Arsen was back in the hospital with his father's family, not expressing the anger of the mother who had given birth to him, for him they are currently in need of togetherness in the face of the trials that hit their family.
Arsen opened the door of the room and found her father sitting pensively beside Erina's lying body. On the sofa faithfully Sarah sat waiting for her mother with her eyes moist and in a face that painted tired.
“Ar you're here?” greeting Vishnu upon seeing his son enter, there was a proud feeling of seeing his son who had always been cold to his new family had turned into a concern.
“How is it?” tanya Arsen stood beside her papa staring at the pale face of Erina who was asleep.
“He fell asleep, the doctor gave him an injection.”
Arsen and Vishnu come out after saying goodbye to Sarah to take care of Erina. Vishnu and Arsen sat on a long bench enjoying a soft canned drink talking casually between fellow men.
“Thank you Ar, want to understand this situation,” said Vishnu was relieved because the burden was divided with Arsen who understood the situation.
“Your mother would disagree, if you always come here,” explained Vishnu who knows the relationship between Erina and Vienna.
Arsen took a heavy breath looking away then again downed his drink. “He was mad at me, last night I had a fight with him.” Arsen.
“Do not like that, however she is your mama, she loves you very much,” advice Vishnu do not want if Arsen makes his mother angry.
Vishnu sighed his past love relationship hurt the feelings of many people. “Pardon papa, our mistake made you hurt, I love him so much Ar,” said Vishnu speaking from heart with his son.
“Ar understand pa, we can not force our feelings,” clearly Arsen understands her papa's feelings just as he can't erase Sarah from his mind so well that he feels his papa can't forget Erina.
Vishnu pulled the corner of his lips staring at his son's face deeply, feeling moved now that Arsen had understood him. His son has grown into a man he can count on.
“Kelak Ar when you fall in love, choose the woman you want do not marry the woman you do not love,” message Vishnu patted his son's shoulder.
Arsen smiled meaningfully. “What can papa promise me? Whichever girl I choose will be my wife, papa should support me and marry me to her,” pinta Arsen looked at the man beside her with a pleading gaze.
“You have a girl you like?” ask Vishnu with a probing gaze. Curious if Arsen does have a woman he likes because his son was so closed and cold to women.
Arsen threw away his gaze not wanting his papa to read the radiant look on his face talking about women's problems.
“Ar already have, but ...”Arsen hung his words looking hesitantly revealing it.
“But what Ar?” sambar Vishnu's.
Arsen bowed listlessly. “We are so different as earth and sky. And maybe everyone would sneer at him if we were together. Papa knows the woman with Ar, her life will be in the spotlight. Not to mention mama certainly did not approve of it,” obviously Arsen bowed to express his love that will be full of struggle. He tried to find support from his father.
“But papa has to promise, whoever Ar chooses later, papa will bless me and marry me to him, even if everyone disagrees, I mean mama and no one supports me. Papa should keep marrying me to him. Promise yes Pa?” arsen urged on his papa.
Vishnu smiled at the plea of his new son this time Arsen revealed his heart.
“Remember papa's promise, a man will not break his promise,” said Arsen breathed a sigh of relief after getting support from his papa.
Vishnu had made a promise to Arsen that he had to keep, a promise that he did not understand if he would approve later if his son liked his stepson.

Erina and Vishnu were in the treatment room enjoying togetherness, after hearing a doctor's diagnosis who said that Erina's condition was declining fear and despair haunted Vishnu's feelings.
“Sadly time feels quickly passed only three years we live together, you have to be strong.” Vishnu's voice trembled, while kissing his wife's hand fondly something was stuck in his heart and was about to explode.
Erina smiled at her husband. “Who told you to leave me married to another, now it is my turn to leave you,” joked Erina with tears that escaped the tail of her eyes, her index finger poking her husband's nose.
“I'm sorry, I'm sorry I left you.” Vishnu was bowed with a feeling of guilt.
“You can catch up with me again, later there.” Erina raised her index finger upwards. “That too if you are not enamored with the beauty of angel.” Erina chuckled softly back in a jest to her husband.
“Not going. I just want my wife,” reply Vishnu tease Erina with spoiled then shower with a kiss-tubi on Erina's pale face.
“Already amused,” protest Erina. The two laughed along with tears of sadness that trickled down. This warmth may not be long before they feel that Erina is gone forever.
Erina looked at her husband's bead. “Mas if I no longer exist ...” Erina's voice choked back to talk about something bad that was going to happen to her. “Mas please take care of my daughter Sarah,” pinta Erina expectantly clasping her husband's hand tightly.
Vishnu kissed the back of Erina's hand. “Definitely. She's my daughter too and right now Arsen has accepted her as a brother, so I'll give her the same affection and be fair to them,” promises Vishnu who used to ignore Sarah for fear of Arsen disappointed and no longer want to stay with her.
“Mas I have one request for the last time to you ...” Erina's voice is getting weaker.
“Don't say like that, you will definitely be cured,” cut Vishnu. “Tell me what's your request? Whatever it is I will certainly grant,” Vishnu promise.
Erina was silent for a moment then revealed her wish and part of her plan.
“In the next few years Bi Odah's son named Bian will come with good intentions to propose Sarah. I want you to marry my daughter to her. Please this is my last request. Marry Sarah to Bi Odah's son,” pinta Erina with great hope, the plan will run smoothly if Vishnu also supports the relationship between Sarah and Bian.
“Sarah loves him very much and he is a good young man, I want my daughter to live with him,” Erina added.
Vishnu smilingly stroked Erina's cheek gently. “Alright darling. I'll marry them happily, I promise you. Even if you want me to marry them now I will.” Vishnu was serious about his words if it was Erina's wish easily he would marry Sarah and Bian even now.
“Don't wait for him now. She must have come for Sarah.”
“You need not worry I will marry our daughter to the young man she loves.”
“Thank you mas. I entrust Sarah's future to you.”
Again Vishnu made a promise, this time to Erina the woman he loved. Later that promise will be a boomerang for him. He will be worried about keeping promises to whom. His promise to Arsen is to marry him off to the girl he likes or Erina's last wish promise to him, who asks for Sarah's marriage to the young man he likes. On whom will he fulfill his promise to marry Sarah. Who would he choose Bian or? The future Arsen of this girl is in Vishnu's hands.
