After dinner, Agnes seemed busy cleaning up the leftovers and cutlery in the kitchen for some time.
Ara looks start to sleepy because since the day the little girl has not slept, usually when passing her nap, Ara will get a night sleep much earlier.
Hans can be seen slowly carrying the little girl's body with affection, he patted her gently on Ara's back while singing a sleep song for the beautiful girl.
After feeling Ara completely asleep from her sleep, the man slowly led Ara towards the room belonging to the little girl.
With a gentle movement Hans began to put the girl's body on top of her mattress, occasionally he patted softly Ara's chest so that the little girl did not whine and woke up when he realized he had removed his sling.
Hans really saw Ara like his own daughter, because actually since Ara was still in Agnes's stomach, he was the one who always accompanied the woman wherever she stepped.
When she was about to get married, nearly half a year disappeared from Agnes' life, one night Agnes' sister tried to contact her, he asked her for help to get the woman out of Indonesia.
"What's wrong?"
At that time Hans was really surprised when he received a news story behind the lips of Agnes' sister who cried as he pleased behind her cellphone.
"Help me to take care of her and take care of her"
And even more surprisingly there was another life inside Agnes' body back then.
"Who?"
She asked with anger, so hateful that she knew Agnes was pregnant and the man left her.
At first he thought the father of the baby was Agnes' future husband .the grandson of the Nakhel family, but it turns out he was wrong, Agnes who chose to divorce the man because of her pregnancy with another man.
In the end Hans chose not to open the old story and Agnes preferred to be silent about who the father of the future baby.
Hans continued to be by Agnes' side, accompanying her to her birthing procession, wherever Agnes was she always clasped her hand tightly, even every time the examination was done he always said that he was the father of the baby in the woman's womb.
Even as Agnes went through her critical period during childbirth, she was almost like a madman, so panicked and hysterical, she was, it was as if he thought he was the husband of the woman who fought with his life in the operating room and he was the father of the future baby to be born.
She wanted to stop exactly as Agnes requested them to die after Ara was born, but swore by whatever she could not do.
She even willingly gives up her lover for the sake of Agnes and her daughter, also rejecting the matchmaking made her Mama for the sake of Agnes and Ara.
Even for the sake of protecting Agnes from her Mama's hatred, she deceives everyone and says if Ara is her biological daughter, she is even forced to manipulate Ara's DNA Test and make Ara's deed on her behalf.
"Hans?"
Agnes was completely confused by all of Hans's treatment.
"This is to protect you from the scorn of the world hmmm"
"You have a man who loves you, and Ara has a father who wants himself"
"If people ask us why we're not married, it's because we haven't gotten my Mama's blessing"
She knew Agnes had not been able to open her heart, but at least she had already done her best for the people she loved so much.
But the longer he waited for her to finally get tired, Hans thought it might be time he let go of Agnes and Ara.
True love cannot be forced.
3 Months disappeared for him to organize his heart, erode his longing and throw his passionate love.
For a moment the man breathed heavily, then Hans kissed softly Ara's forehead, saying good-bye affectionately then slowly he stepped his feet out of the room dominating the pink.
After slowly closing the door, he slowly stepped towards the kitchen.
He could see Agnes had just finished her work, The man was slowly sitting on the dining chair.
"I'll be home in a minute"
Hans said slowly.
For a moment Agnes was shocked when she heard the voice of the man.
"Hmmm"
Agnes replied as she turned her body, trying to stare into Hans's eyeballs.
"Why did it disappear for so long?"
Agnes asked softly towards the man.
Instead of answering the man widened his smile.
"Is your relationship and Renata okay?"
Ask Agnes again.
Renata?!.
The name seemed to be Agnes's key to avoiding her Self.
"I'm thinking of accepting his feelings"
hans replied as he looked back at Agnes' eyeballs.
"Yes?"
"I thought about your request yesterday, I thought I'd make a proposal for it in the near future"
Hans again.
Hearing the man's words as soon as Agnes clasped her palm tightly, she always said she did not love him for decades but when Hans said she would love him and Ara, she said, preparing to leave them at her request yesterday and having Hans marry their best friend Renata has no idea why her heart is hurting and is not okay.
Why does it feel as if something will disappear from his life.
The figure that was always there for her and Ara as if starting to put an upper distance to her own selfishness.
