Sheila rolled her eyeballs a lazy omen, when she saw Marchel standing in front of her. The doctor who saw Sheila as lazy to meet her only replied with a smile.
"What are you doing here?" ask Marchel.
"It's none of Mr. Marchel's business" he answered, then left the place.
"Sheila wait!" marchel's call stopped Sheila's footsteps. He immediately approached the woman and grabbed her wrist.
As usual, Sheila was cold to Marchel, trying to take her hand off. "Take me off!"
"No will! We need to talk, Sheila."
"What else? I don't want to talk to Brother Marchel."
Suddenly Ms. Fifi came out of Chella's room, making Sheila and Marchel's debate pause. "What's up, Sheila?"
Marchel was silent, but her hand was still tightly clasping Sheila's hand.
"It's okay, Mom. I was just chatting for a while with Doctor Marchel," Sheila replied.
"Alright, I have to go ahead and see the kids."
"Please, Mom..."
The woman had already gone away, leaving Sheila and Marchel in front of the room where Chella was.
"Now let me go!" snapped it.
"Sheila's... Please listen to me." Marchel softened her voice. Touching Sheila's shoulders, right and left. "I know I was wrong for leaving you for so long. I've made you suffer for months. And it was my fault we lost Angel. Like you, I suffer too. Do you think I've been calm for four years? No, Sheila. I feel what you feel too. I'm so sorry."
Sheila stared intently at Marchel. "Then? Can Brother Marchel's regret take away my suffering? Can Brother Marchel regret erasing those bad memories from my life? No, right?"
"I know that my regrets mean nothing to you. But please don't punish me like this. Living four years in guilt is not easy. I've been looking for you everywhere. I want to start everything from the beginning with you."
Sheila dropped a drop of her tears. "From the beginning we shouldn't have married. Yes, our marriage was a mistake. So please let me go. Let's get a divorce."
"No! I'll never let you go. I'll wait until whenever your anger subsides."
"But my hatred for you can never be removed!" sheila shouted as she wiped away her tears. "Did you remember? What were you talking about that night? You said you could never accept me, right? You just pretended you could accept me, and I was stupid to believe it. I'm just a geeky girl who's not your taste at all. I'm not a perfect woman like Shan. You don't even trust me and doubt your own son. What is my fault, Mr Marchel? Why did you do all that to me?"
Like a merapi mountain ready to spew its lava, Sheila was so overcome with anger. His disappointment and heartache in Marchel were so great, it was shed in his tears.
Marchel grabbed Sheila's body, hugging her tightly. Sheila tried to rebel, but the more tightly Marchel hugged her.
"I love you Sheila. I'm sorry I realized it too late. It took me a long time to recognize my own feelings. Until you and our son become victims. Give me one more chance to make amends for all my mistakes."
Marchel dropped a drop of her tears, trying to grab Sheila's hand once again. However, Sheila remains reluctant to be touched by Marchel.
"You want me to forgive you? You want me to give you a second chance? There's only one way I can forgive you. Return my son! Can Brother Marchel?"
Marchel had not yet answered, a voice had been heard coming from the room.
"Huwaaaaa Mother!!" chella shouted accompanied by sobs. And that right shocked Marchel and Sheila, too. They then race each other into the room.
Sheila grabs Chella's small body and takes her to her lap. He kept trying to calm the little girl.
"Chella why? Where's that sick?" sheila asked as she hugged the child, rubbing her head gently. Marchel squatted in front of Sheila, rubbing Chella's back.
"Mothers... Mothers... Mum..." Chella started calling her mother.
"Mother?" Sheila who still does not know how to calm a crying child can only hug Chella.
"Chella was used to this when she was sick" Marchel said. "He would cry looking for his mother when he just woke up. Her mother died giving birth to her."
Why do I feel so strange? What is this feeling? inner Sheila.
"Chella's... The same with the Doctor, yes." - Marchel. However, for the first time, Chella who is usually immediately destroyed by Marchel prefers to remain Sheila needed.
"Yes, same sister, yes." said Sheila.
Chella who was still hiccupping replied with a nod. His eyes are soft, indicating that the child is still sleepy. After a while, the little boy fell asleep again.
"I'll be here with Chella" Sheila said without looking at Marchel, as if she had signaled that Marchel had left her.
"All right, I'm going."
Marchel rubbed the top of Chella's head before stepping. However, just in the doorway, Chella again cried, so Marchel immediately approached.
"Let me. Chella was a bit cranky when she was sick." Marchel grabs Chella's small body from Sheila's lap.
"Why don't we just take him to the hospital?" ask Sheila. Worried to see Chella's slightly pale face.
"That's not necessary. Chella will improve after taking the medicine. Not all relapsing pains should receive intensive care."
That day, Sheila and Marchel keep Chella there, until nightfall. Chella didn't even let Sheila or Marchel get away from her. The child will cry if he does not see any of them.
