Papa To Oleander
57. The Answer That Will Never Change

Goslings

"Maybe it's just a coincidence, or whatever. But, Om believes that such a small child can already feel sincerity and capture one's intentions. And he can feel that you are a good person. And you are. Seriously.

"Well, now is the next line of questions. Are you aware of what happened to Olavia? Who's Oleander's father, what's their story, a little bit you've got an idea about it, don't you?"

I nodded again. I know the answer to all of that. Unbeknownst to Om Arif and Aunt Yuni, I not only had some ideas about how it happened, but I was also involved and was in the midst of the disaster. The disaster ended a miracle for me and Olavia.

"Are you sure that someday, Oleander and her origin won't be a problem for you? Are you sure you can accept that situation? You know, Oleander is the thing that will always connect Olavia with the man from her past. Their bond will never break. Despite the fact that until now he still disappeared. However, this situation is not impossible to change. It could be that one day that nameless fucking guy shows up in your midst, right? Have you thought about that possibility? What do you think you're going to do? What's your attitude?"

The middle-aged man tapped his hands that were clasping each other on the table slowly. The sound of tuk, tuk, tuk that was heard was sourced from the contact between the wooden table and his expensive watch chain.

"But, yes, that's it, Ngga. Sorry for asking you to wait again. He only does his job as a father. Om is just trying to make up for Om's failure to keep our only daughter. It's not that we regret Oleander's whereabouts, no. We only feel guilty that Olavia had to undergo such destruction first. Once again Om apologizes to you, yes, Ngga."

Shxt. I had no idea that Om Arif and Aunt Yuni also felt the same guilt that Oliver had suffered. I should have known that. I should have known and I considered their feelings as well.

But deep down, no matter what questions arise about Olavia and Oleander, I know I will always do my best for them. I will always be next to them. I will never leave them. "I understand, Om. Om don't have to apologize. Even if I was in Om's position, maybe I would do the same. And I also want to thank you for the trust and hope that Om and Auntie feel for me. I would also like to thank you for the blessing given.

"I don't care if Oleander can understand what he's saying or if it's just a coincidence, Om. Clearly, deep down, I still want to have Olavia as a whole. I want to be Papa to Oleander. I don't care if I have to wait one, two years or more. Obviously, I will wait for Olavia until any time. I just want Olavia and Oleander, Om. Point."
