Leon held Janet's right hand. He looked at the woman's face with a glance. His mouth can't make a sound.
“Let go of my hand. Let me and my son go of your life forever!”
“Mommy ... Does Daddy not come?”
“No, Dear. If you don't want Mommy to cry then don't force your Daddy to come with you!”
Leonard. He looked at Leon with a glare. Eagerly hugging Leon and forcing his father to go with them, but seeing Janetha sobbing, he undoes his intentions. “Come, Mommy,” invite Leonard with tears falling.
Gala and Yara feel sorry for Janetha and Leonard, but they don't know what to do. Everyone felt the pain of Leon. All they can do, is foresee the departure of Janetha and Leonard. While Leon looks confused while removing his hand grip.
Janetha and Leonard are gone. The boy occasionally looked back with a pushy look. Leon's heart was so saddened to see that his son and the woman he loved had left with such deep wounds. He regretted, deeply regretted what he had done.
“My husband, is Chiren going to be okay? I saw him there. His steps looked heavy and his body was like he wanted to fall.”
Gala looked at Leon. “You make the decision right now. Pursue Chiren or Janetha?” gala cool.
Leon looked confused. He looked at Janetha and Leonard who were about to arrive at the border gate. And only passengers who can enter there will leave. His gaze then turned to stare at the direction that Chiren was passing by. The choice faced with him was very heavy. He had to make such a complicated decision.
Among those choices, he had to sacrifice one. There must be a wounded heart. Either it's Chiren or Janetha. But as a man, he must be able to make decisions. Although heavy and painful. If not, then he would continue to be stuck in such a situation. Not only will he be hurt, but some people will also be affected by his selfishness.
“Don't shut up! Make your choice now!” insist Gala firmly.
“I don't know who to chase! Both are very important to me!”
“Do not be selfish! Although heavy you must be firm and able to choose which one you will defend. If not then both will be gone from your life forever!”
Sweat began to drip on Leon's forehead. His gaze alternated staring at the two opposing charcoals. Chasing after Chiren who is his legal wife or chasing after Janetha and Leonard who are no less important people in his life. Leon suddenly ran towards the border door.
“Janetha!” he shouted loudly.
Janetha stopped her steps. He clutched his son's hand. Her tears kept falling. Not only Janetha, Leonard also sobbed. This made Leon very sorry for both of them.
“What else is it?” janet asked without looking back.
“I ... I love you and our child!”
“Stop giving false hope! We are not meant to be together. You have your own life, and so do I. I have a life of my own! Leonard and I weren't meant to be with you. So, stop getting here!”
“I'm sorry!” head down.
Janetha wiped her tears and turned her body. So he and Leon face each other. It is clearly shown in Leon's countenance if he truly regrets his actions.
“I will stop here ... “ said Leon.
Janetha spreads her manic. His heart again received a deep thorn. “Good if you understand the situation.”
“I'll let you go. But one thing you must remember, I will not break my relationship with my son, my own flesh and blood. I'll help you raise Leonard even if he's not with you. I'll keep an eye on my son from a distance. I will be in charge of this child completely!”
“What do you mean? Are you going to torture me slowly? I don't want to be in touch with you anymore. I won't let Leonard call you father! From now on we have no relationship!”
“Do not like that, Janetha! I'm entitled to my son!”
“Stop talking like that, as if you took part in my suffering while I was pregnant, giving birth and taking care of her until now!”
Leonard cried with a sniffle. He covered his ears with both hands. The boy did not want to hear his parents' debate. “Mommy …. Hik .. hik .. Da—daddy! Stop quarreling. I'm afraid,” shriek the boy in a soft voice.
“Leonard, Daddy's son .. I'm sorry I failed to be a good father to you. But let me make amends in a way, remain your Daddy! Please don't stop calling me Daddy!”
Leonard. He nodded slowly as he hugged Leon tightly. “I love Daddy and Mommy. Please don't separate. Huhuhuhuhu!”
Leonard nodded. Janetha who saw that could only cry as hard. This parting was hard for him. Moreover, Leon has blatantly shown that he prefers Chiren over him. But Janetha accepts it despite the weight. He is aware of his position. He is only part of Leon's past, while Chiren is the man's future.
“Go and don't forget Daddy. But if you want to hate Daddy, then do it. Daddy deserves to be hated.”
“I will keep remembering your words. I love Daddy and have forgiven Daddy,” Leonard said, throwing a small smile.
Leon hugged his son back. He was crying sobbing. A little boy like Leonard has understood the situation his parents are feeling. He didn't want to see his mother and father cry. So he also sacrificed his feelings to take on Leon, his father. Though the boy craved Leon's presence in their lives.
“Daddy loves you,” kiss Leonard's forehead.
Janetha held Leonard's hand and walked away from Leon.
“Get our son well,” said Leon.
The woman nodded slowly without looking back. Tears have flooded his cheeks. It feels crazy, but this is their love destiny. Leon could only stare behind the back of Janetha and her son who had entered the door. The shadow of both is gone.
“I have to catch up to Chiren! My wife, wait for me! I'll make up for all my mistakes. I'll do everything you want, as long as you don't get out of my life!”
Leon ran very fast.
“Leon wait! You chased Chiren in my car,” Gala said.
He receives Gala's car keys and rushes to leave Gala and Yara.
“My husband, I hope that Chiren is okay.”
“Iya. And hopefully this is the right decision Leon.” has made
“I feel sorry for Janetha and her son. Hopefully Janetha can find a man who can replace Om Leon in her heart.”
“You're right my wife,” hugs Yara.
“Their love story is very complicated. Everyone hurt.”
“And all because it was my parents!”
Yara fell silent and returned Gala's embrace.
***
A man who was none other than Leon drove the speed of his vehicle above average. His eyes drifted to and fro, looking for the car that Chiren was driving. He picked up a few vehicles in front of him. Leon made the street his racing area. He did not think about his life at all. All he had in his mind was the shadow of Chiren.
“That's the car!” ketus Leon when he saw the car Chiren parked on the edge of the bridge. Leon's mind started to rage. He thought, Chiren would kill himself. He immediately pulled the car behind Chiren's car.
As he approached, he realized that the license plate of the car was different. “Aishhh! Damnit!” he hit the wheel.
Leon again stepped on the accelerator very tightly. He kept glancing towards the street, looking for Chiren's car. From a distance Leon saw a light that was very blinding to his eyes. The light turned out to be coming from an eighteen-wheeled truck that looked shabby. Leon honks but the car speeds towards him. Suddenly …
THE DUARRRR!
BRUKKKK!
Is this the end of my life? Inner Leon. His face and body were bathed in blood. His breathing was puffing and only blowing one after another.
