On the third day of Mila's hospital, Mother Rita came to see her. Early in the morning the middle-aged woman was already in the hospital.
After the arrival of Mother Rita, Mona was ready to go to school, and now there is only Mother Rita and Mila in the room.
Mila finished her breakfast by chewing the last mouthful in her mouth, then sipped the water on the table.
"Mommy should not bother here" said Mila while putting back the glass she used to drink earlier.
"How could Mother not visit you, you are injured like this, Mother is not out of thought with Aldo" complained Mother Rita
"Mila is well, Mother, and the doctor said today Mila can go home" Mila replied with enthusiasm. "Mother don't worry anymore" he continued.
"Alright, Mother will not worry, after all there is now someone who takes care of you" said Mother Rita with a smile full of intent.
"Si, who?" with his forehead wrinkled.
"Akbar, you think Mommy doesn't know, Mona has told Mother everything"
"What's? Mona what's the story to Mommy?"
"She told me a lot about you and Akbar"
"Mother, that's not true, we're not what you think, we..." Mila could not continue her sentence.
"Mila, whatever makes you happy, Mother will support you"
"But Mother.." again Mila hangs her sentence.
"Mother does not know very well what happened between you, but hearing now that Akbar is at your side, Mommy is sure that you have completed what happened in the past". Mila nodded.
"You know better what Akbar is like" continued Mother Rita while tidying up Mila's hair.
Mila lifted her face and hugged Mother Rita tightly.
"Thank you Mother, thank you for everything" he said. Mother Rita did not reply but rubbed Mila's back gently.
While hugging like that, a well-dressed man complete with a suit and tie hanging around his neck came into Mila's room. The man was about fifty years old, and he stoutly walked towards Mila's bed.
Mila and Mother Rita watched her every step, and they were very surprised to recognize this man. Now the man stood beside Mila with a friendly smile.
"Mila, how are you doing ?" ask the man.
"Uncle !" mila said
"Master!" Mother Rita moved from her seat.
They have great respect for this man, because he is one of the donors at the Nurul Iman Orphanage, he is the one who helps the orphanage the most at the moment, and this man is Father Aldo.
"Did my presence bother you ?" he said softly.
"No, of course not Master" replied Mother Rita.
"Uncle why is it here? Shouldn't Uncle be in Canada? "
"Yes Mila, but as soon as Aldo did to you, Uncle flew right here"
Moments Rita and Mila were silent.
"Previously, on behalf of Aldo, Uncle wanted to apologize for what he did to Mila" he said in earnest.
"It's my negligence as well, I shouldn't have left him alone in this city" he said.
"I mean Uncle ?" Mila and Mother Rita looked at each other waiting for the answer of her Father Aldo.
"Actually Aldo was suffering from borderline personality disorder" he replied with a heavy heart. "He cannot accept rejection from others, first every time he gets a rejection, he will hurt himself to the point of inflicting a wound" looks of sadness on his face. "We moved to Canada, and there we were doing treatment for him, everything looked better, and we really thought he was cured, we started to let him walk on his own, started teaching him how to run a business, he said, even letting her back and forth from Canada here, until a few days ago she called and said she was going to propose to you, we were so anxious because we weren't sure Mila would accept it, but he insisted and was very sure Mila would accept". Papa Aldo paused in his sentence. "Aldo has not been in control of the Doctor for a long time, I think that's what makes him rude and hurt you, he can not hold back his emotions, please forgive him Mila, forgive us"
Mother Rita and Mila were stunned to hear the words of Papa Aldo, they did not expect that the Aldo they knew so far was someone who suffered from a personality disorder. Mila to the point of being speechless, she just bowed listlessly to hear everything. Guilt and fear now enveloped him, he felt guilty for his attitude to Aldo, if he knew the true condition of Aldo maybe he could be more subtle when he rejected it, now he also felt afraid, if he knew the true condition of Aldo, fearing that Aldo hated her more and again tried to hurt her.
"You don't have to worry either, tonight I'm taking Aldo back to Canada, he won't be able to hurt you again, not even to see you" continued Papa Aldo as if understanding the concerns of the two people.
"I'm sure my words hurt her a lot back then" muttered Mila. "I'm sorry Mila Uncle, because Mila can't accept it, Mila made it like this" he said sadly.
"No Mila, it's not your fault, don't blame yourself like that, you have the right to make your choice" Papa Aldo replied with great wisdom.
"I'm sorry, sir, we can't do anything" Mother Rita said.
"Mother, I feel guilty for Aldo, I shouldn't have rejected him in such a way" Mila complained. "I want to see him"
"It's not your fault dear" said Mother Rita calming. "You can't see him, Aldo's emotions are not stable, he will hurt you again if he sees you" continued Mother Rita.
"Excuse me" said a nurse who entered Mila's room. "Sorry, Ibu Mila's family hopes to go to the administration soon, there are some files that must be signed so that Ms. Mila can go home soon" said the nurse.
Mother Rita nodded and followed the nurse to the administration.
Mila now lives alone in her room. He sat down to play his HP while waiting for Mother Rita back, the mind is still on Aldo who has a personality disorder. Mila was completely swept away in her mind, until she did not realize that Akbar was standing at the door looking at her.
Geck...Gts ....
Akbar knocking on the door shocked Mila to the point of almost dropping her HP.
"Accad!"
Akbar walked up to him, then sat down in the seat beside Mila.
"You surprised me" lamented Mila.
"You were too busy daydreaming until you didn't realize I was coming" Akbar replied.
"Aren't you just up to ?"
"No, I've been there a long time" Akbar replied. "How are you allowed to go home?" continued.
"Yes, I will be home soon, Mother Rita is taking care of the administration" replied Mila.
"Mother Rita is here ?"
"Yes"
"Does Mother Rita still want to meet me?" Akbar is very sure that Mother Rita really hates him, even though she was very close to Mother Rita, but after leaving Mila, she always thought that everyone beside Mila would hate her, she said, just like with Nayra who blatantly showed her dislike.
"Why not, Mommy really likes you" Mila replied lightly.
"really?"
"Hmmm... Sometimes even I think Mother likes you more than me" continued Mila with a laugh.
Akbar laughed when he heard it.
"Then what about you ?" ask Akbar.
"I? Why ?"
"Do you still like me?" with a serious face.
Degs....
Mila's heart, which had been normal, was now starting to beat very fast, Mila could not answer, she was silent and stiff at the question, plus Akbar's eyes made her even more speechless.
"Mila, do you still like me, like I am still and always like you" Akbar continued without releasing Mila from his sight.
"Mila, losing you is my biggest trauma, from now on I don't want to lose you anymore" grabbed Mila's hand "Carmila, will you come back with me ?" akbar said solemnly.
Mila gulped her saliva violently, her throat instantly dried up, she looked into Akbar's eyes, then tried to open her mouth.
"I.....
