Hearing Jack's information as soon as Belva's thoughts stopped, his thoughts about work had evaporated. Mbok Yati covered his mouth still in disbelief while Pak Jajak put on a serious face and his hearing was wide he really wanted to hear clearly.
"I mean how? Non Alya really died like that? You're not lying?" Ask Mbok Yati.
Jack nodded, "I'm not lying, Alya is dead, he's gone, Mbok."
Jack's voice sounded uninspired and slightly shook. However, Alya was once part of his life even though he was just playing around. But the affection Jack had felt for Alya.
"How come, what's going on?" Ask Belva.
Belva also felt in disbelief, a few weeks ago he had seen Alya who looked fine even though his appearance was a little different from the previous one.
"Alyas... Her... Had bleeding and eventually had to give birth to the baby she contained prematurely. After that he was in a coma for a few days and today he was critical, the doctor tried to save him but Alya could not survive anymore, he died."
Jack's powerless recounts briefly what happened to Alya. All of this was also his fault to make Alya bleed at that time. But what would be said is all outside of his control.
"Huh?" Mbok Yati and Pak Jajak were stunned. They don't know if Alya's pregnant.
Unlike Belva who is not too surprised to hear the news of Alya's pregnancy because she had seen Alya at a glance. Only in his heart muttered it turned out to be true what he saw.
"hemorrhage? Be born? Non Alya is married? When?"
"Bok, it's not important for now." Belva.
Explaining the real thing he was also curious was not the right time for now. Mbok Yati nodded then asked nothing more.
"Where is Alya now?" Ask Belva.
"In the hospital XX." Answer Jack.
"You go back to the hospital, take care of everything. We'll be coming to the hospital."
"But I have to meet Alya's parents."
"Sorry what was your name?"
"Jack."
"Jack, listen. It's all too complicated to explain. Alya's parents let it be my business. You just go back to the hospital we'll follow."
Jack nodded in understanding, he had already reported the news. Looking at the calm face of Belva himself sure if the woman in front of him who does not know who is clearly possible Alya family because it sounded Mbok Yati who called her as Madam.
"Mbok, I'm going to your office first." Pamit Belva's.
Mbok Yati nodded, Belva immediately went round the direction of the destination towards the husband's office. The initial purpose of retrieving his work files immediately disappeared replaced with more important affairs. On the way he was busy contacting some of his clients who should meet him on this day. He soon arrived at the Bala Corp office.
"Mrs, we've arrived."
"Yes sir, wait here for a minute."
"Okay, Madam."
Belva got out of the car, she walked into her husband's office. Passing over the reception desk with a smile expanding from his lips greeted the friendly employee who served as the receptionist.
Until now there are still many employees of the Bala Corp office who do not know Belva clearly. Even Grace, Satya's secretary, still does not know about Belva's status as the wife of the owner of Bala Corp.
All some employees know is that Belva has a personal closeness to their boss because he has visited the office several times.
Belva walked quickly, so in a hurry he did not pay attention and was not careful. The elevator door was apparently closed, Belva no longer walked but ran quickly to reach the elevator door.
Bruck...
Accidentally due to his running speed, the shoulder of someone in the elevator was hit by him until the person staggered slightly back.
"Ah... Ck... You don't have eyes huh?!!" Shake the person because they are upset about what happened.
"I'm sorry, miss, I didn't mean it. Is anyone hurt? I'm sorry." Say Belva politely and gently. There is a sense of guilt for being less careful.
Belva tries to touch the person's shoulder but is pushed hard by the shoulder owner.
"Don't touch me with your dirty hands!!"
"You think this is a roadside that can run as well as a jidat huh?! You don't see this office, don't you have ethics huh?!!"
That person was a beautiful woman who Belva did not know the person. They were in the same elevator.
"Why did you get on this elevator? It's a special elevator for the important people in this office. Who dare to use this elevator."
Belva immediately frowned, she thought the elevator that was often used her husband when he visited was indeed allowed to be used by anyone.
