Steven rushed towards the 3rd floor where papa Raymond's room was. The DNA test is in his hands. If you obey Shera's confession, then the results of DNA tests that are still sealed neatly will definitely write the word MATCH.
Steven was struggling because he didn't find Edi on his desk. Steven glanced at his watch, it wasn't time for lunch. Not yet had time to find an answer where Edi, Steven saw the room papa Raymond rather open and there was a conversation from inside. Initially Steven thought that it must be Edi who was in the room papa Raymond, but getting closer, what was heard was a woman's voice and seemed quite familiar in Steven's ears.
Steven frowned when he saw Auntie Amelia sitting at papa Raymond's desk. He walked in, just standing at the door listening to a serious conversation.
“So soon Kirana will officially take on the role of Sebastian's wife. Please tell Rosa not to bother our daughter-in-law anymore,”, Auntie Amelia said firmly.
“Don't equate Kirana with herself thirty years ago. Kirana doesn't act as Sebastian's teaser let alone tease your son. Even since a long time your son has continued to force his love on Kirana. Same with Rosa, likes to impose love on others,”, said Auntie Amelia while screeching cynically.
“I make sure that Rosa will not disturb your daughter-in-law again,” papa Raymond said with a smile.
“Dan please take good care of your future daughter-in-law's behavior as well !”
“My daughter ? Shera you mean ? How can be recognized as a son-in-law because the results of DNA tests have just come out today,” said papa Raymond while frowning.
Auntie Amelia looked at papa Raymond with a cynical smile.
“Shera has admitted that she has made Steven fuck her until she gets pregnant. Isn't it exactly the same as your wife's behavior ? It's just that now the victim is your own child. Like de javu and this time Rosa will feel even more devastated because her biological child is made like you. I feel sorry for Steven. Not just a victim of Shera's ambition but also the arrogant attitude of his own mother. If Rosa didn't hate Kirana too much, things might have been different. But who cares ? I'm so grateful that Kirana finally made a match with Sebastian.”
“Did you hear yourself Shera recognition ?” Father Raymond asked as he moved the pen in his hand.
“No,” auntie Amelia shakes her head. “But Sebastian and Kirana heard it live when they met the four of them. And two days ago, Shera again trapped Steven but with Kirana as the target of his victim. But again God always protects good people like Kirana. I managed to figure it out and prevent all of that from happening.”
Papa Raymond rubbed his face violently. The burden of sadness was seen in his eyes.
“It is not impossible that you will soon get another grandchild,” auntie Amelia laughed as she moved out of her chair. Papa Raymond only replied bitterly.
“I hope Rosa will come to terms with Steven's disappointment with the reality of her life. And do not forget, arrange your wife not to interfere in other people's affairs anymore. I've given up her behavior on me. I'm thankful that I married Richard in the end. She's not only a good sister to you, but a wonderful husband. His love will never make my mouth stop being grateful. And maybe it's time I thank you guys for betraying me. Because of your actions, I was instead given the place of an extraordinary man. I said goodbye to Ray. Don't forget to remind Rosa to stop making Steven a victim of his nature.”
Auntie Amelia smiled as she nodded her head at a glance and walked out of papa Raymond's room. Arriving at the door, he passed Steven who was standing glued while holding an envelope.
“How are you Steven ?” greet Auntie Amelia with a friendly smile.
“Ngg…. Well Auntie,” says Steven staggered. “What...”
“Talk directly to your papa. It is not the right of auntie to tell you,” said Amelia who saw the face full of Steven question marks.
“Auntie excuse me because you still have to take care of Sebastian and Kirana. Hopefully everything can be resolved well,” auntie Amelia patted Steven's shoulder before it passed.
Steven was still fixated until he finally let out a long sigh and decided to talk directly to papa Raymond.
“Pa,” greeting Steven staring at his papa who looks dreamy. “DNA test result is out, but I haven't opened it.”
“Why ? You're afraid that the result turns out to be true Raven is your son?” ask Raymond with a forced smile.
Her heart felt pinched upon hearing Auntie Amelia's words just a moment ago. Steven was sitting in the front seat of his desk.
“What does Auntie Amelia mean, pa ?”
“You heard it?” asked Raymond with a bitter smile.
“What papa and auntie Amelia..” Steven could not continue his words, only looking at the face of papa Raymond who looked full of burden
“Maybe it's time you listened to a story you really wanted to keep as a painful past record. But as your aunt said earlier, seeing what Shera did to you, papa is like going back in time, to your own life.”
Papa Raymond took a heavy breath and took a glass and gulped it down before starting his story on Steven.
“Do the test results show that you are Raven's biological father?”
Steven shook his head, then tore the envelope containing the results of the DNA test. He sighed before opening the folded sheet. And it is true according to Shera's admission, if the final results of the DNA test stated 99.9% MATCH.
Papa Raymond did not need to confirm what was written in the test report, because the look on Steven's face had answered everything.
