233. Tear Drops



"Dad, I'm here. Wake up, Father."


Orange could not reveal his heart. He can only speak in his heart, and he cannot be heard by anyone. However, the clear circle cannot lie. The liquid just dripped down his face. Fortunately, he was in a state of bowing. Until no one knows.


The tears hit the back of the father's hand. It did not escape Askara's view. The man just sighed softly.


"Uncle, Grandpa's crying." Gavin points toward the tip of Eki's eye.


Aska immediately saw it. Also Orange wiped his tears violently and began to hold his head up, looking at the weakly lying father helplessly.


The emergency button also press Aska so that the doctor who is on guard to check the condition of his father-in-law. He also saw that Jingga still wished her best for her father.


Not long after the doctor and also the nurse entered the doctor's care room Eki. They matrixed it and looked different looks shown by the doctor.


"Where, doc?" ask Ask. The orange is still silent. However, his gaze was still fixed on the figure of his father lying weakly there.


"Little by little it has started to go in a better direction" he explained. Aska smiled and she felt relieved.


He saw an orange with the tip of his eye. The corner of his wife's lips lifted up a little. It signified that he also felt relieved as well as happy.


"Continue talking" the doctor said. "In this condition only his body is unable to work nor is it conscious, but his brain is able to hear what we are saying."


Even the orange is silent. He thought for a moment. "Is it because of the melt of my tears that hit the back of my hand? So, you're feeling my pain." The orange murmured in the heart.


His eyes kept on his father. His father's twilight days should be filled with pain as well as solitude. Unlike the case with in-laws as well as the father of his sister-in-law. Their old age was filled with laughter from their grandchildren.


"If you would accept Dea and Ayna's shortcomings, you wouldn't be like this." Only the word if it is in the heart of Orange.


The doctor left and only Orange, Aska also Gavin there. The three of them continued to look at the doctor Eki who was thinner now.


"Hom!"


Gavin was already whispering his eyes. Aska immediately turned to look at the nephew who looked sleepy.


"Bring Empin to Brother Echa's house" said Jingga. He gently rubbed Gavin's black hair.


"Just go home Uncle, yeah. Bobonya at Bubu's house," said soft orange.


"Anteu didn't come home?" ask the boy again. He closed his mouth because he kept yawning.


"Mother's not coming with us?" ask Ask Aska too. A slab became the answer. Then, his gaze was fixed on the father who was still lying weak.


"Oh yeah, we go home together. Anteu will take care of grandfather first," Askara told the nephew.


Gavin approached towards the orange and hugged the tente's stomach so tightly.


"Just go home, okay."


The orange face changed again when he heard Gavin's words.. Especially when Gavin kissed his stomach. Aska admits that Gavin is a solace for her as well as an orange. He was very grateful to the four-year-old.


After Aska and Gavin left, the orange that was still sitting beside the sickle bed Eki began to approach and pull the chair there. A rough sigh escaped from the mouth of the orange. His eyes are wet.


His hands began to move forward. There's doubt there. His hand hung for a moment, but began to grab what he wanted to achieve. Yes, she grabbed Doctor Eki's hand and her crying broke.


"I'm sorry, Dad. I'm sorry." Orange said very softly.


"Don't leave me, Dad. Enough Mother to go so quickly." Her tears had already dripped so hard.


"Let me feel your affection even for a moment."
