RICH MAN
DON'T REPEAT AGAIN

"Rey, where's Papa?"

Om Dimas asked where his papa was. Rey did not find her father there either. He had no idea where the man had gone since this afternoon after taking the fish along with Om Reno.

Rey and Leo who enjoy the grilled fish immediately moved to the swing. But after Leo's phone rang, his cousin immediately left Rey alone there. Moments later, her Papa came with such a shabby expression.

With so much worry and question marks, Rey approached and gave her papa a drink in the back garden seat of her home. "What's up, Papa?"

"Rey, do you know Amanda's our foundation's son?"

Rey nodded, she remembered with a different girl one year from her. However, the girl was less fortunate to be dumped by her parents because of illness, her papa handed her the brown envelope that her father had brought. She read Amanda's history of the same disease as Syakila used to. There is a leak in the heart.

"Papa, what now?"

"The next time he's operating, Rey. But Papa just found out he's in the hospital, because too busy Papa doesn't know he was taken to the hospital and the hospital fee is already borne by someone else,"

"Who?"

"If Papa says, promise will not be the same story with others, including Mama?"

Rey scrunched her forehead, "Promise, Pa," she said convincingly.

"That took Amanda to that hospital, Leo. And all the hospital fees he's charged with his monthly ration money from Om Reno, Papa lamented he didn't say the same, Papa. Papa knew it was after the data he had in the hospital, he's the one who bore the cost of that treatment,"

So, unanswered was what made Aunt Naura, angry. And it's true what Rey said this afternoon, that Leo helped others with the money. It is also impossible for Leo to waste that much money.

"Who, what car keys?"

His father handed him the keys to the car, "This hospital, and Amanda's handler is Teddy, Rey. Don't go there if you're not ready, Papa also doesn't think that all this will be a coincidence, for Amanda's operating costs, everything has been taken care of. But what makes Papa suffer, is that Papa does not want to lose again for the second time, even though Amanda is not a biological child, Papa. In any case, if the case is the same. All of that makes those past memories repeat themselves, Rey,"

Rey nodded softly, saying goodbye to her father to catch up with Leo after seeing his cousin running away from the place. "Don't tell Mama, I'm a permit,"

He ran away panting and started the engine, driving recklessly, and Leo was waiting for the vehicle in front of the compound, "Good, Leo,"

"I want to go somewhere,"

"I know, you want to go to the hospital,"

Leo looked at him, and at a glance the man got into the car. Rey drove the car very carefully. With feelings of anxiety, it is also impossible for him to harm himself and also harm Leo who is in a state of anxiety.

A few minutes after their trip. The two young men arrive at one of the hospitals, Rey who gets out of her car and immediately runs after, Leo. However, his steps came to a halt when he saw Leo crying hugging Amanda, all this time he did not know that Leo turned out to be close to Amanda who even Rey herself did not expect her cousin would have a great sense of care for others.

"Rey!"

Rey turned around after hearing the words of a man who was no stranger to her, she turned her head and found Teddy standing there. "Of,"

"Would you like to visit your Papa's foster son?"

Rey nodded, and Teddy kept trying to get her to chat. Rey who tries not to hate the man according to what her mother ordered. He was sick, very sick when he got the unpleasant treatment from Teddy first.

Arriving at the hospital park, Rey sits on a white bench directly opposite the ER. "Sorry about that time, Rey,"

"Om, I never hated the same, Om,"

"However Om ever made you suffer, if only Om was not rude to you with an attitude of Om who does not care. Of course you still call Om Papa,"

"Om, I never get angry, never hate. Maybe at that time I did not understand what Om was doing with me. But, after all Om has ever given happiness in the midst of loneliness and sadness. Although in the end I also lost my sister because of Om's actions that made Mama wretched. But, all those are memories of the past, everyone's done wrong, Papa, Om, Mama, everything's wrong. There I'm not wrong anyone, but maybe it's your destiny that gets there and maybe Papa and Mama are arranged, even though they were originally separated,"

"Rey, Mama, how are you?"

"Good mom, how's Om himself? I'm with Om got a foster kid?"

"May Om be happy with his new wife and children. By the way, I heard from Papa, if Om's gonna be operating, Amanda?"

"Yes, Rey. It reminds me of past events. Which is where Om handled Syakila, your sister. It's really the same,"

"So from that, I don't want to lose anymore. Um gotta help, Amanda,"

The man beside Rey rubbed Rey's back gently. "It turns out you're an adult, son. Om bakalan bantuin, the day after surgery was successful. And salute your cousin who took Amanda right to the hospital, Om knew it was from your Papa earlier. Leo came to take Amanda and pay for all the treatment costs,"

"Love is strong, o'm. No matter the situation,"

"So you yourself haven't found it yet? Is it okay Papa can't get you close to women?"

"There,"

"Oh now Rey is an adult and has a lover,"

"What the hell, Om. Well, congratulations Amanda, I don't want Leo to experience the same thing I did,"

"If the operation is successful, Rey's sorry Om?"

"Om, I have to promise, first,"

"I can't promise. The one who decides on the life and death of that person is just God, Om it's just an intermediary, Rey,"

"But I'll help prayer, Om that effort. If it works, I'll be sorry Om. If not, watch out,"

"Thank you, yeah. I will try my best."

Rey smiled, Anyway, the man will operate on Amanda. Rey returns to the room where Amanda was taken care of.

Rey standing behind the two, she recalled some time ago Leo did tell the woman he liked, but did not say that it was Amanda. It was also then that she saw Leo swiping at Amanda and giving her spirit.

Both of them may not realize that they are behind. There were sobs from Amanda who wanted to give up on her life. "There I am, I love you. You must try to survive for me. If your own parents throw you away because of this, then I accept you under these circumstances,"

"Leo, uh,"

"Don't say too much, I just want you to get well,"

"Where did you get that kind of money to bring me here?"

"You should know that I want you to live. Nemenin me until I become a successful person, I'll be happy with you,"

"But what about your parents?"

"Don't mind that, I just want you to heal. No matter with those who agree what no, it's business later. I just want you to heal, we never know anyone else's feelings, right?"

"Leo, what if Rey finds out?"

"He knows this, he knows what I'm doing all this for you,"

"Will he report to your parents?"

"I also want you to live, Amanda. You're also part of my family, even though we don't live in one house. But Papa I've been trying to give you the best, and Papa I've also financed your operation because he wants you to live. You're valuable to everyone" Rey said from behind. Both are looking straight.

"Sister" said Leo slowly.

"Trust me everything will be fine as long as you believe that you too can be healed, Amanda."

Rey does not want to lose a second time with the same disease, she gave a smile when her feelings were so bitter considering Syakila's cry was in her papa's arms. Perhaps his father is currently experiencing feelings that are also very sick because of the disease.
