“Ma ...,” call Vanya who goes into the inpatient room Bu Sinta.
Seeing Vanya's whereabouts made Bu Sinta smile warmly, since yesterday Denis did not appear. The doctor asked Denis to rest in the hospital given the low blood pressure due to fatigue, not to mention Frans bogeman who made himself dizzy when getting out of bed.
“Vanya, have you met Denis?”
“I-iya, Mom. But—“
“What happened?” Ms. Sinta has felt something has happened with the child because if everything was okay since yesterday the child would have accompanied her.
“Sorry ... Denis is being treated for bogeman aired Frans,” I am Vanya who made Bu Sinta widen his eyes and exhale.
“How is it?”
“Just need a break, Ma. There is nothing serious said the Doctor, it's just low blood pressure and still feels pain in the jaw,” explained Vanya who explained the condition Denis with a bad feeling.
Whatever happens because of defending him, this is his fault, thought Vanya who felt bad about the current condition.
“How are you doing, Vanya?”
“I?”
“Iya, you,” said Bu Sinta whose expression was beyond Vanya's expectations, still being kind, there was no anger on the look on the face of the former Mama-in-law.
“Mama not angry?” ask Vanya doubtfully.
“Anged? Why should you be angry?”
“Because of the Vanya, Denis—“
Vanya's speech paused when Bu Sinta shook his head so that Vanya did not continue his speech.
“Denis knows what he has to do, bogeman from Frans just assume the struggle he got you back, no need to think so deeply,” interrupted Bu Sinta who made Vanya breathe a sigh of relief.
“Thank you, Ma. Thank you,” said Vanya hugged Bu Sinta affectionately.
“Back with Denis, knit your happiness back with a fresh start.”
“Iya, Mother. Pray for us,” replied Vanya who smiled at Bu Sinta.

“It's okay, Denis?” asked Vanya worried when today Denis asked to go home, there is still much to do, especially about entangling Frans with the law, which makes Denis not at home if only rest his body on the gurney.
“Already, don't worry. I'm fine, we have to get somewhere,” Denis said leaving Vanya confused because there's our word.
“I'm coming with you?” ask Vanya who got the nod from Denis.
“Where are we going?”
“Do not ask much, just come,” invite Denis who is neatly prepared to leave the hospital room after completing all administration.
“Good.”
Denis opened the door first, clasping Vanya's hand with a fluffy smile. Vanya's heart warmed up instantly as Denis clasped his hand first, this was the first time Denis had done that to her because during their marriage, Denis was so indifferent and ignored her.
“Why?” ask Denis who saw Vanya hesitant when he wanted to step up.
“I hope this isn't a dream, Denis. You're changing, very changing now,” explained Vanya who made Denis chuckle.
“Really?”
“Ya.”
“Are you happy with my change?”
“Of course, very happy. Being acknowledged and loved by you is my greatest hope, I thought it was just hope but now it has become real, I am grateful for it.”
Denis's hand stretched out, stroking Vanya's face with a hilarious feeling. He felt his attitude was so bad towards Vanya that it was treated sweetly like now it felt just a hope that would never materialize.
“This was the fruit of your patience and prayer all along, Vanya. In the end, I realized .. You are the best woman I have to defend and fight for,” said Denis who ended with a smile that made him look handsome.
“Stone alone can be perforated by water droplets, let alone my heart, Vanya.” Denis made Vanya's eyes glaze over.
“Do you accept me for who I am, Denis? I'm just Daddy's cheating son from a woman I don't know at all,” asked Vanya who was still in doubt.
“I don't care,” replied Denis who immediately stepped foot carrying Vanya following his steps.
**
“What are we here for, Denis? I don't want to see Mommy again, I'm afraid,” said Vanya who is now in front of the apartment owned by Aunt Dira, where Vanya lived in Austria.
“Face and solve our problem, Vanya. You can't just avoid it.”
Vanya took a breath and exhaled slowly, nodding in doubt. Not long after hitting the bell, the open apartment door featured the figure of Aunt Dira in the doorway with a fierce gaze.
“Mom,” greet Vanya who take a step closer.
“What are you doing here?” ask Aunt Dira with a hostile face.
“Vanya wants to, take clothes and permission with Mommy, Vanya and Denis to remarry,” explained Vanya who increasingly makes Aunt Dira upset made.
“Then?”
