Romeo sat on a chair beside the gurney. His eyes can not be separated staring at the baby boy who was cool to suck. The view looks so incredible to him. Such a small creature, who had just seen the world, already had the instinct to search for the source of his life. Even can immediately decorate sap without being taught.
In the room, only the two of them live and a nurse who is sorted out, the others have gone out including the doctor.
Rere felt uneasy with Romeo's gaze towards his chest. He tries to pull the blanket over to cover it from Romeo's view.
"Why is it uncomfortable to see it?"
"A, I_" Rere confused to explain.
"Trust me, I was focusing on looking at that tiny mouth that was busy nursing, nothing else. And isn't that halal for me to see?" Rere ran out of words hearing that, because what Romeo said was true. "But if you're uncomfortable, I'll look the other way."
Romeo turned his body. The one who had been sitting facing Rere, was now facing the other direction. To him, the most important thing was the comfort of Rere.
Rere looked at the baby boy's face above his chest. Swiping soft skin soft red berperahan it. Her hair was very black and thick. And the most make him run out of words, the face of the baby boy is very similar to Romeo.
"It seems he was very afraid of not being recognized. Is her face very similar to yours?"
Whether Romeo is too baper or what, said Rere sounds like a satire to him. He remembered his original intentions. She wanted to make the woman she raped pregnant without knowing her father, that meant, she intended not to take responsibility.
"I'm that bad." It turned out that admitting the mistake was indeed something difficult, the proof was that Meo felt very heavy to say that. "But can't someone change? I'm not gonna ask you to hold on for a kid. Because I'm sure it's not the right thing. But_" Romeo couldn't bear to keep talking without seeing his opponent. He finally turned his seat to face Rere.
"But can you give me one more chance. Not for the sake of children, but for the sake of happiness. The happiness of the three of us." Romeo, who comes from a toxic family, knows what the weight of living in the midst of unhappy parents, who each meet just fight and fight. Under the pretext of surviving because of the child, they actually make things worse for the child himself.
Rere just kept quiet, he didn't know what to answer. Between love and hate, the two flavors mix for Romeo.
Romeo grabbed Rere's hand and grabbed it. "I will always try to make you and your child happy. If you believe me, please give me a chance to prove it."
Rere could not give a direct answer, as he was still too confused by his own feelings. Hate but love, that's what Rere feels.
Romeo touched the baby boy's head and rubbed it slowly. As Rere's heart thumped, he feared Romeo's swipe at his sensitive area.
Finished imd, Rere transferred to the outpatient room. There Jia and Tomas look excited because they can finally see and hold their grandchildren. The happiness of the immeasurable was able to make Tomas forget Romeo. No longer busy scolding her even though they were in the same room.
Romeo was silent, sitting next to the gurney, watching the happiness of his father-in-law. He could not wait to share this happy news with his mother. But he was still waiting a little while longer because it was still too early.
Jia fondled her granddaughter with a very wide smile. There were so many prayers for his first grandchild.
"Do you want anything?" ask Romeo to Rere. "Would I buy you some food, maybe you're hungry?"
Rere nodded, he was indeed starving at the moment. Unfortunately, there was no food from the hospital.
"What food do you want?"
"As far as you are."
"I'll go first. Just for a second, 'cause I won't be able to last long without seeing you." Said Romeo as he moved from his seat.
Rere hissing softly. Surprised by Romeo who can still fight when their relationship is not good.
"Bah, Mah, I want to go out for food for Rere. Do you want something, let me buy it?"
"No need, go" said Tomas ketus.
Jia shook her head to see her husband return to early fashion. It seemed to be getting friendly when he saw his grandson.
"Em.can you please buy me some bread, and I'm hungry." Since yesterday afternoon, Jia had not eaten at all.
Romeo nodded then exited the room.
When they were only three, Tomas immediately approached Rere and asked him to speak. "Are you and Romeo better?" He was very curious because since then, Romeo was sitting near Rere. Even Tomas accidentally sees Romeo holding Rere's hand.
"Bah, Rere just finished giving birth. What to talk about that right now. He's tired, let him rest" Jia scolded.
"If I decide to make peace with the situation and get back with Romeo, will you give me permission?"
"No." Fast Tomas. "He's not a good man."
Rere shaking. "He's a good guy. It's just that he's never been a philanderer. Is not man the wrong place?"
"Mama agrees that you and Romeo are better. This kid needs a dad. And mama see, his inner bond with Romeo is very close. He even just wanted to come out when accompanied by his father."
Tomas clucked when he heard his wife again defending Romeo.