Hearing words after words that are not pleasant to hear and feel, Belva just chose silence. Serving people he does not know will only get longer and widen everywhere. Even up to the twentieth floor still occasionally heard insinuations and sneers from the woman.
"For the morning, Miss. You want to meet Mr Satya?" Grace greeted Belva with a friendly smile but her eyes immediately turned to the woman who also came with Belva. He didn't know the woman.
"Who else is a girl?" Ask Grace in my heart.
Belva just smiled and was about to open her mouth to answer but was preceded by the woman earlier.
"Amorning, is Mr Satya inside?"
Grace was just silent, she frowned. Belva just smiled at Grace.
"Dam!!! You budeg?" Said the woman rudely.
Obviously Grace was immediately upset with the disrespectful woman.
"Satya sir doesn't exist." Grace said with annoyance and annoyance.
"Is Mr Satya in a meeting?" Ask Belva politely and gently.
"Ah you want to meet, Miss? You just go inside." Grace said kindly. Different when answering the question of the unknown woman earlier.
"You said Mr. Satya doesn't exist." Said the woman.
Lazy to see an unimportant debate Belva say goodbye to Grace and enter Satya's room. Of course Grace is welcome and does not hold back because Satya who has advised him if Belva comes there himself or not still allowed to come in to wait inside.
"Dam!! How presumptuous of you to enter the room of Mr Satya!!" Shake the woman and pull.
Belva immediately threw the check and just entered the room of the husband. He sat on the sofa when he saw the room looked quiet.
The woman seemed to keep babbling making Belva more and more upset. It felt like Belva kept the woman's mouth with the flatshoes she was currently wearing. Indeed, the existence of the woman made Belva's mood more unfounded and increasingly uncomfortable. Amid the sad news that he received now he met a woman who tested his patience and emotions.
Satya suddenly came out of a room that was allegedly a toilet. The man was also surprised to see a wife and another woman he knew as the daughter of one of his colleagues.
"Ecchem..." Deheman Satya's voice was deliberately made a little hard so that the woman who had been babbling was silent.
The two women turned to Satya. Belva remained seated as the woman approached her husband.
"Mas, where have you been? I've been looking for you a few times." Said the Woman.
Belva's forehead shriveled but her eyes glared at Satya. The one who was stared at seemed to know if his wife was uncomfortable with the woman's words. Satya hurriedly rejected the woman as she was about to hug her. Stepping back to get away from the woman.
"Shut up at your place, Gladys." Said Satya coldly.
"Mas, why? I miss you, you haven't been home for a long time."
Belva looked up at her husband. Satya is afraid if there is a problem back.
"Miss, keep your attitude." Belva's words made Gladys immediately turn to Belva.
"Why? I love what I want in this office. This is my lover's office." Gladys said confidently. He doesn't like Belva's words.
Gladys is the daughter of Satya's business colleague just like Sarita. Indeed, many daughters of Satya's colleagues are eyeing him especially when it began to spread the news that Satya has divorced. Many people try to get close to him.
"Oh yeah? Who's lover?" Ask Belva.
"Mas Satya is who else. What do you have in my lover's office?" Ask Gladys to Belva.
"Mas, he's not polite to play in your room when your secretary forbade him from entering." Gladys lies to Satya to get Satya to scold Belva.
"really?" Satya asked glanced at Belva.
"Ah Gladys, you are not acquainted. Shouldn't you get acquainted first." Satya.
With his spirit and arrogance Gladys without reaching out introduced himself as Satya's lover.
"Include me Gladys, the fate of Satya the owner of this company."
Belva was still sitting casually, she smiled sinisterly.
"Oh yeah? Introduce me Mrs Aryasatya Balakosa, the legal and religious wife of Satya the owner of this company." Say Belva calmly and casually.
Satya smiled when she heard his wife introduce herself. But he was confused why Belva was in this office because this is still classified as morning and did not Belva say that he was busy at the boutique.
"Mas, he's lan..."
"Darling, is there anything important to come to the office, ma'am?"
Satya's question automatically cut off Gladys' speech. When he saw Satya walking towards Belva.
"Huh? What the fuck? Papa says he just got divorced and doesn't have a partner yet." Gladys muttered annoyedly.