“Papa was also in your position, Steve, only difference papa can not do a DNA test because the fetus in the womb of your mother died before birth. At that time, there was no technology that could do DNA tests on the fetus that is still in the womb,” papa Raymond again sighed long.
“Am I also not a papa child?” asked Steven with a worried face. Papa Raymond smiled as he shook his head.
“Auntie Amelia was a papa lover who worked as a nurse at this hospital at first. As you know how the oma is very strict in regulating people who deserve or do not get along with us, moreover the matter of matchmaking. Our relationship was both unresolved. Then came your mama as the son of an opa acquaintance businessman who openly asked to be betrothed to papa. But no matter how much you try to attract your attention, your heart already loves Auntie Amelia. Until finally your mother did something desperate in her life. He came to the house when opa and oma were not there and papa was on holiday that day. Without you knowing, your mother put the drug into your food or drink that afternoon, until finally there was an improper relationship. But on purpose, your mom secretly arranged with the hospital staff and had Auntie Amelia come to the house that afternoon. Not only auntie Amelia, mama also arranged for oma and opa to go home and witness the incident.” Papa Raymond paused for a moment while gulping down his drinking water again.
“The door of the room was accidentally unlocked and mama accidentally let out some eye-catching noises. Auntie Amelia came first from opa and oma. At my mother's order, the maid took her straight up to my room. Perhaps due to hearing those unnatural voices, Auntie immediately opened the room and witnessed the incident that afternoon. Not long ago oma and opa who had just returned home immediately went upstairs when they heard the shout of auntie. Finally papa was forced to marry mama by opa and oma because it was considered to have desecrated your mama by force.”
“Then why do papa feel the need to do a DNA test on the fetus in the womb mama ?” steven asked while linking his two eyebrows.
“Not long ago we got married, mom was declared pregnant. At that time, Papa was still running the internship. But what makes papa surprised is the report of the results of your pregnancy examination. It turns out that his gestational age exceeds the calculation of our relationship. Papa who at that time could not control his emotions, asked directly to mama in front of our parents. Mom panicked and gave me a complicated answer. Whether what makes opa and omamu more confident with the words of his son-in-law, even obgyn doctors in dealing with mama dismissed from the hospital and immediately moved to work outside Jakarta. Since then, he has built a wall with his mother. Especially when faced with the fact that finally Auntie Amelia married Uncle Richard. Papa's getting worse. Uncle Richard bravely opposed the rejection of opa and oma and opted out of the Pratama Hotel company that was inherited for him. Uncle Richard founded MegaCyber on his own, not because of the opa legacy you've heard so far. Papa was amazed at the courage of papa's sister. Although it hurts to watch your auntie and uncle wedding, but papa is also grateful that finally Auntie got a husband as good as Uncle Richard.”
“Then what about the child in the womb mama, Pa ? Means he's my brother?”
“Because of panic saw the attitude of papa who increasingly indifferent to mama and intend to do DNA tests when the child was born, finally mama desperate to do a lot of ways to avoid it happening. At the age of the fifth womb, the fetus must be removed because it died in the womb. Oma did not allow papa to do DNA tests on the fetus which was eventually removed by force. Papa and mama's relationship is increasingly tenuous, even we had to live apart. Papa's heart was completely broken because he felt he had been lied to by your mother. Papa finally chose to leave the opa-owned hospital and look for work outside this hospital after completing the internship period. Then accidentally, papa reunited with Auntie Amelia who was waiting for Uncle Richard to check their content. It's sad to have to accept such a reality, but I feel like Auntie Amelia's feelings are even more broken when I see you're fucking your mama.”
“Then I myself was right papa's biological child ? Or someone else's child ?” steven's face was worried.
“Of course you are papa's biological child,” said papa Raymond with a happy smile. “Papa takes time to accept all the mama's deeds in papa's life. And on the advice of Auntie Amelia and the support of Uncle Richard, finally papa tried to freely accept the reality of his own life. Then finally mama got pregnant from her own papa seed and you were born Steven.”
“Thank you for being a good father to me even though mom has hurt papa so much,” Steven said with a smile.
“I'm sorry, Pa. Sorry for having to repeat the events you experienced in the past. Sorry because I will never be as fresh and as good as papa who wants to take back mama with chested air. I will legally certify Raven as my biological child, but I have sworn I will not recognize Shera as my wife even if I have to marry her in order to maintain the good name of the family.”
Steven's gaze full of disappointment and sadness made Papa Raymond can only take a deep breath and give a moment for his son to accept the reality that is not in accordance with his dreams.
Papa Raymond is very, very understanding of his son's current feelings and he will support whatever decision Steven takes. Papa Raymond did not want his son to have the feeling of regret that often still likes to stop in his heart. Regret and hope that time can be repeated.
“Do what you think is good, Steven. Papa will always support you,” said Papa Raymond with a wise smile.
“Thank you, Pa,” Steven smiled and felt a bit relieved because papa Raymond did not act as hard as Steven expected.
