Mama is shocked at Arya's sudden visit.
"Why aren't you here waiting for Marissa?"
"So while we were on the phone, Arya heard a noise. For fear that Arya will come here immediately,"
Arya turned to the ward that Bu Aga was sleeping in. Bu Aga's face looked tired and pale.
Mama took a long breath and told Arya what happened.
"So he was hysterical when he knew Marissa's condition. Ngamuk also asked to see Marissa, because it could not be controlled forced sedative doctors finally he fell asleep, as you see now," explained Mama.
Arya was sad when she heard it but she was quite understanding.
While telling the story, a doctor came to see them to tell them that the condition of Bu Aga is currently unstable and suggested to stay hospitalized only. Previously, Bu Aga only experienced fainting and ordinary shock then after recovering it can immediately release the infusion but now the condition is different, after all, Bu Aga had made a commotion so that it made people uncomfortable around him, he said, because it is quite disturbing other patients who are also sick so it would be nice if Bu Aga has his own room for now.
Arya agreed and processed the transfer of the room immediately.
Next Aunt and a nurse took Ms. Aga to her room. Meanwhile, Mama and Arya go to the operating waiting room to see the progress of Marissa's condition.
Instead of seeing Marissa's condition they get unexpected news. His father Arya who saw his son and wife from a distance immediately approached them with body gestures running fast. Because it is considered unusual for Mama and Arya to be worried about something happening to Marissa, then they also speed up the steps to meet Papa to be at one point. But Papa's approaching face did not display the worry they were afraid of. On the contrary, Papa's face looked bright.
"Marya Ma.."
"Why Pa?" ask Mama to panic.
"Marissa has made it through her critical period. The doctor said, if the situation is getting better maybe soon they can move Marissa to the treatment room," explained Papa happy. From a distance it appears that Mr. Aga is bowing his head on the chair while clenching both hands in front of his face. Aga also looks very grateful.
Mama closed her mouth almost screaming in pleasure. Tears fell so hard on Mama. Arya was also similarly relieved now. His worries were now crumbling, like there was ice melting in his heart invigorating the crowded atmosphere.
Arya has a very bad luck with Marissa's nature which is barbaric. But in the eyes of Arya at this time, Marissa is still an ordinary woman who can feel pain and hurt. Honestly, Arya could not bear to see the fierce and chatty Marissa so weak and helpless like this. Seeing it this makes Arya so reminded again of Raya who had experienced something similar, went to the hospital because the same thing was the loss of her child.
No matter what kind of coincidence this is, it feels like those who each have taken men belonging to others are not approved to get offspring. And even they had to feel such a cruel loss, as if the retaliation of their actions that had made another woman lose her partner had now paid off. Is this karma? Or is it just a coincidence? I don't know, only God knows.
Mama was so grateful that she stroked her chest and still shed tears. Pak Aga who realized the presence of Mama and Arya now came to them to ask about the condition of Bu Aga.
Hearing how his wife arrived like that made the face of Mr. Aga who had just shrunk back. Mr. Aga decided to leave Marissa for a while to check on Ms. Aga's situation and would tell her about their daughter's current condition.
After Mr. Aga went to see his wife, the three people who had been with him were now waiting for Marissa with complete calm. It felt like the difficult times had been passed by Marissa, the woman seemed to show a strong will to live. Although he had lost a lot of blood and had 6 stitches wound on his head. Not to mention with a caesarean section wound due to her miscarriage.
In this silence suddenly a thought flashed through Arya's mind.
"Pa, is it true that the cause of all this is Tio? So what's his fate now? Is he going to jail?" arya asked recalling the chronology that the security guard had conveyed to them. Even to ascertain the truth, Mr. Aga to tell one of his men to check who exactly the perpetrator is and after being investigated at the police station they finally really believe that it is Tio. A cowardly man who abandoned Marissa and her baby and is now trying to kill both.
"The guy is Tio. But Papa still does not know how it goes, just that Mr. Aga had said that he did not want to release Tio just like that to be handled by the police. Mr. Aga wants the man to be as severe as he is, but not by state punishment. But I don't know what kind of punishment he means, Papa doesn't know either" Papa explained what he knew.
"Iiih, I swear yes Mama did not think deh, very much he was to Marissa even though the one being conceived by Rissa was her own child! How the hell did he even do to his son and mother?! There's no responsibility to be a person!"
"If the man had a responsibility, it's not possible that Ma he lied to Marissa until she could get pregnant like that. If it wasn't for that jerk guy, it wouldn't have been Marissa to our reckless self for her benefit, just for the sake of making someone else a companion who could take responsibility for her pregnancy, even though he reciprocates the benefits for us," Arya replied without further ado but actually expressed the reality. From his tone of speech it seemed like Arya was still upset with her current position.
"Alright, Ma. Marissa is in trouble. We can't gossip it like this," Papa's wounds feel bad about the situation. Their conversation seemed to be thrown at the wrong time.
