Dusk And Suffering

Dusk And Suffering
62. Meet



"Dad, it seems that the advice that I love has a point as well. I need to know that Leo actually has a good side. No matter how he is, how wicked he is, Leo is an ordinary man, Dad. He's got a good side even if it's just a fingernail."


"We don't know what's on people's minds. Later he pretended to be good but it turned out that it was just his manipulation."


"Not everyone is like you, yeah. Don't have bad prejudices. After all, Dusk only met, not married, why are you so worried? You forgot Dusk ever went to Leo's house?"


"As much as you. It's hard if it's women's business. Moreover, Dad has no friends. Yes, it is up to you. But you have to take care of yourself, if there's anything call Dad. Leo's still in the hospital where I operated if you want to see me now. I'll go first, there's work."


After the departure of the father, Dusk also did the same thing, preparing to go to the hospital right then and there. Faster, better, so thought the twenty-two-year-old woman.


By wearing a pink dress patterned with small flowers, long hair he stalls and a small clasp he attached to the right side of his hair makes Dusk like a girl who is still sitting in college. The one who sees the woman will not believe that she already has two children.


Dusk felt beautiful after being taken care of by her father. Especially after he has children and his life is all about making the woman more relaxed and able to enjoy her life.


With a high degree of confidence, he walked up to the reception desk and asked Leo where the room was. Of course it is easy to get, the steps back swayed deeper into the all-white building. He turned his head to his right hand and left until his steps stopped in a room that read 'Dahlia 11'.


"Kok deg-deg an, yeah. Where I forgot not to think of a reason why I found her room. How is dong?"


While Senda was busy with her thoughts, suddenly the door swung inward. Dusk turned to the door for a moment.


He is the same, Leo. Who, the hell is he?


Dusk and Fais looked at each other for a few seconds in silence.


"Miss Twilight, right?" fais asked with a guessing expression.


"Ah, do you know?"


"I'm Mr. Leo's personal assistant. Maybe Miss never saw me, but I see Miss often."


"Oh so, yeah. So is this Leo's nursery?"


"Yes, Non. Mr. Leo just had an eye operation. Wanna see?"


"May you not disturb."


Fais removed his body from the middle of the door letting Dusk into the room containing only a bed and a long sofa.


"Sir, there's a guest."


"Guests? Who?" Leo's face was confused.


Dusk grabbed Fais by the shoulder and gave him a code to remain silent and ask for time alone.


With pleasure, of course, the man was willing to obey the wishes of Dusk. Fais is one of those people who also enjoys the kindness of Leo. Of course a little bit he knows Leo and his personality. He will be happy if he sees his boss is also happy.


Fais knew, during his stay with Dusk Leo changed a lot, he felt the change.


"Hi," said Dusk. I don't know why it was the only word that came out of his mouth.


Leo calmed his head as if he had thought like he had heard his voice, but time, yes he was. It was just the thoughts and guesses of Dusk alone, as he could only see his face without looking at his eyes.


"Kok diem? Forget it, same with me."


"Forges?"


"Still remember it turned out. How are you?"


"You're Twilight?" ask Leo to shine.


"Yes. How can this be? What the hell is going on?" He had to ask the real thing the answer he already knew. He was confused what to say to the man.


Leo looked down as if he was hiding his tears. He is confused about telling a story or not, if he speaks honestly he is afraid and Dusk will pity him. He hated it, all his life, never being pitied by anyone else.


"Where do you know I'm here?" Leo immediately launched a question when his head flashed a question that could shift the topic.


"I actually met you six months ago. I think I saw it wrong, because you said you wanted to go abroad and you acted like you didn't know me.  You didn't fuck me so, yeah I thought that I saw it wrong. A few days ago, we saw each other again. In this hospital too. No way dong, I saw it wrong twice. I finally found out your ward."


"We'll meet here? You're in good health, aren't you?" Leo's attention was still the same when she was pregnant one year ago.


"Yes, thank God I am healthy. The sick mother. But Mom is now cured, she finished surgery a few days ago. Sick kidney failure." Want to ask about Rida, but Dusk did not have the interest in Leo's current condition. The body is getting thinner, surely he has a lot of burden on the mind. If he asked Rida it would make her even sadder. But on the one hand wouldn't it be strange if he didn't ask his wife?


"It's good that you're healthy."


My God, I just asked you yesterday not to meet with Dusk. But why exactly did you bring him here.


"How are our kids?" Finally Dusk finds a question that leads to Rida. Hopefully not to turn Leo into sad, please Dusk.


"Kids?" Leo changed his facial expression. "I'm sorry Twilight, because I was blind, Rida decided to leave me. He took our children with him. I'm sorry, I broke my promise." There is no face manipulating from Leo's face. He seemed really sorry and guilty.


Precisely now a little regret wrong twilight. He felt bad for deceiving Leo. While the current Leo was very honest with him, the man already appreciated him greatly.


To be honest, Dusk was confused how to behave. On the one hand he wants to be honest that his children are with him, but he is also afraid that Leo will take the children out of his life.


"Where does Rida go now?"


"I don't know yet. When I'm healed, I'll find out. Maybe he's still in our house outside. You see, my men said he didn't find Rida here."


"Why don't you stop him from leaving? You have done anything for yourself."


Leo smiled a little. "Make what? Want me to defend as well as he will stick to his stance. He left me because I was blind. He thinks I can't take care of him. So, yeah. I don't want to let him go. I don't want to hurt my pride by begging him to stay, do I?"


"Have you ever done that? It's not like you ever told me that you ever begged Rida to stay with him after Rida was convicted of not being able to get pregnant because her uterus was removed."


"That's different, his position at that time was Rida who had shortcomings. I accepted his shortcomings and now it is his position reversed. I have flaws and he can't accept that."


"That love you're the same as him?"


"Many people don't know, if I've been in love with people my love is excessive. Most people know that I am evil, cruel, have no feelings, have no heart. You used to think so, right?"


Dusk is only mangosteen, it does justify Leo's speech. But lately he realized, that the man must have a sincere good side of the heart. Because Dusk itself also felt the goodness when there was still one roof.
