The sun hangs beautifully on the western horizon. Be a marker, that the night will soon arrive. Being a marker, that the sky will begin to be decorated by the colorful flickering of the star.
Ardi looked up at his sleeping son. He had just eaten, after a day his stomach was empty because he had to fast before the operation. And after eating, he just fell asleep.
Ardi was actually quite exhausted today. Waiting for the operation, which took almost five hours, left him severely exhausted. Not to mention, his mind clearly branched out on the figure who was both lying weakly in that hospital. It's just, different room.
As Kenzo sleeps, Ardi exits the room and moves to the next room. Niken and Rama have just come from there. And now, it's Ardi's turn to go there. And now Umar went with Rama and Niken. Umar will return with Rama. Because he was not allowed to stay in the hospital.
"Where's your condition?" Ask Ardi attentively.
"It's better, Mom. How's Kenzo?" Ask Aini a little worried.
"He was sleeping, after eating that."
"Did he ask me?"
"Yes. But take it easy, I've made up excuses that can get you enough rest! Because I don't want your condition to weaken like that either."
"What did you say to Kenzo?"
"I said you're not feeling well, so you need to rest at home."
"Why didn't Mas tell Kenzo the truth?"
"I made a promise to myself, to keep it a secret from Kenzo. So, I can't break it."
"But this is gonna make it hard for you, Mom?"
"You don't have to think about that! You just need to rest for now. Okay?"
Aini silently did not answer. He looked at Ardi closely.
"I'll go to Kenzo's room for a second! I have something to say to my mom."
Aini nodded in understanding. Ardi immediately returned to Kenzo's ward. And when he entered, just as Rama was going home with Umar.
"Mom go home with papa! I'll be here guarding Kenzo." Pinta Ardi soon.
"Here?" Niken asked confusedly.
"I'll keep them alternating. It'd be weird if Mama kept Kenzo here. And Kenzo will ask that later." Obviously Ardi was short.
"Then let Mama take care of Aini."
"Don't, Ma! Mama must be tired of waiting for Kenzo's surgery. Mom just went home with papa. Ardi will tell you later if Ardi needs anything or anything."
"Yes, Ma. After all, Ardi is not alone either, right?" Tymphal Rama.
"Poor Ardi, Pa." Bela Niken's.
"Ardi is not papa, Ma. Mama went home with Papa and Umar!"
"But In,,"
Ardi immediately took Niken's bag. He approached Niken and forced him to return with Rama and Umar.
Niken finally gave up. He went home with Rama and Umar. And Ardi remained alone who accompanied Kenzo and Aini.
Initially, Ardi is relieved that Niken helped him accompany Kenzo in the hospital. But he realized, it would be very strange if Niken accompanied Kenzo in the hospital, instead of Ardi. Because originally, he would accompany Aini if it was night.
Ardi also felt sorry for his mother, because she must be exhausted from almost a day in the waiting room for surgery in the hospital. For his favorite grandson.
After Rama, Niken and Umar return home, and make sure Kenzo is still asleep, Ardi goes to the next room. Definitely to meet Aini.
"Kenzo?" Aini asked immediately, after seeing Ardi enter her ward.
"Still sleeping." Reply Ardi casually.
"With Miss Niken?"
"alone."
"Mas don't joke!"
"really. Mama came home with papa and Umar just now."
"Then, why are you here? Poor Kenzo, Mas."
"He's still sleeping, honey. Be calm! I'd like to accompany you for a minute."
"Maass, pity Kenzo."
Ardi immediately attached his index finger to Aini's lips. Aini was silent for a moment.
"Don't force me to kiss you, baby!" Threaten Ardi while holding back a laugh.
Aini finally just shook her head resignedly. They chatted for a while, while Ardi enjoyed his much-delayed lunch. Because it is, the day has begun to twilight.
And as Ardi finished his meal, his phone rang.
"I'll go to Kenzo's room first, yeah! He's up like that." Pamit Ardi is soon.
"Yes, Mum."
Ardi smiled warmly at Aini. With a hand that gently rubbed Aini's head, lovingly.
"Call me, if you need anything!" Pinta Ardi before leaving.