"You're Arya too, don't talk about it anymore. We go through all this because we have agreed before, after all if in thought again it turns out there are so many wisdom that we can take from your marriage, even though it is only a fake marriage, but a lot of things we don't know can end up being revealed just like that. Even without the need for us to be nosy, the truth that sets can be lifted before the eyes of all of us" said Papa again did not deny if indeed many things happened after they did a contract marriage.
Although in fact, Papa can not lie to himself if there is a feeling of guilt lodged in his heart because it has followed the ego in itself instead of the smooth running of the company, Papa gave up Arya's happiness to achieve all her wishes. Lately Papa also so often think what if he used to disagree with the marriage of this contract. Will his life be calmer than it is now? Will his son be happy? Even Papa also often fantasizes when his company goes bankrupt, it is actually okay if one day they become transformed into a simple life, living a simple life, after all, Papa also built a career not because he was born into a rich man's son. Even though his family is quite prosperous, Papa still pioneered this business from scratch.
Although Papa feels guilty about this decision but Papa also thinks this is a good thing.
If the truth about Raya is not revealed will Arya be happy? Wouldn't Arya be more heartbroken to know all this when they're married? It is like waiting for time to answer. Sooner or later, all the lies of the Kingdom will be known to Arya as well.
Thinking about this complicated thing makes Papa dizzy. This excitement and regret continue to make Papa's mind oscillate to understand his current decision is right or something wrong.
After all, Papa did not want to show it to Arya. Papa was afraid that his son even became sad and regretted all the things that had happened. Papa became a coward when he thought when the only child would become hated himself.
"Well, Papa, how the hell is that? Mama didn't mean to gossip Marissa, Papaaaa.. But I just regret that, you know. If Mama was in her position right now, it would hurt a lot Mama's heart, pity that child right?"
"Yes, rather than our conversation even go anywhere and later there is a misunderstanding, we better stop this conversation and now we should pray for Marissa's recovery. Papa understands Mama's feelings, to be honest Papa also pity her, but what's the power right? Although we are sad but we don't know, maybe this is the best fate for him, what can we do?"
Mama breathed a heavy sigh. He's still thinking about how Marissa's gonna feel. What will Marissa do when she wakes up?
Just like Arya, Mama also remembered Raya. The difference in the things that Mama remembers is a shadow of fear. Mama became afraid when she remembered Arya's story that Raya had been desperate to kill herself when she knew she had miscarried and lost her child. Mama is very afraid that Marissa will do the same later.
Mama wanted to shake off those bad thoughts, but it was hard. She is also a mother. Mama understands Marissa's feelings. Because the mother whose heart will not be broken if it has put great love on her baby is even ready to risk his life for his child to give birth to him into the world, then now who would have thought that all of a sudden he had to lose the child he was waiting for was gone even in a bad way.
Moments later Mr. Aga returned to meet them. He told her that Ms. Aga was still unconscious as well, probably due to the effects of the drug. And Mr. Aga explained his plan later Marissa will be placed in the same room with Ms. Aga to make it easier to take care of both. Especially considering the condition of Bu Aga who always worried about his daughter. This is the best way to monitor both of them. And according to information, now Marissa will be transferred first to the transition room to monitor Marissa's physical condition and if she is aware and does not experience complications then she is ready to be transferred to the treatment room.
Because Marissa's condition has gradually improved this Pak Aga so reluctant to see Papa, Mama and Arya who willingly wait for his daughter now looks tired and exhausted, and exhausted, he asked them to go home first. Because after all Arya and her parents also need a break.
After quite a long chat, with a heavy heart they left Marissa who would soon move into the transition room. Because the day had also started the night, and the clock was almost out of time so they could not see Marissa when she moved. Even so they have been promised by Mr. Aga will always tell anything about Marissa especially when he was aware.
Arya and her parents also say goodbye and make sure again that Pak Aga always contact them if there is news.
Mr. Aga said yes then they really went home and will come back the next day.
Mr. Aga stared at his iron back as he walked leaving him standing alone there. Then suddenly the phone rings. His voice echoed in the hallway of the hospital where he was.
A name of one of his men was plastered on his cell phone screen.
"You've prepared the place?" ask Mr. Aga to someone across the phone.
"alright. That place is far enough, isn't it? What about the documents?" ask again.
The person across the phone explained that he had already successfully handled the documents they were discussing. Just make it happen.
"What about the police? No problem, right?" ask Mr. Aga again to make sure what makes him angry.
Then his men explained again the success that Pak Aga wanted. Mr. Aga smiled at her smile. He was satisfied with the results given by his men.
"Yes. Nice work! Make sure the jerk is rotting in there without being able to get out at all whatever the reason. Then hire some people to keep him in that place. And finally tell the media what we have discussed earlier," then Mr. Aga hangs up the phone.
Mr. Aga held the phone firmly. From the way he held his phone could be seen just how much of a grudge he had for Tio.
"How dare a brash man like you harm my only son! Even the name of a human being is no longer appropriate for you! Just wait for what you will reap after sassy looking for trouble with me!" muttered Mr. Aga with eyes full of anger.
"I'll make sure you regret what you've done for the rest of your life. I'll even make you feel like a useless life to death is your best choice!"
