CAMELLIAS

episode 56

Camelia's condition was very concerning, especially her body always shivering every time she remembered the events of the day, making Febian in the end take Camelia to the Hospital. Camelia had a high fever, and was shivering. 

Meanwhile, the condition of Jupiter is no less terrible. After he regains consciousness from his short sleep, after his hot romance with Cameli, he awakens alone. All that was left was a bed that was already like a broken ship, and her clothes were strewn beneath the floor. His heart grew sore as he looked, bloodstains clearly visible on the white sheets. He was pensive to look at the same thing that was still in his hands, the regret that increasingly tormented his heart made his guilt even greater. Eagerly he sought Camelia, and prostrated himself at the girl's feet, but in vain, though she wept and begged, Camelia would not eat them. 

Jupiter realizes that the shirt she is wearing does not exist, and she only finds Camelia's shirt unfit to wear. Jupiter picks up the shirt and takes it home, all the while walking out of the room which will continue to be both the fondest memory and the worst memory for her. 

Slowly he left the room, wearing only a thin white t-shirt, he did not care about his current condition, disheveled hair, staggering like a drunk, and wearing very strange clothes. He did not want to care anymore how people judge him, because he thought no one would care about him. 

Riding the car at full speed, making Jupiter like a possessed person, even he ignored some police who followed him from behind, because several times he violated traffic signs. 

The car he was driving stopped right in front of the residence of his parents, which still looks crowded because of the rapid birthday Aksa was still ongoing. Everyone was shocked to see Jupiter coming and also some police cars following him from behind.

The police immediately subdued Jupiter, pulled both arms of Jupiter and made one behind. Jupiter did not resist or dodge, he resigned even he did not utter a single word when the police handcuffed his hands. 

Mala screamed hysterically as soon as she saw her proud son arrested by the police, she immediately ran up to Jupiter, followed by Dito, and also Dea. 

"What exactly is this, why arrest my son?" Mala asked the police.

"Mother's son committed a violation of traffic signs, and tried to escape." Obviously one of the police.

"We can talk about it carefully. But off my son, I can pay any fine, but let go of my son!" 

"Mom can plead at the police station." 

"No!! Don't take my son to the police station. I pay whatever you want! Jupiter why are you quiet!!" Mala increasingly shouted hysterically, because the son he defended did not try to defend himself, he just remained silent with a blank look.

"Take me to the police station sir" Jupiter said without looking at her mother or family. He walked into a police car without being dragged. 

"Jupiter are you crazy!" Mala chases Jupiter, blocking his steps.

"Mom will soon get what you want, is it wrong if I want for a moment I feel what it's like to live in an iron cell. We're even now" said Jupiter, then he passed through the mother's body and opted into a police car. 

While Dea only watched the drama between the child and the mother from afar, she understood enough how Jupiter was doing, and Dea believed Jupiter must be going through a difficult time. 

"It's mom, Jupiter let me take care of it." Dea soon approached her mother, and chose to catch up with Jupiter. 

Meanwhile Mala returned to her home in the Ditto following her husband. While Aksa's birthday event should be stopped just like that, because today there are two events that are quite horrendous to his family. That is when Nadira suddenly fainted and immediately rushed to the hospital, then not long ago Jupiter came with a group of police who arrested him. 

Two events were enough to make Mala surprised, even he immediately contacted some of his close relatives to ask for help so that Jupiter can be quickly released. He could not imagine how the reputation of his family if until scattered information retaining Jupiter. 

Meanwhile Dea follows a police car carrying Jupiter, from behind. Not long after the group arrived, and Dea immediately went down to accompany his sister. 

Jupiter looked like an undead, he only nodded whenever the officers asked various questions. Not a single word that denies or defends himself, Jupiter justifies every accusation against him. 

Dea was anxious and upset to see Jupiter like that, after police sanctioned Jupiter in the form of detention for one week, and a fine in the form of a sum of money. Dea immediately asked the police to release his sister on parole. He wants to pay whatever it takes for the police to release Jupiter. 

After negotiations that did not last long, as Dea offered a sizable sum of money, the police finally released Jupiter without any charges. 

Jupiter can only smile mirically, how greedy a person is just for money. Even the enforcers of justice are brought to their knees just because of money. He was increasingly aware that if people in this part of the world were not really fair, they were even more concerned with money and power than their tolerance of their fellow human beings, just like their mother, which only makes it a robot to make money and make it like an inanimate object, which can be arranged as he pleases. 

