"Why indeed? We don't have any relationship
again."
Obviously I worry about him all the time, but I still
answer it nonchalantly.
Gabriel frowned and looked at me with sad eyes, but I
he walked away from before him.
Candra disappearing sounds weird. No one knows where he went.
Even Stella brought their daughter and possessions to the United States, she too
never showed up.
It was as if Candra had completely disappeared from this world.
"Mother."
In the middle of the night, Denis in pajamas came to my bedroom
with bare feet. He climbed into the bed with his small body and lay down
beside me. Her little head was leaning on my shoulder and her little arms were embracing
my neck, "Mom, I dream of a father, not a foster father, but Candra's father.
I dreamt he came to see me. But his body was covered in blood, very
scary."
Did Denis have such a dream? I was stunned for a moment. I
hugging the little boy beside me into my arms and hugging him tightly, she said,
"Don't be afraid. Honey, everything's gonna be fine."
My actions comfort my son and also like amusing myself.
I'm really worried about Candra.
As I hugged Denis and fell asleep, the phone suddenly rang. I
drowning in a blood-soaked Candra nightmare and being shocked by
that ringtone. My heart was pounding, as if it was about to jump out of
my chest. I got up and picked up the cell phone that was far beside the bed,
"Hello?"
Hendra's low voice rang out when the sky had just brightened,
"Clara, there's something I want to tell you, I hope you stay
quiet."
"What?"
I have a feeling something is not right. There is another meaning in
Hendra's words. Unknowingly my fingers clenched my phone. At that moment,
my heart beats as if it stopped.
"Candra, she's now in the home intensive care unit
sick, he's in critical condition."
My phone fell out of his hand and slammed into the hardwood floor
make a clanking sound.
"Mother!"
I screamed Denis, that little boy just woke up by a ring
telephones. Now, he propped his hands up on the bed while looking at me in horror
with his big eyes.
"It's okay."
I comforted me for a moment. Then I got out of bed, got my phone
who fell on the floor and rushed into Jasmine's room.
"Aunt Jasmine!"
I knocked on the door excitedly. Before Jasmine spoke, I
push the door open and enter.
Jasmine seemed to have woken up from a nightmare, her face was pale and there was
sweat on his forehead. He sat up from the bed with his arms held up
her body and voice sounded weak, "Clara?"
"There's Candra news."
Seeing Jasmine like this, my heart ached. But Candra is
her son, so I have to tell her about Candra's condition.
Jasmine's calm eyes suddenly widened, "She...."
That's the mother-daughter relationship. Jasmine must have had a hunch, her face
turning deathly pale, his eyes were shocked and gelisan. One hand is in
her chest. He looked afraid I'd say bad news.
"He ... he's in intensive care."
I can't stand the pain of women in front of me, but I have to
tell him about Candra's condition. She is the mother of Candra
and he deserves to know.
Jasmine suddenly closed her eyes, then took a deep breath.
When he opened his eyes again, his eyes became firm, "I see, I understand,
you get out first."
Obviously he felt sad, but he suppressed his chaotic emotions
in such a way. This is what Jasmine looks like.
I came out of his bedroom without saying anything.
Ten minutes later, Jasmine came out. He didn't call me, he
the driver drove her to the hospital alone.
I sat on the bed in the bedroom worried and agitated. Denis goes up
into my lap and asked anxiously, "Mom, is Dad sick?"
I hugged Denis, then pressed my forehead against his forehead and cleared my throat
slow down.
Denis suddenly cries, "Mom, Denis doesn't want me to be sick, Denis
want Daddy. Denis wants me!"
I was sad to see Denis crying and pensive. I put him down, though,
"Darling, get changed, we'll go to the hospital."
Denis quickly put on his clothes and walked out. I've packed up.
We'll be at the hospital soon.
The thing that surprised me was that there were two policemen standing outside the unit
intensive care. Rinaldi stood outside with furrowed brows and did not know
what to do. Bherta grabbed the police clothes and cried, "Candra,
how could Candra be like this? What did you guys do to him?"
Although she is not the birth mother of Candra, Bherta's love for Candra is
tangible.