Belva stood up from her seat, she grabbed her husband's hand and shook her head and kissed him on the back. Satya replies by kissing Belva's forehead.
"Very important, more important than my job and yours." Belva said that he ignored the existence of Gladys.
"important? What's up?" Ask Satya.
"Miss, it wouldn't be polite for a married couple to take the time to talk but you're still here." The way Belva repelled Gladys was made as smooth as possible, Belva uttered that by giving her sweetest smile to Gladys.
"M-ma-you mean? You kicked me out huh?!! This isn't your office there's no right for you to expel me." Gladys.
"As the wife of the owner of Bala Corp, then she has the same rights as me, Miss. So, please you out."
Inevitably with the annoyance and also the embarrassment that increasingly attacked Gladys immediately passed away just like that. Facing Gladys is considered quite easy without using violence just like facing Sonia and Sarita who are always tucked into violence in debate.
"What's up, baby?" Satya asked as Gladys was completely out of her room.
"Mas, we have to go to the hospital now."
"To the hospital? What's for?" Satya's forehead wrinkled, confused as to why his wife had suddenly taken him to the hospital.
"You sick? Or who's sick, baby?" Satya panicked and worried. His wife's hand held tightly with another hand examined Belva's forehead.
"Alyas..." Brief bva.
The grip of the hand loosened instantly as Belva's reply was able to make Satya's worries and panic evaporate.
"Why him? Why should we go there." Satya asked flatly.
"Mas, Alya's gone. We have to get there now."
Degs...
Satya's feeling was suddenly uncomfortable.
"Mas, she's also your daughter even though you know she's not your real daughter. Alya was gone when she gave birth to her child. We have to get there right away."
"You know where it came from? Don't believe their words." Said Satya trying to brush aside her feelings considering the cunning for the sake of the cunning that Alya and Sonia did.
"Jack, Alya's friend came and brought the news that was supposed to be for Alya's parents. But I know for myself Alya's mother is in prison then who else will take care of her for the last time in this world."
Yep... Belva was right however Alya had been in his life once they were close as father and son.
"What hospital is he at?"
"Labour XX." Answer Belva.
"We're going there." Said Satya holding his wife's hand and then came out of the room after carrying his cellphone.
Without words Satya came out with Belva in a hurry even Belva also forgot to say goodbye to Grace. By using his wife's car, which was carried by the wife's personal driver, they left for the hospital. The feelings of the two of them were uncertain at this moment, although Alya had done evil to them especially Belva and her children but as a human who has a conscience, of course they will not bear if they have heard news of such suffering.
Arriving at the hospital they immediately asked the receptionist about Alya's whereabouts. Apparently Alya has been taken care of and has been moved to the morgue. With a quick step Satya holding Belva approached the room where Alya was.
The door opened with the nurse driving them. Satya and Belva walked slowly over to someone who was lying stiffly on the cage with a white cloth covering the entire body of the woman.
"Yes..." Belva held her husband's arm.
Satya nodded towards Belva, indicating that everything will be fine. Satya glares at her lifeless daughter, want to say his daughter but the reality is not his flesh and blood but if not his daughter but Satya used to think of Alya as his daughter even at the last time Satya expelled him Alya still called him Daddy. It was a complicated relationship in Satya's life.
Slowly the covering was opened by Satya's heavy hand. Satya was stuck staring at that lifeless pale wajha.
"Alyas..." Lirih Satya and Belva simultaneously.
"You're really going, son? Alya, Daddy apologized to you for the mistake Daddy made you." Satya said in her heart.
In fact Satya could not say it directly in front of Alya's body. In the depths of his heart, it turns out Satya still recognizes Alya as his daughter. Just because of Alya's outrageous attitude and behavior makes Satya's heart seem closed and indifferent to Alya. Everything happens there must be a cause and a consequence of not being able to mislead one person as a whole and not being able to label someone with the word should because every feeling and condition of a person must be different from each other.
Other people will be easier to judge without knowing how their respective lives are, how they face reality. Because the storyline of our lives with others must be different. Many are too easy to judge until they forget their judgment on themselves.
