Dear, My Baby [Congratulations]

08| Overprotective [Extra Chap]

In the morning, after hearing the explanation from the Park family. Without spending any more time. Raka and Naura travel to the land of the rising sun, Japan. According to the dektective hired by Raka in Jakarta. Denny and Theresia have been living in Japan for over fifteen years. Since Theresa got out of jail.

Osaka City, in a remote village and away from the center of the crowd. It is very smart to choose a hiding place. Really fox. It was only fitting that the existence of Theresia was untraceable. Raka sneered when she saw the address sent by the private detective last night via his email.

Raka glanced to the side. Naura fell asleep while hugging her arm. It still takes another hour to get to the intended address. Then his gaze turned to the other pair of humans, sitting on the very back bench. Maura and Lucas. The girl fell asleep with her head propped up on Lucas' shoulder. Lucas wrapped one of his hands around Maura's waist. Hugging it possessively.

From all night this sweet girl continued to cry after hearing Raka's explanation. That Theresia, who had just been discovered was Naura's biological sister who had exchanged Maura and Miura. Actually reluctant Raka explained who Theresia was to her three children. Moreover, Theresa herself did not admit to having a sister like Naura. But as Lucas continues to be urged, who also wants to find traces of Maura's biological parents, he tells them everything.

How not this sweet girl cried all night. It's possible that Theresia was her real mother. In other words, he still had a blood relationship with Lucas. That means they can't get in love. Same with Lucas. It was just as bad. It felt like the happiness he had just achieved seemed to be pulled forcibly from his grasp. Really painful.

Lucas was pensive as he looked out the window and looked forward when he felt Raka watching him. At all he did not dodge and release his embrace from Maura's body. And it seems like Raka also did not give any comment.

When the Raka group arrived at the destination, it was still morning and the air was still very fresh. People use bicycles as a means of transportation. Many tall trees loomed on his right left side. Residential homes are rare.

Theresia house is very simple and surrounded by trees. Raka knocked on the door rather harshly. I can't wait to meet and see the reaction of the residents of this house. The reaction of Theresia. After a few seconds, the sound of the door being opened, then the aging face of Denny appeared who was surprised to see the face of Raka. Actually Raka expects the one that appears in front of her is Theresia, not Denny.

“Raka?” Denny could barely believe who was standing in front of him.

“It turns out to still know me,” Raka Sharp quipped.

“Of course ..” shrewd Denny, then his gaze shifted to look at Naura's face. His gaze cheered when he looked at Naura's sweet face, making him feel bitter about losing his beloved figure. Then it turned to look at Lucas's face and finally Maura's face. Seeing Maura Denny's expression grew increasingly foggy.

“Amanda?”

All were shocked when Denny suddenly hugged Maura. Lucas forcefully pulls Maura from Denny's embrace, fearing that something might happen to her. The cute girl immediately hid behind Naura. Lucas glared at Denny and became Maura's shield, just in case the old man did anything unwanted. While Raka grinned satisfied to see the attitude of Lucas, always reliable.

Denny smiled bitterly looking at the reaction of the handsome young man in front of him. “Not to worry. I won't hurt her,” she said staring at Maura with a frightened face looking at her. Exhales. From his expression it was obvious this old man missed this sweet girl very much.

“Where is Theresia?” Raka immediately asked the person she was looking for. Theresa did not see the trunk of her nose. Denny's jaw hardened hearing him.

Instead of answering Raka's question, Denny turned around and opened the door wide. “Please enter first,” he said calmly after usual mastering his feelings.

After everyone sat down in the living room, Denny spoke again, “Have you never heard from Theresia all this time?” tanyanya together asissten household finished serving drinks and turned away.

“No. We stayed in Seatle. And do not want to find out the news Theresia,” press Raka cold. If not a nun who unlocked this great secret, as well as the shocking confessions of the Park family, maybe until this moment he and Naura would not have been willing to meet Theresia.

“Oh, I understand.” Denny breathed deeply. It was clear from the look of his aging face that he felt a deep wound and a burden that he still had to bear at his old age.

“So, where is Theresia?” reload Raka while squinting at Denny. Don't tell me, Theresia ran away again after knowing they'd be here.

Denny looked at Raka's face. Without answering, the old man stood up. “Follow me,” he said briefly.

Raka raised one of her eyebrows. He looked at his wife and two children and nodded. He moved from his seat followed by the others. With a few questions in mind, they followed Denny's square steps up the stairs to the very end of the room. Denny opened the door wide and showed a beautiful view inside.

“Kak Tere.” Naura shut her mouth tightly, her body trembling as she looked at the frail figure in front of her.

