"Baby," call Jevian who just got home.

Roseline who was accompanying Jefrey made a collage turned her head, "you're home?"

"You think?"

"But it's only 3 o'clock, so fast?"

"Daddy, look!" Jeffrey showed off his fish-shaped collage.

"Waw, how pretty?" praise Jevian. He turned to Roseline. "I was meeting outside. Coming home, I suddenly missed you so I just went home."

"Want to drink something?" bargain Roseline.

Jevian shook his head, "I bought strawberries, please wash them. I put it on the kitchen table. I want to eat it" Jevian said, frowning Roseline's forehead. For as long as he knew Jevian, he had never seen the man eat a fruit that contained such a sour taste.

Roseline did what Jevian asked. Soon after, Roseline was re-joined by Jevian who was playing rubik with Jeffrey.

"This ... " Roseline handed me a bowl containing fresh strawberries. So tantalizing. Jevian quickly took one and devoured it with pleasure.

"Wow, strawberries! Jefrey wants to" exclaimed Jefrey, who took one fruit and bit it.

"Jpk ... Sour," cried Jefrey with a grimacing face after spitting strawberries in her mouth back.

Roseline surprised. He immediately gave Jeffrey a glass of water. Jefrey Oun immediately took the water and downed it half.

"Daddy, the strawberries aren't tasty. Acid."

"Had daddy sweet. Wanna try?" Jefrey who thought maybe he was wrong to choose and get the acid opened his mouth and then bit the strawberry owned by Jevian. But again he spewed the strawberry.

"It's also acid. Jefrey doesn't like it" he said, blasting his lips.

"Truly sour?" ask the curious Roseline.

"Yes, mommy. Daddy's mouth is weird. Sour strawberries are sweet, "Jefrey's murmur.

"But it's really sweet. Maybe Jefrey's mouth is in trouble." Jevian menuke's.

"That's sour, Daddy. Odd daddy's mouth."

"It's sweet, Jef. Jefrey's mouth is weird."

"Asam."

"Sweet, Jef."

"Asam, Daddy."

"Sweet, Jefrey."

"That's really sour, Daddy," Jefrey exclaimed.

Roseline let out a rough sigh, then she picked up a strawberry that looked the most seductive with a bright red and large size. Roseline swallowed. But just one bite, Roseline already threw the fruit.

"Jrp ... It's sour, "squeak Roseline as she rubs her lips. Then he immediately took a glass of water to drink the rest of Jefrey and finished it.

"Baby, why was it dumped? Dear," said Jevian who immediately picked up the strawberry that Roseline threw earlier. He then washed it with drinking water and began to bite it making the eyes of Jefrey and Roseline round.

"Sweet," said Jevian, making Roseline and Jefrey shudder themselves.

"It's sour, Dad."

"Sweet, Mom."

"Ck, you two're weird mouths. Strawberry as sweet and smart as this is said to be sour. Yes, the strawberry makes all the daddy. Hmmm ... Delicious," said Jevian while devouring one by one strawberry fruit so not a single remnant. Roseline to gape herself saw Jevian who devoured the super-acid strawberry until it was gone unnoticed.

"Morra, how long are you gonna take care of that crazy guy? It's been a month, even until now there's no development on him," said Morra's father, who was upset that his daughter still kept Bastian by his side. Though his father has asked Morra to divorce Bastian, Morra still insists on maintaining his relationship with Bastian no matter his current circumstances.

"Bastian's not crazy, Dad. He's just depressed. Depressed," Morra said she did not accept her husband being called crazy even by her own father.

"It's up to him to go crazy, depressed, or whatever. To be sure, his brain was out of his mind. You want to talk all the time, she won't respond because it's not you she wants, it's another woman. So why are you staying by his side? It's a waste of time, effort, and expense" Morra's father is upset that Morra insists on keeping Bastian.

"For what? I did it all because I love him. Stop meddling in my business, Dad. Isn't that what you should blame daddy? You guys forced us to get married, but daddy knew at that time we already had a partner. So don't blame Bastian if he's like this. She loves her lover so much, but it is your obsession that does not think about our feelings, your children that have destroyed us. And when Bastian's like this, you guys just so easily want to throw him away? Remember Dad, he's not only my husband, but also the father of my children. Until I never leave Bastian. It is up to him to love another woman. I'm sure, as time passes, I can definitely melt her heart. Bastian will be cured. If Daddy has no other interests, better Daddy go because until anytime I will stick with my stance," Morra said firmly. It is up to his father not to accept his decision or get angry because since he married Bastian, then Bastian is more entitled to him.