“Only that, Mom.”
“Take your shirt after that scram from in front of Mommy, don't you show your look again. We already have no relationship after you decided to remarry Denis,” break up Aunt Dira which made Vanya shake her head in disbelief.
However, this is Vanya's decision, whatever the consequences he will return with Denis as Denis and himself planned from the beginning. He could not let any longer be separated from Denis because he was very sure Aunt Dira would match him with another man to smooth his business as before when he accepted marriage to the same widower once unloved at the beginning of marriage but forced to accept Denis' presence in his life.
“Vanya will do it, this is the last time Vanya set foot in this apartment, Mommy must remember about it.”
“Good .. You are free, and remember not to get a single piece of treasure from Mommy and the late Daddy.”
“If Aunt does just that then Auntie will deal with Denis. Because according to the agreement with the lawyer on Om Tommy's will, Vanya got half the assets of the family. If Aunty just drove away, Aunty could be convicted on charges of embezzlement,” threatened Denis who finally spoke up after having been silent without telling.
“You threatened me, Denis?! Yes?!” snapped Aunty Dira who was only responded to by sniffing shoulders indifferently by Denis.
“Whatever Auntie said, if this is a threat to Auntie yes no problem. Mama was a living witness when the late Om Tommy wrote the will, so do not try to take something that is not only the right of Auntie,” explained Denis who made Aunt Dira grind her teeth annoyed.
After saying that, Vanya came out of the room with 1 suitcase bag containing her clothes. Now he stared at the nanar Aunt Dira, someone who still remains considered mommy by him.
“Vanya saying goodbye,” said Vanya reached out one hand but immediately pushed aside Aunt Dira.
Denis immediately took one hand Vanya, then wrapped his hand to his arm so that Vanya is not sad and calm when he feels there is a self that is ready to entertain and always accompany.
“Never appear before mommy again, your share of property will be settled by a lawyer,” said Aunt Dira before Vanya left the room.
“Dear Mommy well,” said Vanya with a sad face mimic.
While Aunt Dira turned her face away not wanting to see Vanya leave, there was a sudden sense of sadness that enveloped her heart when she was alone in the apartment without Vanya.
“Did I lose it?” muttered Aunt Dira after Vanya and Denis. “no! I can't be weak, he's not my son, he's my husband's cheating son.” Monologue next.

“No problem, go. There are our men who are always waiting for Mama, do not worry about Mama here,” said Bu Sinta calmly.
He was not too worried when he was in Austria because all of Denis's confidants were very reliable.
“Vanya say goodbye first, Ma.”
“Iya, dear,” said Bu Sinta stroking the top of Vanya's head with affection.
They also say goodbye from the treatment room, Ms. Sinta, therapy after therapy is given so that Bu Sinta can walk and can strongly support his body weight when all the nerves return to normal after a liver transplant operation that makes half his body feel stiff.
“Why should this be remarried so soon, Denis?” ask Vanya who was still confused when Denis gave the decision to return to Indonesia to take care of their remarriage.
“I'm afraid of losing you, Vanya. Anyway this is according to the advice of the Doctor who I think is right,” replied Denis who was reminded of the advice of the Doctor who is now dealing with the disease about the vital organs he suffered.
“What did the Doctor say, Denis?” ask Vanya full of search.
Denis stopped his steps when he got the question from Vanya, he advanced his body and whispered in Vanya's ear.
“Partner in bed every night,” whispered Denis who made the fur roma Vanya shudder, “but don't think negative first, I'm just afraid Vanya khilaf especially we live in the same apartment. It is not impossible my normalcy suddenly returned.” Denis continued with a small laugh while Vanya stood like a statue to hear it.
I don't know, it seems he still doesn't believe Denis really wants to heal and make himself a partner in bed.
“I also want to have a child from you,” added Denis who smiled and pulled his footsteps again by still holding Vanya. While Vanya was silent, many questions were present in his mind and he still did not believe Denis changed now.
“Do you really love me? Or pity? Or maybe just use me to get well, Denis?” finally the question came out too.
“I won't say sweet things for you to believe, but I will prove it to you Vanya. One thing you should know, my age is not the time to play around. I am serious and serious about making this decision, if you still do not believe then look at the changes that occur in me, do not just assume based solely on what has happened in the past, he said,” said Denis full of confidence that made Vanya raise the two corners of his lips upwards forming a smile.