Aini just nodded. Ardi immediately came out of Aini's ward. And immediately moved to Kenzo's ward.
And it turns out, Kenzo is awake. That's Ardi's bodyguard calling. He's been asked by Ardi, if Kenzo wakes up, to call him right away.
So, the bodyguard in front of Kenzo's ward immediately contacted Ardi, when Kenzo was seen opening his eyes. And Ardi understood that.
"Where's the man from?" Ask Kenzo.
"Papa received the phone earlier, in front." Lying Ardi.
Kenzo obviously didn't have any suspicions about his father. He just believed in his dear father. Actually, I lied to him a little.
Time keeps passing. Until night has come. It all feels so calm. Because rainwater does not greet the earth. Until, ceklek.
"Mama?" Call Kenzo enthusiastic.
Ardi who was also staring at the door that suddenly opened without any excuse, immediately rounded his eyes. He was surprised by the presence of someone he did not expect. Someone who has never been asked to visit.
"Oliv? What's he here for?" Inner Ardi was upset.
"Yes, Honey. Mama's coming." Answer the guest with a beautiful smile.
He is Oliv. The unexpected guest was Oliv. He came alone to the hospital.
Kenzo was so happy to see his mother. She did not expect that her mother would come to see her in the hospital. Because as far as Kenzo knows, the operation he did earlier, not many know. That's what Ardi told him.
"It still hurts a little, Ma, Kenzo's back." Adu Kenzo spoiled.
Oliv walked towards Kenzo. He did not care about Ardi who looked at him annoyed and angry.
"It's okay, baby! It will heal slowly." Say Oliv while gently rubbing Kenzo's cheek.
"Yes, Ma." Kenzo replied with a smile.
"Mother Aini, where are you treated, Ken?" Ask Oliv curious.
"Mother,,"
"Kenzo! Papa wants to talk to Mama for a while outside. May? There's something you want to tell Mom." Sela Ardi soon.
Kenzo and Oliv, who had been very busy chatting, immediately turned to look at Ardi who was standing next to Oliv. Oliv realizes that there is something that Ardi has kept secret and wants to tell him. And that must be about Aini.
"Yes, Pa. Don't be long, Pa!" Answer Kenzo anxiously.
"Yes. Just for a second!" Ardi said with a smile.
"Just a minute, baby!" Soft Oliv pump.
Kenzo nodded with a smile. And after that, Ardi immediately stepped out of the nursery. Oliv then followed Ardi with curiosity that filled his head.
"Why, Mas?" Oliv asked immediately, after he and Ardi were outside Kenzo's ward.
"Don't ask anything about Aini to Kenzo, right now!" Pinta Ardi is firm.
"What's the matter, Mom? Did he hurt Kenzo?" Oliv asked, curious.
Ardi silently did not answer. Ardi was actually very lazy to meet face to face with his ex-wife. But destiny says something else. He must meet with Oliv at this time, because after all, Oliv is Kenzo's biological mother.
"That woman! I've guessed. He must have just used your kindness, Mas. He must have run away, right? He just wants your money, as payment because he's donated his spinal cord to Kenzo. Isn't that right, Mas? You matrialistic woman!" Umpat Oliv is proud.
"So what you say!" Censured Ardi.
"Alright, Mom! No need to defend a woman like that! Take it easy, I'll help you keep Kenzo!" Seduce Oliv slowly.
"Don't dream! I'm still very capable of taking care of the people I care about, without your help."
"I just want to help you, Mom. Besides, I'm Kenzo's mother."
"Mother did you say? Kenzo doesn't need a mother like you! She already has a mother who is always there for her and is willing to do anything for her. Remember that!"
"really? Then where is he now? Didn't you just say, he left with the money?"
"I never said that. You said it yourself. And just so you know, Aini's not going anywhere. He is recovering from his transplant. He had to hide it for a while from Kenzo, so he could recover. Because Kenzo doesn't know if Aini is the donor for him."
"What's? Then,,? But, why would Mas keep that from Kenzo?"
Oliv's brain suddenly froze. He was confused to answer all Ardi's words. He really did not expect, Aini still survives beside Ardi at this time. He who was already very proud because he managed to drop Aini in the eyes of Ardi, it turns out he himself who accidentally showed his bad side in front of Ardi.
