Stay Beside You's

Stay Beside You's
A Strange Feelings



Denna in the car looked dreamy. Somehow he seemed to see the figure of Dimas in Dane.


"Denna, are you okay?"


"Yes, I'm good." Denna was immediately shocked to get a reprimand from Fabio. "We're going home now."


"If you're not good, we go somewhere for you to eat or drink something."


"No need, Fabio. Let's just go home now, I'm tired anyway."


"Yes, that's it." Denna runs her car and they get out of there.


Along the way, Denna seemed to still think about Dane. Until he almost hit a rock in the middle of the road if Fabio did not resuscitate Denna.


"Denna, I'd better drive, from here I know the way to my house. You need to just relax because it seems like someone is troubling your mind."


Denna finally agreed and she swapped seats with Fabio.


Fabio told Denna to relax and let Fabio drive slowly because after all Fabio did not know the direction of the road.


Fabio got in front of his house and he told Denna to come in first.


"Denna, what's wrong with you?"


"Diaz, I'm fine."


Fabio explained with Indonesian mixed English that made Diaz confused.


"That's enough. I knew what you meant to be confused now."


"I'll get you a drink of Denna."


"Thank you, Fabio."


Fabio walked in and Diaz seemed to be closing in on Denna. "Tell me, what's wrong with you?"


"I just met Nio's daddy."


"Nio's "Daddy? The prince slept?"


"Yes, Dane's well and he doesn't look like the guy who's been in the hospital for a few months."


"Eh, how does it look? Cute, no? I just saw Nio's face know that his father must be handsome."


"I saw the figure of Dimas on Dane."


"What's? Oh my God, Denna! Why go to Dimas again? You should not equate Dane with Dimas even if they wear the same heart, but still Dane is not Dimas" Diaz stressed his words.


"You haven't seen him. So, you don't know."


"Stay away. You knew? Even though there are two twins, they are not the same. At least just want to be likened to his face."


Denna was silent for a moment and not long Fabio came in all the drinking water. He gave it to Denna and Denna immediately drained her drinking water.


"Denna, if it's still not good you should just rest here until the Rio mas will come and we can deliver you."


"No need, Diaz. I'm fine and I can go home by myself."


"You sure? Or did I call your dad so he'd pick you up?"


Denna. He did not want his father to worry about Denna's situation.


Denna finally came home by driving alone. He remembered Diaz saying to drive carefully.


Denna who had reached her house saw Nio's book on the table of her living room.


"Must be Nio's forgetfulness took him while studying here." Denna took it and put it in her bag.


He walked to his room and was eager to lay down for a moment his body which today felt like his entire joint was weak, what else when he found out if Dane had healed.

In that grand and majestic house of nant, there was the sound of laughter and boisterousness from the two people who had just met again.


"You don't cheat, Nio."


"Who's cheating, Daddy. Daddy's gone so he forgot how to play."


"Just tell Daddy he forgot how to play." They both seem to be wrestling with each other.


Rayhan's grandfather who had just been told that Dane had been discharged from the hospital of his own will went straight to his house and he had his face already worried about Dane.


"Dane's. Oh God! What are you doing, son?"


The worried-looking old grandfather hugged his grandson tightly. "Don't worry too much, Cake."


"How not to worry, Dane? The heart is hard enough to be in your body. Grandpa and Uncle Sam pray every day that you can see the world again. We can see the Dane again, the Dane who is dashing and not afraid of anything."


"Grandfather, I'm still the same as before, won't change one bit."


"But grandpa is really worried about you, son. Why don't you follow what the doctor says? You don't make grandpa hangers, son."


Dane hugged his grandfather tightly. "I'll make you smile from today."


"You're his only grandfather's precious treasure, Dane."


"I know. Cake, all this time Grandpa always obeyed what I asked. Can I ask Grandpa for something?"


"Of course you can ask me because you haven't heard your request for a long time, even if you're just asking to buy a miniature airplane."


There was a Dane laugh for a moment. Dane likes to collect miniature aircraft and from a small grandfather Rayhan always bring him every time he visits a country.


"I haven't hunted that thing in a long time."


"You should be careful keeping it, otherwise your little whiz will make a mess." Grandpa and Dane looked at Nio who was busy playing by himself.


"Grandfather, do you know a woman named Denna well?" Dane immediately took a serious look at his grandfather.


"You must've met Doctor Denna."


"Yes, and Grandpa still remembers me calling someone's name I don't recognize and that name is Denna?"


"Yes, why is it?"


"Why didn't you tell me you knew someone named Denna?"


"Denna's name is a lot, Dane. Grandpa never thought that Denna was. You better not have to think about it. Just think about what you want to do after this."


Dane looked at his grandfather flat. "I want to finish my business with someone."


"Son, you better not take care of things that are too dangerous first. Better let it all be taken care of by your men."


"I'm the one who has to intervene alone, Cake."


"Take your time with Nio. If you don't have time with your son, find him a mother to accompany him."


"Why was the issue discussed again? I don't want to talk about such unimportant things, Cake."


"You need an escort, Dane. You are not a very strong man who can live alone with your child, maybe you can, but Nio must miss the mother figure in his life." Both of Rayhan's grandfather's eyes looked towards Nio.


Nio walked towards the two men who were talking earlier.


"Great-grandfather, did my great-grandfather talk to Daddy about my school?"


"Event?" The old man seemed to think.


"Ouch!" Nio patted his eel. "Great grandfather must have forgotten."
