Gideon escorted Herlena to Stephen's mansion to settle the divorce papers. Herlena was nervous when she was going to see Stephen. Herlena feared that Stephen would accuse her of nothing and blame Gideon. Gideon who was beside Herlena also felt what she felt. So Gideon clasped Herlena's hand to give her strength while saying, “quiet, don't think about anything bad. I'm right next to you. Whatever happens I will protect you. Trust me”, looking into Herlena's trembling eyes.
Herlena nodded her head after gaining the composure of Gideon. Then Herlena took a deep breath and exhaled to calm the nervousness on her.
Some time later Gideon and Herlena had reached the former residence he had occupied. Herlena recalled building her household in the beginning with Stephen. Herlena also recalled the moment with Thomas running small until he fell and cried and whined in front of Stephen complaining that he had fallen because of him. When she remembered that Herlena could not hold back the tears that came from her eyes. As she recalled the moment, Gideon spread his voice to invite her in and Herlena wiped away the tears and entered with Gideon.
By the time he was about to press the bell, Stephen had already come out of the mansion with crossed eyes while blaming Herlena who had dared to cheat behind him.
Herlena listened to the words of Stephen's lips, unable to hold back her anger until Herlena slapped hard until Stephen's head turned to the left.
Then Herlena warned Stephen with her index finger pointing to his face.
“Who did you say was cheating? I warned ya! The one who cheated on you! He's here with me to seek justice not what you think!”, with tears dripping down.
“I'm here to pick up divorce papers”, furious.
“Sorry, I will never divorce you. I will never give the divorce papers so that you can not be with this brengs*k guy”, said Stephen in a low tone.
“If I suffer you also have to bear it”, stephen's return made Gideon clench his fist and raise his fist, but Stephen's body was thrown backwards due to a blow from Thomas coming from behind without a word, making Herlena surprised as well as Gideon.
Then Thomas pulled out Stephen's collar with his eyes blocked like he wanted to kill his father by saying, “I don't think I have a daddy bangs*t like you. I will make a calculation for you for hurting momy even though you are my daddy”, by removing her collar and gruffly slashing her body.
Stephen could only remain silent and clenched his hands when humiliated by his son in front of Gideon.
Herlena who was in the middle of the feud just cried and felt guilty to Thomas because he made Thomas hate his real father. While Gideon who saw Thomas defending his mother was happy.
While Stephen felt hit by his pride in front of Gideon. Then Herlena threatened that if Stephen did not sign the divorce papers immediately he would sue the court with his chosen lawyer while leaving Stephen who was sitting on the floor and followed by Gideon with a cynical smile before Stephen. Thomas also left Stephen alone with mounting anger.
After their departure, Stephen received word that Lauren had left his mansion. The news that in can make Stefanus added to his anger by shouting loudly while holding his head.
His subordinates were frightened by Stephen's anger and they dared not approach. They just left at Stephen's mansion.
When Stephen was venting his anger in his mansion. Now Herlena told Thomas to come to the restaurant to talk about something about the feelings that are currently disturbing Herlena's mind and heart.
Thomas is unemployed and grants Herlena's request to have a one-on-one conversation with Gideon.
Thomas got into Gideon's car. While Gideon's driver took Thomas' car to the intended restaurant.
Some time later they had reached a restaurant and got out of the car. They are looking for a place that is so indented so as not to be too noisy and visible to people. After getting a seat Gideon called the waitress at the restaurant.
Pramusaji approached them with some menu books for them to choose from. The female pramusaji gave the menu book with polite speech.
“Please select the food menu sir, madam”, he said by issuing a small notebook.
“All are equal to the master next to my momy”, Thomas said after getting approval from Herlena through the eyes.
While waiting for the waiter to bring their menu dish started the conversation at its core.
“Thomas!”, call Herlena with fingers interlocked.
“Ya mom”, says Thomas.
“How are your wife and son, Thomas?”, asked Herlena.
“Good and healthy”, says Thomas.
“Momy..uhmmm..”, Herlena said with hesitation and nervousness. Gideon next to her rubbed Herlena's shoulders. Then Herlena turned to Gideon who nodded her head as if she was giving a code to not hesitate.
“Momy wants to apologize to you Thomas”, said Herlena quickly made Thomas do not understand the words of Herlena while raising his right eyebrow.
“What's mom?”, asked Thomas.
Herlena took a deep breath and said slowly.
“Momy apologizes to you Thomas”, Herlena said.
“For what?”, asked Thomas who did not understand the intent of his momy who suddenly apologized to him.
At the time of going to throw a sentence, the waiter came to bring the dish ordered by him. The waiter put all the dishes he ordered. After laying all the dishes, the waitress withdrew respectfully while saying, “please enjoy the dish”, by passing away.
After the servant left, Herlena continued the course of her conversation.
“Thomas, momy is seriously apologizing to you for what you did to your family. Mommy wants to spend the rest of your life together. After my affair with Stephen is over momy will meet Tina and Felix to apologize for all the evil attitude momy created”, explained Herlena.
Thomas who listened to the apology and the sincere expression of feelings from Herlena's lips made his heart feel full and grateful if his momy had awakened to what he had done. Thomas looked at Gideon warmly and Gideon nodded his head as a code to give Herlena a chance at her new life. Then Thomas opened his voice.
“Mom, Thomas is happy if momy wants to change. Thomas has forgiven momy since long ago. Same with Tina and Felix. Momy doesn't have to worry. If momy wants to meet them our house is always open for momy”, Thomas smiles.
“Thank you boy”, sincerely said Herlena.
“Momy will see you soon after this divorce get a hammer” knock, continued Herlena.
“Momy will give you a surprise too. Wait for Momy to meet you”, he said back.
“It’s ok, I will wait for the surprise that will be given by momy”, Thomas said with a warm smile.