Hendra was there too. When he saw me coming with Denis, he,
he walked closer. I saw his tall body approaching, subconsciously
my hands clenched tightly. I was afraid to hear bad news from his mouth.
Hendra sighed and looked straight into my eyes, "I have
classmate who became a cop. She said when Candra disappeared, she
get into the drug cartels. The police used the clue he gave and succeeded
intercepting those illegal drugs. They also managed to catch the
crooks. But their chief who was behind the scenes, Joan ran away
self."
I stood there in shock, when did Candra become a police spy?
Hendra said, "There's still a lot of information on the matter. I
will tell you later. Candra's in a coma now. You can go
see it, but the doctor may not allow it."
After Hendra finished speaking, he stepped aside, but I didn't move.
My mind became chaotic and many mysteries enveloped my head,
to make my vision blurred.
In my view, the police who were arrested by Bherta patiently
explaining, "Auntie, don't worry, our captain will explain to
you and uncle on Mr. Candra's matter. Just wait patiently."
While speaking, the door of the intensive care unit opened, Jasmine and
a middle-aged policeman came out. The middle-aged policeman's face was sour, though,
while Jasmine's eyes showed signs of crying and her mood
not very well.
Denis called her grandma.
Jasmine was about to come, but Bherta grabbed her arm, "You? Why
you're here? How do you know something happened to Candra?"
Bherta glanced back at Rinaldi while gritting her teeth and
he said, "I know you're still communicating. It must be Rinaldi
telling you, right? You fucking bastards!"
Bherta raised her hand and slapped Jasmine in the face. Jasmine is not
dodged. He was beaten until he grimaced softly.
Denis yells, "Grandmother!" Then, Denis stretched
calf and run there. The little boy stretched out his hand to
protecting Jasmine and asking Bherta angrily, "Why are you
beating grandma? You are a bad man! The witch!"
In Denis's mind, those who beat people up are not good people.
They are all witches in fairy tales, especially Bherta who once was
his own head Bherta beat up Grandma Jasmine who loved him the most. Denise
very angry.
As soon as Bherta saw Denis, she became even more angry, "You're the kid
haram's! Move over!"
Seeing him scold Denis bastard, I was about to go and fight
mouth with. However, Rinaldi had already grabbed Bherta's arm, "Enough, enough,
it wasn't me who told Jasmine. He came here himself and did not
scolding Denis bastard. He is the son of Candra. My granddaughter!"
Rinaldi is always friendly. Even when angry until his body trembled, he
don't hit anyone or say dirty words. He just
warned Bherta with his expression.
Bherta snorted, "You said you didn't call her, how
he knew that Candra had an accident? Not the police
secret it?"
"He didn't call me. I came here alone. You didn't
need suspicious. Rinaldi and I have been strangers for a long time."
Although Jasmine's voice trembled, she was not angry because of Bherta's slap.
Bherta takes care of Candra and loves her very much. Jasmine was truly grateful
love to Bherta.
Bherta snorted, then turned her face away and stopped talking.
Rinaldi lowered his gaze towards Jasmine, "Sorry."
Jasmine said nothing. He just grabbed Denis' little hand
and walk towards me.
This joke is finally over and I'm still standing there deep
absentmindedness. My legs are as if they were plastered by lead, I can't
control it at all and I can't think straight. Why Candra
being a spy for the police? Didn't he work with Joan? Isn't that
she's always scared of Joan?
What exactly happened?
Jasmine said in a low voice, "Candra is still in a coma. Physicians
not allowing family members to come to visit. Earlier, I also
ask someone to help me. You guys come back with me first."
After Jasmine finished speaking, she walked away holding hands
tiny Denis.
I followed Jasmine in a daze and left the hospital.
On the way home, Jasmine always looked glum. Denis sat in
beside her and using her small hand rubbed half of Jasmine's cheek
beaten by Bherta with attention, "Grandmother, is it still sick?"
Jasmine shook her head and gently pulled Denis inside
his embrace, "It doesn't hurt anymore. After seeing you, everything was direct
improving."
