"Tap tap tap," with a slow but sure step, Alex approached Mr. Arya who was lying helplessly on the sickly bed.
Seeing Alex enter and approach him, Mr. Arya removed the breathing apparatus that covered his nose and mouth.
"Lex," said Mr. Arya softly as he extended his hand to Alex. Instantly the liquid dripped from his eye patch.
"Pa, thank goodness papa has realized," Alex clasped tightly the hand of Mr. Arya.
"I'm sorry, papa Lex," said Mr. Arya, sobbing.
"What happened, why did you apologize to me?" inner Alex.
"Papa's got nothing wrong with Alex, no need to apologize. Already, papa don't talk much first, the doctor said papa must rest a lot," said Alex slowly. Actually, he was still guessing what made Mr. Arya suddenly apologize.
"Papa is wrong with you son, forgive papa, because papa has been selfish. Papa regrets Lex, all this time papa does not know that Rania,," said Mr. Arya with a loud breath.
"Rania? What did the woman say to papa?" alex's mind was furious, his jaw instantly hardened but hurriedly he covered his irritation in front of Arya sir.
"Pa, don't talk too much first, whatever you want to say, say later if you're cured. And also do not think much," said Alex before Mr. Arya continued his speech.
"No son, papa has to say it now. Papa's afraid that papa doesn't have time anymore,"
"Father don't talk like that, papa's gonna get well. The doctor said that Papa had passed the critical period. Papa don't worry, Alex will find the best doctor for papa. Papa has to heal, so that later if Alex has children, papa can play with them,"
"No son, all this time papa has been fighting against papa's disease, but all returned to the will of God. Papa's really sorry about you, about Rania. If you had known for a long time that Rania was your girlfriend, you would never have taken her from you, Lex. You must hate papa, right? Papa should have realized there was something wrong with papa's marriage with Rania so you can hate him so much" said Mr. Arya with great difficulty. Mr. Aryan's breathing is starting to get unstable. Tears flooded his face.
"Pa, don't say anything more," Alex wiped Aryan's tears away.
"I'm sorry for papa Lex's stupidity, papa was so blind all along that he was easily tricked by women like Rania. Papa's sorry, please don't hate papa Lex,"
"Pa, Alex please stop blaming yourself, papa is innocent in this. Alex never hated papa. Papa don't talk anymore" said Alex who began to worry about the condition of Mr. Arya.
"I'm sorry, papa is sorry," Mr. Arya clasped Alex's hand tightly. His condition is becoming more unstable. His breathing was so heavy, that his chest rose and fell in rhythm with his breathing.
"Pa, papa!" alex exclaimed when he saw Mr. Arya began to lose consciousness again.
"Doctor! Call the doctor!" yelled Alex frustrated.
Not long after, the doctor and several nurses entered the room Arya sir.
"Doctor, what exactly is going on, why is it that papa can do this?" Alex asked for an explanation.
"Master help you get out first, let the doctor do an examination of the patient," one of the nurses told Alex.
Alex said he left the room weakly without power.
"Mas, what's going on?" Anes approached Alex, he also looked very anxious because he saw several nurses in and out of the room Mr. Arya.
"Papa lost his consciousness again" replied Alex lethargic.
"Mas sit down first" Anes asked Alex to sit down. They walked past Rania.
Alex looked at the woman hatefully. I think he wants to wear it.
"Drink first, let's calm down a little. Papa must be fine, "Anes opened the lid of the bottle of mineral water and gave it to Alex. His heart was also anxious and afraid that something might happen that was least desirable to Mr. Arya, his favorite in-law. But she also had to strengthen her husband's heart.
Moments later, the doctor came out of Mr. Arya's room in the care.
"How is my papa doc?" ask Alex.
"Sorry sir, the current condition of Mr. Arya is very bad. He was in a coma" the doctor replied timidly.
"What's? How can papa comma? Doctor don't play tricks on me, the doctor said that papa has passed his critical period. Can't you guys work properly huh?" Alex clutches the collar of the doctor's shirt. Actually he was not angry with the doctor, he just felt very sad and did not know how to vent it.
"I'm sorry young master Parvis, the condition of Mr. Arya himself who has no spirit to wake up. He wants to give up on everything. Now I can only hope for a miracle,"
"What did you say? a miracle? Do whatever it takes to make papa conscious and recover, or I'll close this hospital!" threaten Alex.