"Alya, is this really you? Why after all this time we do not say hello instead you give shocking news like this. Alya, I personally apologize to you if I have any faults that I accidentally hurt your feelings." Belva stared at Alya.
Realize that the condition between him and Alya is not okay since the incident. Although until this detail Belva never knew clearly what was wrong with Alya to make their relationship cracked. Their once-familiar friendship is now shattered only by a feeling of hate.
"Excuse me, Mr and Miss. Ambulance is ready." Said the nurse who was handling Alya's body.
Satya nodded, covering the cover of Alya. Then switch to grab the shoulder of the wife who shook due to holding back her crying. Belva cried, her tears came out while conveying an apology to Alya which obviously will never get any response at this time. If it happened first when they faced each other then what happened was not this kind of silence but a commotion.
"Here you go, let's get out." Bring Satya.
Belva only nodded as her gaze only stared at Alya's body which was already covered in white cloth. The two come out with Satya holding his wife, their hands clasping each other to get peace with each other.
Outside Jack and Noella sat on an aluminum iron chair. Jack's wife was still shedding tears, she also felt she had a mistake on Alya because there was a little commotion before the bleeding occurred. Jack was the same as Noella who was silent the difference Jack held back the rate of tears.
Satya vividly remembers the face of Jack who used to be acquainted with him and admits to being the lover of Alya. Satya pauses before Jack and Noella. There is a sense of indignation in the man in front of him who also looks to calm his wife just like him. However, Satya has all her feelings for Jack.
"Ekhem... You guys take care of everything?" Satya asked the married couple in front of her.
Noella and Jack looked up at Satya and Belva and they both nodded at the same time.
"Sir, I don't know what happened. But can Alya be buried in your house before the funeral?" Noella asked softly and expectantly.
Jack did not understand the words of his wife but he just silently listened to her. Satya watched Belva for a moment then nodded in agreement at Noella's request.
No need to wait any longer, Alya's body has been pushed towards the hearse. The two couples followed Alya's body. Satya and Belva choose to get into the ambulance while Jack and Noella follow behind with their car including Belva's driver also following from behind.
The siren ambulance rang loudly as they walked along the streets of Jakarta at a speed that could not be said to be slow. Belva informs her house people to prepare everything needed at home including also informing Budhe Rohimah and Bella.
All who know Alya certainly quite sad for the return of the woman to the creator. Although Alya's attitude is not pleasant, Satya's domestic assistants still show empathy.
Bella and Duo Kay did not know who Alya was directly so they just fell silent. Crying is not just the empathy they provide.
"Mommy, who is she?" Kaila asked innocently.
"Mommy, why is Mami crying?" Ask Kaili.
Belva rubbed the heads of her two children gently while smiling thinly.
"Honey, it's Alya's aunty, Kaili's aunty and Kaila's." Answer Belva.
"Our county?" Ask Kaili.
"Yes, son."
"But I've never seen aunty." Kaili.
"Aunty Alya hasn't stayed with us all this time because Alya's aunt is busy, baby."
"Aunty died, huh? Why?" Ask Kaila.
"Because Aunty Alya was more in love with God after aunty gave birth to little sister." Replied Belva patiently giving understanding to her two children.
The sight of Belva who was giving understanding to his two children did not escape Satya and some others.
Those who understand how Belva's past due to Alya feel touched, Belva does not instill hatred in his two children for Alya which obviously always makes them difficult and suffer.
"Alya, did you see him? Belva really loves you, son." Inner Satya spoke as if she was talking with Alya.
Several mourners came, they were from the left right neighbor of Satya's house and Satya neighborhood and some colleagues Satya and Belva who knew about the sad news. They also mourn Alya's death.
The funeral was finally held at three in the afternoon. The car drove Alya's body back to its final resting place. Although there were no sobbing sobs but there were still tears that accompanied Alya's departure for good.
Across the cemetery, there is a car that has been faithfully parked, two people stay in the car to pay attention to the conditions inside the cemetery from a distance but can still be reached by their view.
