129. Lying for the good

Lord, if only you had heard the expression of my heart today. I really want to change the contents of this DNA test.

Even my father and I have never had an emotional bond. But he is a very important person in my life.

God, without my father, I might be a nobody. Without you, I cannot be at this point. Without you, I would never have studied independently like this.

God, I beg you, I just want him as my father. Even though I don't have a blood tie to her.

Even though he was often rude to me. Silence me often, scolding me, not wanting to see me. But I live from his labors. It was she, who bought me milk since I got out of ASI. From his sweat and struggle I was able to enjoy a good meal every day, which had been processed by my mother's tender hands. Because of him, I can go to school, get a place to live, buy clothes, and so on.

Lord, he is a responsible man, why do you give himself a trial through my presence.

God, I'm sorry.

Typhoons.

..

Slekkk..!

The typhoon opened the door of Amoroso's room, then he stepped into the room. Amoroso and Erna, gazing at the walking Typhoon with serious looking faces.

Tears, beginning to pool in Erna's eye patch, prepare to uncover her veil of the past that she has closed as much as possible.

As for Amoroso, the man seemed resigned to whatever happened. His gaze was so firm, even though he was drooping limp on the bed.

"How's it?" Ask Amoroso.

The storm did not answer the old man's question. Instead, he walked closer to Amoroso. Then, he handed me the envelope of DNA test results that were still visible in the seal.

Amoroso stared at the envelope, and then he stared intently at the Typhoon.

"Why haven't you opened it yet?" Ask Amoroso.

"Father has the right to open it first" replied the Typhoon.

Amoroso stared at the typhoon's face once more. Then, he grabbed the envelope with trembling hands.

"Open up sir, I want to know what it is" Typhoon said.

Amoroso looked at Typhoon who kept looking at him and Erna who was bowing her face deeply.

Srekk!

Amoroso tore the seal off the envelope. Then, he took the contents of the envelope. Amoroso began to unfold from the piece of paper he was holding.

"Please my glasses," Pinta Amoroso.

The typhoon rushed to pick up Amoroso's glasses on the table right next to the bed, and handed them to Amoroso.

Amoroso stared at the trembling hands of the Typhoon. Then, he took the glasses and put them on.

Probability of parentage: 99.99 %

Amoroso fell silent, then he looked at the Typhoon so deeply.

"Come," Amoroso spread out his hands.

The typhoon was riveted and returned Amoroso's gaze which he could not understand.

"Come on," Pinta Amoroso again.

The typhoon approached Amoroso, and received a warm embrace from Amoroso.

"Sorry Father, for treating you so badly. And. Dad said, even if you're not my real son, you're still my son. Thank you, because you grew up so well. Although all this time, I've never been nice to you."

The typhoon shed tears upon hearing Amoroso's words. He returned Amoroso's embrace tightly and sobbed on his father's shoulder.

With Erna. The woman was crying. It was not that he had survived Amoroso's prejudices. Instead, Erna knew, if the Typhoon had faked the results of the DNA Test.

The typhoon pressed the elevator button and entered the elevator after its doors opened. The typhoon re-presses the button that will take it to the ground floor.

A moment later, Typhoon was already on the ground floor of the hospital. He walked over with an empty look, heading towards the laboratory.

Like the beginning, Typhoon knocked on the door of the laboratory and the same officer opened the door for him. The officer looked at the Typhoon with a puzzled look.

"Sir, can I help you sir?" Ask the officer.

Typhoon nodded, still with a blank look. He handed the envelope containing the results of the DNA test that had been opened, to the officer.

"I'm asking for help, please change the results of this test. From 0% to 99.99%."

The lab worker stared at the Typhoon in disbelief.

"But sir, changing the results of the test is illegal. My certificate is the guarantee" said the officer.

"I'm asking for help. It's for the good of the family,"

"meaning?" Ask the officer with a confused face.

"Whatever happens, I'll take responsibility, and I'll make sure no one knows or sues you. I guarantee this safety and secret."

The officer still objected. Because he feels Typhoon is a cheating cop. Because it arbitrarily changed the contents of the letter from the DNA test that Typhoon said it was a DNA test sample from its target.

"Sir, I can't..."

"I'M ASKING FOR HELP! Please be me... Please.please..." The storm was crying in front of the officer.

The officer was silent, and he led Typhoon to sit on the waiting bench in front of the laboratory.

"What's up, sir? Does the content of the test concern you?" Ask the officer with a face that looks so concerned about Typhoon.

The typhoon wiped his tears, then he let out a long sigh and looked at the officer.

"Over there, there was an old man who had raised me. Who's questioning my flesh blood or not. He, lying weak from the heart disease he suffered. I did this DNA test, so that she would stop hating me, and come back to respect my mother, and also so that my mother would stop feeling guilty about her."

"What happens when he finds out I'm not his real son? Wouldn't he get sicker and even die? Wouldn't he feel lied to for decades by the woman he loved so much?"

"I beg you, lie for the sake of time that only a little is owned by my father. So that at the end of his life, he will be calm and happy. Please, just this once." Pinta Typhoon.

The officer was silent, he looked into both Typhoon eyes with the gaze of a mother. Then, slowly he grabbed the DNA test paper and moved from his seat, then he went back into the Laboratory.

Typhoon fell silent, he cried again in silence. Although he felt very sinful, but for the sake of his parents who had a beautiful old dream, he was willing to bury the reality deeply.

Ten minutes later, the officer came back out with a new envelope that was seen still sealed. Then, he gave it to Typhoon who was looking at him with a hopeful look.

"Go back upstairs. And. be the best child for the man you call the 'father."

Typhoon cried, then he hugged the officer and cried in the officer's arms.

"Thank you ma'am, I won't forget mother's kindness."

The officer smiled, then he returned the embrace of Typhoon, like a mother who was willing to do anything for the sake of her beloved baby.

Typhoon released his embrace, then he rushed to meet his parents who were impatiently waiting for the results of the DNA test.

Lying, not recommended. But, have not almost all humans on this earth ever lied? In fact, no matter how good a man is, he must have lied.
