Love each other? If you love, you shouldn't hurt your partner, right?
I was stunned when I heard Aunt Meri's words. Again that reason. The reason I heard both from Sheryl's mouth and Baruna's mouth. Even now I have to hear it again from Aunt Meri's mouth.
"I know," I replied without being able to refute it because my phone suddenly just rang. I grabbed it from behind my pocket. Mama called. "Hello, Ma."
"A long time. Hurry back!"
"Yes-yes, Ma," I said, ending the call.
My gaze again led to Aunt Meri and Sheryl alternating. "Sorry, Auntie, Sheryl, I have to go. Mama's been waiting in the car too long."
"You're here?" asked Aunt Meri with a squeak on her forehead.
"Yes. Because I was just for a little while, he didn't want to get out of the car" I explained.
"Go away. Don't make your mom angry" Sheryl added.
I pulled out half a smile, then nodded. "You take care of your health. I'm going first. If there's anything, you can count on me" I replied.
No response from Sheryl. He looked clumsy to be among us. Just glanced his eyes at the mother-in-law quickly.
I-i understand. Sheryl just doesn't want this problem to get complicated. Quickly, I immediately turned around to leave the place.

Felicia Pov
I was alone in Rafael's nursery. Looking at the bald-headed Rafael for a while was soundly asleep. A second later, he turned his eyes to the nightstand near me. On it was a letter from the religious court. A trial call I've been waiting for. David finally gave up and fulfilled my request for a divorce.
Remember when we met last night. David handed it over without a word. It was very strange considering he was the one who was most against my request.
"You sure?" I went back to him shortly after reading the letter.
"Why should I doubt? Isn't that what you want?" He replied to her in a satirical tone.
"Yes, but not with Rafael. You should still be papa-"
"Oh, now you're sorry?" david asked with his raised eyebrows.
"No. I'm not sorry." I shook my head quickly.
"of course! That's because you found it. The man you've been craving for a long time." David's thin lips quipped so spicy.
"I have long had a heart for him."
David looked disappointed. "I just realized that love has been lost ever since you found the man" she said.
"Yes, and I know your feelings have changed."
"Change how? I never changed it, Fely," he replied.
"I'm not stupid, David! I know that there is another woman in your heart now" I said in a stern manner, recalling a female actress whom he had long admired.
David did not agree or deny it. He just shook his head and turned around. I took a deep breath, then threw it away quickly. Seeing his back drift away just like that without turning his head in the slightest.
"Ma ...."
I was shocked. The sound of Rafael spread my daydream.
"What's up, son?" I asked while putting a smile in front of him.
"Sick ...," replied Rafael, holding his chest, and then looking around the room, "Where is Papa, Ma?"
"Rafa is strong, son. Rafa will be cured." I looked sad at my son and smiled a little smile. "Papa went home for a while to the apartment. Papa's back in a minute." I tried to calm down, but David hadn't said that before. After giving the letter, he had not yet come to the hospital.
"Drink, Ma." Rafael turned to look at a glass above the nightstand.
I'm nodding. Immediately help my son to slightly straighten the body, then take a glass filled with water for him. Rafael drank it until the toilet was not left. Afterwards, Rafael settles down and falls asleep again.
"Smart boy," I murmured as I rubbed his hand slowly.
Back to the letter in sight. I immediately grabbed him and decided to leave Rafael's room.

Baruna Pov's
My gaze was on the phone I was holding. No messages or calls from Sheryl. I know for sure, he must still not be able to accept this reality. His attitude became cold and uncaring.
I glanced down for a moment. Some devices are attached to the neck to near the shoulder. Although I still feel pain in the neck and surrounding areas, I turned my eyes to the right side. Dad seemed to be sound asleep. We have been in one room since he was moved out of the intensive room.
I exhaled a heavy breath. Typing a chat message full of doubt. So many times I've typed and erased like a fool.
How's Sheryl doing now?
I can only move without any meaningful action. I was afraid that the situation he and our baby would get worse if his emotions soared.
A moment later, the door of the room opened without the sound of a previous knock. Felicia suddenly appeared and stood up, looking full of confidence. While smiling, he walked closer.
"How are you, Bar?" asked Felicia then sat on the chair beside the bed.
"Why did you come here?" many cold.
"Why are you still cold to me? Of course I came to take care of you and Om Anton." Felicia smiled then stretched out her hand to grab my arm. I immediately brushed it off.
"Look, yeah! Besides Rafael, we don't have any relationship!" my firmness.
Felicia grinned as she turned towards the nightstand. "You haven't eaten yet?"
Without answering, I looked. On the nightstand, there was a tray of whole food that I did not touch at all.
"You can't just walk in without permission here. You have no right at all. I can still take care of my father." I got annoyed looking at him.
"Of course you deserve! Aunt Meri asked me to take care of you and Om Anton as long as he returned to Jakarta."
"Ck! Mother ...." I muttered in annoyance. "May trust you like that."
"If you don't believe me, you can call your mother." Felicia replied in a slightly defiant tone.
I exhaled heavily, then turned my face away from her for a moment. "How is Rafael?" many finally. Like it or not in the depths of my heart, I began to worry about his health.
"Rafael is still under observation. It's not very stable, yet" he explained.
"Hopefully the situation stabilizes quickly."
"I didn't think you were worried about your real son."
"She's just a kid anyway" I said.
Felicia pulled her smile back. His vision then led to my father. "Your father ... How is he?"
I set my sights on. Dad fell asleep quite soundly when we did not lower our tone of voice in this room. He really needs a lot of rest.
"Father is stable enough," I said. Felicia nodded slowly. I glanced at something he had been holding since. "What have you been holding since?"
"This ...." Felicia glanced at something in her hand. He then gave it to me.
I cringed looking at him. An envelope of brown. I immediately opened the envelope and read the letter.
"David really divorced me, Bar. Now there is no place for me and Rafael to take shelter," he said softly with a sad look.