“I believe you,” said Vanya who got a nod and a smile of relief from Denis, they continued the journey to the airport to leave for Indonesia.

[Frans legal process has been handled to the maximum, sir. He's been thrown in jail, no bribery. I am sure he will be deterred by the prison in Austria.] A message from Denis' men that makes Denis able to breathe a sigh of relief.
[Continue monitoring and reporting on its progress.]
[Good, sir.]
Denis put the phone back in his pants pocket after reading the message, currently Denis and Vanya are already in Indonesia, the car they were riding in was heading somewhere that Denis had planned in advance from the beginning.
“I still have to ask permission with Atma, he's my son who although still a child should still be told about all this because he will be a part of us. You don't mind ‘kan?” ask Denis to make sure.
“Sure, I'll consider Atma my son too, Denis. It is not difficult to love Atma, he is a smart child and also humble,” praise Vanya.
“If there is a rejection from Atma, just be quiet let Amanda and Rama who give understanding to my son.”
“Of course.”
There was little worry that Atma would not accept Vanya, as long as Atma knew that she would only live with her grandmother and her father, not with Vanya. But Denis must still introduce Vanya as a connecting mother for him because after all, Atma must be able to accept whatever is his choice even though Denis will not force the will of course.
They have arrived in front of the Rama family mansion, previously Denis had reported his arrival to Rama and Amanda. Feeling happy, Denis got out of the car not to let go of the hand link with Vanya.
“Vanya, Denis, please come in,” warm greeting Amanda cuddle with Vanya.
“Thank you, Amanda.”
“New to?” rama asked Denis.
“Ya .. we go directly here.”
“Definitely tired,” says Amanda.
Denis and Vanya were sitting next to each other, while Rama and Amanda were sitting next to each other as well.
“Atma and the twins are there ‘kan?” asked Denis who seemed impatient, he was eager to find out Atma's response to Vanya.
“Twin is at Abi and Ummik's house, Gita same Janu there too. We have just returned from work, Atma has also started active school and doing additional tutoring activities so as usual we are busy with their respective activities. Atma after returning home from school straight break, now still in the room, relaxing while lying down,” Amanda explained.
“By his room, Amanda, Ram?” ask Denis for permission.
“Of course, we also want to change clothes, it feels sticky,” said Amanda who did look shabby face so did Rama.
“Come, I'll drop off,” said Rama who stood first, intending to escort Denis and Vanya into Atma's room.
“Alright,” says Denis who goes hand in hand with Vanya as well.
“Amanda, will Atma accept me?” ask Vanya doubt who only responded with a smile by Amanda.
“Take out your motherly side, Vanya. Atma is a difficult child to guess his way of thinking, but one thing is certain, he can feel the sincerity of someone's heart,” Amanda said before Vanya stepped foot into Atma's room.
“There we are, you guys just talk first. Later we will give understanding to Atma if there is indeed a rejection from Atma,” Rama agreed Denis.
However, Rama and Amanda are the ones who know best about conquering Atma's heart, Denis is only trying his best to introduce and convince Atma of Vanya's presence in their midst.
“Come in, I'll give you a chance to talk to Atma.”
Rama leaves the room, letting them speak without Rama's intervention as he assumes Denis can control the situation including conquering Atma's heart.
“Papa?!” peekik Atma who immediately got out of bed and ran towards Denis and hugged him tightly.
“Papa's customers are with you, son,” Denis said in the middle of his arms.
“Kok is home?” asked Atma who was confused because Denis said a new month would return to Indonesia.
“Not happy papa came home?”
“Happy dong,” says Atma who pecks Denis cheek at a glance.
“Oh yes, introduce this Aunt Vanya, Atma have met before ‘kan?”
“Hai Aunty, we meet again,” greet Atma who waved and smiled until her gigis teeth were seen.
“Hai dear, how is it?”
“Good.”
Atma reached out first, kissing the back of Vanya's hand with the kind of reverence Amanda and Rama had taught.
“Bby Papa talk?” ask Denis who now holds Atma.
“Of course.”
“Tante Vanya and Papa are getting married, Honey. And later Aunt Vanya will be the Mama for Atma,” explained Denis very carefully when explaining it.
Atma fell silent, she glanced at Denis and Vanya alternately with hard-to-picture eye gazes, while the gaze made Denis instantly become anxious.
