Loving you Painful

Episode 14

                Aiden walked down the hospital hallway. He stopped his steps when he reached the front of the room where Elena was treated.

He stood facing the door and stared at it for a long time. It's not that she doesn't love Elena, but it's because Elena lost Agneta. Because of her mother's greed, she had to live like a chess piece that Elena had to manage.

Aiden sighed before holding the door knob and opening the door. He entered the treatment room.

The figure of an elderly woman lying weakly on the bed. He stared at the figure where the medical device was attached to fill his frail body.

The old Elena has changed. The woman who is his mother is now not as arrogant and arrogant as before. The woman now looks older, frail and helpless.

Hearing the sound of footsteps approaching, those wrinkled eyes opened and turned to the side of the cage.

"A-aiden?"

His murmur was so weak and was heard whispering because his mouth was covered with breathing apparatus.

"It's me, Mom." Aiden sat at the side of the cage holding Elena's hand.

As evil as Elena is, she's still the woman who gave birth to Aiden. Although there was still a sense of annoyance, but Aiden could not possibly hate him even hostile to him. Because now their families only live the two of them. If it wasn't Aiden then who else would have accompanied Elena.

"Well, how are you, son?" Elena looked at Aiden with a happy look. Her tears came from the corner of her eye. He misses his son very much.

"Good news. I'm sorry I just got here" exclaimed Aiden.

Elena shook her head while crying. The other hand that Aiden did not hold was raised into the air as if he wanted to reach Aiden's cheek to be stroked.

Aiden who understood the gesture, slightly lowered his head and brought his cheek closer to Elena's palm. He let Elena caress his cheeks full of affection.

"I'm sorry Mommy, Aiden." Elena looks crying. "It's all because of Mom's greed, that our family's ruined."

"No, don't say that. Everything has happened, there is no need for anyone to regret," Aiden exclaimed.

"Mom should focus on Mom's health. I'm planning to take Mom to N in America" Aiden said.

"You... You lived there all this time?" ask Elena who is Aiden.

"I can finally become a Lawyer, as I wish."

"Mommy was happy to hear that. You live well there," cried Elena smiling happily while enduring the pain in her body. He tried to regulate his breathing that felt tight.

Elena pulled back her hand, then groped the bed until she got what she was looking for under her pillow.

"This" Elena handed a small rectangular box to Aiden. The silver box looks antique.

"What's this?" ask Aiden to take the box.

"Open up."

Aiden opened it and saw a necklace with a heart-shaped hanger of pink rubies. Also a ring with emerald gemstones in green.

"Whose jewelry is this?" aiden asked his forehead.

"It's just a treasure that I currently have. It is the ornamentation of our family that has been passed down to the daughter-in-law of the Wiratama family. I got it when I married your Daddy." Elena sighed long enough and closed her eyes to expel the pain in her chest.

"Give this to my future son-in-law. Do not let this jewelry disappear. Giving the jewelry to the new son-in-law is a family tradition."

Aiden just stared at the box.

***

Aiden did not expect after that long chat, Elena breathed her last in the night. Now Aiden is really a kara without his parents.

Aiden is currently standing near the coffin of the Mother who has been bathed in clothes. Some of the mourners who came to say their condolences to him.

I don't know why her tears didn't come out of her eye pelup. He felt sad and lost

"Aiden..."

The call made her turn to the source of the voice and her gaze widened slightly looking at who was coming.

That's Devara, Kevin, Dave and Agneta....

5 Years passed and he had not expected to meet again in this kind of atmosphere.

"You guys coming?" asked Aiden turning his face away with still showing a flat expression.

"So morning we heard the news about Aunt Elena's death" Devara exclaimed.

"Long time no see, Brother cousin." exclaimed Dave with his usual sharp gaze.

Aiden turned to Dave and Agneta who chose to stand near Dave.

"Yes, it's been a long time Dave, Neta... How are you?" ask Aiden who is calm and ordinary.

It turns out that the debaran no longer exists. It turns out that love is gone. And now he's back against Agneta. The feeling has changed despite the trauma.

"As you can see. How're you? I heard you became a lawyer in N, America."

"Yes that's right, cousin sister." Aiden smiled slightly and turned his gaze away.

Aiden is currently sitting on a sofa in the Wiratama family home. After Elena's funeral yesterday, Devara forced her to come here, whether to discuss what.

"Have you come?" ask Dave who just came in with his casual after and sit on the sofa that was in front of Aiden.

