Flora was looking at her son through a glass window that led to a sterile room inside. He bit his nails, feeling anxious to let the little boy in the room alone to get treatment. In there, Gavin was given a drug that was delivered through an infusion tube in his hand.
Flora kept trying to catch her breath to calm herself down. Seeing the way the treatment given to his son also made him tortured. Moreover, this is the first time he let his son without assistance because it was forbidden by doctors. Good thing Gavin's a brave and obedient boy.
"How's Gavin doing?"
Suddenly from behind a voice sounded. Alvaro has come in still wearing his work uniform.
"Since the morning Gavin was vomiting. Now she is in therapy," replied Flora with a look on her face that still looks lethargic.
Alvaro took a look inside the room. Gavin was inside with the doctor and nurse. Gavin has been treated there for more than two weeks and has not been allowed to go home because of his unstable condition.
"So, how did you decide?" ask Alvaro.
"What decision?" Flora seems to be lacking understanding of Alvaro's intentions.
"You don't want to marry me?" Alvaro said straightforwardly.
Flora sighed again. Thinking about the condition of his son to make him forget the offer of the man. To him, there was nothing important other than his son in this world.
"Isn't it too soon? You just got divorced from your wife. Now, you want to marry me?" ask Flora. He felt bad about Alvaro's divorce. He was like an actor who managed to take away people's husbands.
"Is that a problem? Or can you still be patient with Gavin's condition like this? Want to wait for news from a spinal cord donor?"
Alvaro loved Gavin very much. He was always worried about the health of the child who had been able to meet it for so long. Apart from being in love with Flora, she also wants to see Gavin heal.
Flora herself is still unsure. Of course he wants Gavin's recovery. However, it feels strange when she has to marry the man who once impregnated her in order to get pregnant again.
"Cock quiet? You hate me so much that you don't want to marry me?" ask Alvaro. He was surprised that his question was not answered immediately.
Flora wanted to feel like hitting the man next to her. If you remember the past, of course he is upset and maximum hate for the man who always mocked and insulted him. Even though Alvaro said it was done to attract his attention, still what the man was doing had already incised a trauma inside him.
"Come on, I'm not that thick. I can be a good husband to you and a good father to Gavin" Alvaro said.
Flora turned her head and raised next to her eyebrows. "Oh, huh? Is there a guarantee?"
Alvaro felt challenged to prove his feelings. He moved forward to make Flora surprised and was forced to retreat until her back hit the wall.
Alvaro cornered him with both hands. He smiled meaningfully while looking at the woman before him. "After marriage, you will know how crazy I am about you" he said with confidence.
Flora is in place. The man was quite terrible from his response. "Well, let's ask Gavin ourselves. Does he really want a father like you."
Alvaro smiled broadly." I'm sure my son Oasti will agree right away." he felt very confident.
"Mother Flora ...."
There was a voice calling from the door of the room. Alvaro and Flora stopped their conversation as the nurse called. Flora put away Alvaro's hand and walked over to the nurse.
"Gavin's son has finished therapy, can be moved back to his room. Want Mother Flora herself to push or just me?" ask the nurse.
"Oh, let me just," said Flora.
"Yeay, there's Papa!" girang.
Gavin is always excited every time Alvaro comes. Although he loved his mother very much, Gavin was very fond of Alvaro.
Alvaro knelt before Gavin, looking at his son's pale face while still smiling at him.
"Papa's hero is very good, dare to go inside himself," he said.
Gavin smiled broadly. "Yes, Papa. Gavin wants to heal so he can walk with Mama Papa. Gavin isn't afraid of being injected!" the boy spoke with passion as if he did not feel any pain.
"If Gavin feels nauseous or vomiting later, please call the nurse. Excuse me first" said the nurse who had been handling Gavin. He went back into the room to serve other patients.
"Come, honey, we'll go back to your room" Alvaro said. He stood up again and turned to the back of Gavin's wheelchair and pushed him. Flora followed beside Gavin.
Arriving at the treatment room, he carefully moved Gavin onto the bed. Flora helps hold the connected infusion bottle on Gavin's hand.
"Mr ... Is Papa still busy? Can't Papa accompany me here at night? Poor Mama alone, she must be tired from lack of sleep," said Gavin innocently.
"Gavin, Mama's not tired of taking care of you, don't worry" Flora said. He feels bad always bothering Alvaro.
"Or maybe Aunt Prilly and Leon will be angry, if Papa is here often," Gavin said with a sullen look.
Alvaro and flora looked at each other.
Alvaro approached again, sitting next to Gavin's bed holding the boy's hand. "Darling, can Papa talk to you? It's important, "he said.
Gavin frowned. "What is that, Papa?" tanyakanya.
"Can't Papa marry your mom?" ask Alvaro.
Flora was instantly dumbfounded and widened her eyes. He did not expect that the man would be so quick to tell his son. But he asked for time.
"If Papa is married to your Mama, then Papa can often be with Gavin. We can also stay together," Alvaro persuaded with very subtle words.
"But Leon will be angry again. Aunt Prilly can be mean to Mama" said Gavin worried.
Alvaro smiled. "They've left Papa's house because it's not where they are, Gavin. Papa just wants to stay with you and your mom. So, does Gavin want Papa to really be Gavin's Papa?" tanyanya.
Gavin turned his head towards Flora, looking at his mother expectantly. "Gavin would love to have Papa. But that is if my mom agrees. It seems like Mama does not like Papa," he said straightforwardly.
Flora sighed and held her forehead. He felt desperate to obey the two people who were very similar in nature.
"You heard yourself, didn't Gavin mind if we were together" Alvaro said.
"Mama, let's answer ... If you don't want to be okay, too," urged Gavin with a frown.
"Yes, honey, yes ... Mama wants to marry your father" replied Flora half forced.
