Geraldine went back inside the house, looking for William, but her steps stopped when she saw another figure in the living room of the house, an old man in a wheelchair, staring at everyone who was there.
"Well what else did he come here for? Is there still not enough that he's been doing all this time?" suddenly someone commented behind Geraldine.
It turned out that Andriana and also some other people, seen Reva, Rendy and Ericka came down from the top floor in a hurry. While Nico with William and Erick seemed unhappy with the presence of the old man, staring intently at him did not like.
"You want what else? We don't want to have any more relationship with you, our relationship is long over!" william said with a trembling voice, reluctant to look at his opa.
"I know, and I won't bother you again after this. My arrival here would like to thank you for what you did to my life, even though I did not want it, but God still gave me the opportunity once again to live." opa Harja said slowly.
"You should be grateful for what you have now, it means that God still loves you and gives you a chance to repent. And just use this little time to reflect and repent!" suhut also Erick cold.
"Erick, grandson... It's been a long time since we've met, opa kangen.." said opa Harja staring at Erick.
There was no deception from that gaze, everyone could clearly see that gaze, that gaze full of longing. Opa Harja looked at William and Erick alternately, eager for him to stand up and hug his two grandchildren, but to stand alone unable, let alone walk towards the two of them.
"Opa.." Reva tries to stay calm approaching opa Harja.
"Son, your gestational age is already great apparently.. Hehe, it seems I forgot my own age, when I saw you like this, self-conscious will have a great-grandchild, hehe.." kekeh opa Harja, looks sincere smile carved from his lips.
He did not care about some sharp and cynical gazes directed at him, nor did he he heed sharp remarks, and insults for himself. He just wanted to see his grandchildren before he left..
"When do you get home from the hospital?" ask Reva softly.
For some reason when seeing opa Harja behaving like that makes her heart full, forgetting all the feelings of hatred, resentment and anger, which there is a feeling of pity and haru enveloping her heart at this time.
"Sir, your time is soon." whispered a nurse who was accompanying opa Harja, who had been standing quietly beside her.
"A little while, a little more.. I don't have enough time with my grandchildren, before I go let me tell them something." Harja told the nurse.
"What does Opa want to say? Say, we're busy!" william said still coldly, Geraldine looked at herself with a different look.
"I know from his cold gaze and words, there is a longing for his opa." murmured Geraldine inwardly, looking at Haru.
"This you, should not behave like that to parents even though you hate it so much." said opa Harja, still with her soft words.
William is seen snorting annoyed by turning his face away, while Erick goes from there as if he hates his grandfather so much. Ericka catches up with Erick who just left.
"Rick!" call Ericka while following her from behind.
"Don't follow me, I want to be alone first." said Erick while sitting cross-legged and leaning against the wall of the corridor of the house.
"Let's just say I'm not around, I also want to sit here." Ericka said, sitting next to him.
"Son, who said it?! I want to be here too, can't I?!" suhut Ericka again, ignoring Erick's sharp gaze.
Meanwhile, in the living room, after being satisfied to see them all and a little chattering opa Harja was saying goodbye, no one took her out to go home, and no one was there to take her home, not even water he could drink.
"Opa, soon Rendy will get married and I will also give birth, come and pray for us." said Reva again, only he welcomed her arrival well.
"Well, so yeah.. Congratulations, for sure! Opa will surely pray for you all with the best prayers,, opa say goodbye home well, and please leave William and Erick as well, sorry we always trouble you," opa Harja said as she clasped Reva's hands sincerely, Reva felt the old hand tremble as it touched her hand.
After that opa Harja left, Reva wanted to drive him home to his house but intercepted Nico, but instead Nico who would take him to the front of the house.
"Son, thank you for helping and looking after them all this time. If it wasn't for you and the others, maybe I would have continued to live in hypocrisy.. And thank you for accompanying my two grandchildren, please leave this for them" opa said before leaving the house.
Nico receives a small flash in his hand from Harja opa, after which he sees Harja's opa assisted by the nurse boarding an ambulance-like car, but it is also written that it belongs to a rehabilitation rutan.
"It seems that opa will be held in a rehabilitation foundation, given her age and also the illness she suffered as well, it is unlikely that she will be held in an ordinary prison.." muttered Nico while looking at the accompaniment of the police car that escorted the car carrying opa away.
After that he refocused on what he was holding right now, he was about to look for William in the living room but there was no one else there. It turned out that William with Reva and Rendy and Andriana were in the living room.
While Erick accompanied by Ericka and Geraldine, Nico approached the three of them and followed the sit there. At first they did not care for each other, but for a long time strange also sat in line in the row of corridors.
"Honestly, I'm afraid to see you guys like this. I don't want to be treated like that, I don't need to be pitied!" erick was upset.
"Also if you want to talk, do not believe it," he said again ketus.
Ericka, Geraldine and Nico looked at each other and smiled amusedly. It's true that Erick's words, they are not suitable for melancholy, especially the same Erick, will never be able to.
"Opa nitipin this for you and William, look! Don't just keep it, I know you two pretend to be strong and as if you don't need opa anymore. But remember, after all, he is the biological grandfather of both of you.
Not that I'm a smart ass, but I see that the real opa has changed, I can see from her gaze and voice when talking with Reva, and also with me before she leaves..
He's still there, see if there's time. Be a good grandson at least once, let him not feel alone at the end of his age. Make our experience a lesson for you too, not after leaving and then regret." said Nico at length.
After that he leaves Erick and walks towards William along with the others, while Ericka and Geraldine encourage Erick again, and give Erick time to be completely alone, to think and think about his grandfather.
"Ericka, after I think about it.. It looks like I will choose to act before regretting, seeing this incident makes me think again, despite the different context and problems, but I don't want to regret it the next day." Geraldine said.
Ericka just nodded her head as Geraldine spoke like that, she did not understand the meaning of her words but tried to understand and encourage her.
