***
Daren was sitting pensively at his desk, blankly staring at the laptop screen in front of him.
Daren keeps remembering the meeting and speech from Lina earlier in the hospital, He met with Lina in the hospital, Without anyone knowing anyone.
THE FLASBACK
When Daren was on his lunch break, his cell phone rang. Signs that a message came in, it turned out to be from Lina.
Lina invited Daren to meet at the hospital, and has sent her location. Daren goes straight to see Lina, to the address her ex-wife gave her.
After arriving at the hospital, Daren headed straight for Lina's room which Lina had said, When she entered Lina's room. Daren looks at Lina who is sitting in a wheelchair facing the hospital's outer window, which features a view of the city.
"Hai mas" Sapa Lina, by turning her wheelchair towards Daren
"I don't have time to listen to your stale bases, just get to the point" Daren replied, Sneaking up and sitting in Lina's room in her chair.
"As you can see now, I'm very sick and very bad. Just remembering it makes me even more afraid"
"I don't know either, until when will I survive. Because the cancer in my brain is getting more and more violent and very painful that I feel" Lina said with a smile towards Daren.
Hearing that, Daren immediately gasped in shock. Staring at Lina who was smiling at him, Daren was only able to stay still with eyes that could not be separated staring at Lina.
"I've been honest with you about my current situation, you can believe it or not. It's up to you, 'cause it's your choice, the most important thing is that I just want to, you to take care of our Aurora mas, I don't know when I'm here when it's gonna end. But I'm asking you so much, take care of our Aurora. He's a good boy, a tough kid, and a strong mas" Lina said, With smiles and tears flowing so fast.
"Could you please grant me this last wish mas?, I will give you whatever you want, As long as you are always there for Aurora when I am gone"
Lina's tears flowed so hard, revealing all her final will to Daren, Even though Lina really loves Daren. But Lina already knew herself enough, Can't go back in her ex-husband's arms.
"Well, I'll think..." Daren's speech was cut because Lina first answered him.
"There's nothing to think about anymore, you're the father. You're the only one Aurora has, when I'm gone. He's your real son" replied Lina, who immediately made Daren shut up.
"Why do you always think like that, is there no hope for you to survive?" Ask Daren to Lina.
Lina simply shook her head with a look down.
"Originally you know, all this time Aurora just need, Strength, Compassion, and attention from us. Moreover, the embrace of a father to his daughter" Lirih Lina, who still lowered her head.
Hearing Lina's words, Daren did not reply. She went from Lina's room to her car.
After arriving at the car, Daren's cry broke immediately considering Lina's remark asking her to look after Aurora.
It's not that Daren doesn't want to get close to Aurora, but it's Aurora who will reject Daren, Karna Daren knows enough herself to make a mistake all this time on Aurora.
THE FLASBACK
Daren started the engine of his car, and went to go home.
After arriving home, it turns out that Daren's return has been waiting for Livy in the living room.
"Father" Sapa Livy, by getting up from her seat.
"Yes" Daren replied, smiling at Livy.
"Don't you know, Livy's gonna be in the piano soon, and I know. The person who graduated and will represent our school, Aurora is not Livy" said Livy, who immediately made Daren's smile fade.
Daren just shut up, confused to answer what Livy said.
"Father, even if Livy didn't pass the race. But Livy can ask for the same thing?" Livy asked, Which immediately confused Daren.
"Can you ask me what" Daren replied.
"Livy asks, Pas later Aurora race. Whether you want to win or not, but Livy hopes Aurora will win. Livy just wanted to hug Aurora after Aurora finished the race" Pinta Livy, who immediately made Daren silent mute.
"Can I kabulin Livy's request?" Ask Livy, to make sure Daren agrees or not.
"Alright baby" Daren replied, Gently rubbing Livy's head.
"Thank you for the reward, Anyway later we support Aurora well reward" said Livy, with a sweet smile.
Daren just nodded her head, and passed away leaving Livy, heading for her study. Once in Daren's study, he immediately threw his body to sit on the chair.
Again and again Daren's tears shed, given Lina and Livy's request. The same one asked to give Aurora a hug.
"Sorry Aurora papah, bad papah. Papah is confused about what papah is close to you, Because papah knows how big of a mistake papah makes to be close to you, you will definitely stay away from papah" Lirih Daren.
