"He doesn't look like you."
Alora's smile rattled to the words of Dimas. Alora was very happy to see Dimas as he is now. Dimas who came with good intentions to meet with himself and his son.
"If you grow up.. Don't be like your papa. Seizing someone else's possession," Dimas continued.
"I'm not going to educate him like that, Dimas. You take it easy" Alora said.
Dimas nodded his head. She was very sure Alora would not educate her child like that. Dimas's steps drew closer to Alora. He also gave Radeva to Alora and sat back on the sofa in front of Alora.
Dimas smiled faintly at how Alora was fondling Radeva warmly. She was so happy to see Alora become the mother she is today. Dimas remembered very well that Alora wanted to educate her child well, she did not want to educate her child like her parents did. Remembering Alora's small wishes that began to materialize made Dimas feel happy. Even if he is not the one who creates that desire.
"I'm glad you can finally hold your own child, Lora. Your little dream has finally come true."
Alora's gaze was fixed on Dimas' face which looked very sad. He knew Dimas was not as happy as he said. Dimas simply closed his grief by saying so.
"Sorry Dimas.. I broke my promise. I shouldn't have promised you that."
Flashbacks
"You're doing a baby carrier-like stuffed sling. So strange!"
Dimas looked at Alora who was weighing a teddy bear like holding a baby. Alora was even looking forward to another sleep for the doll.
"I'm learning to know! Later if we have children, I'm not stiff holdnya."
Dimas laughed at Alora's reasoning. He walked up to Alora and took the doll from Alora's hand. Reversing the doll back to the shelf in front of them.
"The same baby is different, Alora. You are quick to think of having a child. Whose father is it?"
"Yes you are! Who else if not you, Dimas? Your question is strange."
Dimas steps away from Alora. He left Alora still in place. Looking at Dimas who left her, Alora started to run a little to grab Dimas. After being beside Dimas, Alora immediately grasped Dimas' hand tightly.
"When we have a child, I want him to call you Dad and call me Mom. I don't want to have any children, Dim. Two aja... One girl and one guy. Girls look like you and guys look like me. Our son will be cute."
Dimas steps stop. Hearing Alora's words made her even more hopeful with the words of Alora.
"If I'm not the father of your son how?"
"It's impossible.. Listen yes, Alora Dwana promised to marry Dimas Saputra and they will live happily together with their daughter's son later" Alora said in a voice.
A faint smile was created on Dimas' face. Somehow he felt that Alora's words were very promising for him.
"Can I keep his promise?" asked Dimas doubtfully.
Alora took Dimas' hand and clasped Dimas's big hand. "Can" he said with confidence. The smile on Dimas' face was instantly created. His heart felt at ease getting the promise Alora gave.
"The promise is just a word. You can forget your words whenever Alora. I would be so happy if you could forget that promise. Seeing you happy now, makes me relieved and grateful. I don't know if I can make you this happy when we're together. Thank you for being so happy with your little family. Don't think about me, I'll also get my happiness later."
Alora's tears escaped from her eyelids. The sincere words Dimas said made him feel even more guilty and relieved. She was relieved Dimas did not blame her.
"Thank you for giving up, Dimas. Thank you for letting me go. I-i promise.. I will be happy together with this little family of mine" Alora replied as she wiped away her tears.
"This time... You must keep that promise. I don't want to have any regrets about letting you go" Dimas said.
Alora nodded her head. He and Dimas threw happy smiles at each other. Dimas turned his gaze towards Radeva. He really hopes Radeva will take care of this woman he loves. Because after Reinal, the obligation to protect Alora was Radeva's job.
***
This time it's different than before. Dimas walked upright out of Reinal's house. There is no sadness or regret from Reinal because she has let go and let go of Alora.
Dimas' steps stopped when he saw Reinal who was already standing right in front of him. Seeing Dimas stop, Reinal walked over to Dimas.
"I won't take Alora from you. From now on, Alora is entirely yours. I have nothing to do with Alora anymore."
Dimas stared at Reinal's stern face steadily. There was no fear or hatred in Dimas for Reinal anymore. Everything's done up here.
Reinal began to smile thinly and pat Dimas' shoulder twice. "Thank you for giving me Alora. From this moment onwards Alora will be safe with me. You don't have to give birth to anything about Alora. The woman we love, I will always be happy."
Dimas nodded his head. Now she understands why Alora's parents chose Reinal as Alora's husband instead of her. Dimas still does not deserve to be Alora's husband.modal love, Alora will never be happy.
"I believe you can do that. I'll always be watching you, Mr. Reinal. If Alora Adan is hurt or sad for once, I'll take Alora back from you!" Threaten Dimas to Reinal.
"I'll make sure it never happens. Because now, Alora's happiness is my top priority" Reinal said.
From a distance Alora stared at Reinal and Dimas with a full glance. He was worried that Reinal would do something out of his control. The last time Dimas and Reinal met, Dimas ended up in the hospital full of injuries.
But this time it seems different. Reinal smiled and walked away from Dimas. Alora felt a little relieved because of that.
The smile on Alora's face flashed as she saw Reinal approaching towards her. Reinal hugged Alora's body when she was in front of Alora. Not to forget the brief kiss on Alora's forehead was given by Reinal.
"It seems that this time I should get to know Dimas even more closely. He looks like a nice guy" Reinal said, releasing her arms from Alora.
"If Dimas wasn't good, I couldn't be close to him. Dimas is one of the best men I've ever known."
Reinal nodded her head, agreeing with Alora's words. "Now.. I want to meet and play with Radeva and her mother" Reinal said. Alora chuckles and they walk to Radeva's room to play with their baby.
Alora's gaze turned towards Dimas who was starting to move away from his courtyard. Looking at Dimas' back at this moment made Alora feel lucky to meet Dimas.
But Alora always prayed and hoped that, if there was a next life, she would not want to see Dimas again. He didn't want to know Dimas anymore. Because if they meet again in the next life, Alora is afraid she will hurt Dimas more. A good man he will always remember his whole life and maybe Radeva and his sisters will later know Dimas with the name of a good om who loves their mother.
