After Meta finished his meal, Dara asked the waiter to wrap the food for Maria and also all the snacks to take to the meta house.
Dara also bought medicine, blankets and some other clothes for both.
After paying for everything Dara drove Meta to a rundown house made only of piles of cardboard and also a plywood board. Only a box-shaped room with an area of 3x3 meters. There was no bed, no door. If heavy rain flushed, surely they went to find another shade because of course the building would collapse.
Dara was concerned to see the situation Meta. Therefore he also felt grateful, at least he, his mother and Dimas lived much better. Although both have to work hard.
Looking at Mary who was lying weak, very thin and could not do anything. Dara recalls her mother who was also sickly for many years before finally dying. But his mother was not so thin and could not move like Mary today.
There was still a feeling of resentment when he saw Maria, but Dara tried to suppress him.
"Sorry my place is like this and also smells" said Meta smiling softly at Dara.
"It's okay" said Dara
Smelled Peing pesing pungent, it was certainly the smell of Maria who could not go to the bathroom because of her condition during the gospel. While Meta is pregnant and will not be strong enough to memapah Maria went to a public bath to just urinate.
Yes, public baths are about 50 meters away, there is a pump well that becomes a bathing place for residents in this settlement. But they have to queue, especially in the morning and evening. As for defecation, they all use ****** in the river area.
Dara felt pinched in his heart, he thought about the safety of Meta who had to bet his life if he wanted to urinate. It is too risky especially Meta is pregnant, because ****** it is only a footpath and prone to slipping if stepped on.
"Doctor Dara, can you check on my mother?" ask Meta carefully.
It can be seen from the eyes of Meta who loved his mother very much even though both were in dire conditions, but Meta faithfully accompanied Maria..
While on the trip, Dara asked why she did not abort her womb and why Dara wanted to take care of her mother.
With tears Meta replied that he only had a mother as the only family he had. He could not leave his mother in this condition. Mary is the woman who gave birth to her.
Then regarding Meta who does not want to abort his womb, It's because Meta does not want to kill his baby candidate. Because the jabang exists because he made a big mistake with the father of the baby. He would have added to the sin if he had also killed the baby.
He also said that he accepted whatever he was now living, because he thought it was in return for what he had done in the past. If only he could take care of himself and not drift in feelings for his ex-girlfriend just yet and commit a sin over and over again. It was impossible for God to rebuke him in this way and open his disgrace in front of everyone.
"Hmm no problem, I'll check" Dara said.
Dara then examined Maria who was already in a thin state, just like the undead. The only thing that distinguished her was her breath, for Mary was still breathing. Maria apparently had diabetes and also an infection in her stomach which was quite severe, so she had difficulty digesting her food.
"Your mother had a severe gastric infection, and had dry diabetes as well, because her sugar levels were quite high. Met Attention to your diet and your mother, take regular medication and stay away from sweet foods" said Dara
Hearing that Meta was down, he wanted to cry but he tried to hold it. She was too embarrassed to cry in front of people. Dara realized that and she gently stroked Meta's head.
"I have medicine, I'll give it to your mother. You don't have to worry about the price" said Dara
"really?" tanya Meta was surprised and enthusiastic.
"Hmm of course, I also have a house around here that I never lived in. If you want, you can stay there" said Dara offering a house on Meta.
It made the meta look up with sparkling eyes, yet suddenly the smile on his face faded.
"For home, I can't accept it, didn't we just know each other. Why is the doctor so good to me, to prepare a place to stay and I also do not want to trouble Dara doctor by giving us a ride" said Meta.
"I just look at you like I used to, I also used to have nothing and live in deprivation. So I just wanted to help because I remembered myself in the past. At least you can stay in a decent place so that your mother's condition improves and is also comfortable for pregnant women like you. Yes even though the house is small, but it is clean and comfortable" said Dara
After persuading Meta many times, Meta finally agreed to it as well. Dara then calls Flo to come bring a car and people to help bring Maria to the house she bought in the suburbs of S.
The house Dara bought in his own name, instead of not wanting to give Meta the house in the name of Meta himself. But Dara does this so Meta doesn't take it personally and wonders why she's so good at them, even giving her a home.
*illustration of the house that Dara bought to live in Meta and Maria.
They finally arrived at a house measuring 36 square meters. It is not far from the highway, only into the alley with a distance of 2 houses from the main cross-city road. The house has been seen among several trees making the atmosphere there cool.
The house is very beautiful because there are still many trees around it. It has two bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen and a bathroom. The house looks simple but very comfortable in the house.
Meta glazed over to see it, even though the house was very small compared to his home in the past, but he was grateful God brought him together with Dara. The figure of an angel and the savior of his family.
"Doctor thank you very much. If in the future I already have my own money to buy a house, I will move out of here soon. Or if this house later wants a doctor to occupy or use, the doctor just say it. Mom and I will be out right then and there" Meta said seriously.
