Trapped Between Passion Husband And Stepdaughter
#53. Pangestu continues to accompany Arkan in the hospital
As soon as Pangestu recovered. Pangestu immediately went to meet Arkan who was still unconscious.
"Hi master father, get well quickly" said Pangestu holding Arkan's hand tightly close to his chest occasionally kissing him.
"Hurry to heal baby, we'll be playing basketball soon. And I promise never to leave you again", Pangestu shed tears in Arkan's hands.
Not long after that Arkan's hand moved. And then Arkan opened his eyes wide. Seeing Pangestu at his bedside, Arkan immediately smiled happily, "Om pangestu", he said
"Om, why did you never come home?, but Arkan always hoped that you would come to see Arkan soon" said Arkan slowly.
"I'm sorry om never comes yes, om busy once in the office. But this time, I promise to come to see you often" Pangestu assured Arkan.
"It's true om, it's not a lie" Arkan hesitated.
"Yes, om promise will not lie and keep the promise om", Pangestu brandished two fingers, namely the index finger and middle finger.
"That's how you feel now, do you have any pain in any part of your body?", asked Pangestu curiously of Arkan's feelings.
"No om, Arkan is feeling better" said Arkan was getting excited.
"Arkan, from now on call Om, father yes. Because om is Arkan's father" said Pangestu occasionally glanced in a beautiful direction.
"Dad, is om really Arkan's father?", asked Arkan plainly to Indah. Beautiful can only nod.
"Hore, Arkan already has a father. hurrah", Arkan was so happy it was amazing. Can't wait for him to come home soon so he can play with Pangestu soon.
Pangestu and Indah were so patiently waiting for Arkan in the hospital. Because Arkan still needs treatment for his wound that is quite wide and deep. Arkan has not been allowed to return home.
Time has shown at 19:00.
Usually Pangestu comes home to see Shifa at 18:00. Pangestu tried to tell his whereabouts to Shifa, so that Shifa was not confused and urgently waiting for the continued return of Pangestu.
Pangestu said by phone, when it was beautiful to be outside buying food. Arkan was also sound asleep.
"Shifa, sorry tonight I can't go home. Because I was staying at the brother's place", Pangestu told me over the phone.
"Oh, okay. Don't forget to eat dinner. You'll relapse" Shifa advised in a soft and disappointed voice. But Shifa did not show disappointment. Shifa did not want to ask a lot suspiciously to Pangestu. Shifa tried to stay strong.
Actually Shifa from this afternoon had prepared a menu for dinner. Shifa cooked Pangestu's favorite menu. Nila fried with vegetable kale squid.
Shifa could only resign. "Surely staying at your house, somehow my feeling is less sure. Because when they married none of the Pangestu families were present", Shifa's inner heart, her feeling said that Pangestu was with another woman.
Pangestu immediately hung up the phone so beautifully went into the room.
"Who did you call?", asked beautifully curiously.
"Shifa, I told her that I can't go home" I told Indah.
"Have you come home, I can keep Arkan here", beautifully refused.
"Please beautiful, don't you ever forbid me to meet Arkan. I want to stay here to keep Arkan. Since I've promised to always meet her", Pangestu was a little emotional. It's beautiful just to be quiet.
"I'm afraid that Arkan is expecting too much from you, when you'll finally leave him", beautifully honest about his feelings.
"I won't leave you", hug Pangestu tightly as he beautifully stands preparing their dinner.
"Oh yeah, what food do you bring, can we eat now?. I was so hungry", Pangestu was so eager to eat, all the while diverting the conversation about Shifa.
They also eat the food presented in front of him and occasionally laugh. When you tell a funny thing.

For 3 days Pangestu never returned home, because he was in the hospital looking after Arkan. Before every day before night, want to get dinner time. Shifa always asked Pangestu over the phone.
"Tonight you go home right?, I've cooked your favorite menu", asked Shifa every day, hoping Pangestu came home to see her.
"I can't go home yeah, I'm still at brother's place",
Shifa was sad and disappointed, but could not do anything about it. Can only surrender.
Shifa ended up shutting herself in her room, not even touching the dinner she had cooked since this afternoon.
"Shifa, let's eat dong. It's late for dinner. Papa was waiting for you to come to the dining table. Even locked himself in the room", Shifa still did not want to go out.
"Shifa, come on dong. Papa is hungry. Mubajir dong food that you have cooked with a recipe full of love and affection, must be wasted" Burhan continues to try to persuade Shifa to want to eat.
"Poor Shifa, maybe Pangestu doesn't come home again to eat this. Shifa also looks a bit thin right now", Burhan murmured inwardly.
Not long after, Shifa came out of her room.
"Come, let's eat. The rice and fish will not run out. Shifa will love to the neighbors", Shifa headed to the dining table, directly scooping the rice onto Burhan's plate and immediately handed it to Burhan.
"Honey you divorced from Pangestu. Than you eat hearts like this. Papa look at you a bit messy. You don't have to lie to me, papa. Papa knows that Pangestu has not been home for three nights. Where did he say he was going?", asked Burhan wanting to know Pangestu's whereabouts.
"Pangestu went and stayed at his brother's house. On what basis did Shifa sue for divorce from Pangestu?. Shifa is okay pa, let Shifa again reduce the portion of the meal, so as not to look fat", Shifa gave an excuse.
"Maybe there's something important to take care of. So it takes a long time", Shifa added.
"Why do you defend Pangestu keep Shifa, papa already knows. And papa doesn't want you to suffer and get sick" Burhan feels sorry for Shifa's condition.
"Shifa does not want to divorce Pangestu, pa", Shifa continues to devour her rice until it runs out. After the rice ran out, Shifa immediately washed the dirty dishes in the sink and said to go back to her room. Burhan is just a head-scalp.
"What's on Shifa's mind. Why maintain a marriage that is no longer useful, instead make Shifa suffer" Burhan murmured in his heart.

Today Arkan has been allowed to return home, his wounds have dried, although still bandaged.
"Dad went with Arkan and mom came home" asked Arkan, feeling happy to be allowed to go home, and impatient to play with Pangestu. Because Pangestu had previously promised to always accompany Arkan.
"Yes dong, I'll come home with you guys to the house", Pangestu glanced towards Indah. Beautiful just silence there is no expression rejecting the presence of Pangestu in his home.