"What did you call me here?" ask Aiden.

"It's not me. I was also asked to come by Devara" exclaimed Dave calmly.

Aiden did not answer and chose silence. The atmosphere there became so awkward. Dave sat haughtily, with his feet he lifted up on his own knees.

Aiden just sat quietly and turned his face away from Dave.

Yes, they both have characters that are inversely proportional.

"So, how are you doing there, brother?" ask Dave.

"I'm glad to hear it." Dave smiled a little.

Devara soon approached them.

"You have come as it turns out" he exclaimed and sat down among them.

"Just explain, Vara. I intend to go back this afternoon, ", said Aiden.

"Why is it so rushed?" ask Devara.

"There's a lot of work there" Aiden said.

"All right." Devara opened the file in her hand. "Aiden, Dave and I have been deliberating and our family lawyer knows it. Because of a coincidence this morning, Mr. Bramono's got a need, so we're talking about this without a lawyer."

"Is there a problem?" aiden asked his forehead. "Or do my parents still have debt?"

"Calm down, Brother Cousin. Why are you so emotional?" exclaim Dave calmly brewed a drink that had just been provided by a housekeeper.

"There's no debt whatsoever, Aiden. Regarding your parents' debt, Wiratama's company has paid it off" Devara exclaimed. "And this is the certificate of your family home that was confiscated by the bank. We've made it up to you."

"And this file is a 40% ownership file of PT Wiratama. And we have changed in your name. You just have to sign it."

"Is this some kind of donation?" aiden looked at the two files on the table.

"Eh?"

"Ck, I told you Vara. This cousin of yours will only think negatively of us. He's willing to accept all this kindness" Dave said.

"Be quiet Dave" cried Devara. "This is not a donation, Aiden. You are the heir of the Wiratama family as well. I just want to be fair. That is your right" said Devara.

"My stake in Wiratama is 30% and so is Dave. We split like this because you are our Big Brother. The eldest granddaughter of the Wiratama family." Devara.

"Now Dave is not taking care of WT corp anymore. I also really just want to be a Housewife. If you want, you can go back to WT Corp and take over the position of chief director."

"I came here just to see my mother. I have no interest in settling down or returning to the company" Aiden said.

Devara and Dave looked at each other.

"Have you made up your mind?" ask Devara.

"Yes Vara, I feel like my life right now is there" Aiden said.

"So, maybe you still need to think about it. For a while I'll take over the company. Until you come and are ready to lead the company again." Aiden was silent.

"Why are you doing this? My parents almost wretched you," cried Aiden.

"Because we're family. Let's talk about our parents. They are calm in nature. And I don't want our family relationships to be as broken as they are" Devara said.

Aiden was silent.

"Do you still hate me?" dave asked again in a voice made Aiden look at him.

"That problem is over, Dave. And I don't think it's any good that I hate you anymore" Aiden said.

"Good then."

Aiden finally signed the dossier given by Devara. Aiden still does not want to return to the company and settle in Indonesia. Somehow his heart was fixed on the city of N where there were two people who made him always remember them.

"I'll be going this afternoon. So now I'm saying goodbye."

"Don't want to have lunch together first?" bring Devara.

"No. Next time."

Aiden stood up from his seat followed by Dave and Devara. He shook hands with his two cousins before leaving the house in Devara.

Aiden's steps came to a halt as he passed someone at the main door.

"Aiden..."

"More..."

"Aiden's father...!" it was Regan's voice running from behind Agneta's body and crashing at Aiden.

Aiden turned his gaze to Regan who was now growing older.

"Hallo Regan," cried Aiden rubbed Regan's head which was now high enough to his stomach.

"When's it coming?" ask Regan.

"Not slurred anymore, eh?" aiden's exclaim made Regan chuckle.

"No," chuckles.

"You haven't seen each other in a long time, you're getting good-looking and mature" Aiden exclaimed.

"Yes dong, Dave's father lost his good looks to me" exclaimed Regan confidently.

Dave's son is right. Think Aiden.

"Good," cried Aiden. "Om can't linger here. I'm going back to N city. You're in good health and don't be naughty well" cried Aiden.

"Ready!"

"I'll go first, Neta."

"Yes." Yeah."

Aiden moved past the two people who had stopped in his life 5 years ago.

But that feeling no longer exists. The Debaran is gone. And Aiden did not feel any tightness or burden again when he left everything this time, in contrast to 5 years ago.
