The Curse of the Ex-Lover
Bastian's Clash
Bastian who heard the question from Sapphira gulped his own saliva. He let go of saying about the child in front of his own wife. Safira must not find out about her past with Dara. But his wife did not stop there. Even though Dara and Julian had gone a long way regardless of the question posed by Bastian. Safira still flocked him with various questions.
"Kids? Whose son are you talking about, Mom? What does this have to do with that woman?" ask Sapphira who does not care about Bastian who grimaces because of Julian's actions.
"No dear, you just misheard. I didn't say anything about the child." Bastian is still trying to dodge questions from Safira. He was alluding to the folly of his detached self talking about a child he never acknowledged.
"I didn't hear wrong. I heard clearly you were talking about a child!" Safira and Bastian are now in the hospital hallway. The condition of the hospital is quite mild, of course, making Safira does not hesitate to talk about women who make him curious.
From the beginning Bastian saw then called Dara with great enthusiasm making Safira think negatively. Certainly, the woman who was called even prevented her departure by her husband had a past relationship with Bastian. This was confirmed by the words of Bastian who admitted that he was like recognizing a beautiful woman who seemed to be pregnant because Sapphira saw him carrying a mother and child health book. The book he had wanted would have.
The meeting with Dara made Bastian and Safira's main goal to the hospital collapse. Both of them went to the hospital parking lot and wanted to go home soon. Safira is also very upset because Bastian only fell silent when he kept asking about Dara.
"Who is that woman? Tell me! Whose son are you talking about? Can't you do it?" Safira still continues to scout Bastian during the trip to their home. This made Bastian very angry.
"Stop looking for me with that question! He's a nobody to me. And I never said anything about children." Bastian snapped at Safira, which made his wife speechless.
"What's my fault? I was just curious about the woman you were chasing. I'm sure you guys must have a relationship." Safira's inner heart, she just kept quiet after being yelled at by Bastian.
Safira was already very saddened by the words of Mama Rissa who would present others in their marriage. She was happy Bastian wanted to check her health condition because the problem did start from the condition of her impotent husband. However, he is again blown away by the fact that Bastian has an ex-lover that he has not forgotten. Seen from the face of Bastian who had a lot of thoughts, Safira believes that the man who has been her husband for six months is still thinking about the pregnant woman they met earlier. If there really was a child among them before like Bastian said to the woman he was just questioning something. How could there be children among them? because while having a husband and wife relationship with him, Bastian's inheritance can never stand. Can stand even just because of the herbal medicine that Bastian drank when he was about to do her inheritance owned by her husband back lackluster.
Bastian glanced at his wife who was only speechless after he snapped at the woman. He felt guilty for yelling at his wife who knew nothing. Regret is always at the end, at this time he still regrets his actions that refuse accountability when Dara asks to marry him. Now, Bastian regrets bringing an innocent Sapphira into his life. He was not even able to fulfill his duty as a husband to Sapphira, but he continued to hurt Sapphira.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry Safira. You're a good wife, I'm the one who dragged you into my life filled with a dark past." Bastian did not say it directly to Sapphira, he could only say inwardly. I don't know what way Bastian did to gain the trust of Safira again.

Meanwhile, in a park that is behind the hospital. Julian tried to keep his wife calm, he still continued to hug his wife who seemed to tremble. They did not expect that soon to meet with Dara's ex-lover who was eager to be avoided.
"Bastian, you said you'd be responsible for me. Where's promise? I just want you to marry me." Not getting any support from Mama Rissa, Dara turned her gaze towards Bastian.
"No Dara, like my mama said. That's definitely not my son. You're definitely not just related to me." Bastian shies away from his responsibilities. With the heart of the man said that who was in the womb Dara is not his son.
Dara was still adjusting her breathing, she tried not to recall the rejection Bastian had made of her first. Dara tries to survive, next to her many people who love and need her. Moreover, there are babies who will be present to complement their happiness. Slowly Dada let go of Julian's embrace, she looked at her husband who looked very worried to her.
"We should go home, yes, later we check the contents or we check the contents in another hospital" Julian said to his wife who looked calm. The tremors in Dara's body had disappeared and her breathing had also been regular. Julian doesn't want Dara to experience anything else that makes his wife panic to see Bastian.
"We check in other hospitals, yes, Mas," said Dara who was feeling much better. She did not want her husband to continue to worry about her situation. Not wanting to continue to be struck by fear of his past he must be able to rise from the slump of past events.
"Aren't we going to check the contents tomorrow, baby? I don't want you to be like that. Sorry, maybe our decision to move to Jakarta was the wrong decision. I'd better talk to Aunt Kayla to get back to Bandung. I don't want you to meet that brengs*k guy again." Dara smiled at Julian's words. She can always count on the husband who has accompanied her in her bitter past.
Dara clasped Julian's hand, she knew how important the company was being managed by husband and Aunt Kayla. Julian had an immeasurable return to the family of Herlambang who had raised him. Of course Dara did not want to be a stumbling block that prevented Julian from returning the favor. He will never avoid again this time he is sure to face his past both Bastian and his family that he might meet in the future.
"No, Mas. We will stay in Jakarta. We cannot keep avoiding anyway. It's time for me to rise from the past that continues to haunt my life. There are you who continue to stand by me, I will not be afraid of them. Thank you." Thank you." Dara said it while smiling at Julian.
"Okay, this is just my wife. You don't have to worry, I'll keep you company. Whatever happens later in the day." Julian smiled at his wife.

"Jeng, this is Imelda. My youngest daughter who just finished her college in America," Vivi told her friend.
"Oh, that's pretty. Hello, dear Imelda." Mama Rissa smiled at the young lady who looked very fashionable. He has set up various plans that can change the life of his only son, Bastian.