On the way home, no one spoke. Dea and Jupiter were both immersed in his thoughts. Even when Dea's car entered the yard, Jupiter went down and did not say a word. He immediately went into the room and shut himself up. 

Dea could only sigh weakly, he was very concerned at the condition of his sister. 

"What's really going on? Why can the child be detained by the police, is he not ashamed if until this news is spread, want to put where the face of the mother!" Mala asked, as soon as she saw Dea who was still watching the missing Jupiter behind the door.

"It's mom, I don't see how Jupiter is. She's not in good shape, don't you feel sorry for her?" 

"Almost she embarrasses the family, tell her to clean up immediately and go to the hospital to visit Nadira." 

Dea is not inexhaustible with her own mother, how a mother does not care about the state of her child and is more concerned with the condition of others and the opinions of others. Dea was very concerned about the condition of Jupiter. Though hesitant, he approached Jupiter's room. Slowly he opened the doorknob, and it was fortunate that Jupiter did not lock the door to his room. 

With careful steps, Dea walked closer to Jupiter. But his eyes widened as he saw the fragments of kara that had been scattered on the floor, he even saw Jupiter was holding a chunk of glass and grasping it very tightly. Make the palm of Jupiter bleed fresh blood flowing profusely. 

"Jupiter!!" Dea immediately approached Jupiter and immediately pulled on Jupiter's arm.

"You're crazy!! Take off that glass!" Dea pulls the broken glass in Jupiter's hand, though Jupiter doesn't want it to be taken. Pulling is unavoidable, so the broken glass accidentally hits Dea's hand.

"Akhhh" Dea cried out in pain, as the sharp object scratched his hand, and,

Jupiter stopped when she saw Dea holding her hand that was already spitting out fresh blood. 

"I hurt you?" Jupiter throws shards of glass, making a loud enough noise. 

"I can only hurt her, you know? He's just like you brother, he's hurt and I did it!" 

"Quiet down! You need to calm down, we can finish this all right." 

"No!! I've hurt him and made him leave me, "clear liquid escaped from Jupiter's eyes, making Dea even less willing to look at him.

"I'll help you, I'll help you. But please don't be like this." 

"No, no, no one can help me. Even if I beg and beg, she'll still go." Jupiter grabbed her hair, frustrated. Made Dea immediately grab his sister's body and hug her very tightly. 

"Don't hurt yourself, I beg you." Dea could not hold back her tears, she cried while hugging Jupiter's body,

"You can share all your sorrows with me, don't be like this" Dea said.

"I destroyed everything, he's gone…" 

"He must be back, trust me." Dea tried to convince, though he was not sure. 

"Hit me." Pinta Jupiter as soon as Dea takes off her embrace.

"Hit me, I beg you," Jupiter again pleaded.

Plaque,,, 

One slap floated on Jupiter's cheek, a slap so hard.

"I took it by force…" 

Plaque,,, 

The second slap, again landed on his face.

"He was crying, and, and,,,"

Plaque,,, 

The third slap back he felt, even before he finished his speech.

"You deserve it" Dea said, holding back the pain felt in her palm, not knowing how the pain of her slap was, but Dea was sure it must have been very painful, because his hands also felt so painful and sore. 

But Dea still cannot justify the actions of Jupiter who has raped a woman, whatever the reason Jupiter remains guilty. 

Once things improved, Dea treated a sizable wound on Jupiter's hand. Although he was disappointed by the actions of his sister, he still could not ignore Jupiter just like that. Dea accidentally put a sedative on a drink he gave Jupiter. Dea believes Jupiter must have re-created the mess or re-harmed him if not immediately given a sedative. After tidying up the broken glass scattered in Jupiter's room, assisted by several household assistants, Jupiter was asleep. 

Meanwhile, Camelia regained consciousness after almost a day of unconsciousness. He woke up Febian was already beside him. A warm smile immediately greeted him when he first opened his eyes. 

"Wake up princess. Why do you sleep so long. Do you want to be a sleeping princess, or do you want to make me die fast?" Febian temptations while helping Camelia sit down. 

"How long am I sleeping?" Ask Camelia. His head still felt dizzy, and was twitching.

"Want a drink?" Fresh Febian while thrusting a glass filled with water. Camelia's throat felt so dry that she immediately received Febian's water.

