"... I also want to apologize to him" a woman's voice said.
All eyes turned towards the two people who were walking slowly up the steps of the stairs.
The graceful woman wearing a blazer suit and black pants in line with the heels was also a hand bag that she held in her left hand, grabbing the attention of many pairs of eyes in Joglo belonging to the late Danuarta.
Davina was puzzled as to why so many people came in broad daylight. It all has to do with the past.
"Sorry, who are you?" ask the owner of the house when the woman has entered to join them in Joglo.
Asyraf hamid was still standing in his place. He took off the glasses perched on his nose while lowering his face. "I'm Vega Gianina, Akbar's secretary sanjaya, first."
Ezra folded his hands in front of his chest. An exciting show is about to take place, exactly as he wishes. The man who owns the eagle netra gave the code to Leon.
Aspri special belonging to the family Qavi sigap, he responded to receive all the cues of the leader. Just as it was about to move from there, a voice stopped Leon's movements.
"Nobody can get out of here, before it's all clear and over," Davina's loud and unequivocal voice, held Leon back.
"Please sit down, Mrs Vega. Whether what your needs are and what this has to do with all of this .. whether good or bad, I try to hold back until you finish saying something" said Princess Danuarta.
"It turns out to be true, it was you who hid my daughter," Akbar growled. His hands clenched and swung in preparation to beat Vega.
Tapps. Andre parried Akbar's punch.
"You want to continue or jotos first? if you want to fight each other, I say," said the Madam again.
They were silent no longer speaking.
"OK good. I explained .. My name is Vega Gianina, Akbar Sanjaya's secretary and Arabella's best friend while studying in Bandung before she moved to Australia," Asyraf Hamid said.
"What!" Akbar and Anastasya, in unison, respond to the secretary's confession. The two Sanjaya did not think that the women had any close ties because Arabella never said anything.
When he accepted Vega as secretary, not at Arabella's request. But the girl passed the test with brilliant grades.
"What was Arabella supportive of when Vega came in first?" inner Akbar.
Ezra and Leon, enjoy the live broadcast spectacle. Sitting sweetly on my feet, displaying a sliced smile.
Asyraf hamid linked his fingers, glancing at Andre, the beloved assistant. The man nodded faintly as if strengthening the madam's mentality.
Huft. Vega took a breath and gruffly blew.
"A quick look at Akbar's statement about the letter that did not arrive, it was because I held him back so that he did not read Madam Devana's message," Vega explained, glancing at Akbar who was sitting on his side chair.
"You!!!" pekik Akbar started to return emotions.
Asyraf hamid ignored Akbar's babble and mockery of him, he wanted to continue the story but was caught by Ezra's question.
"What underlies you doing that?" Emery's son spoke this time.
Asyraf hamid, turned his head firmly to Ezra who was sitting on the long chair to his left.
"Money Arabella. I came from out of town intending to catch up with my husband who fled to Jakarta because he was in debt."
Vega Gianina, closed her eyes for a moment. Maybe his heart was raging in light of the dark events. With a discordant voice, as if holding back a sobbing, he continued the story.
"Walking too late because it was not able to pay the boarding room rent until it was removed .. both soles of the feet were injured then I chose to rest for a while sitting on the outskirts of the supermarket shop ... maybe it was thought that God knew what His servant needed. He brought in Arabella, I accidentally saw her while he was stuffing groceries in the trunk."
"The heart does not believe but it is true that he is my friend. Long story short, he was willing to help me in exchange for doing something. Arabella suspects that her husband is having an affair. It's my job to make sure of that and report what Akbar did to him."
"Until one day, Arabella's conjecture was proved. It turned out that the husband's first wife was pregnant and threatened Anastasya's position as the sole heir. Akbar's grandfather said that children born to the first wife are more entitled to bear the title. Arabella stress up to...."
Tik tok tik tok.
Pause a few moments.
Silent.
As if no one dared to draw and exhale, waiting for the continuation of the story.
Vega Gianina lowered her father's face, the harder it was to continue the confession of the past.
"I was afraid to be killed by Arabella. However, also worried that the child I threw away will have bad luck even though she is the daughter of a prominent family...."
Ashraf hamid wept bitterly. "I'm sorry."
With a raucous voice and a severed breath holding down the sobs, he continued speaking.
"I write as I can, grabbing what's on the baby's body as it's stuff to find as-al her proposal kemu-dian ha-ri...."
Andre got up to grab the tissue box from the side table and walked over and placed it on Vega's lap.
Pause. Asyraf hamid wipes the tears that run down the face, as well as the liquid that drips from his nose.
"Ara-bella asked me to use the big master's car so that no one would be suspicious. But after throwing away the little princess, I asked the driver to stop .. and then step down for a moment, run to the original place, make sure that the baby is safe and someone has saved...."
"I know .. hiks hiks .. I know .. the woman cried when she saw the baby I threw away, the sad face was still reflected in the memory," Vega's tears grew.
Davina was stunned to hear Vega's confession, her face flushed red, spewing out earthy, fine lines. Spotting round eyes like Dilara was glaring wrath at the woman before him. His shoulders rose and fell rapidly, short and coarse breaths began to dominate the graceful woman.
Vega continues the story.
"Because I feel my life is threatened. Also heard news from the art that Arabella did not escape the beating of the Sepuh. I fled to Singapore with savings all this time, living a new life but being overshadowed by fear."
"Ashraf Hamid, pulled me over after our introduction in an accidental banquet. Thanks to him, I found the goddamn husband, filed for divorce with him, and then had plastic surgery on his face and received Asyraf's proposal. My goal is one, so that Akbar and his family can find it difficult to find my trail" said Vega Gianina.
"Each me. All this I had to do in return for Arabella."
Davina got up from her seat. "Look at me, Mrs Asyraf or whoever you are" said the owner.
Vega Gianina showed the face of ayu who had been covered in tears.
Plakk. Plaakkp.
"Mrs!" Andre was upset, did not accept Vega was treated harshly.
"Shut up on the spot!" mad at Davina's personal assistant to Andre.
"Two slaps aren't enough for you. Do you realize what you're saying, return the favor? but you cut off a child!! destroy their future!!" Davina's wrathful, her hands still clenched.
"Your wife, Arabella my brother's abuser is suffering!?" show Davina to Akbar and Anastasya.
Akbar was limp, his sturdy body was hollow like no support bone. How stupid he has been all this time. Even Anastasya, hysterically heard the confession of his father's secretary.
"No. You're a liar, you son of a bitch!!" the Arabella princess shouted at Vega.
Vega ignores Anastasya's makian. He was attracted to the shiny object on the table.
"E, this is your grandfather's pin, Akbar. Eagles Budiraga ..he who slandered Emery so that you do not suspect Arabella because your in-laws threatened to withdraw funds to your company," concluded Vega.
Ezra smiled cynically at his rival and in-laws. All debate arguments with Akbar were broken by Vega.
"Dad, grandpa, Arabella. Everyone was involved in Vega's act of throwing away my daughter" said a middle-aged man named Akbar.
He stood up, limp. The twilight face grew deathly pale, his brain frozen, his fragile heart shattered into pieces betrayed by those closest to him.
"Akbar, give your blessing and be Dilara's guardian to return to her husband." Asyraf hamid asked his former boss first.
"Dilara ... My daughter, Dila, where she is.." murmured Akbar was about to approach Ezra.
"No, Papa can't, Ezra is mine. Mine," Anastasya's cry shook his father's broken arm.
"So this is ... the story?"
