"E.L...!!! I admit I was wrong, please forgive me...?"
"Stop saying that, it's always this time that you just say it, I'm tired of hearing it and I still don't know how you think about it...! You're so bad and so petty..!"
Elea wipes away her tears and leaves Ariel. Elea then asks Aditya to wait for Danist, while she wants to calm herself down for a while. Because if he doesn't do it, maybe he'll make a fuss here. His heart was currently not good, sadness was thinking about Danist's state as well as his anger towards Ariel all wrestling into one in his brain. Elea really needs to calm it all down.
Aditya allows Elea to leave for a while and she will be on guard here. But Aditya also reminded Elea not to do things that could hurt herself. Elea then leaves Aditya and Ariel from the operation waiting room.
Aditya looked at Ariel for a while before then he sat back down. The sad face of Ariel and her timelessness is so obvious, but Aditya does not want to say anything to his best friend, does not want to try to comfort him or calm him because he realizes that everything Elea said had a point. Aditya himself has often told Ariel to change his way of thinking about Danist and stop thinking bad things about the man but Ariel never cares about his words.
Danist never said anything bad about Ariel even though Ariel was always unkind to her. Aditya could see so clearly that Danist always tried to respect Ariel even though the position of Ariel is a sister but for Danist Ariel remains the main and has the highest rights compared to himself. Danist's sadness became clear when crying in front of him said that he wanted everything to improve, and build a good brotherhood with Ariel, even Danist also did not want to apologize from Ariel, he just wanted to hug Ariel and say that he loved Ariel very much. But all Danist desires until this moment were never fulfilled.
And today, once again Danist proves how much she loved Ariel by sacrificing her own life to save Ariel. Though he should have just called and told Ariel to leave without having to push Ariel which eventually made him replace Ariel. Then with this incident, can Ariel still avoid that Danist is a good person? Aditya does not know, and can only hope that Ariel really wants to change the situation that happened with Danist.
★★★★★★
It had been more than 30 minutes that Elea had left but had not returned as well. Aditya also did not talk to Ariel. They just sit still. Once in a while Aditya hears Ariel's prank, and when he turns his head, he finds his best friend sedanf covering his face with both hands. Aditya does not know what Ariel is currently feeling, whether his friend is regretting all his actions or he is sad because of something else, Aditya is reluctant to ask him.
"The....! Iel....!!! How's Danist doing???" Randy came half-run to his two best friends.
Behind Randy there's Mama Danist and there's Cahya. The three of them come together, where Randy drove Louis and Chitra to Aditya's parents' house after getting word from Aditya that Cahya brought Gienka and Friddie there. Mama Danist also approached Aditya, and her eyes looked puffy, since hearing this news she panicked and continued to cry in the car.
"Sir Aditya, how is Danist??" Ask.
"Danist is still in the aunt, the doctor is doing the surgery, we can only wait and pray for it to go well" Aditya then told Mama Danist to sit down, he said, and say that everything will be fine.
Aditya approached Cahya who was standing and asked why his wife was here and not looking after the children at home. Cahya then told me that when she got home, Gienka was asleep in the car. After that Randy and Chitra came with Louis, so he could make sure that Gienka would be fine because there were a lot of people there. Cahya was worried about Elea that's why she came here so that her best friend would not feel alone and could spill her grief on her.
"I can always count on you, very good work" muttered Aditya.
Cahya turned her head in the direction, she did not see Elea at all. As if to understand what his wife was looking for, Aditya told Cahya to go look for Elea, because Elea was saying goodbye to go for a while to calm herself because Elea had a dispute with Ariel, he vented all his anger at Ariel because of the man's attitude.
"Find him, and calm his heart, he's very upset and very worried about Danist, I'm sure you can do that for him, you're his best friend" Aditya said.
"I'm going to find her, you also calm Aunt Sari, she's been so shocked since then, I went to find Elea first"
★★★★★★
Cahya walked slowly trying to find Elea's whereabouts. He also goes to the cafeteria hoping Elea is there but turns out he doesn't find her. There is a green open space in the middle of the hospital, Cahya stepped there, maybe Elea looking for calm there. Cahya went around and sure enough she found Elea sitting on a bench staring at the small fountain in front of her. Cahya smiled and stepped closer to him and then sat next to his best friend.
"Everything will be fine El, Danist is a strong man, he'll go through it and open his eyes and smile at you saying that he loves you so much"
The words of Cahya, made Elea turn her head and immediately embrace Cahya. Elea could no longer hold back her tears, she cried in Cahya's arms, shedding all the sadness she had been holding back since. Elea reveals all her fears of something bad that will happen to Danist. Elea also recounts how Danist sacrificed herself just to save Ariel. He vented all the anger he had been holding back all this time to Ariel who never wanted to apologize or be kind to Danist even though Danist always hoped to be on good terms with Ariel.
"Am I wrong Ca? If I vent my anger?" Elea looked at Cahya filled with sadness.
"If it makes you feel relieved it certainly will not be wrong El, but if then all that still does not change the way Ariel thinks? We can't do anything about it. All the ways we've tried to make her aware but she's kept the same attitude, even sometimes I feel that they're all just meaningless jokes to Ariel, she never appreciates someone's sacrifice"
"That's Ca, I'm so sorry why I didn't go with Danist looking for Gienka, and I just followed her wish to get me in the car, if only I had gone with him, I would have forbidden him from doing all that, because it would never have meant anything to Ariel, and this is what is happening now, Danist why don't you think about me and the kids before you do that? He is now at a crossroads between life and death, I don't know which one he will choose, he chooses life for me and the children who are with him every day or he chooses to die for Ariel, the one who never considered him human and he was always humbled by Ariel, why did Danist do all that Ca? Wh why?? Friddie still needs him, what if something bad happens to him??? I'm so scared Ca!!" Elea tightened her arms at Cahya and sobbed bitterly.
Elea is very frightened to think about the bad thing, plus to think about how the future of her son if without Danist. All that fear further suppressed the pain he felt at this moment.
