“What are you talking about? Dad cheated?”

“Then why did you go shopping with him? Why do you come to his place so often? Mom is sitting on her bed.”

“What?”

Yuni came out of her room.

“Tell me the truth. You cheated on her, ‘kan?”

“No. Not like that.”

“If it's not like that, then what? Why go to the supermarket and shop with her? I saw everything.”

“It's true I went to the supermarket with him, but it's not what you think. Don't tell... You go to his place and bother him again?”

“Iya. Do you think I'll just sit still and watch you guys? I pulled out all her hair. Wh why? You don't accept? What are you going to do?”

“What did you do to that sick woman? He has pancreatic cancer!”

“Pancreatic cancer? Katherine has pancreatic cancer?”

“Yes. It's stage three. He had surgery for stomach cancer, but it had spread. If he doesn't have surgery now, he won't last until six months.”

“What are you telling the truth?”

“Iya. But he refused to be treated. So I went to see him to make sure he had surgery. Yuni, we have to keep him alive. The guilt of leaving Lucy must have been too great for her, she said it was better to die than to have surgery. I can't let that happen. I said I'd help her. That's it.”

“Why are you going to help him? She's a rich lady. He could hire a nanny. If you have such pure intentions, you should have told us and visited him in the open, not like this. Why do you lie to us by saying visit a friend when he comes to his place? You are no longer her husband. Why do you care if he lives or dies? Why do you care so much?”

“How do I not care? She is the woman who gave birth to Lucy.” Harry stood up and left.

“See. Looky father. He's acting weird. Don't you dare see him again!”

Lucy heard the shock. He went into his room and cried. He recalled saying a harsh word to Katherine.

“Why did I say that? I have to see him.”

Harry checked into Katherine's apartment, Katherine went missing. He tried to contact her but was not picked up. Lucy also came to Katherine's apartment. She's afraid Katherine's leaving because of Lucy's words telling her to disappear.

“Lucy, why are you here?”

“How about Katherine's mom? Is she okay?”

“Dad can't connect to it. He disappeared and turned off his phone.”

“He disappeared? Oh, naw. It seems to be my fault. I came here and told him to disappear. I shouted at him and told him to disappear from this world. It's because of me,”

“No, Lucy. Not salahmu. He'll call soon. Don'worry. Let's just go home.”

“If for example he did not call us and refused treatment, then he died. Why should he disappear and make us all worry. Why should he show up and make things difficult for us? I hate him so much!”

“Lucy... can you stop hating your birth mother?”

“I have to stop hating him? How can I do that when I hate him so much? I hate him!’

“You hate your own mother, I feel it's dad's fault. It's all dad's fault.”

“Dad, why is it dad's fault? He's the one who left us.”

“Dad thought it was because dad instilled hatred in you. If you don't hate him, you don't either. Lucy, I understood a little how your mother felt about why she left. If you have to hate someone, hate me. Stop hating your mother. Dad don't want you to hate him so much now you'll regret it later.”

“What did dad say? I don't think I can forgive him,” Lucy said and left.

Harry asks Lucy to stop hating his birth mother, and she doesn't want Lucy to regret it one day. But Lucy can't help but hate her mother.

Kylian called Lucy. Lucy was crying. Kylian goes to see Lucy. Lucy immediately cried in Kylian's arms. She told Katherine she had cancer and her condition.

She doesn't know what to do, she hates Katherine but is also kasian to her. Kylian reassures Lucy that she deserves to hate but can also be.

“Katherine's sister has pancreatic cancer? Really it?” Kylian surprised.

“Iya. If he doesn't have surgery, he won't last six months. What do I do, Kylian? I told him to disappear from this world. I hurt her so much. What if he dies because of me? I should how? I was confused as to what I was feeling. I hate him, but I feel sorry for him too. I should hate him or I should pity him, I don't know.”

“You can hate him if you want, and pity him if you want. Let your heart feel what it wants. Everything will be fine.”

Yuni's nights saw her husband unable to sleep and stayed awake with anxiety. She knew her husband was thinking about Katherine. He was angry at night with jealousy. He hysterically tells Harry to go with Katherine and divorce her. Lucy feels tormented hearing her father and mother fight over her birth mother.

“What is this? Wh why? Are you worried that he's gone? Is that why you can't sleep? Because you're worried she's dead?”

“What has possessed you? Don't shout, everyone is sleeping.”

“”You're so worried about him? Then go and stay with him. Why stay here with me?! Just divorce me! Divorce me!”

Lucy and Lucio enter her parents' room.

“Mother, why are you screaming night-night?” ask Lucio.

“Lucio, look at your father. She couldn't sleep because she was worried about Katherine. I can't live with her anymore. Your father never once worried about you like this. When mom left home when we lost the house, your dad didn't even look for mom. But she couldn't sleep because she was worried that Katherine might be dead. How can you consider him a mother's husband? Who raised the child she left behind? How could you do this to me? Mom wants a divorce! I have no desire to live anymore. Go with him, s*lan!”

Meanwhile Lucy could only fall silent and cry looking at her mother.

In the morning, Harry is informed that Katherine is staying out of town and is ill.

“Halo, there was a woman who checked in at our inn, but she looked sick. That's why I called. Do you know the owner of this phone?”

“Iya, I am his family,” replied Harry.

“Then, please pick him up. He didn't want to go to the hospital, so I called.”

“Thank you. Where is he?” Harry went there.

“Where do you want to go so early? To meet the woman?” yuni asked as she watched Harry walk out of her room.

