Hate But Love

98 (season 2)

Syifa curled up in her room. He was terrified because it had caused Zara harm. Syifa did not think that it would be this fatal. Body shivers. Syifa was afraid that her parents would know it was her. Syifa locked the door to her room and let no one in, including bi Tia. Syifa is haunted by her guilt. Moreover, at this time he did not know the news from Zara.

"It wasn't me who caused it. I just want Zara's brother away. Not rolled like that. Nooo!" shifa muttered while hiding her face and covering both her ears with her hands. He felt very scared.

Irregular Syifa breath. He started crying. Syifa pulled out her blanket and hid under it. He was really scared this time. Especially if you remember the time of the incident. Zara's body was covered in blood.

"Don't be afraid, it's not my fault. I-it's just brother Zara himself who is not careful," said Syifa to make himself calmer.

Until nightfall, Zara had not realized. Zidan still faithfully accompanied his wife. He rubbed Zara's hand slowly and turned to Zara's forehead. Anton and the others did not come home either. They're waiting for news from Zara first. Fortunately, Anton and Arvin understood the condition. Even though they had grudges before, for now they did not want to add any more trouble. Losing a grandchild is the worst news for them.

The silent atmosphere felt in the VIP room. No one talks between them. They are in each other's grief. Didn't know there would be something like this.

Zidan went to approach his parents and in-laws. He felt sorry for those who had been waiting for Zara in this room since noon.

"Ma, Pa, you go home. Let Zidan take care of Zara" Zidan said. Zidan sat down next to Alina. He leaned his head against the sofa.

"We'll wait until Zara wakes up, baby" Alina replied. Diana nodded.

"Let's Zidan call again. There's Fanny here, you guys get some rest" Zidan said. Alina looked at Arvin. Arvin nodded slowly. Then they both decided to go home. Anton and Diana, too. They came home because Zidan forced her.

Anton stood up and patted Zidan on the shoulder. Anton smiled faintly as he shook his head slowly. Then Zidan stood up and hugged Anton.

"We go home first. Take good care of my daughter. If there's anything, call us immediately" Anton said. Zidan nodded while taking off his embrace.

"You guys be careful on the road" said Zidan.

After the departure of his parents. Zidan immediately leaned on the sofa. He closed his eyes for a moment to ease the burden in his mind. Zidan tried to be sincere even though it was very hard for him. For four more months he will be a father, but God wills another.

Even at his funeral, Zidan felt it was a dream. His worst nightmare that will stick in his life forever. But in fact, it was not all a dream. She lost her baby when she wasn't next to Zara. Zidan feels like he failed to take care of Zara.

"Daughter, may you forgive papa and mama. Sorry, papa can't take good care of you," Zidan said. He brought his tears back.

Fanny who stood not far from Zidan also felt his sadness. Fanny could not bear to see Zidan in such a bad state.

"Young master, you rest. Let my lady Zara take care of her" said Fanny who could not bear to see the situation of Zidan like that. Messy and unlike the usual Zidan.

"No Fan, I won't sleep until Zara wakes up" Zidan argued. He wanted to keep Zara company.

"Alright, this time I listen to you Fan," Zidan replied.

Zidan stood up and approached Zara. He looked at his wife's sleeping face. He moved his face and kissed Zara's forehead long enough. Zidan stroked Zara's face gently.

"Wake up. I can't see you like this, baby" said Zidan. He kissed Zara again. Then he went to the sofa to rest himself. Zidan lay down and began to close his eyes.

Anton and Diana have just arrived at their home. Anton brought Diana to rest. His wife's body was already tired coupled with the unexpected incident.

"Mas, I want to sit here first" Diana said as they reached the living room. Anton led Diana to sit down. He called bi Tia to make Diana a warm drink.

"It's not your fault, baby. Why are you crying like this?" ask Anton gently. Diana leaned her head against her husband's shoulder.

Anton brought Diana into the room. After laying Diana down, she gently enveloped Diana. Diana closed her eyes even though she couldn't sleep tonight. But she felt sorry for her husband who kept looking after her.

Anton just realized if he had not seen Syifa at all. Usually the girl will be chatty if her parents come home late at night. Anton heads to Syifa's room to make sure Syifa is okay too. His steps were stopped when Syifa's bedroom door was locked. Anton tried to open it but still could not. Finally he came back down to ask bi Tia. Anton came down the stairs in a bit of a hurry. Unknowingly, his hands were smeared with oil that was still left on the handle of the stairs.

Feeling uncomfortable with his palm, Anton paused for a moment. He checked his hand as well as the handle of the stairs.

"Oil? Who put it on here?" inner Anton. His mind is troubled.

Anton was still there. After breakfast, there was only Zara and his wife. Anton's heading to the kitchen. He asked Bi Tia if anyone had come to his house today. But no one went to his house at all.

He kept thinking hard. Maybe the fall of Zara had something to do with it. But he is not sure about that either.

"Bi, after I get to the office, who's home?" ask Anton.

"Only me and Miss Syifa, sir. Madam and Miss Zara were out earlier," bi Tia replied.

Anton nodded in understanding. He is still curious about Syifa's involvement behind Zara's accident. Anton didn't want to accuse me first.

"Today he didn't go to school either. Is this a coincidence," Anton's inner.

Anton headed back to his room. He lay down beside his wife. Anton will ask Syifa this tomorrow. If indeed Syifa did it deliberately, he would not let Syifa just like that. Anton will be fair to his two daughters.
