Ray still clasped Tisha's hand gently, his eyes looking at the girl full of hope. Hoping that Tisha will give her a chance to change. However, Tisha was still speechless yet to answer Ray's question. And the man is still waiting for her.
He knows everyone deserves a second chance, a chance to change for the better than ever. A chance to correct his mistake.
"What do you want a chance for?" tisha asked as she put away the hand that was holding her.
"The opportunity to live with you and Rasya" Ray replied without hesitation
"If it's an opportunity, sorry I can't"
"Why?" asked Ray with a disappointed face.
"You don't remember how we got married first, brother? no trust, no sharing, no affection let alone love. We can't do that on contract. I am the only one who loves you, only I struggle with this feeling. I can't go back to someone who doesn't love me at all"
"Sha, that was when I wasn't aware of my feelings. This time and for the next I really seriously want to be in a relationship with you. Not only with you but with Rasya as well, I want us to be one happy family. Maybe you still don't believe that I love you and our son, so can I ask for a change of opportunity??"
"Replace chance?" tisha asked confused by Ray's intentions.
"The chance to be together, I'm replacing it with an opportunity to prove my feelings for you"
"W-What?" Tisha looked up at Ray, her forehead frowning, both of her eyebrows raised.
"Please, give me a chance to prove that I love you and our son" Ray tries to seduce Tisha with his words.
Tisha was silent again, not knowing what she was thinking. "I give you 3 seconds, you have to answer yes.one.two...
Tisha covered Ray's mouth with one of her index fingers, "OK, fine. I agree, I'll give you a chance. But I also have conditions"
Did I just use all this to find out who made me get into a car accident six years ago? Tisha thought
I know Tisha, you can't stand to see me sad because you still love me. Ray is confident about Tisha's feelings for her
"What's the condition?"asked Ray curiously, he started smiling.
"I'd instantly believe that you love me and Rasya, if you could find out who the person who made me, Zayn, my mother and sister were in an accident six years ago" obviously Tisha gives the conditions to Ray proving the feelings
Looking for the mastermind behind the accident? for six years I've been looking for him, but I haven't been found. I'm suspicious of Zevanya but I don't have any proof. I had to hire some other great men to find the whereabouts of the missing truck driver. Because he is the key to everything.
"Sister Ray? you hear me? can you?" ask Tisha to the man
Ray's one hand stroked Tisha's cheek gently, his gaze also warming the heart. "Without you asking me to look for him for a long time. The one who has made you part from me, I will not let go. Tisha. I'll find her, so stay here for two months"
"Two months?"
"Hm. live in this house, and I will show you my feelings, as well as our son. In those two months, or before those two months, I promised I'd find the culprit. I promise.."
"Well, I'll trust you this time. But, whether it's a matter of staying here or not I can't decide it alone. It all depends on Rasya"
"If Rasya agrees to stay here, will you stay?" ask Ray
"Yes" she answered briefly
"All right"
Hope you can keep my trust, brother Ray. Tisha's Hope for Ray.
After their conversation, Tisha helps Ray to take a nap without sleeping pills. Forcibly, Tisha massages Ray's head because he has thrown away all the medicine.
"You have to take responsibility"
"It's me being responsible, go to sleep. You can get sick if you don't sleep" said Tisha who is still massaging Ray's head, Ray deliberately sitting on Tisha's thigh. "Sister Ray.."
"I need a pillow, I can sleep on your lap" he said whining
"Sister Ray, don't be spoiled! be thankful for the heart!" tisha exclaimed annoyed that the man was sitting on her lap.
"Please just for a second. Let me sleep here, so that I don't have nightmares and sleep well" Ray said, seizing the opportunity to hold Tisha's hand.
"You are yes, well I will let you this time. After you sleep well, I'll kick you!" threaten Tisha who tried to look fierce in front of Ray
"You won't have the heart" said Ray sure, looking sweet smile on his lips.
"Easy! sleep fast!" Tisha continued her activities of massaging Ray's head gently.
Ray's eyes begin to close, the massage from the woman makes her comfortable."Like I'm gonna sleep soon"
"Don't keep talking, you have to sleep." said Tisha softly
"Yes, like her I can sleep well if you and Rasya are by my side. I'm not gonna have nightmares anymore.. Tisha, thank you for giving me a chance" Ray closed his eyes and fell asleep in Tisha's lap.
How much love or guilt is there in Ray's heart for Tisha and Rasya? so that made him unable to sleep well for six years without them. Tisha began to pity, there was an uncomfortable feeling in her heart seeing Ray's condition. He felt that Ray's thin body, black eye bags, clearly his life was not good.
"Why don't you live well, brother? why do you have to torture yourself? why are you still alone? not with that woman and live happily with her. Didn't you love her so much that you died? my son and I are gone but why are you chasing me? why are you looking for me and Rasya? Live well brother.you must live well even without me" he said to the man who was sound asleep on his lap. His eyes glared tearfully, his heart still there was love for Ray.
Tisha stroked Ray's head gently. The more he sees Ray, the more he sees his own son Rasya. It's just that Rasya is in a big size.
"Your face has not changed at all, but six years have passed. You always look young, cheating" Tisha muttered to the man.
****
I don't know how long Tisha was in bed with Rasya. Tisha saw her son sitting on the bed.
"Mama's awake?" rasha asked with her innocent face, smiling at her mama
"Astagfirefullah!! mama overslept, baby you're okay, right? did you wake up from that?" panicked Tisha asked straight out of her bed and sat down.
"Don't panic, I'm fine. I ate the cake when the doughnuts were fed to the papa" Rasya answered cheerfully
"Where is your papa?" ask Tisha who didn't see Ray there.
"Papa said he wanted to go and teach the witch a lesson" Rasya replied while eating a chocolate donut that was there.
"Magic grandmother?" tisha asked confused as to who Rasya meant as the witch.