"No need to worry, this house I never occupied because I live in the capital. Even if I come to S city I live with my family downtown. It would be a pity if this house was left empty and unkempt. So please take good care of my house Meta. Consider it your own home so you are comfortable occupying it" said Dara
"Sure doctor, I will keep the trust from you" said Meta confidently.
Then this is pregnant mother's milk for you, baby equipment for your prospective child. Since I don't know the gender, I bought a neutral color. Continue in the kitchen also there is a stock of rice and eggs and others, this is for your daily needs. You can also open small stalls in front of the house, it happens that here there are rarely stalls so it must be crowded if you open a stall here" said Dara
"Hiks, doctor. Why are you so nice to me. Though I was a doctor and just knew" said Meta powerless to hold back his tears that came down just like that.
"Ssttt, maybe I'm an intermediary sent by God to help you. I just want to see you live well, forget the past and look to a better future" Dara said
"Yes, I pray that God will reward Doctor Dara's kindness to me and Mama. I owe you very much Doc, I promise I will live well, I also hope the doctor continues to live happily" said Meta sincerely
"Iihh bumil why ceng gini, already ah pity that Dede baby will be sad too if his mother mewek gini" said Dara wiping tears Meta.
Flo who listened to Dara just smiled faintly, he did not expect that Dara would do something like this. Because Flo knew how much of Dara's heart ached for her father's family, including her stepmother and stepbrother.
But Dara actually opened her heart and tried to make all, although there is still pain and hate in her heart that would be difficult to eliminate.
"Today." said Meta staring at the beautiful face of Flo who was standing next to Dara.
"Gosh, I forgot, I know him, he's my personal assistant and my sister-in-law's candidate, his name is Flo" Dara said, introducing Flo.
"Hallo, I'm Meta" said Meta
"Flo.." Flo welcomed Meta's hand.
"Miss Flo is as beautiful as Doctor Dara. I am insecure hehe. Uh but the doctor said that Miss Flo is the Doctor's sister-in-law. Doctor Dara's future husband Miss Flo?" Ask Meta
"My future husband and future husband Flo are cousins. And it just so happens that my fiance is the cousin of Flo's future husband" Dara said
"Oohh, may you unite with each other yes. Not like me" said Meta stroking his stomach.
He remembered his ex-girlfriend who was so heartless, decided it just like that when he knew his family was bankrupt.
"Don't remember anymore, the important thing is now your life with your baby" said Dara.
"The doctor was right, the most important thing now is my mom and baby" Meta smiled. She decided to be a single mom. So he will live it with sincerity and also spirit.
After chatting for a long time, Dara and Flo finally came home. Previously Dara had placed an envelope containing money for Meta and his mother secretly in Meta's room.
There is not much Dara loves, only five million. Although not much for Dara, it is very much for Meta who has not held a lot of money for a long time.
It will be used for Meta capital to make small stalls.
....
Dara returns to Adi Raharjo's mansion with Flo. The two then chatted in the living room, while the other occupants were already asleep in a dream, because it was already 10 p.m.
"Ra, why did you decide to help them, have you forgiven them?" Flo asked Dara
"Everybody has a second chance, Flo. I just don't want to regret a lifetime of ignoring them, even though I know they're in trouble. If I keep my eyes closed and they suffer, then how is it different from them? However, they have received their karma even if only briefly" said Dara
"Then why do you just help him get there" said Flo, because after this Dara decided not to get involved again with the mother and child.
"I want to help her live a better life. But I'm not going to give back what they had just, let's just say it was their karma. What problem I give, it's up to how they use the kindness I'm giving right now.
At least I have no regrets and also sincerely reached out to help them out of trouble. This is the last chance for them that I give, so in the future it will be like what they themselves determine their way of life.
Somehow I felt sure that Meta was a good person, even though his attitude used to be very identical to that of the girl from a rich family who was arrogant, arrogant, naughty and also wasteful. But since his life fell, he tried to improve. I hope he will always be like that and change for the better" said Dara
"Then the woman?" ask Flo
"His harmony in old and new life, that's his business. I was just helping as a doctor in general, I had no desire to use the ancient medicine I had to cure him. I have done my best to treat it in a modern way, whether it is healed and as before or vice versa. It was a fate he had to face. Because after all, a person's life returns to the person's own desires. Whether the spirit for his life is still high or decided to give up" said Dara
"If the old man? Have you forgiven him?" ask Flo
"No! At least for now I can't forgive him, whether in the future I change my mind I don't know. I still can't accept his behavior before me, Mom and Dimas. Moreover, I still see if he has temperament and arrogant nature is also greedy. Even when he was in the worst condition as he is now. It is very dear that in my body flows blood that is a bastard" said Dara. Pout
"You're right, I agree. Want to know the Beta team said that the old man was still acting like he was grasping the world. In order to eat and sleep, he had to work hard on the streets. But its basic nature is still donating" said Flo also sneered.
Dara never took off her monitoring from people who used to be in contact with her. No exception to his own father, who until now still hung on the road as a vagrant.
However, Dara several times asked his men to feed him when the man was starving. But instead of thanking him, but the man actually ate his men's money. Really not knowing and thanking.
