Bella's footsteps were restrained when she saw Typhoon sitting on a waiting bench, right in Berta's hospital room. There was a bouquet of flowers in his hand and a small basket of fruits on the bench, right next to the Typhoon.

The man looked silent, dissolved in thoughts raging in his chest. Highlight his eyes seemed to be glaring at the door of Berta's room. Her lips were tightly locked and her agitated hands seemed to be playing a ribbon tied in the bouquet.

Bella, who had just returned from the police station, stepped slowly towards the Typhoon. Instantly, the man turned his head and moved from his seat when he saw Bella walking closer to him.

"Bella," said Cyclone when Bella pretended not to know him and wanted to go straight into Berta's room.

Bella flinched, she pulled the door to Berta's room. However, at that time the Typhoon also held Bella's arm and blocked the door with her body. With a lazy face, Bella threw away her gaze. There were traces of crying in both Bella's eyes and cheeks. At that time Typhoon really felt very guilty to the girl.

"You what?" Bella asked with firm intonation.

"I want to talk. This is for you and this fruit is for Berta. I was here this morning, but because I was in a hurry, I didn't have time to bring anything for Berta's mom" Typhoon said, handing out the bouquet and the fruit basket.

Bella glanced at him cynically and indifferently at what Typhoon had said or what Typhoon was about to give her.

"Go home, your place is not here" Bella insisted, pushing the body of the Typhoon, so that the man would give himself a gap to enter Berta's room.

Typhoon shaking, he still blocked the entrance and continued to look at Bella with shady eyes.

"Bell.. i.."

"Oh, we're done before we even start. You and I, there's no relationship whatsoever. In fact, I don't know what your name is!"

"My name is Typhoon."

"Whatever! Whatever your name is, I don't care. A-k-u t-i-d-ak p-e-d-u-l-i...!" Bella Strictly.

The typhoon let out a long sigh and swallowed its salivation.

"Excuse me, I'm going through" Again Bella tried to push the Typhoon, so as not to block her path.

"Bella I'm sorry, you should know between duty and love. I love you is what it is. I served it because I loved my country and my job. It's different Bella, you should know that,"

Bella looked at the Typhoon with a look full of anger. As a lecturer in psychology, he felt insulted by the speech of Typhoon. What the Typhoon said is true. However, his ego and anger were so attached to him at this moment. Whatever Typhoon said, it felt like an insult to him.

"You're questioning my quality as a psychology student?" Bella asked with eyes that started to turn red.

"That's not what I mean Bella."

"Then what!"

"Bella, I'm in a dilemma! What should I do! If you were in my position, you would do the same!" There was a loud sound coming out of the Typhoon's lips.

Bella fell silent, until she lowered her face and cried inside her silence.

"There is no connection between love and work. Love yes love..work yes work, no relationship her Bella! I hope you understand that. I love you, I never lie. Even if I, call it cheating on you and your family. Even if that's not what I mean, because I just work and I happen to fall in love with you. Then what should I do?"

Bella lifted her face and looked at the Typhoon with wet eyes.

The typhoon breathed a long breath. It seemed that Bella really did not understand and was willing to understand the explanation from him.

"Bella, I told you, job yes job, heart yes heart. Those are two different things Bella's path. If I was able to betray my work, are you sure that one day you wouldn't betray me? Work and vows to the country and God alone I lie, what other matters of the heart that can get tempted one day?"

Bella is speechless, she runs out of words to deny what Typhoon told her.

"Bella, I'm sorry. I beg you to understand. I'm really in a dilemma. Loving you and your family is not a charade. I love you Bella.. Not a charade!"

Bella sobbed, she stepped into the chair and sat there crying.

"Bella," Typhoon knelt before Bella who was bowed and wept bitterly.

"I'm sorry.." Typhoon grabbed Bella's hand and continued to look at Bella's eyes which were flooded with tears.

There were footsteps approaching, a female doctor and two nurses approached them. At that moment, Bella wiped her tears, as well as the Typhoon who stood up and looked at the doctor and two nurses who stopped in front of the door of Berta's room.

The doctor was stunned when he saw the Typhoon looking at him. Then, he glanced at Bella who moved from her seat and put on a friendly face to her.

"Well, do you wanna check on my mom?" Ask Bella.

"Ah. i-i-iya mbak Bella," said the doctor.

While the Typhoon glanced at the nametag embedded in the woman's doctor's cloak.

"Congratulations." That name is no stranger to Typhoons.

"Congratulations?" Inner Typhoon.

"Please dock" said Bella, walking ahead of the doctor and entering Berta's room.

The doctor smiled at Bella, then he glanced at the Typhoon that was still staring in front of her.

"This guy, this morning's guy?" Inner Lestari, a beautiful doctor with an exotic skin, a sweet smile and black hair is beautiful until his shoulder.

"Let's dok" said one of the two nurses who was with Lestari.

"Ah, yes," Lestari looks misbehaved. He ignored the Typhoon and entered Berta's room.

"What is the relationship between the patient and the man? Or. lest he be the husband or lover of Bella's mother. This morning was so embarrassing. I didn't know he was a cop. Humffff...why meet again the same he." Inner Lestari, as she stepped towards Berta's bed.

"Hello mother, how's she doing?" Ask Lestari kindly.

Typhoon looked at Lestari who looked wrong at the moment. Until his view was blocked by the door that was closed by a nurse who had just entered following Lestari.

"Did he run from the father's co-worker's son?" Typhoon Mumbles.
