It Turns out I'm the Second

Ch.65 The storm hasn't really passed

"Give me time, ma? We've been apart for years, it's not easy to start everything over. Much has changed. Including your feelings, maybe what you feel right now is just a feeling of guilt, not love as you echo." said Nuri weakly. Yes, he needs time to consider everything. Moreover, now they not only have to think about their own feelings, but also there are others. Moreover, all this time, she believed she would never meet again with the man who was still her husband status. It was an unexpected meeting. Years ago, he had given everything, including his feelings of love. Although until now the feeling is still neatly stored in its place, Nuri did not want to be rash. He could not get his heart broken back. He is no longer an ABG child who has a lot of time to think about love problems. This is not the time anymore.

"For the matter of forgiving, I have forgiven you since many years ago so you don't always need to feel guilty. So did Nanda, I realized, he was innocent at all. He is the victim of our selfishness of adults. Maybe God intended us to meet in this way. Not just to meet, but also solve problems and forgive each other." added Nuri again made Doni bowed lethargic.

Doni looked at Nuri who was wiping away the remains of her tears. He smiled even though he looked forced. Then, Doni again glanced at a young man who still looked loyal to accompany Nuri. A few preconceptions flashed through Doni's mind especially after hearing the young man summon Nuri with a mother's call.

'Is he my son or is he Nuri's son with another man? Nuri may marry someone else! But I haven't divorced Nuri. How could she marry again, while she was still my wife? Did Nuri marry siri?' that's how the various allegations that flashed in Doni's mind made his head dizzy itself.

Not wanting to assume carelessly, Doni asked him directly to Nuri.

"Well, if that's what you want. Please, you will consider it well. This is purely because you still love you, not because of guilt. And I want to start over from the beginning. I want to make up for all my past mistakes. I want to repair everything and heal your heart. And ... mas wants to spend the rest of your life only with you." said Doni really make Nuri silent trying to digest everything. "Oh yeah, baby, can I get something to you?" ask Doni carefully.

Nuri nodded.

"Actually, where have you been all this time? And ... who is that young man? Is he ... our son?" ask Doni.

The young man in question immediately raised his head staring at Doni expressionlessly. His mouth was tightly closed, as if reluctant to talk to Doni a single word.

Nuri paused for a moment, trying to gather words and reveal all.

Nuri took a deep breath and exhaled slowly while looking closely at Doni's eyes. Doni was still silent on the spot with his eyes still looking red.

"Include us, he ... January. He ... my son." said Nuri made Doni round his eyes.

Just now that Doni wanted to open his voice and ask a question, Nuri first interrupted him so as not to speak before he finished telling a story.

Doni finally went back to listening.

"But ..he's not your son. Didn't you know, my content is weak. And my departure the other day had something to do with my uterus that didn't allow me to get pregnant. When I was slumped because of your actions, I actually experienced things that made me worse. I ... I have uterine cancer, mas." said Nuri made Doni's breath choked. Her chest is like squeezed. He never knew his wife was going through such a bad thing. He regretted why he was not by his wife's side in his worst moments. Doni could only be stunned with reddened eyes while listening to the word after word that flowed from Nuri's lips.

"That's what made me even more determined to leave because I would no longer be able to give you offspring. While you know yourself mas, Mama Risa really wants to feel fond of grandchildren. I feel like a useless daughter-in-law. Finally, I chose to leave. I thought, that way you could go back to the woman who gave you offspring or .. or you could remarry another woman and give me a grandchild." said Nuri with tears.

He did not expect that today would come. The day he revealed all the bitterness he had endured a dozen years ago. Actually, the taste of Nuri tells it because this is the same as scraping his old wounds that he tried to bury deeply. In fact, no one knows the suffering he has endured so far. It keeps the past close.

"After I left, I tried various traditional treatments. But everything was in vain, until finally the last path I had to choose just by lifting my uterus. I ... I'm now just a woman without a womb, mas. I ... barren. I can't give you a descendant. I finally enjoyed my loneliness, until one day I helped a pregnant woman. Her husband died in a work accident. She has no place to stay so I invited her to stay with me. But .. his fate is very unfortunate. She died shortly after giving birth. Since then, I've looked at January like my own son. January is like a lamp in my lonely life. When I had no one by my side, he was present as my solder. January, he's my son. My beloved son." he concluded with sparkling eyes.

Then January clasped Nuri's hand tightly and kissed her reverence.

"Mother is also solace, January. Without a mother, who is this January. Maybe January will end up in an orphanage being an orphan. For January, I am the best mother in the world. January promised, will always make a happy mother for life January" he said surely with teary eyes.

Everyone in the room looked glassy. They did not expect, Nuri's life was so strange.

"Message?" parrot Nuri.

"Yes, aren't you Nanda's mother as well so you're my besan, aren't you? Well, even if you're not her real mother, I hope you can accept Nanda. He's a very good boy. I'm sure, you'll like it a lot. And I'm very proud to have a besan like you. I hope, we can establish friendship and family relations in the future" Lavina said expectantly.

Nuri smiled full of haru. Lavina had only met him this time, but he already thought of her as family.

"By pleasure." Nuri said.

"Honey, can you think of January as a child too?" Doni asks Nuri for permission. After all, Nuri's son was also his son, not. Especially during this time, January was the solace of his wife. He was grateful, thanks to his presence, Nuri so have the spirit of life.

"certain. No problem." he said sure. "Januar, salim with father." said Nuri.

January also complied and kissed Doni's hand with reverence to make Doni's eyes glazed. Then Doni pulled out January's hand and hugged her tightly.

"Januar, can you call me in January!"

January seemed hesitant, then he ventured to call Doni father made Doni sobbing happily.

"Dad ... "

"Yes ... It's dad. Now January also has a father." he said, sobbing. Then Doni let go of his arms and held onto his shoulder in January, "Januar, can you ask for help?"

January nodded slowly.

"Please persuade me to go back to you, Jan! Do you want to have a complete family? You also want a mother who accompanies? You just calm down, I'll try to make mom happy. I promise!" he tried to persuade Nuri through January.

Then January turned towards Nuri. He actually knows that his mother still loves his father because sometimes in January he hears his mother's sobs while looking closely at a piece of photo that is a wedding photo of Nuri and Doni. January nodded, saying yes because he also wanted his mother to be happy. He wants to see his mother return with his love. Nuri certainly glared at how January easily agreed to Doni's request.

"Alhamdulillah ... Thank you, son! You are indeed a father's son." he said sumringah then he glanced at Nuri and rolled one eye making Nuri snort and turn her face while smacking a smile.

However, the moments of happiness were suddenly interrupted when the patient monitor screen showed Nanda's heartbeat weakening making everyone in the room including Gathan confused. Gathan immediately pressed the emergency button and soon doctors and nurses arrived to check on Nanda.

Gathan grabbed his hair in frustration, he's really worried right now. In Gathan's heart growled withholding emotion, 'All this is because of that woman! I'll never forgive him.' His mind when I remember all this happened because of Freya's actions. He became very upset because it has been almost 2x24 hours but Freya and Reza have not been found.
