"Let me be the father, continued Baron," he said, looking at the woman's eyes. He could see clearly, that Arita seemed surprised because of the words he said just now.
No words came out of Arita's lips. His body was stiff for a while, with both of his eyes implying disbelief at Gibran's remarks. He never imagined all this would happen.
"Arita, did you hear what I said?" call the man to make sure that the woman is in good shape.
Did not find any response from the woman, making her then get closer to the bed. Although Arita already looks more fit, but he still feels worried if the woman remains silent and does not open her voice.
"What happened to you, Ar?" gibran asked with a hand trying to touch the woman's forehead, trying to check if something happened to her.
However, Arita immediately brushed off the big palm, so as not to touch his head. Even then, Gibran thinned his lips by pulling back his hand. His essence was fixed on Arita, who continued to stare blankly at the front.
"What did you say, Gib?" arita asked in a low voice. The 1-year-old woman from Gibran even then, turned her eyes hesitantly trying to look at the two men's neutrals.
"I'll be a side dad to the Baron" he said firmly as if he was very sure of it. Gibran sat his body on the side of the bed, so that he could look at the beautiful face of the woman more closely.
"Not all things can be made of jokes," said Arita by upholding her back. He looked at Gibran with his eyebrows almost fused together. The woman was completely inexhaustible by the superficial decisions taken by Gibran.
"I'm not kidding, and I'm serious. If you don't believe me, I'll prove it in a month's time" he broke up. Gibran wanted to prove his seriousness, to Arita and his older brother.
"Don't think shallow, Gib. All the decisions you're gonna make are risky, '" he said, not wanting to make Gibran regret it in the future. However, the man remained tight-lipped and stared intently at Arita's eyes.
"Maybe before, every time I make a decision I have to think long. But I guess, for the decision this time, I don't need to think much anymore" he replied with such confidence.
"Why should I?" ask Arita briefly.
"Because from the beginning I knew that you were different from other women. I just follow my instincts and feelings" said the man who made Arita massage his temples. Somehow his mind was distracted by Gibran's confession.
"And so far ...my instinct has never been wrong" he added, staring at Arita.
"I'm sure, if it's just your curiosity, Gib. For the rest, once you know my life, you will forget your feelings" Arita refuted in doubt of all these things.
After all, the meeting of the two was arguably still very short. And again, Arita is also not thinking about the couple who will accompany her life again. So, that is what makes Arita constantly reject Gibran's confession.
"Aren't we just getting to know?" arita.
"I don't care about that, Ar. All about you I like, and so does the Baron. Time can't be a benchmark for feelings and seriousness, can it?" clearly with firmness.
"There are still many girls out there, while ak–"
"I don't care, even if you're a single mother. Instead I will complete the father figure needed by the Baron, and the husband figure for you," his determination that makes Arita teary.
"Relax, I will not remove Bayu from your side of life. After all, he is a person who means something to you and the Baron. But allow me to replace her role in your little family,"
