The Limits of Patience for a Wife

The Love of Gantara

"Dad, is it true that what Grandma said is true?" ask Nabila, please, since then he still doubts whether what he said by Ambar is right or wrong because he knows all the facts are not true and the fact that he is the son of his father, gantara's father, not anyone's son. Especially a guy named Aditya. He had no idea who the owner of the name was.

Gantara sighed and tried to think calmly, arranging the right words so that his daughter did not hate him from all sides.

"Listen Nabila, if there are people who love Nabila the most is Nabila's mother, then father, we love Nabila very much, we do not want Nabila to hurt, cry or distress. Whatever we will do so that Nabila can be happy, now I ask, is Nabila happy to be a father and mother?" tanya Gantara made Nabila nod.

"Yes, Dad. Nabila is very happy, Nabila does not want to be the son of others other than being the son of Father and mother," he replied, a drop of tears fell from his eye sinks, he said, the shadow if his father did not love him and only loved his biological children had made Nabila feel very hurt and did not want if until it really happened in the future, as Ambar said.

"Until any time, until the father is not in this world, Nabila remains the father's son and the father wants Nabila also assume this father is Nabila's father until Nabila grows up later," said Gantara made Nabila back nod.

"Indeed, the father is not the real father of Nabila, the man named Aditya is the real father of Nabila. But, believe me even though this father is not Nabila's real father, but the affection of the father exceeds the affection of a real father to Nabila." Gantara wiped the tears that had dripped from his daughter's eyes that had been staring at him with teary eyes.

"If you love me so much, even though I'm not Nabila's real father, Nabila will always love me, but Dad why is Nabila's real father in prison, why did you imprison him? Is it true what Grandma said, Dad deliberately separated Nabila's biological father with mother so that Dad can be with mother, because Dad has a lot of money so Dad can imprison Nabila's biological father?" tanya Nabila made Gantara very surprised. Actually whatever was said by Ambar to his grandson so that Nabila can say as said by Nabila.

"Did Nabila want to know the truth?" tanya Gantara, if Nabila can catch all what Ambar said, Gantara believes Nabila can also catch what will be explained to him.

Hearing that Nabila nodded.

"But before I tell you everything, I want to hear everything that Nabila's grandmother told me."

What Ambar said at school, he remembers everything in detail what Ambar said. All this time he never lied to his father, making Nabila back honest. Even though Ambar has warned him if he can't say anything to anyone about them.

Gantara tightened his jaw, clenched his hands when he heard the story of Nabila which is all a essay. The writings that vilify him and also the Orange and consider Aditya the most correct and it is not justified by Gantara.

"Is there anything else she said?" tanya Gantara after Nabila stopped talking about Aditya to Nabila.

"Grandma said Grandma was going to meet me with dad, grandma asked me to meet her tonight outside the gate and Nabila had to sneak out of this house."

"Did he ask Nabila like that?" his tanyanya made Nabila nodded, making Gantara even more upset. He could have done that, whether he planned to kidnap Nabila again. 'No, he won't let that happen.'

When Nabila heard what his father explained, now he has two images about both sides according to their respective stories.

"Dad, can Nabila find Nabila's biological father? Someone wants Nabila to ask him."

"Alright, I will bring Nabila to meet with Nabila's real father, but I ask for one thing, never to see Nabila's grandmother again unless Nabila is with adults, such as mother, for example, father or grandmother, don't see him alone. If indeed Nabila wants to meet him anytime we will bring Nabila to meet him," said Gantara made Nabila nod and now he feels calmer

"Yes, now Nabila approached mother. Apologize to mom for making you anxious" said Gantara. Nabila nodded and came down from his bed, he ran up to Orange and hugged him. Nabila apologized to Jingga for worrying him, that afternoon Nabila also told him what had happened to him so far and what he had done with Ambar, he told his mother all the while Jingga also told him what happened in trouble always when they were still together with his biological father and grandmother.

Jangga wanted to close all the bad memories from his daughter, but it seemed because of what Ambar did, who made up the story as if he was the one who left them, making Orange had no choice but to tell her everything she had experienced in her father's apartment when Nabila was a child.

"I'm sorry, Mom. Nabila had misunderstood mom and dad. Nabila thought you guys deliberately separated me and grandma because they were just poor people and had no money," he said making Jingga just nod.

"When you promise me, don't keep anything secret anymore. If Nabila wants to tell stories, stories to mothers, think of this mother as a best friend and also a friend confided Nabila, now Nabila has grown up. Nabila can tell anything that Nabila feels to mother," he said made Nabila nodded and now hugged his mother. As they were telling the story, Gantara entered while holding Alif and called them to dinner.

When Nabila was back looking cheerful, they had dinner together. After dinner, Nabila went into his room as well as Orange and Alif.

Gantara kept an eye on Nabila, he continued to be in the living room, afraid that his son would actually come out to meet Ambar. Gantara was afraid if Ambar returned to take Nabila away from him. Every now and then Gantara peeked out from behind the window, whether Ambar's figure actually came to pick up his daughter or not.

Before long, it turned out to be true, he could vaguely see someone from behind the gate and he was sure it was Ambar. Gantara called the man standing guard at the gate to watch over Ambar and Nabila. He recounted that Nabila had been influenced by the woman who was outside the gate to meet him, Gantara asserted that not to make it happen.

"Good, Sir. I understand, should I throw him out?"

"No, pretend you don't see him, but keep an eye on him, don't let Nabila be taken by him."

"Well, sir," the security guard answered and Gantara passed to his daughter's room, slowly opening the door to Nabila's room, looking inside and found her already asleep. Gantara took the key inside and locked the door from the outside, he did not want to miss it until Nabila woke up at night and went out to meet Ambar.