“Yuni, Sapphira has been found. She's in bad shape, so I'll pick her up.” Harry left immediately.

“Why did you pick him up? Who are you to him?” Yuni failed to prevent Harry.

Harry takes Sapphira home, for surgery. Harry tells Lucy that she is crying over Sapphira. Sapphira must be operated on for Lucy's sake. Sapphire was moved by her daughter thinking about it. He also complies.

“Harry, why are you here?”

“What are you doing here? you're operating next week. Come with me back.”

“This is not good for you. Let's go,”

“I will die or not is none of your business. I won't go with you.”

“What's my wife for? She didn't know you were sick at the time.”

“Your wife deserves to be angry. I don't want to cause any trouble in your family. You keep taking care of me, therefore I went out of town.”

“Sapphira, don't make things difficult for us. With you like this, you will disappoint Lucy. Did you know she was crying?”

“Lucy crying? Cryingme?”

“Iya. So, come back with me. Go home. Please, I beg of you.”

Harry returns home after picking up Sapphira. He spoke to Yuni, his wife. Harry pleaded with his wife to be allowed to accompany Sapphira until she underwent surgery. Yuni is heartbroken. Lucy and Lucio heard their conversation from outside the room.

“Yuni, please forgive me just this once. Allow me to be with him to be by his side until the operation is over. Justjust please. I beg of you.”

"What does that mean? You prefer him to me? You ended the relationship with me?”

"Why did I end my relationship with you? That's not what I meant. I can't let him die like this. If I let him die, I'll regret it for the rest of my life. Yuni, can't you allow me just this once? Don't complicate the situation. I just want to make sure that he gets operated on, gets well, and then goes back to France. Justjust please. For Lucy. I'm begging you."

"If you want to go see her, sign the divorce papers first. End the relationship with me first"

“What?”

“If you really want to be with her, divorce me first! How can you be like this to me? Put yourself in position, si*l! how would you feel if you were me?”

Lucio opened the door. He was upset with his father for hurting his mother.

“Dad, how could it? How could you ask me that question? How can I treat my mother like this?”

Harry also left.

“Iya, just go! Just go! I don't need a husband like you either. What does he mean to you?! How can you do this to me?” Yuni shouted while crying. Lucio hugged her.

“Do not cry, mother.”

Lucy also separately blames her father. “Dad. What's wrong with you? I don't understand Dad at all. How could you ask that of my mother? Don't you feel guilty?”

Harry tells Lucy that Katherine has no one.

“Lucy, he's sick. He has no one. How could he pass through it alone?”

“Who is he for dad until dad does this all?”

“She's your birth mother, Lucy.”

“Dad, did you forget how you hated him first? I know you can forget and forgive, but you can't do this with you. He was the one who accompanied father to this day. How could you be so cruel to your mother? If you want to take care of Ms. Katherine, fulfill your wishes and divorce her first.”

“Dad understands. Dad's wrong. Dad knows dad wrong.”

“Apologies to mom.”

“Good. But, Lucy. Ms. Katherine will have her surgery soon. Your heart will be broken if something bad happens to her.”

“She lives or dies is none of our business anymore. Why should I be hurt if she dies?” Lucy left her father.

Harry went back to the room.

“Yuni, I was wrong. I'm really sorry. I must be crazy. I would never say such things again. I don't even care if he lives or dies. Yuni, please don't be angry.”

Kylian meets Sapphira, her brother (Katherine).

“I didn't know that my brother had been sick all this time. Let me know if there's anything I can do,”

“No. No one can help me. I have to face it myself. Let's not talk about this. I have a lot to say to you, Kylian.”

Katherine apologizes for making Kylian sad, not caring about Kylian's feelings, even though they have been referred to as brothers.

“I... apologize for everything. I always wanted to say this.”

“Kak. Don'worry. Just relax.”

“You always support me and greet me like a family whenever I come here.You consider me a big brother, but I only hurt your feelings.”

“Kak.”

“It's not because I hate you. And not because you did something wrong. It was because of my guilt and regret for leaving Lucy. I wanted to take her away with me and do all I could to make up for the time I missed. I gripped things I didn't deserve. I just thought of Lucy without your feelings. And I think he's too young for you, I think he deserves better, but I didn't realize it hurt you. I'm sorry, Kylian.”

Katherine explains that she didn't mean to intentionally hurt Kylian. His heart was filled with guilt for Lucy. Therefore, he wants to make amends and bring Lucy to France. And she felt Lucy was too young to give it to Kylian.

“Sister, you don't have to say all that. I'm fine.”

“Kylian, you still love Lucy, ‘kan?”

“Yes, we're back together. I'll never let go of him again.”

“I understand. I'm glad you're the one Lucy loves. I believe you will make Lucy happy.” Now he feels relieved that his son loves someone like Kylian.

“Kylian, please make him happy.” Katherine held Kylian's hand.

“Do not worry about Lucy. Brother must get well soon. Brother must see me and Lucy live happily together.” Kylian wants Katherine to be healthy and witness the happiness of both of them.

“Good. I'm gonna do that. Thank you, Kylian.”

Lucy was invited to lunch by Kylian. He was astonished that Kylian was so serious and tense when holding his hand.

“Where are we going to lunch this time?” ask Lucy.

“There are good restaurants around here. you must like.”

“Why do you look so serious when we just go to eat? You look like you want to fight.”

“I?”

“Iya. You look like you have a mission to complete.”

It turns out that Kylian took the initiative to meet Katherine with Lucy to eat together. Kylian knew the two wanted to meet.
