him even more stressed, unknowingly seeing Aurora and Kendrick, her husband.

The woman, too, was looking for something to use so that her grudge was also avenged.

He who was on the second floor now, walked to approach Aurora and Kendrick.

__________

"What are your hopes, son?" Kendrick is now sitting next to her daughter while embracing Aurora's affectionate embrace. His feeling was so relieved, being able to hug his daughter.

"I was just expecting to see, even though I was only given a minute, I wanted to see it" Aurora said with a smile on her pretty face.

"Who do you want to see? In that short time?" Ask Kendrick back and now change his position is in front of — Aurora.

"Mommy, I just want to see mommy's face. Tough women are also independent who are my inspiration." Aurora said with a happy face full of hope. 

Wanted a vision even if only given a minute to see the figure of his greatest woman.

Kendrick was silent, her feelings were pinched, with this remark of her daughter. Suddenly the man's face was shocked, when he saw Stella now behind Aurora by trying to swing the scissors towards her daughter.

"Aurora, watch out!" Kendrick strangles and pushes beside his daughter, and he becomes a shield to protect Aurora from his own wife's actions.

The scissors hit Kendrick's chest right in his heart. Stella was shocked with a face of disbelief, her bloodied hand was now shaking violently with a face of fear.

Aurora is shocked and hears Kendrick's voice trying to protect her from danger.

He feels Kendrick's head is right at his feet. Soon Aurora's helping Kendrick.

Not long seen some nurses approaching also Gracia who had been looking for the existence of Aurora.

Gracia was so shocked to see the heartbreaking sight before her.

A father who is now lying down in front of his daughter who continues to roar.