"That's none of your business! But, it looks like it would be very interesting, if Kenzo got to know, that Aini is a donor for him." Said Ardi, whispering slightly in Oliv's ear.
"I mean, Mas?"
"Wouldn't it be very good for Aini, if Kenzo came to know, if Aini was a donor for him. Kenzo will love Aini even more, because Aini wants to be her helper. Being an indirect donor, heals the pain he has suffered so far. It would be easy for me, making Aini a real wife and mother to Kenzo." Replied Ardi with a thin smile full of triumph.
Oliv immediately rounded his eyes. He really understands what Ardi said just now. Which means that, he will no longer have the chance to get back to Kenzo and Ardi, as he had planned.
"Okay, I get it. I'll keep that a secret from Kenzo. Then, where is Aini now?" Answer Oliv gurgaon.
"Why are you asking that?" Ask Ardi casually.
"Me, me, I want to thank him. Yeah, I want to thank him."
"I'll tell him later. You don't need to know where Aini is now!"
"But Mas, I want to tell him directly."
"No need! After all, Aini needed a full break for her condition to recover soon. So, he couldn't accept a visit from anyone right now." Reject Ardi without hesitation.
Oliv snorted in annoyance. But, he tried hard to resist his frustration in order to take the sympathy of Ardi who had destroyed himself earlier.
"OK, Mum. Please give my thanks to him!" Said Oliv as kindly as possible, to cover his heart.
"Yes." Yeah."
Ardi then just stepped foot, back to Kenzo's nursery. He ignored Oliv, who he knew very well, was very upset at the moment.
While Oliv, after Ardi re-entered Kenzo's nursery, he immediately stomped his feet in great annoyance.
"Based on a fucking woman! I need to get rid of him!" Umpat Oliv in heart, with a streak of anger in her beautiful eyes.
Oliv tries to quell his anger before he goes back into Kenzo's ward. He did not want this to happen again. An incident in which he was unconscious was indulging his ugliness in front of his target.
"Which mom, Pa?" Kenzo asked, after Ardi entered alone.
"Mama's talking to the nurse." Lying Ardi.
Kenzo just nodded in understanding. And before long, Oliv went into Kenzo's nursery. Oliv smiled warmly at Kenzo. They talk about a lot of things. Oliv even feeds Kenzo, at Kenzo's request.
And when that happens, Ardi goes to Aini's outpatient room to see her condition. Aini pensively alone there.
"Kenzo?" Ask Aini worried.
"With Oliv." Honestly Ardi.
Aini stunned. For the past few years, he had forgotten Kenzo's mother figure. So, he was a little surprised, when he found out Oliv was with Kenzo at the moment.
"Calm down! He just wanted to see Kenzo's condition." Said Ardi, who understood Aini's gelagat.
"Oliv said thank you too." Imbuh Ardi's.
Aini just smiled a little. He doesn't know why, there's a little bit of disappointment and dislike when Ardi tells him about Oliv. Even if it was just because he answered the question.
"I'll be back later. I don't want to, Oliv said a no-no to Kenzo when I wasn't around." Pamit Ardi slowly.
Aini just nodded. He can't hold Ardi for any reason. Because he also did not want to, Kenzo was suspicious of Ardi's departure from his nursery for too long.
"Calm down, honey! Don't think too far! Okay?"
Aini nodded back.
Ardi then returned to Kenzo's ward. And as it turns out, Oliv still feeds Kenzo. He did not bother much when his son was. He chose to sit on the sofa while playing his phone to check the work he left all day.
And when visiting hours run out, Oliv tries to seduce Ardi, to be allowed to accompany Kenzo in the hospital tonight. But clearly, rejected outright by Ardi. Oliv finally came home with a very upset heart.
But, behind the frustration of his heart, there was a well-designed plan in his head. A plan he had planned with others, which he had never thought of before.
Every man has his own plans and desires. Have the desire and willingness for what is planned will be immediately implemented and realized without defects. But all the end result, remains with the Almighty. And that's the inevitable.
