The Angel Behind the Veil

Preparing for Operation Cantika

Before Cantika came home she stopped by the public toilet to change her clothes again.

"Stop sir, please wait a minute I'm going to my mother's grave." Cantika said to the taxi driver.

"Mom I miss you so much. Please ma'am give me a clue where I can find aayah." Cantika said in front of his mother's grave, he had tried to find his father but had not yet found a bright spot.

After praying for his mother Cantika went straight home to Arya.

When we got home it was noon and showed the time of prayer dzuhur.

Cantika went straight to her room and prayed, after which Cantika went into the kitchen.

"aeh Nak Cantika has come home, thank God." Said Bi Susi who just came home from the supermarket.

"Yes Bi, Aunt from shopping huh?"

"Yes my Aunt from the supermarket bought groceries."

"Then let's help Auntie prepare dinner."

Cantika and Bi Susi prepare dinner together like a mother and her biological daughter.

When the food was finished, Arya also came home from the hospital.

Arya looked at Cantika, she wanted to take Cantika to the hospital with her tomorrow. Arya had discussed Cantika's facial problems with the facial surgery team earlier this afternoon and they agreed to have Cantika's face operated on but had to check the severity of the wound on Cantika's face.

But Arya is confused how to start a conversation, really she is afraid to make Cantika feel sad and offended.

"Can, can I say something?"

Finally Arya ventured to ask Cantika.

"Can you come to the hospital with me tomorrow?" Ask Arya.

"Make what?" Cantika was surprised by Arya who suddenly took her to the hospital.

"Actually last month I asked a team of facial surgery specialists at the hospital about how to deal with wounds on your face and this afternoon we had a discussion and decided to take plastic surgery action on you. But for that we have to check how severe the wound on your face is. Are you willing to come with me for a checkup so we can run the surgery for you sooner?" Arya said that made Cantika and Bi Susi almost choke.

Cantika and Bi Susi stared at each other, in Bi Susi's heart was worried about Cantika and also felt bad for Arya because she helped Cantika cover up the secrets of Cantika.

Cantika was confused at this moment, she did not know what to say.

"I beg Can, this operation is very safe and guaranteed to succeed." Arya said she thought Cantika was silent because she was afraid of surgery.

"But Ar, I wasn't ready for this all of a sudden." Cantika said slowly, he has no reason at the moment.

"Trust me you'll be fine and even I'll run your operation with the other team myself, I'll make sure everything's safe."

Arya continues to persuade Cantika, she very much hopes Cantika agrees.

"Son Arya gave Nak Cantika time to prepare. It was indeed very sudden so of course he wasn't ready." Susi's aunt could not bear to see Cantika's situation and decided to help Cantika avoid the operation at this time.

Arya was disappointed at the moment, she had already prepared everything but she also understood this was indeed too sudden for Cantika.

"All right, but please let me know as soon as possible when you're ready. Me and my team will always be ready for you."

Cantika just nodded her head. To be honest right now he felt even more unwell towards Arya. If he had met his father, he would have told Arya everything even though the risk was to stay away from Arya. But somehow and where he can find clues about his father.

While going to bed Cantika picked up her father's diary. He read it carefully to see if there were any clues so he could find his father. Page after page he read and late into the night Cantika finished reading the whole book but found nothing. But when Cantika wanted to close the book, suddenly there was a paper tip that appeared from inside the book cover. Cantika took the paper and how happy Cantika turned out that the paper contained an address. Maybe it was his father's address. Cantika prayed that it was true and she decided to look for that address tomorrow.
