THE STAIN OF THE PAST
Chapter 35. Stefani's Choice

"You can choose. Raised that baby and disappeared from our lives forever. I'll send you out of the country where no one recognizes you. Or you can stay with us on the condition that you remove your contents!" said Papa.

Both options were difficult for Stefani. Her tears rolled back down her cheeks. Didn't expect Papa would make such a difficult choice.

If she chooses the former, will Fani be able to live on her own and base her baby. He was used to being served all this time. Making a glass of warm tea alone he never did and could not.

"Pack your clothes now. Papa will send you abroad. If your child has been born, you can leave it to the orphanage. After that you can go back to this family," said Papa with great emphasis.

"Papa asks me to throw away my son after birth? Does Papa have no feelings? However, the child in my womb right now is Papa's grandson! How could Papa ask me to throw him into an orphanage" Fani said.

Fani was not out of thought, what was in her Papa's mind so asked her to throw away the baby after being born. There's no pity for Papa for his grandson.

"However, if you still want to live alone with your child, never go back and forget Indonesia forever. Stay and settle in the country Papa said you were!"

Stefani stood up to his Papa who was standing. He looked at Papa with sharp eyes. No more fear and respect for his parents. Mama who can read something bad will come close to both.

"So Papa's embarrassed if everyone knows I'm pregnant out of wedlock. So that the heart to throw me and the future grandchildren of Papa who is in my womb!"

"It's all because you're your fault that you can't keep yourself. Why are you blaming and befalling all on your parents!"

"Why is Papa ashamed and unwilling to admit that the child in my womb is my grandson? Papa's blood also flowed in his body!"

"I will never acknowledge that child in your womb as my grandson. Get ready! I'll call my man who'll drive you and find you a house out there!"

After saying that Papa came out of the room followed Adit. He doesn't know what to say. Helping her sister is impossible. Adit knows very well the nature of his Papa. If his wishes are opposed, the man will be angry and threatening. Maybe Papa threatened not to give him money.

Currently in the room only lived Fani and her mama. Fani knelt down in front of Mama. Begging his parents.

"Ma, I beg you. Don't send me abroad. I fear. Alone there pregnant. I beg you, Ma. Persuade Papa. Leave me at the villa or send me to the village. Do not go abroad alone. It's the same Papa wants to kill me slowly" said Fani.

"Yes, Honey. Mama will try to persuade your Papa. Now you rest first. Mama wants to see Papa," said Mama.

Mom also stepped out of Fani's room. Fani was alone in the room. Fani sat on the edge of the bed. Imagining life alone in a foreign place and with a stranger made Fani afraid.

"Rather than me living alone and dying of fear I better end my life. Papa's goal is also to kill me slowly because of the shame of having a child like me" Fani told herself.

Fani pulls the nightstand drawer by her bedside. Since two months Fani took sleeping pills, because of stress. Fani took it and took the water. Twenty grains directly in the drink Fani.

"Goodbye everyone" Fani said before swallowing all the sleeping pills.
