Adira walks into the courtroom, where she can see Nadia, Aidan, Noah, and Lily sitting on a chair with people who want to watch the trial. To be honest Adira also felt surprised at the presence of the children but there was no option to retreat anymore.

As he sat on the chair beside his lawyer, he felt the straight gaze of Zein sitting across.

The trial began with the judge reading out the divorce proceedings, and several questions were asked about the changes to Adira and Zein.

“ For the latter I will ask Ms. Adira as the one who filed the lawsuit, what is the reason Mother sued your husband? ” the judge asked seriously.

Adira took a breath.

“ Because I feel unworthy to be a good wife to my husband. I am filled with flaws that make my husband and out I suffer, for that I decided to end this marriage ” Adira replied calmly, he glanced at Zein where the man did not show any expression just remained silent but did not take his eyes off Adira in the least.

The judge nodded his head to accept Adira's answer after considering the proper decision for the case the judge called them both to sit in the reserved seat right in front of the judge.

Adira and Zein are sitting at such a close distance but they each know that it will all be over when the judge knocks the hammer to validate their divorce.

“ In accordance with the request of Ms. Adira as a plaintiff, she refused the submission of inheritance funds from Mr. Zein as the defendant. Also with the filing of alternating schedules of parenting, Ibu Adira also refused to accept the right ”

Zein sees Adira not believing that the girl even refuses the distribution of the schedule to meet the children.

“ Because each party has decided to undergo this trial process well then there is no more thing that needs to be debated further. For that I as the presiding judge of this trial hereby inaugurate brother Zein Brown and sister Adira officially divorced ” said the judge loudly and then tapped the hammer three times.

Not knowing what he was feeling Zein instantly felt a great emptiness as if something was missing from his heart.

All the attendees were ordered to stand up and salute the judge, so the trial was officially completed.

Adira turned to face Zein who was beside her.

“ It's all over.This is the last day I'll see this man. Look again at those shining eyes. I'll keep this moment in my head so I can tell my son what his father is. Even though she didn't know the whereabouts of this child, I promised to raise her well. My son thank you for coming no matter how it happened but I will still accept your presence ”

“ Thank you for everything Mas ” said Adira while thrusting her hand to shake hands as a sign of good farewell with the man.

Zein grabs Adira's hand and slowly pulls Adira's body so she has no choice but to hug the man.

Adira let Zein hug her then slowly she let go of the man's embrace.

“ No problem Mas take this as a parting hug ” reply Adira then she steps away leaving Zein. Because he also had to say farewell to the children who were standing with their heads bowed as if they could not look at Adira again.

First Adira approached Aidan.

“ Thanks to all Aidan, I who initially felt very lonely slowly feel better with you who want to talk or even prank me. Sorry I made you sad ” said Adira slowly.

“ It should be me who apologizes for not being able to appreciate your efforts ” Aidan said softly holding back his tears not to fall.

Adira hugged the boy for a moment.

“ It wasn't your fault.” shrewd Adira.

Then Adira approached Nadia. He thrust his hand to shake the girl. Although a little long finally Nadia welcomed Adira's hand.

“ Sorry because all this time has made you suffer I hope after this everything will be better ” Adira said gently. Nadia looked at Adira actually she wanted to say an apology but her mouth felt so heavy that she just froze.

Adira paused for a moment in front of Noah and extended her hand.

“ Just shake hands I beg ” said Adira because Noah never received his hand. After Adira said so Noah returned Adira's hand.

“ I'm sorry Noah.may you all always be happy ” Adira let go of her hand.

“ You also meet a good man and live your life well ” Noah said quickly and coldly.

Adira smiled briefly at Noah's words and nodded her head in response.

Until the time comes Adira must say goodbye to Lily, the little girl who has always loved Adira sincerely.

Adira lowered her body parallel to Lily then hugged the little girl.

“ Mama thanks for accompanying Lily, Lily is very happy as long as Mama is with Lily. But Lily also knows Mama can not forever be at home ” said Lily softly.

Adira did not expect the boy to understand that Adira was leaving soon.

“ Forgive Mama Lily..Mama can't keep Mama's promise with Lily ”

“ Don't be sad Mama..Lily asked Daddy to bring Mama when Daddy went to work first. Then Daddy brought Mama according to Lily's request but Daddy also told me that Mama's loan contract was up then Lily had to let Mama go ”

Adira can only hold back tears from hearing Lily's words, she did not expect that from the beginning Zein had said that to this little girl but Lily still treated and loved Adira sincerely.

“ Because now Mama's loan contract is up so Mama has to go. Lily knew it because it was Lily sad. But Lily didn't forbid Mama from leaving. See you Mama may always be happy and do not cry because of the pain again ” Lily hugged Adira again, Adira returned the hug of the child tightly.

“ Even to the end this little girl always just makes me feel calm.what an angel sent God to calm me ” , Inner Adira.

“ See you Lily Mama pray that Lily is always happy ” said Adira softly.
