Love in the Waiting

Asyila's Promise

A week passed, now Vino's condition has fully recovered. Today is the day of Vino's return from the hospital, as long as it was Asyila who accompanied and guarded Vino, he was even willing to leave work in the Office just to accompany his favorite child. Now that Vino was in Asyila's lap, the two of them were waiting for Erlan's arrival to pick her up.

"Mother.."Call Vino

"Hmm why baby ?"Asyila was a little surprised because she was daydreaming.

"Mother of earlier daydreamed, huh ? daydreaming what's bund ?"ask Vino

"Hmm. that. ngga ko dear, Mommy just think about the work"sangkal Asyila.

Asyila was struggling with her thoughts and feelings. On the night that Erlan said she was going to marry him, Asyila was a little happy the 8-year wait was coming to an end. But it was just the wishful thinking of Asyila, he remembered that night also Erlan said the thing that made Asyila a little hurt to hear it.

The Flashback

"What do you mean ?" ask Asyila

Now they are outside the care room of Vino, the child has fallen asleep to his beautiful dreams after Asyila accompanied him and read a fairy tale before going to bed for him.

"You're talking about what Syil is, I don't understand." Erlan said

"On you asking me to marry you and become a mother continued Vino, You are joking or what ?"syila

"Oh about that, you don't take Syil too seriously. Anyway I just want to make Vino twinkle, about my request to marry you that will not happen." Erlan said casually

"You just want to make Vino happy for a moment ? You mean to give me hope for Vino ? Why should I be rich ?"ask Asyila

"You're not worried about that Syil, I'll slowly give understanding to Vino. I have also decided to accept your match with Melanie, I will give understanding to Vino slowly to accept Melanie as his mother later." Erlan said

*You know, your words make me very sick. You have hurt my heart deeply, given me a moment's hope and finally you also hurt me again.Batin Asyila***

Sungguh saat itu Asyila saat ingin menangis, namun apa daya ia tak ingin terlihat lemah di depan Erlan. Asyila mencoba menutupi sakit hatinya dan memberikan senyuman terbaik di depan Erlan.

"I thought you were serious about marrying me, it turned out that it was just for Vino to be cool. Besides, you're the same Melan fit ko, I'm sure he can be a good wife and mother to you" Asyila said as she turned her eyes away from Erlan, intending to hide her heartache because of Erlan's words.

You don't even seem to be sad when I say I accepted my matchmaking with Melanie, Syil. Have you felt for me, Syil ?Inner Erlan occasionally glanced at Asyila.

"Mother, Papa has come" said Vino while patting Asyila on the shoulder.

Asyila gasped then before long she normalized her mood."Oh yes dear, yaudah let us prepare. Yeay finally Mother's child can come out of here too." he said while holding Vino.

Asyila was intending to approach Erlan, but her steps came to a halt when she saw the scene before her eyes. Melanie was struggling spoiled on Erlan's arm, even occasionally Erlan stroked Melanie's cheek fondly. They look so good as a couple. Asyila normalized her heart which was actually in pain like a sharp knife.

"Hi Papa's son, ready to go home to meet Oma and Opa ?"asked Erlan enthusiastically

"Vino can't wait to see Oma and Opa, Pa" said Vino

"Hi Syil.."sof Erlan

"Thank you Syil all this time you have taken care of and cared for Vino, sorry for being too focused on Vino's health you so forget your work in the Office" Erlan said

"Gapapa ko mas, I was able to take care of Vino until he was healed. Besides, Papa doesn't mind if I don't go into the office these days, Papa knows about me who has to take care of Vino." explained Asyila