In the spring streets, large cherry trees bloom with
the flowers are beautiful, but the riddles in my mind are tangled up like threads
tangled.
Cindy called. He was also surprised by what happened to Candra,
he said, "I can't believe Candra actually became a spy for
trooper. It seemed like from the beginning he had already planned the matter of the resort to
gain Joan's trust and frame her, then make her fail. Him
got Joan to take the risk and get arrested by the police."
Cindy's words woke me up from a dream. Even though it's only
guess, his words made sense. After Cindy hung up, I
silently gazing out the window with a chaotic mind.
When I got back to Jasmine's apartment, I took Denis to the dining room
to eat and Jasmine went straight upstairs. While eating, Denis cries,
"Mom, are you going to die?"
I fell silent and quietly caressed my son's head.
Denis jumped into my arms with tears in his eyes, "Mom,
I know people in Canada who wear big chicken clothes, people who
wearing the Monkey King's clothes, the uncle who asked me to guess the riddle in
Lantern Festival, they're Dad."
My head feels buzzing.
Denis hugged my waist. She kept crying in my arms,
"Mom, they wear different clothes, but they're dads. I
remember the temperature of his fingers, they wear different clothes, different faces, different faces,
but his fingers had the same temperature. But, that last Monkey King
not."
I was stunned to hear Denis talking while crying in my arms.
My mind is completely empty. Denis' mind is sharp, but I'm not
thinking that his mind was so sharp that he even remembered the temperature of his fingers
Candras.
Maybe because Denis wants it too much, so he can
clearly distinguish such details. Suddenly I remember on the streets of Vancouver.
When the man dressed as the Monkey King asked me to give him a hundred Canadian dollars,
we met the man in the Monkey King costume. Denis stood up
in front of the man, but suddenly he was crying.
He said he thought it was Dad.
Maybe he touched the guy's hand, but he didn't feel the temperature
that same.
I hugged the little boy tightly in shock. A very strong feeling
complicated churned in my chest, but I couldn't say anything.
Three days later, I received a call from Hendra. He said we
you can go in and visit Candra. I took Denis to the hospital.
When we got into the intensive care unit, Candra was still asleep. Facial
the handsome originals looked pale and colorless. His body is full
with hose. Except for a stable electrocardiogram, there was no sign of him
still survive.
I sat by the bed and cried in silence. Is everything
for me and Denis? So, he took a risk and did a job that
most dangerous to the police. Is all his attitude that doesn't matter or
cruel is just a disguise?
Denis brought some paintings and stood next to Candra's bed
with tears in her eyes, "Dad, do you think my painting is good? Is
look like you?"
The pictures in the little boy's hands were placed one by one in
next to Candra's bed. Candra's wearing a big rooster costume, Candra
wearing the Monkey King costume, Candra is wearing a monkey mask
Candra whose fingers have the same temperature.
Denis said in tears, "Dad, actually, Denis was a long time ago
they know they are all fathers. When Denis fell asleep that day, Dad was gone
meet Denis."
My mind was buzzing again, when did Candra go to see Denis?
Denis turned, "Mom, actually Dad went to see me that night, but
I closed my eyes and did not dare to open them. I was scared the minute I opened
eyes, I'll go."
I closed my eyes and remembered the day. Denis tilts the corner
his lips were in his sleep as if he were dreaming beautifully. It must be that night, Candra
go see him, don't you?
However, I don't even know.
My chest suddenly felt uncomfortable. I got up and walked out
intensive care unit quickly. I stood in the corridor with my hands
on the wall and suddenly I couldn't help but cry.
"You know now, Sister Candra is working hard for you and
Denise." I don't know when Gabriel walked in here.
"To protect you and Denis, Candra intentionally
stay away from you, approach Stella and risk bankruptcy to
developing a resort with Joan. He loosened Joan's vigilance and
got into Joan's dark organization. He also became a police spy
to get Joan punished. To get you and Denis back
to his side as soon as possible."
My mind becomes that. At that moment, the world turned around. I
leaning my body against the wall so I don't fall to the floor.
Candra, I finally know your good intentions.
