Neal ran down from the helicopter that landed on the roof of the hospital building followed by Mark behind him, quickly descending the stairs to the floor below him, once in front of the elevator Neal immediately pressed the number seven button, the floor where his wife's room was undergoing treatment. Neal felt the elevator running so slowly that it hit the litf wall with annoyance, Mark who saw the panic of Neal did not dare to make a sound.
Ting…!
As soon as the elevator door opened with Neal's quick steps towards his wife's nursery which was only a few meters away, Neal's trembling hands turned the doorknob and pushed it slowly. The first thing he saw was both his pours and Anara's parents surrounding the bed, they simultaneously turned their eyes away as soon as they heard footsteps approaching.
Neal's arrival was greeted by the gazes of both his parents and Anara's parents, the room was so quiet only the sound of a monitoring device of his wife's heartbeat, his wife, their tense faces seemed to inform his current state of affairs, slowly moving away from Ara's bed gave Neal room to look at his wife. Neal looked at his lying wife as he continued closer until his steps were restrained by his wife's bed, he gulped bitterly, and, so devastated to see his wife's condition his face was so pale that gauze wrapped his wife's head.
Neal leaned on his wife and cupped Ara's cheeks with her two large hands slowly closing her lips and kissed her soft pale lips, then moved to the top of Ara's nose and then moved to her forehead, for a long time Neal let go of her kiss, she could not hold back her tears, gently rubbed the top of his wife's head wrapped in gauze looks reddened, the cloth looks reddened, Neal did not know if it was red medicine or blood that seeped through the cloth. Slowly his hand moved on his wife's cheek which had some scratches there.
“I'm sorry dear..If I had brought you with me of course this wouldn't have happened, you wouldn't be lying here,” whispered Neal lirih sambail holding Ara's hand tightly and then kissing her softly.
All that was there was just a look at each other seeing Neal's interaction with Arabella raises various questions in their minds, seeing Neal's sadness even he doubted, things that Maria had never seen, she said,
even when Anara was sick Neal did not cry even though she looked so sad and hurt.
Slowly Dimitri stepped closer to his son, rubbing Neal's back gently and then embracing his eldest son's shoulder.
“After this meet us..many things you may need to explain to us,” said Dimitri slowly while releasing his embrace to Neal. There was no answer from Neal he just raised his face to look at his father.
****
Neal was sitting on the sofa, right in front of her parents and Papa Anara, Neal tried to stare at the faces of those who were also watching her, Neal took a deep breath and let out a rough breath
really he did not like being in this room, if he could choose better he accompanied his wife who now had to be accompanied by Karen.
Dimintri looked at his wife who was sitting next to him, then turned to Ivander who was sitting on the sofa beside him, while Helena did not attend because she had to undergo treatment because of her weak condition. Seeing those who had not dared to start him he decided to speak first.
“Nak, how are you dealing with Arabella now?” dimitri asked open her voice, trying to break the silence between them.
“What makdsud Daddy,” Tanya Neal frowned in wonder.
“Neal, you've been married to Arabella for a few months, maybe a lot of things have happened without us knowing, now Daddy wants to ask if he's still the Arabella you hate so much?”
Hating Arabella, maybe he had hated her before but that was the question now really pierced his heart, a little bit of it no longer in his heart, no more, remembering he had done that made him regret it so much. That pain was the thing he felt now as he watched his wife get hurt and helpless. Neal looked at the faces of the people he respected who were in front of him alternately.
“Not...where maybe I I can hate him,” Neal denied firmly.
“If you don't hate her anymore, do you love her now?’ dimitri asked without further ado, because the attitude his son showed was enough to give a clear explanation to him.
The question asked by his Daddy was very direct in his heart. He had fallen in love with Ara, it was a question that always disturbed his heart, whether the sense of comfort when close to him, the longing that always struggled when not seeing his face, the feeling of being close to him, whether it was a feeling of love or just his love for Ara.
When Neal heard bad news from him, he felt something detached from his body, he felt his body light as it floated unsteady on earth, fear enveloping him, the fear that he would leave her, just imagining it made Neal's heart beat in pain. And it didn't hurt as much as when he saw Anara who was also lying helplessly in front of him, although he was sad and hit but it didn't feel the same as what he felt now.
He can't deny his heart and feelings anymore, maybe now is the most appropriate time for him to admit that the feeling he had been feeling was not because of pity but he had indeed fallen in love with Arabella, the woman who made him couldn't control his feelings and thoughts
with him, the opposite heart and behavior, the face that he always wanted to kiss when and wake up even though he did not dare to do so, he always denied his behavior with his heart. It's time he honestly won't lie anymore, if now Arabella the woman who has her heart has every beat in her body, there's no gap for anyone else there, even though it was Anara, a woman who had been filling her heart for two years, the woman who was almost married.
The woman he once rejected and thought of as a lowly woman had stolen all her life, everything that happened to her was no coincidence, Ara was the soul mate God sent her and she came this way.
Seeing Neal just speechless Ivander joined in talking,” asked your little heart do not be afraid because honesty though it is very painful is more valuable than a lie because it just wants to make others happy and happy, because it just wants to make others happy and happy,the most honest thing is what your little heart says you should never deny it because regret always comes at the end, and when you realize it but you have no chance to fix it again.”
Silence shrouded them again, Neal smacked the face of the person in front of him who was waiting for his answer.
“Papa is right, no matter how bitter honesty is better than a pretense, and here I will not lie to myself again, you may already know how much I refuse this marriage, that moment
I'm so mad at you guys that I never said it, but now that it's all turned upside down I'm really grateful to you Mom for finding Arabella for me. Neal stopped her words while looking at her mommy's face looking at her with teary eyes, Neal resumed speaking.
“This is the answer from my deepest heart, I have fallen in love with Ara bella. I..I love Arabella, love her so much even I have never felt this much love, my life so feels perfect when with her.” Neal said in a trembling voice but was full of emphasis in each of his words.
Neal looked at Ivander who was also looking at her,” papa forgive me, I have betrayed Anara, but it is the honesty of my heart from my little heart, I just want to be honest with my feelings, I just want to be honest with my feelings, how is it that when Anara wakes up and I live with her but my heart is owned by another woman, it will only hurt Anara because my life and my heart have been owned by Arabella completely now and for all eternity,” further
Neal had without the slightest hesitation from his face.
