You're My Antidote
The Wound of a Renata

I don't know what Rani is feeling right now. After the surprise he had so many times. He should be happy to know the identity of his parents. Knowing the background he was looking at. Knowing why he was in an orphanage. Rani should be happy, right? because what he wanted from childhood finally materialized.

But why hurt this? After knowing he was born from a hidden relationship. After knowing his mother had gone home without having time he saw and hugged her. After knowing the reason for being in the home. Now he must receive information on who the identity of his father is that turned out to be unusual.

Who does not know Rio Darmawan. Successful business people across the country. Friendly figure in every camera highlight. A man who still looks handsome at his age.

And Rere? he just found out if Renata the only daughter of Rio Darmawan is Rere who he had known all along. Because indeed, Rio never introduced his son on the glass screen. Rio always reasoned if the man wanted his daughter to have a normal life. Where not many people know and can maintain their privacy. Because living as a famous person is not easy. For Rio.

Rani's life has been turned upside down since she was an orphaned child in a foster home as the daughter-in-law of Rasya Shandika. A life that has changed drastically. A wonderful life for him to live.

Now her life is more unexpected after knowing Rio is her father and Rere who was once her husband's bedmate turns out to be her own half-sister. Where in their bodies flow the same blood. Blood of the Darmawan clan.

If Rani could choose. He would rather not know all these facts. She wanted her normal life with her husband a few days ago without any shadow of her biological family.

Or if you can choose, Rani prefers to be born from both parents with ordinary social status. Unhungry people are forced to leave him in a home. Like his shadow all this time. Rani prefers it all over the reality she has to face now.

And Rani hopes, when the DNA test is done later, hopefully the results are negative. He hoped that he was not the Raisa that the Adit family had been looking for. It's not another kid that makes Rere's life so easy.

However, if he were really brothers with Rere, he would feel very guilty. Although it was not he who hurt the woman. But inevitably he is the reason Rere's life is not easy and neglected by his father.

The king told me everything. From the identity of his biological father, to how the man tried to find him to ignore his other daughter. The reason that made Rere what he is today. Because Rere grew up without the affection of his parents, especially his father who never thought it existed.

The king did not say what happened to Rere was his fault. But Rani can imagine for herself how the woman's position is. And the hate he once felt for Rere has now turned to guilt.

His life is not easy being a child. But it turns out Rere also does not live easily even though the woman lives by his parents' side. So nothing makes Rani jealous of Rere's life who can live with their father.

With different conditions, they both have an easy day in different places.

"Rani wants to see Rere, mas." she said after shrinking tears from her face. Keep the body of the King who hugged him warm.

"You sure? you know what Rere looks like, right?"

Rani nodded. He clearly knew how haughty and stubborn Rere was. But anyway, he also wanted to hug his sister. Can he call Rere a sister? the brother he never knew existed.

After once again trying to convince him, the King immediately took him to the hospital where Rere was treated.

When they arrived at the hospital, his steps were not as sure as before. His steps began to hesitate approaching the VIP room where Rere was.

"Why baby?" ask the King gently. The priest had not let go of their hands for a second since they had come from home.

"There's Adit inside. There is me and there is Moses who will take care of you, if you are afraid."

Since childhood Rere had to give up their father who loved him more who somehow. Even when Rere likes Raja-pun, Rere still has to give up because the King prefers and loves him. So Rani can understand how much hate Rere to her later. But the pain that Rani saw, would she be able to bear that guilt?

Rani nodded, she was ready to accept all of Rere's anger later. He will make amends for the mistakes he never made. He will make up for the pain Rere has been feeling.

Moses opened the door for them. Inside Rere was tidy and ready to go home. Her face was no longer as seductive as the last time Rani visited. No longer seem as frustrating as it was then. Maybe Rere's child's condition is more stable until Rere is more able to accept the situation.

"So you're Raisa?" they were immediately greeted by a cynical question from Rere who was sitting in a cage with his hands folded on his chest. Rere had also returned to staring at him as sharply as before.

"I'm still Rani." said Rani with a trembling voice. If fighting for the King, maybe Rani can be arrogant and challenge Rere. But for this one matter, he had no defense for his own status.

"Lo know how much I hate you?!" rere's voice began to rise. "Lo know how much I hate you that I don't even know who it is?!"

Rani. Clenching his hand with the King.

"GUE HATE YOU!!" shout Rere. But not as cute as the woman shifted from her seat. Unlike what Rani imagined if Rere would directly slap and attack him hatefully. The woman was just cursing with all forms of maki poisons that exist. He breathed out his anger and pain through words.

Rani no longer dared to look Rere in the face after Rere's first sentence. Rani does not dare to risk feeling guilty for the rest of her life.

"Bokap is like a crazy person every day! go early for work and come home in the middle of the night just for nyari elo who knows where! either alive or dead!"

The king changed his embrace as his body began to tremble withstanding the cries.

"Bokap only care about you! it's just you that every night that asshole is tangisin!!" rere's voice is still rising. A shriek that felt slashing for Rani. "No matter if he has me..."

Rani was also stunned in tears when the sentence was spoken softly. As if full of pain that can not be completed said.

"Gue's his son too, right?"___"Gue is also his daughter... But why have you never seen me?" rere's crying was very painful for Rani. This is all he fears. He was afraid to see how deep Rere's heart hurt. "Why have I never been able to sedikiiiiit aja.. kap affection for you? WHY?!"

Rani looks up when Rere starts to get hysterical and is hugged by Malvin.

"Is it because papi doesn't love mommy? does papi not feel affection for his own flesh and blood?"

Rani was no longer able to hear all that. Rani hugged her husband. Closing his ears from all the pain Rere said.
