Twelve o'clock at night Deva came out of Gege's room. His heart is broken, his mind is confused. Gege really made Deva's brain seem unable to work properly. Confused by the behavior of the Young Master who hired her as a contract wife.
Deva sleeps in Ericko's room with the new nun Gege leases from the babysitter-dealer foundation.
Bi Fani is still on holiday, while today Devana is obliged to attend the Gege grandfather's company guesthouse to witness the inauguration of her contract husband.
Tomorrow Gege starts work and will be home from work in the afternoon. Automatically all the time will be more in the office than at home.
Both cousins also had the same job. Must work every day, no longer as free as the days before.
"Darling! Don't make breakfast for Gege?" Widia gawked into Gege's room, seeing that Gege's door was slightly open.
Widia and Gege looked at each other.
"You alone? Where's Deva?"
"Ericko cried at dawn in Deva's arms, Grandma!" gege said, of course, a lie. He did not want the Grandmother to be suspicious about the situation of those who sleep separately.
"Oh so, huh? Yeah, Grandma went to Ericko's room first?"
Gege helped the grandmother by pushing her wheelchair towards Ericko's room.
"No need to deliver, Ge! Let grandma walk alone!"
"It's okay, Grandma! Gege is done, you want to see the face of your beloved son. Whether you're awake or not."
"Oh that..! Hehe..."
Grandma was anxious to see Ericko who had just woken up.
"Hi, Honey! Oalaa, handsome boy! Just wake up handsome!" praise the Grandma made Deva turn to Grandma with a happy face. He immediately stood up and helped Gege replace him pushing Widia's wheelchair.
"Why is that in the corner of Ericko's left eye?" ask Gege to Sister Titi.
"Yesterday Aden fell, sir! With the end of the study table, so it scratches and bleeds a little." Sister Titi's answer did not satisfy Gege.
He approached Ericko, peeping one eye of a cute boy with plaster wound cover.
"Muacht, Papa's champion is the smartest boy in the world!"
Deva turned her face. There is a sense of annoyance in the heart. Gege is acting again.
"Please don't let your guard down on my son, sus!"
"Good, Master! Sorry, I was less alert yesterday!"
"Other times faster!"
"Yes, Sir!"
Gege looked back at Ericko. He smiled, looking at the smile of Devana's adorable son.
Her memory was bright, recalling her frightening childhood. Gege tries to remember the name of the baby's sister who used to hate half-dead babies. But just make Gege headaches, until involuntarily yelling holding his head like it was about to break.
"Aarrrgh! Ahh!!!"
At first, Devana thought Gege was just acting. Apparently, Gege was screaming louder. Makes everyone there anxious and worried. Even Ericko cried hysterically, seeing Gege who looked so in pain.
Fortunately, Indra and Nani have not yet left for the office. Today they plan to move to a branch office located on the edge of the city.
"Gee! Gege!"
"Nani, call doctor Rusli! Let me know that we're coming to the clinic in half an hour!"
Mama Gege immediately picked up the phone and made a voice call.
Deva was confused and nervous. He could only stare sadly at Georgino Gunawan who was still hysterically screaming in pain.
"Deva, you better not come! Let Gege, we'll take care of it!"
Devana just nodded with a confused face. Both of her parents-in-law did not want her to take care of her husband.
Like opening an old wound.
In the past, Chandra received special treatment from both parents. And again like de javu, now Gege is also like Chandra. And Deva feels like there's something Papa and Mama Gege are hiding. Just as Papa and Mama Chandra used to cover up Chandra's disease.
Oh my god!... What are you planning for me? Although Gege was only a fake husband because it was only a contract marriage, but the pain of being lived is almost the same as when Chandra died!
Deva rushed out of his pavilion. Pursuing a vehicle driven by Indra takes Gege to the hospital.
"Father, Papaaa!..."
"Deva, what's wrong?"
"Allow Deva with Brother Gege! Don't leave Deva alone in this uncertainty!"
"Deva, we'll take Gege to the hospital clinic. We'll be in touch soon!"
"Deva come, Ma! Hik hiks.. Deva wants to come!" pinta Deva pleaded with tears streaming down her cheeks.
"Yes, let's go up, Deva!"
Deva happy. Her mother-in-law finally collapsed and invited her along.
He sat down next to Gege. With one hand gently massaged the man's head and another hand held Gege's wet fingers.
Georgino no longer screams in pain. Now he is silent with both eyes closed. His face was pale, both of his palms were wet.
Devanna rubbed Gege's sweat on her forehead which was as big as a corn seed.
He began to sob, the shadow of the moment Chandra was about to die as if dancing on his eyelids.
"Yes, Yang...! Hik hicks...! Steady, Yang! For me, Ericko too! Hik hicks! Don't leave us, Yang! If you leave.., what about me and Coco's fate, Yang!"
Devana's tears were falling, unstoppable. Now Nani was swept away with the words of Deva who was heartbreaking.
"Gege will be fine, Deva! Don't worry, Honey! Pray that Gege will soon be healthy and normal again as ever!" nani returns Deva's consciousness.
He's trying hard. Removing his tears many times, but his melt seemed unwilling to stop.
"Dev!" Gege's voice called him soft.
"Yes, Brother!?"
"I..., just a headache, Dev! Don't worry about me!"
"Hik hik hicks.huaa..." Deva could not bear her sadness. He hugged Gege's body tightly. Slowly wiping the look on the face of the man who still closed his eyes while grimacing endured the unbearable pain in the head.
"Promise, don't stay with me and Coco! Hik..."
"Yes, Deva! As long as I'm alive, you two are my responsibility!"
Gege uttered a sentence that made Deva ambyar. The crying broke. This time even Gege also cried reminiscing about the sadness of his childhood.
Shown all the cries of the biological father, the loud cry of the baby sister, then also changed the screams of his stepfather. All alternating as if pressing the body soul of Satria aka Gege to limp all the joints.
Flood of tears, sobs of sadness that actually both Gege and Deva are regretting their own bad luck. Bad luck that they desperately want to replace with good luck that is abundant in affection.
The two were getting closer and closer to hugging while crying at the same time. Up to a quarter of an hour, then both of them wake up and slowly silence by removing the remaining tears on the cheeks.
Gege himself felt the pain in his head slowly disappear. This was the first time his mysterious illness had healed on its own.
Usually he must be opened a day to two days with a sedative injection and the help of a liquid infusion of vitamins at least a full bottle.
Now, he just feels stiff at the nape. And usually gradually disappear after he soaks warm water in the bathtub.
Gege and Deva looked at each other with embarrassed looks. Both of their eyes were puffy, as they had finished crying. Fingers were still interlocked until the sound of Indra's speech that made Deva confused.
"Are you really in love?"
Gege and Deva were both silent. No one dared to answer but to slowly let go of each other's handrails.
What does Papa Indra mean? Why ask such a strange question?
Devana could only ask inwardly.
