Justin was getting ready to go to sleep, when the ringing of the phone he put on the table made him wake up again.
"Who, Mas?" Nena, his wife who had been wrapped in a blanket, was also curious about who called her husband at midnight.
"liquid." Justin also looks confused when reading the name of the ignited contact. "Yes, Kai?" he then answered.
"Why, Mas?" Nena looked curious as her husband frowned. The man did not answer until their phone call was terminated.
"You go to bed first, I'll check on Sena." Justin lowered his legs and put up a slipper to stand up.
"Why then?"
"No, I want to see." Justin asked his wife to rest first.
He would quickly return after making sure his daughter was okay.
Kairan contacted him and reported that something was troubling Sena's mind. And he was worried that something might happen.
"Cause? Are you asleep?" Justin knocked on the blue-painted door, which hung the name Lasena Maura on a small flower-carved board. When he did not get an answer from inside, he opened it.
The door was unlocked, as Justin stepped in there was no daughter on the bed. The gurgling sound of water made him suspect that the child was inside.
While waiting for Sena to come out of the bathroom, Justin noticed his daughter's private room was so neat.
Not yet had time to take a photo of Ansel located on the table, the door behind his back was heard opening.
"Bapy? What's in here?" Sena came out wearing training pants and an oversize white T-shirt. Her hair is still wet.
"Sena, why are you taking a shower in the middle of a gini-rich mall. You'll be sick." Justin came closer, grabbed a towel in his daughter's hand and helped rub her youngest blond hair.
"Dirty, Pi. That's why I took a shower."
Justin stunned. Sena acted like this a few years ago. And he no longer wanted to remember that time. "Let's sit down, let papi help dry your hair."
Sena sat on a bench located in front of the dressing glass, the papi took a hairdryer on the table and helped dry her hair.
"It's over, now you're sleeping." Justin put the object in his hand on the table, guided his daughter to the bed and sat there.
Sena stood up again. "Again, Pi. I'm still gonna take a shower."
"Sena." Justin saw his daughter's figure go back to a few years ago, when the boy was wearing a blue white uniform. It made her daughter feel dirty all the time. "You're clean, honey. No need to shower anymore."
"Sena." Justin hugged his daughter dearly, feeling how cold the child's body was, I don't know how many times he cleaned himself all day. "What's wrong with you, honey? What's up." Justin let go of his embrace, staring at the pale face of Sena who looked not okay.
"I'm just gonna take a shower, Pi. Just a moment."
Justin shook his head firmly. "What's the matter, honey. Say the same papi," persuade the man again.
Sena sat herself on the edge of the bed, her face look confused. "I'm being honest with Ansel, Pi. I'm being honest," he murmured.
Justin understood. Then he sat down next to his daughter, carrying Sena's frail body into his arms. Letting the flower spill its grievances.
"Ansel must be disgusted, Pi. Ansel must be disgusted with me."
"No, sweetie."
"But he left me, Pi." Sena sniffled, crying on her father's chest. "Annsel was disappointed, with me," he added with great difficulty.
Justin rubbed his daughter's head with a pity. "If it is like that, papi promises to find another Ansel for you, who can accept you."
Sena strongly shook her head. "Now Pi. A, I don't want to...."
"Miss...." Justin closed his eyes, tightening his embrace on Sena's frail body that shook. He still could not accept such a bad event happening to his daughter.
A few years ago, Justin found his daughter screaming in fear in her own room, when the bodyguard he entrusted to look after the child was so heartbreaking that it destroyed her mind and body.
As a father who saw his daughter abused in front of his own eyes, Justin was devastated. He could not forgive the heinous act even though he had finished it off with his own hands.
A few days after the incident Justin was so hard to forgive himself, wondering something that might not have to happen. Had he not been careless, had he not forsaken his daughter. And if other useless, also can not return the girl completely.
Justin is the most devastated person after the incident, until Sena, who turns out to be much stronger than he thought, convinces himself that he is fine.
But right now his daughter really looks fragile.
Something Justin feared all his life had now happened.
Sena could not choose her own will.