Theresia sat in the corner. Body skinny. Hair's frowning. Theresa tightly held the baby doll in her hands while giggling without caring about the surroundings. His condition was clearly much different that Naura had seen a few years ago.

“Yes, Theresia is crazy,” said Denny making it clear the four people beside him. Naura was no longer able to endure the pain in her heart. She cried. Very concerned to see his brother. And so is Maura. The girl's eyes are glazed. He was sad to see the state of Theresa who might have been his real mother.

　

　

　

　

　

　

　

　

　

“Why can Brother Tere be like that?” naura asked as they returned to the living room.

“Seventeen years ago, Theresa was kidnapped by a herd of criminals in Yokohama. She was held captive for a month and raped. Maybe that's why he went crazy. Unable to withstand inner and physical torment,” explained Denny.

Naura gasps. It was unexpected that her brother's life became so miserable like that. Then his eyes fell on Maura. Is it possible that Maura was the child of a rape victim who happened to Theresia? Yeah, God.

Just like Naura felt. Maura is like that too. He just bowed holding a clear circle in his eye pelupuk. He couldn't imagine it. Not caring about the surroundings, Lucas ventured to hold Maura's hand tightly. Maura needs power now. Even Lucas didn't care about Denny staring at Maura. It was a great pleasure to meet a baby she had not seen again in seventeen years. Extremely grateful, the baby girl - who has now transformed into a sweet girl - was nurtured by Naura and Raka.

“If only Theresia wasn't crazy. We can ask the reason why he could exchange our biological children with his biological daughter,” regretted Raka after being able to control his surprise.

“Change your child with his biological daughter?” Denny's forehead frowned.

“Isn't Maura Theresia's biological child?” ask Raka wonder.

“You're wrong. Theresa never married and never had children, although she was raped and held captive. She never got pregnant and gave birth,” explained Denny to make all who heard her breathe a sigh of relief. Especially Lucas and Maura. Very happy to hear that.

“Not his biological son? Then who's Maura to Theresia?” Raka stared fixedly at my eyes Denny, asking for an explanation.

“Maura's real name is Amanda Thalia. Seventeen years ago .. After getting out of prison, I took Theresia on vacation to New York City. I was so happy when Theresa brought a baby girl home. I hope that with Amanda's baby coming, Theresa has completely forgotten about you two. And then I found out why she adopted the baby after you guys came here. To find out who the adopted baby is,” explained Denny.

Yep. Just to exchange Naura's child, Theresa dared to adopt a baby. Holy hooch! Until whenever Theresia would never be happy to see Naura and Raka happy. And because revenge had been imprisoned, Theresia was finally determined to do so. A week later. Unbeknownst to her, Theresia takes away Maura's baby who has been swapped for Miura's baby by her out of nowhere. Two days later, she came home without a baby. When asked by Denny, Theresa said she had given the baby to a married couple who had lost their baby and were in more need.

Denny deeply regrets Theresia's never-stable decision. She said she wanted to adopt a baby, but then just gave the baby to someone else. Though disappointed by Theresa's decision, Denny makes no attempt to take back the baby. He thought it was better for the baby to be taken care of by others rather than Theresia. When he saw the attitude of Theresa who was never stable, he was afraid that the baby would be the target of the release of anger Theresia alone.

After the incident, Denny took Theresia to Japan. And settled in the village to heal the soul of Theresia. After settling in Japan, Theresa never acted again. It really has changed. Up to a month later, while on a road trip in the city of Yokohama, Theresia was kidnapped and held captive. Even more tragically, he experienced sexual abuse during his captivity. After being rescued from captivity, Theresia's soul has been completely disturbed. He went mad with regret left in his mind, swapping innocent babies. That was why Theresia was holding a baby doll without ever letting go.

“And where are my biological parents?” asked Maura curiously.

“Your biological parents have died. On the way home from the hospital, you and your parents had an accident and you were the only survivor of the accident. Until finally Theresia adopted you,” explained Denny. Although the reason Theresia adopted him made Denny regret it. But at least, he was happy that the nurturing of Maura was Naura and Raka.

“A-are my biological parents left for me?” please Maura with a vibrating voice.

“There. Wait a minute.” Denny stands. Rushed to his room. A few minutes later he returned to the room with a small old box in his hand.

“For you.” Denny thrust a small box at Maura.

Maura opened the contents. There are some photos. The woman in the photo is very similar to him. Also some photos when Maura was one to a week old, before she took care of Naura. And a birth certificate. It is clearly written there, the complete data of Maura with her real name Amanda Thalia as well as the data of her biological parents.

Maura's tears were unstoppable no longer. He was crying sobbing. Hard to imagine, all this time he was an orphan. Had Theresa not adopted and traded him, she might have ended up in an orphanage and never known Lucas.
