Reynald could not stem his tears when he saw his little daughter lying unconscious in the ICU room. His daughter's face was very similar to hers.
There was a huge disappointment for Angel. She does not understand why Angel hid her pregnancy and married other men. Why didn't the woman hold her answer.? Why choose to leave with this big secret.
"The father who will donate blood,,?" Ask the nun who approached Reynald. The man nodded weakly.
"Let's come with me, sir,,"
Reynald stood up, walking gontai following the nurse.
"Rey,," Call Angel with so much guilt. There was no intention to hide Alisha from her, but Angel had no choice but to maintain her pregnancy.
Reynald turned his head, staring disappointedly at Angel. But he said nothing and just walked past Angel.
"Here you go, don't feel guilty anymore," Dion took Angel into his arms. Gently rubbing Angel's back to calm her down.
"You can solve your problems after this." Said Dion gently.
Since she agreed to marry Angel, she was ready to accept the child in Angel's womb at that time. Dion even patiently waited for 1 year until Angel could finally love him and forget Reynald.
The 1-child widower never took issue with Angel's past, nor did he bring up where Alisha came from. Dion already considers Alisha as her own daughter.
"Thank you, man," Angel sobbed, she hugged Dion tightly.
Guilt always haunts Angel against men who have been very patient to deal with it.
Dion was willing to accept him as he was, but Angel's reply was always painful. She was cold and would not sleep one room with Dion for nearly 1 year of marriage.
In the end, the patient and sincere attitude shown by Dion, makes Angel slowly love him and can forget Reynald.
...***...
Reynald just finished taking blood. The man sat down in front of the ICU. He still does not believe in the reality that he receives at this time.4 years passed, Angel returned with surprising news.
Seeing this, Dion tells Angel to explain to Reynald. He asked his wife to solve her problems in the past.
"I believe in you," said Dion, wiping Angel's hand. The woman looked at Dion with glazed eyes. There was no man as mature and as patient as Dion, not even Reynald, whom he once loved dearly
mature and patient husband.
Angel nodded slowly, he got up from his seat and approached Reynald.
The woman hesitated to sit next to Reynald. But as he glanced at Dion, the man nodded slowly. Allowing Angel to sit next to her beloved's matan.
"Sorry," That's the first word out of Angel's mouth. He no longer knows what to say.
Angel realized, he was wrong because he had hidden this big fact from Reynald. The man is the biological father of his daughter, but Reynald doesn't even know about her pregnancy.
"You think an apology can bring back everything you've lost.?!" Reynald.
"I lost my happiness then, and you took away my flesh and blood.!!"
"Why.? Why are you hiding all this from me.?!" Reynald gripped Angel's arm. The woman even grimaced in pain.
"Once Rey, you hurt me." Pinta Angel with a soft voice.
"It's not worth what you've done to me.!" As if dissatisfied at the whimpering Angel, Reynald clutched Angel's arm.
"You don't know the suffering I've been through for choosing to keep Alisha." Angel said in a trembling voice.
"It's not for no reason that I left you and got married to Dion's mother.!" Angel's tone grew even higher, although it still shook withstanding the cries.
"When I'm gonna tell you about the pregnancy, mom and dad know it first. They knew it was time your company was destroyed."
"There were only two choices they gave me. Married to Dion's mas, or aborted my womb."
"If I don't leave you, then Alisha won't be born into this world.!" Firm Angel. Clear circles escaped from his eye peluk.
Slowly Reynald's hand began to loosen. The man was nailing with all the thoughts that were whipping in his mind.
"It's all gone, Rey. Me and Dion are happy with our little family."
"I beg your pardon. I have no intention of taking away your happiness."
"You know very well how I felt about you back then. I'm not leaving for no reason."
"Now you know about Alisha. I will not hide it from you anymore. You deserve it, too,,,"
Angel had no intention of telling Reynald about Alisha. Moreover, he was already happy with Dion who was willing to accept him as he was.
But apparently fate says something else. Under these circumstances, Angel was forced to match Reynald with Alisha.
"Give me Alisha.!" Pinta Reynald with a firm voice. His eyes were so sharp that he looked at Angel.
"You can meet him at any time, but not to give Alisha custody to you," Angel declined.
"You've been living with Alisha for over 3 years. So let her be with me that long."
Reynald.
Reynald was still resentful of Angel. Although there is still love in his heart, but the man is trying to make Angel feel the destruction he felt first.
Maybe by taking Alisha from Angel, Angel can feel how the loss of a person who is very meaningful and loved.
"You never change Rey. Still childish,,"
"Do you think Alisha wants to stay with you.? All this time he only knew Dion as his father."
"With you taking Alisha from me, not only will I suffer, but Alisha will suffer from being separated from us,,"
"I'm freeing you to meet Alisha, so that Alisha can slowly get to know you as her biological father."
"Give him a choice when he grows up,,"
Reynald did not give any response. He just grabbed her hair.
Just because of the treasure, he had to lose the person he loved. Also separated from her child.
"I know this isn't easy for you. But try to accept all of this. Forget the painful past and start with a new life to welcome true happiness."
"You better go home now, come back when Alisha is awake. I'll call you later,,"
Angel could see Reynald's state was so chaotic. It seems like the man needs a break.
Angel knows, this fact actually makes Reynald more disappointed and worse.
"I'll wait here," Reynald replied flatly.
"What about your lover.? He's gotta be waiting for you to come home,,,"
Angel just remembered the woman who was in Reynald's apartment. He thinks Karin is Reynald's girlfriend.
Reynald was silent for a moment. He also does not remember Karin.
"She's my wife" Reynald said. He moved from his seat.
"Call me when Alisha's awake," he asked. This time Reynald looked much calmer, no longer carried away by emotions like that.
"Geez, he's going to think like that" Angel cried.
"Go home, explain everything to your wife,,,"
Reynald simply nodded, then hurried to leave the place.
Reynald drove his car at a fast speed. Split the road in the early hours.
The man wasn't even sure if Karin hadn't fallen asleep.
I don't know why he was scared. Afraid that Karin will leave her like Angel left her and she will eventually have to separate again with her flesh and blood.
Arriving at the apartment, Reynald walked quickly to the room. He found Karin sleeping sideways against the door. Slowly Reynald approached to be sure.
Karin was already asleep.
Reynald reached out, gently rubbed Karin's head, then switched to rubbing Karin's flat stomach.
Unwilling to disturb Karin's sleep, Reynald decides to get out of the room. His mind was still muddled, he had not been able to sleep for now. It still took some time to calm down after learning of that shocking reality.
As soon as the door closed, Karin immediately turned around. He stared at the door with eyes filled with sadness and destruction.
The woman was just lying asleep, she wasn't ready to listen to the harsh reality of Reynald's mouth.
Karin is increasingly unsure of lasting any longer. Reynald's past was too much for him to accept.
It seemed to hold on until the child she gave birth to would be the right decision.
She didn't need a husband just to feel happiness, because before meeting Reynald her life was much happier.