"You ... " Morra's father hardened his jaw with his index finger pointing at Morra. " ... really stubborn. It's up to you. Just take care of your crazy husband, daddy won't care anymore" joked Morra's father.

After saying that, he immediately left the room where Bastian was treated. Since being declared mentally ill, Bastian has been intensively treated in a mental hospital. Not all patients in mental hospitals are crazy. Many of them are also patients who experience mental disorders such as depression, dissociative disorders, PTSD, and so forth. They need extra handling to prevent the occurrence of more severe things. Same with Bastian. Morra hopes that with intensive care, Bastian's mental health will recover soon.

After her father left, Morra crouched down in front of Bastian in a wheelchair and looked out the window. Morra put his head in. Bastian's lap. No matter Bastian doesn't respond, it's important that Bastian doesn't kick him out. That's been better.

Morra was crying in Bastian's lap. At first Morra was forced to marry Bastian, but Bastian always treated him well so that the seeds of love grew over time.

Suddenly Morra felt a warm palm rubbing the top of his head. Morra looked up. He stared at Bastian who was also looking at him with reddened eyes.

"Why didn't you obey your father's orders? What did your father say was true? Why wish on a crazy guy like me? I never even loved you. Go, Morra. Pursue happiness. You deserve to be happy, even if not with me. I don't deserve you, Morra. I'm just a stupid man shackled to the love of his past. I ... don't deserve you. You're too perfect for me a stupid, crazy guy like me" Bastian said, suddenly making Morra's heart beat.

"Bas, you ... "

"Go, Morra. I don't deserve you."

"You're healthy? You ... Bastian, are you back? Bastians ... Husband ... " Rather than responding to Bastian's words, Morra is too dissolved in euphoria because Bastian is already aware of his depression. He could even speak as usual.

"Baustin ... " Morra hugged Bastian tightly. Her tears. Bastian slowly raised his hand and returned Morra's embrace.

"Why, Morra? Why do you keep holding on? Didn't I hurt you? Why are you still willing to wait and take care of me? I ... "

"Please, don't tell me you want me to leave you. Please don't say that. To the death I will never leave you. I love you, Bas. Ilove you. Loves you so much. Please, don't ask me to leave! If you ask me to leave again, then I will not hesitate to leave this world forever" Morra said with a face that had been soaked by tears.

Morra stretched his arms. Bastian's eyes were also wet. Bastian's hand slowly stretched out and rubbed the clear grains that continued to fall from the net as silent as Morra's lake.

"Morra, but I don't deserve your sincere love."

Morra shook his head quickly, "who said you didn't deserve it? You deserve it too much. You're the kind and loyal man I've ever known. I don't hate you for still loving your ex. I am amazed because you are too loyal to keep love when there is me who is always by your side. But this time, please think of me. The woman you love is now happy with her partner. If you love her, let her go. Insulate him. Now it's your turn to pick up happy. There's me, our children who love you sincerely. You want to open a new page with only me the woman in your heart?" Morra grabbed Bastian's hand and clasped it tightly.

With tears in his eyes, Bastian nodded.

"Teach me I love you. Help me forget it."

Hearing that, Morra's smile flashed so beautifully. A beautiful flower blooming in Keukenhof Park.

True Morra said, if he really loves Roseline, then he must sincerely release her. Moreover, he could see how much the man loved Roseline. Bastian admits he doesn't deserve Roseline anymore. He hurt Roseline so much. It was only natural that Roseline forgot all about her love for him. Now it is time to open his heart to the woman who has been loving him for years. She has children with Morra. How evil would he be to throw away his wife and children for a woman who no longer loves him.

Bastian smiled. He was truly grateful to have a wife who would still accept him under any circumstances. He was even willing to defy his own parents in order to defend him. Bastian is determined to forget Roseline and start loving her.

Seeing Bastian smile, Morra slowly brought her face closer. Bastian knew what Morra wanted to do and closed his eyes. Their lips are also joined to each other. Warm feelings spread along with mutual acceptance of each other.