"Alex approached the glass wall, where he saw his papa rolled helplessly.
"Pa, Alex, please hold on. Alex will bring the best doctors, papa must be strong, and have spirit. Why did the doctor say that Papa wanted to give up? Is papa the same Alex? Alex still needs papa" said Alex.
"All because of you, what do you say to papa like this? say it!" alex shouted while looking at Rania hatefully.
"I, I don't know Lex, I really didn't say anything to your papa, I found him unconscious. Believe me Lex, I'm also very sad hyks hyks," said Rania as she continued to cry.
"Save your fake tears! my papa doesn't need you crying!" alex Hardik.
"Mas, already. Now is not the time to blame each other. We have to pray a lot that Papa Arya will quickly wake up from the coma" said Anes while stroking her husband's chest.
The atmosphere became quiet, no one spoke. They were silent with their own sadness and thoughts.

The flashback
While sleeping, Mr. Arya fumbled over the bed beside him, empty there was no figure of Rania there. Slowly Mr. Arya opened his eyes and took the glasses he put on the nightstand.
"Where's Rania?" muttered arya sir. Then, he got out of bed to look for Rania. She faintly heard the sound of people talking on the phone on the balcony of her room.
"Rania? Who's this night calling him?" inner mr. Arya. He intends to call Rania back into the room because it is cold outside.
However, not yet had time to call, Mr. Arya heard clearly what Rania was saying to the person across the phone.
"Well, you don't talk about that old Aryan. I'm lazy to talk about it. You know, I'm now stuck in a marriage with that old man. If only I had known Alex was his son, I'd rather be his son-in-law than his wife. Hah I am indeed a fool, leaving Alex for such a middle-aged man. All to guarantee my future. Now Alex is married, and I'm stuck with his father" Rania said, not realizing that Mr. Arya eavesdropped on his talk.
"What does he mean? So all this time he just wanted my treasure. And what does it mean that he prefers to be my daughter-in-law? What does this have to do with Alex?" inner mr. Arya.
"......" I don't know what Rania's interlocutor said, which is probably her friend.
"Huh, are you crazy? if I told Arya that I was Alex's ex, and that time I left Alex to marry her, I would have been dumped by Arya. He loves me very much, but he loves his son more. And I have no reason not to leave if I get kicked out of here. You know for yourself, until now the man couldn't get me pregnant. Just try if I have a child from him, maybe it can be used as a weapon" complained Rania to her friend.
"So he and Alex used to be in a relationship? and I took it from my own son? What kind of father am I," Mr. Arya cursed himself after hearing all the money Rania was talking about.
Shortly after, Rania ends her phone call. He wants to go back into the room. However, his steps came to a halt when he saw that Mr. Arya was already standing before him.
"Mas," said Rania shocked.
"Did he hear my talk?" Rania wondered in her heart.
"Why did you wake up? let's go back to sleep, it's still night" Rania asked.
"Tell me the truth, Rania," said Mr. Arya in a low voice.
"What do you mean?" Rania pretended not to understand.
"I've heard everything, tell me the truth. I want to hear straight from your mouth" said Mr. Arya flatly. He tried to hold tightness in his chest.
"Mas, listen to me first, everything is not as you heard, I can explain everything," Rania tried to dodge.
"Say Rania, was it true that you were Alex's lover before we got married? And you dumped her to marry me, huh? Answer!" mr. Arya was already unable to contain his emotions.
"Yes! I was his first love Alex, I was willing to leave him and marry you when your son loved me and me, I loved him too. You know everything now, right?" sahut Rania honest. He feels useless also lying for now, because in fact Mr. Arya has heard everything.
"How are you feeling now? have you hurt your own child? sick right? Just as painful as it was when I found out, Alex was in a match with that damn woman. And it hurts even more when I hear that they love each other. I'm sick every time I hear that word because until now I still love Alex, I'm going to reclaim what should be mine," rania said loudly but tears fell from her eyes.
"You're rude, how dare you deceive me all this time Rania, you woman don't know yourself" Mr. Arya raised one of his stairs to slap his wife. But suddenly he felt a great pain in his chest. He held onto his chest, slowly falling down and unconscious.
"Mas, Arya woke up!" Rania tried to rub the body of Mr. Arya, but for free, her husband was unconscious.
