A new chapter begins in Lalita's life. The status he currently holds is not something that is proud, although certainly not something that is despicable. There is nothing wrong with a widow. However, people in this country have already created a negative stigma against the figure of widows, especially divorce widows. A bad impression will stick wherever a widow is. No matter how hard she tries to live a good and honorable life, women who are widowed will still be considered as women who are less dignified.
Therefore, Hendro continued to warn Lalita not to travel out too often if there is really no important business. Arfan's friend also continued to advise Lalita to immediately go home to her father.
Lalita was pensive in her room after hearing Hendro's advice over the phone. He did feel that what Hendro said was a lot of truth. He does need a place to shelter with the new status he bears, especially in a two-bodied state like today. However, there is a fear in Lalita that of course he can not tell Hendro.
If she returns to Arfan's house, Lalita fears that her life is being controlled again by her father as he has been. He no longer wants to be treated like a doll that has no feelings. Lalita's worries also increase every time she remembers the prospective child in her womb. He did not want his son to be the victim of the wrong affection that Arfan had. Ah, there are times when Lalita feels that her current attitude towards the papa is a bit excessive. But his worries at this moment were really real. His intention to divorce from Erick not only wants to be separated from an unhealthy marriage that torments his psyche, but he also wants to be separated from the shackles of the papa.
Lalita has a desire to re-arrange her pending dream. He wanted to explore the science of fashion design as he had once aspired before deciding to accept Erick's proposal. It all sounds impossible if he doesn't rely on his papa. Not to mention, the next few months his son will be born. It will definitely be difficult for Lalita to raise the child alone, especially while struggling to realize her ideals. However, if he returns to life in the shade of Arfan, Lalita is also not sure that he can live life according to his wishes.
It's a dilemma and Lalita doesn't know which way to go.
In the middle of her daydream, Lalita was suddenly startled by the tone of her cell phone call. This time, his father's home phone number called. For a moment Lalita frowned while staring at the screen of her phone. If it's a call from Arfan, there's no way the papa can reach him using the home phone number. It was most likely a call from Bi Ami, but why did the waiter at her father's house reach her?
Not wanting to continue to be curious, Lalita also finally shifted the receive button on her phone screen.
“Halo, Non Lita?” Someone's voice was heard across the street. True guess Lalita, Bi Ami who contacted him.
“Iya, Bi. What's up?” Lalita responds.
“Anu, Non, Mr. Arfan ..”
“Papa? Papa why, Bi?” asked Lalita while again linking her eyebrows.
“Mr Arfan is in the hospital, Non,” Bi Ami said in a slightly vibrating voice. There was clearly a worried tone tucked in his speech just now.
“What? Papa in the hospital?” lalita's birthday. A sudden uneasy feeling instantly ambushed every corner of his heart.
“Night Sir complained his head was dizzy, but did not want to be checked by a doctor. You're just taking headache medicine. Then you had said his view was dark, before finally fainting.” Bi Ami explained rather emotionally. It seems like Arfam's situation is quite alarming.
“Papa taken to which hospital, Bi? Please send me the address. I will follow directly there,” said Lalita.
“Good, Non. I will send you the hospital address,” Bi Ami said before ending her phone call. Shortly thereafter, a short message containing the address of the hospital where Arfan was treated entered Lalita's cell phone. Either Bi Ami asked for help who, considering that the middle-aged waitress could not send messages using a mobile phone.
Lalita immediately ordered a taxi online, then rushed to change her clothes. After that, he went straight out of his boarding room and waited for an online taxi he booked in front of the boarding building. Shortly after, the taxi came and immediately took Lalita to the hospital where the father was treated.
During the trip, Lalita looks anxious. Bad thoughts kept flashing in his head, but as much as possible he tried to tepis. In his heart he kept praying that his father would be fine. Can not feel if something should happen to the father when their relationship is not good as it is now. A moment of regret came to Lalita's heart. He felt guilty for believing that Arfan's current condition had little to do with their dispute the other day.
Not felt, the online taxi that brought Lalita also reached the hospital courtyard where Arfan was treated. Soon he paid his fare and got off the vehicle. From the follow-up messages sent by Bi Ami, Lalita could easily find the room where her papa was being treated at this time. A man who was Arfan's personal assistant was standing at the door of the room.
“Pak Erlan.” Lalita greeted the man in his early forties. Arfan's confidant, besides Erick.
“Non Lita.” The man named Erlan replied respectfully. Although her age was far above Lalita, of course she did not forget that the young woman before her was currently the beloved daughter of her master.
“ Papa ... how is it?” lalita asked with a breath that was still a little breathless as she stepped as fast as possible along the hospital corridor earlier.
“Mr Arfan has been treated well and is now resting inside. Earlier his condition was critical, but now it is okay,” said Erlan.
“Se-four critical?” repeat Lalita somewhat flattened.
“That's.”
Lalita was stunned as she held her breath for a moment, before then she exhaled slightly violently. The guilt now enveloped his heart. It must be because of her stubbornness, her papa became like this.
“What now can papa be swiped? I want to see papa inside,” said Lalita then in a soft tone.
“Actually it is okay, Non. But ...” Erlan's sentence was held back for a moment.
“But what, Sir?” ask Lalita.
“Mistress is helping to cleanse Mr.”'s body
Lalita was stunned for a moment. “Mrs ... means mama?”
Erlan nodded.
Lightly Lalita immediately widened her eyes, then sprang open the door of the room where Arfan was treated, before Erlan could prevent. However, Lalita did not enter when she saw the scene in the room at this time. His father was lying on a hospital gurney with his eyes closed, while his mother, who stood behind him, was wiping some parts of his body using a washcloth so painstakingly and carefully.
Lalita looked around, not knowing whether to go forward to her mom and dad or retreat back so that the two of them could be together longer in the room.