"Is it better?" Febian asked again, holding Camelia's forehead which was no longer feverish. 

Camelia nodded, she felt better. Although still feeling pain in other parts of the body. 

"Mel,, "Febian tried to start the conversation*** he knew, it could make Camelia come back to her mind and even she could go back to screaming hysterically, like that night, she said, where he took Camelia to the hospital.

"I'm fine Feb. Don't worry about me, once I'm cured, I'll go back to Singapore, and stay there with my mom." 

"But Mel, I have to find out who did that to you." 

"I'm doing fine. I already know who did it anyway, and I don't want to bother with it anymore." 

"No!! I don't accept. I must repay all his deeds!" Febian seemed so upset and emotional.

Camelia did not tell Febian if the man who raped her was Jupiter. No, Camelia wasn't raped because Camelia didn't feel any coercion even though Jupiter was robbing her the wrong way. Camelia did not regret it in the slightest, so she did not tell the incident in detail. 

"I want to start everything from the beginning. You want to stay with me, even if I'm like this?" Camelia's eyes hurt Febian's heart, though in front of Camelia she would obey Camelia's will not to take revenge, but deep in his little heart he will still repay all the deeds of people who have made his Camera suffer. 

"We're going to start all over again." Reply Febian while rubbing Camelia's cheek that still looks bruised.

"Then Jupiter?" Ask Febian, 

Hearing the name of Jupiter makes Camelia's body crumble, 

"I do love him, but I don't want him to suffer by marrying a disabled woman like me. Maybe I'm not being fair to you, because I'm asking you to stay with me, when I'm broken like this. But,,"

"I'll accept whatever your condition is Mel. All that is in you, without exception." Reply Febian. 

Camelia knew that Febian had loved her for a long time. Febian may not realize that every time he comes to Camelia's room and whispers a word of love every night, before Febian goes to sleep or when Febian is just coming home from work. Febian must have thought Camelia was asleep and didn't know it, but Febian was off guard because Camelia always knew whenever Febian approached her room. 

 

Camelia tried to act ordinary, so that Febian would not feel awkward whenever she was around him. After all Camelia did not have any more feelings for Febian. He only regarded Febian as a friend or sister to him, nothing more. But after this incident, Camelia decides to try to start a new life, with Febian and begins to forget about Jupiter. Camelia believes, although she loves Jupiter but they are not destined to be together, in view of the problems that always come up, Camelia feels very tired and gives up. He decided to end his relationship with Jupiter.

"Mel, Nadira is also treated here." Febian said as he peeled the orange and gave it to Camelia.

"I want to visit him. Before we go home, I want to see him." Camelia knew the mastermind behind this disaster was Nadia, Nadira's older sister. But Camelia could not blame Nadira just like that just because they were brothers. Camelia wanted to see Nadira before she actually left Jakarta and never came back. 

"Take the fruit, after that you are ushered nurse to meet him, I have a little business. I'll be back." 

Camelia nodded and immediately finished off the fruit that Febian peeled. 

Assisted by a nurse in a wheelchair, Camelia went to a room located one floor above her room. The room is certainly much more luxurious than the room where it is treated. Slowly the door was opened by the nurse, and the figure of Nadira was sitting on the bench of her nursery. He looked pale, even his face looked so white as a corpse. 

"Kara?" Nadira is surprised to see Camelia coming towards him,

"You can come out, I'll call you when I'm done." Pinta Camelia, the nurse, leaves Camelia and Nadira. 

"Are you okay?" Nadira asked, while trying to get down and approached Camelia who was still sitting in a wheelchair. 

"I'm good. Even better than yesterday." 

Nadira is not sure what Camelia said, he gets closer to Camelia and rests near Camelia's feet. 

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry." Nadira said while kneeling in front of Camelia.

"I didn't come here to see you like this, but I want you to hear how my life has been." 

Slowly Camelia began to tell stories from the beginning of her life to the present, Camelia may not realize the presence of others who also listen to the story, but Nadira was already aware of the presence of the two people, and he deliberately did not tell Camelia so that the two people to hear the story of Camelia's life. 

It turns out that all the bad things that have happened to Camelia so far, all come from Dea's actions, which continue to have a bad impact on Camelia's life. 

Sometimes things that we often think of as trivial actually have a fatal impact on others, as experienced by Camelia.
