The Smile of Love for Anaya
SCUA - Bab 33
Gwen entered her daughter's nursery with a deeply broken feeling. How not? For three months, he saw his daughter helpless on the patient's bed with all medical devices attached to his daughter's body.
Gwen sat herself in the chair near the patient's bed. Gwen stared sadly at her daughter's situation which had not changed at all during these few months.
Gwen took something out of her bag, a hearing aid, and she put it in her daughters' ears. This is what he always does every day, hoping that Anaya can expose him.
Gwen held her daughter's hand tightly. He shed tears as he felt Anaya's palm so cold. “Mom, hope you can hear Mommy, Naya,” Gwen said as she wiped her tears quickly.
“Mom, don't be like this.” Aiden patted his wife on the shoulder several times.
“I just want to talk to my daughter who doesn't love her parents anymore. Look at him, so asleep from his sleep for months,” Gwen said in tears.
“If he loves his parents, surely he will wake up and hug us.” Gwen said softly and hoarsely as she held back her cries.
Aiden breathed his breath out violently. All this time he has been trying to be patient, stoic, and strong to face this ordeal. And right now he feels very fragile and broken. Aiden shed a tear, but he quickly wiped it.
Without them noticing, both corners of Anaya's eyes let out tears.

On the other hand, Gerald is currently in his home, with his parents.
“Rald, where do you want to go to college?” ask Mama Gerald.
Gerald looked up, staring at his parents in turn.
“Papa apologizes for being too hard on you all along. You want to be a musician, Papa will allow it,” replied the middle-aged man.
Gerald shook his head in response. “I don't want to be a musician anymore. I'm going to study at the business school, as you want,” Gerald said.
Gerald's parents looked at each other, they did not understand his son who suddenly changed his mind.
“Why did you change your mind? Hasn't you been so insistent on wanting to be a musician?” ask Papa Gerald.
Gerald did not reply, and the young man went straight from his parents to his room.
Arrive in the room. Gerald took his phone, then opened the photo storage gallery. Her lips thinned and both eyes glazed over as she looked at the photo of Anaya that she had secretly taken.
The beautiful girl who stole his heart. A beautiful girl who looks perfect. Gerald walked towards the balcony of his room. He looked up and stared at the beautiful stars in the night sky. Gerald's lips curled thinly as he recalled his memories with Anaya when he first met.
“This how it went up? I ‘kan wear skirt.” Anaya is confused when going up to the high Gerald motorbike.
“Bother!”
“Hey, you offered me a ride, why angry?!” nagel Anaya.
Gerald felt like laughing when he remembered the moment. From the beginning he was already interested in Anaya, because he thought Anaya was different from other girls.
Anaya has a very gentle and patient side. Her smile was so sweet, that Gerald's heart was always pounding at the sight.
But now, Gerald could not see that sweet smile anymore. His heart felt empty and devoid of spirit. Even he felt reluctant to continue his dream of becoming a musician.
