(Not) Forbidden Love

24.Tamara's Requirements

"Sorry sir and mistress, I don't want to take, I just ask to be allowed to be together again with my daughter, I miss her so much" Without feeling, her face has been soaked with tears.

"Why did I ask permission? because either way you two have been taking good care of my daughter, even though you guys took it the wrong way"

Barnest and Lucia looked at each other in silence, they remembered when they decided to take Bella and did not want to leave her to her biological mother at that time.

There is a sense of regret in their hearts, because it has been so heartbreaking to separate a mother with her daughter, they also feel how tortured a mother must lose her child, let alone lost not knowing the jungle.

"But Bella is still recovering, she still needs to be treated" Barnest said.

"I know, sir, I will wait for him to fully recover, so that he is also ready to hear the reality"

"Well, we'll let you know if he's really recovered, as you said, he really needs to be physically and mentally fit, so he's strong enough to accept this reality."

"You don't have to tell him, because I'll always be monitoring through my man."

After some talk, Tamara leaves behind two people who are overcome with grief at the loss of their daughter, though they do not know when.

"Why are you both outside? who was that woman in the wheelchair?" megan asked as her parents entered the nursery.

"Oh that. mama's friend, she wanted to visit Bella, but she said she wanted to wait for her husband first, uh her question after coming, her husband immediately invited her back, she said she had an impromptu meeting" Lucia made up the story. Megan just nodded to hear it.

"Your sister sleeping?" ask Barnest.

"Yes pa, let it be, he looks very tired. Papa same mom why look so sad? is there something that has happened?" Megan asked because she saw a different face from her parents.

"Maybe your mom is as tired as you are, you know, as long as your sister is not as funny as you can't really rest" Lucia lied again.

"Then, my mommy is sleeping first! rest yourself!"

"Yes mommy's just as dad rest first."

Lucia and Barnest step into a room in Bella's nursery, and lie there.

They can finally rest their bodies

they're both a few sa'at.

In the afternoon, everyone gathered together including Bella's grandmother and grandfather, they just arrived at the hospital. Suddenly Barnest's phone rang, he slightly stepped away from the guest room, and immediately raised the call.

Finished receiving the call, Barnest's aura instantly changed, like someone who was holding back a great fury.

"What's pa?" Lucia who followed saw her husband who was sitting in the chair like he was holding back anger.

"Ma, papa has to go to Indonesia, there's a problem there." Barnest.

"What problem pa? Company?"

Barnest nodded. "Megan can not travel far, so let papa take care of this sa'at!"

"O that way, when is papa leaving?"

"Tonight ma," Lucia simply nodded in permitting omens. She believed in Barnest so much that she never suspected him.

Lucia never forbade anything her husband would do. And Barnest was also a man to be trusted, despite his freedom from his wife, he never betrayed Lucia.

Evening arrives, Bella and Megan feel something is lacking.

"Oh yes mama forgot to say, papa to Indonesia, he said there is a problem there."

"What problem ma?" ask Megan curiously.

"Like the company, what's the problem with Megan's company?" Lucia asked back.

"No ma, all this time is still conducive" Megan explained. They were silent for a moment.

Megan felt that something was important, but her heart said that her father's trip to Indonesia was not a matter of work, but there were other things that were more important.

"Here you go, maybe there's something your papa really needs to deal with, let's eat!" those who really want to have dinner, continue the activity.

"Mom eat, let Bella eat alone!"

"Let's just mama, you're sick!"

Bell was unable to refuse, mouth after mouth into his mouth, until only half.

"Udah ma, Bella is full, now mama eat yes!"

"Well, Megan, are you done too?"

"Udah ma."

Lucia eats alone, not alone, because she is still with Bella and Megan, only they have finished eating.

"Sister, donk's story how big brother ended the accident! did you faint too?"

Bella is curious about her brother's condition after the events that happened to them. They had finished eating, including the mother who had missed eating.

"Yes, my sister also fainted, while still in the car, she still had time to call your name, shortly after, everything felt spinning, and finally darkened," Megan explained.

"But luckily he was so badly injured, only an external wound, this," he pointed to his bandaged forehead.

"Do you know what, baby?" lucia glanced at Megan, She wanted to talk to Bella, but her eyes glanced at Megan.

"You what ma?" ask Bella curious.

"Your brother, so frustrated to know you're critical, he cried roaring no matter what people looked at him. He also slammed what was near him, until the mother who had to take pains to calm him" explained Lucia.

"Oh yeah?" bella asked as if she could not believe her fierce-looking brother could cry as well. "Sister can cry too?" it was Ledek Bella who made Lucia laugh but Megan was just pissed off.

"Dear, my mom didn't think your sister was like that either. And you know what? he also punched the wall until his hand was injured."

"Ish brother, can't you like that ah, if his hands why-why how? you have to control your emotions!"

"Yes you know, at that time my sister was really stifled, I don't know, my heart and mind were already very overwhelmed with sadness and anxiety," Megan explained as she stroked the back of her sister's hand attached to the infusion tube, which was a little too big, his mother was next to him again.

"Why are you worried?"

"I'm worried you won't wake up again." His eyes were already hot, as if something was going to come out of the corner of his eyes, but he immediately brushed it off with his thumb.

"Don't be sad again, brother! bella is conscious now" he said with a smile.

"Partially if Bella does not wake up again, it means that Bella's destiny is her name, sister can not violate destiny! will not every living person feel death, and every meeting has a farewell?"

Hearing Bella's words, Lucia sheds her tears, remembering the past, where her little daughter was called the owner, and soon Bell will leave her, back to the person who gave birth to her.
