Jofan was increasingly unable to hold back his cries, a man like Jofan could not help but cry in this situation, the sadness completely emanated from his face observing the circumstances of this woman he could never forget.
His face was pale white with wounds that were still the same, just that there was no sweet smile on his lips, his cheeks that were once quite contained this looked very thin even his cheekbones looked very prominent, his hands that came out of the blanket and positioned beside him looked so thin, not only thin, even living bones wrapped in skin, looked smaller, of course it had been 23 years he did not use it.
Jofan's hand trembled as he wanted to touch Sania's hand, when his hand touched Sania's cold hand, just then his cry was completely broken, he had already waited 23 years for this moment.
During this time that is always in Jofan's mind, he will meet and see Sania's sweet smile with a cheerful face, even though he only looks at her from afar Jofan will feel happy. But now the woman was in front of his eyes, yet all he saw was a motionless body, peacefully asleep with no emotion at all. Jofan picked up one of the chairs that were there, placed it beside Sania's bed, he sat down while holding Sania's hand which felt only bone.
"Sania ..". "the word Jofan sounded hoarse and vibrating, he said it quietly and softly near Sania's ear. "I've come, I'm by your side, I'm sorry I've kept you waiting so long, I'm sorry" Jofan said between sobs.
No response at all, just the sound of a life-support monitor that sounds disturbing.
"I just found out about our son, he .." said Jofan stopped, not wanting to say that their son was not with him. "He grew up well, he became a cheerful child, very smart and friendly, percis like you, I will immediately bring him to meet you," said Jofan stifled, lying for the good of Sania. In his heart he was already attached, he had to find his son, no matter what happened, he would find their child, there must be a way to find him, no matter what, his mind went back to the documents submitted by General Indra, his feeling said there must be a clue there, but unfortunately at this time he could not look for it, he left it in his car earlier.
Sania still did not respond at all, her body remained stiff beside Jofan, Sania's hand was held very tightly by Jofan as if he did not want Sania's thin hand to remain cold, Jofan wants to channel his warmth to Sania.
"I'm here, I'll take care of you, recover, never give up, we'll be together, we'll be together from now on, me, you and our son, you, I'm no longer the president, I'm just a regular person, now we can be together, I promise I will forever take care of you, forever will be with you, Sania thank you for waiting for me," Jofan said again, but just like earlier like he was just talking to the wind then.
Jofan looked back at Sania's face, sitting next to her all night, staring at Sania's silent face with every life support tool that helped her survive these 23 years, really just looking at her, looking at her, not even closed for a second, afraid of losing this woman's face again later.
Morning dawned quickly but Jofan did not budge from his place accompanied by the sound of a life-support monitor that is now even very accustomed to being heard by him, rhythmically organized, and, the only thing that shows that the body in front of him is not just the body, there is still a heartbeat and breathing in it, Jofan just sits sometimes looking, sometimes stroking Sania's cheekbones that are so prominent.
Right at 7am, the door of Sania's treatment room opened, Jofan immediately looked at him, Doctor Elly and one of the nurses entered pushing a trolley that seemed to contain medicine and other medical devices.
"Sorry Mr. Jofan, it's time for us to give you medicine and food as well as to clean Ms. Sania's body, you may wait here or outside, But your Mother is already waiting for you outside," obviously Doctor Elly.
"Alright, I also have to take care of something, can you inform me if anything happens to her?" ask Jofan.
"Sure Master, I've had your contact, you don't worry, I think Miss Sania's situation will be the same as before but we'll still give it our best" the Doctor said.
"Well, thank you, Sania, I have to go first to meet our son, don't worry, I'll always be there when you need me, I'll be right back," whispered Jofan as he stroked Sania's dull-looking hair, he smiled, kissed Sania on the forehead and let the doctor do his job.
He immediately went out, saw his mother sitting down and drinking a glass of warm milk and eating the breakfast he had prepared, jofan's mother who saw her son so messed up knew that he had not slept all night seen from his red, wet, slightly swollen eyes also surrounded by dark circles.
"I'm here, I'll have the driver pick up mom, take a break, Sania's not going anywhere, don't get sick, and when are you going to tell Aurora about this?" jofan's mother asked, she knew, she had to ask this.
Jofan was silent for a while, all of these things made him forget that he now had a wife, a man who fulfilled his status as a husband, but he never loved the woman, he said, in her heart there is only the feeling of respect and pleasure for the woman, but she is unlikely to retain Aurora while Sania is now found, holding her for longer is just as Jofan destroying Aurora's life for longer.
"I'll tell him as soon as possible" said Jofan firmly but not looking at his mother.
"Are you going to divorce her?" his mother asked him, afraid that it would happen, however Aurora was considered to be her own child, a good girl, happily looking after her two grandchildren, looking after her child, and looking after her, staying by her side even though Jofan's behavior towards her is so cold, it's not fair for Aurora that Jofan divorces her only because Jofan has found Sania now, while Sania only lived a lifeless body, no one knew when she could come to her senses, not even the doctor had given up on her.
"I'm thinking about it" Jofan said.
"Jofan .. I've forced you to make your life suffer, but can you say again what you have in mind, Aurora is a good woman, she said, he's given his youth to you and Madeline's son, he's taken care of you and your dignity, won't that make his heart hurt? you divorced her just because you found the woman you love, while Sania couldn't even answer your words, it wasn't fair to Aurora" Jofan's mother said.
Jofan was speechless as he several times confirmed the tip of his suit sleeve, signaling he was thinking a little about it.
"I don't want him to expect anything in vain until he's old" Jofan told his mother, whose mother heard him smile.
"What if mom says it?, you don't want you to expect anything to go to waste until you get old and waste someone you might never get back to, later, mom just doesn't want you to lose everything, talk to her, don't make a decision, let her make a decision, will she survive?, or she wants to be free, that's all," his mother said she gave advice.
Jofan thinks again, some of his heart says he wants to let Aurora go, but some feel that what his mother said was right, after 18 years together, he said, it would not be fair if Jofan suddenly asked to part with Aurora.
"Alright, I'll leave everything to her, but if Sania comes to her senses, I want Aurora to know that I'm going to choose Sania" Jofan said firmly.
"Well, tell her that, Sania's conscience is in God's hands, if you are indeed a match with her, God will grant that," Mother Jofan said with a small nod.
"Yes, I'll go first" said Jofan.
"Oh, yeah, it's a badge of access to here, I don't need it anymore, you're gonna be here more times than you do, so I think you need this more than you do."
"Alright, thank you," said Jofan picking up the badge and leaving immediately.
