There's Only You
CHAPTER 66 - Want to Meet Aurora
"Then, now you must tell your wife everything, with nothing to miss. Meet him and talk well. Reassure him that you are innocent" Ghiani advised.
"Yes Ma. I will explain everything to Aurora. And I will never give up, to maintain my marriage" replied Alwi determinedly.
Ghiani was happy to see the determination and spirit of his son. And as a mother, she could only support and pray, so that the storm that was hitting her child's household could end soon.
"Yes, you better rest now. It's already night. You must have gotten tired?" Ghiani's words were answered with a nod of the head by Alwi.
Alwi enters her old room which has been unoccupied for years, ever since she became a singer and decides to stay in her own apartment. Alwi observes the dark luxurious room. The atmosphere never changes.
He rarely entered his room. The busyness of the gig made him unable to visit his mother often at that house. Especially after marriage. He had to split his time for his wife as well.
He still remembers the last time he went to that house with Aurora. They are still very happy, and spend time with laughter. But now all that happiness has been extinguished, by a mistake that occurred beyond his will. And I don't know when that happiness will come back to him and Aurora.
Alwi laid his body on the edge of the bed with a sideways position. He spread his hand out in the middle of the bed. It was as if someone was next to him, and he was hugging that person.
And who else could he have imagined if not his wife, who was currently still having to sleep in the hospital with feelings of anger and disappointment in him, due to misunderstanding. And he didn't know when the misunderstanding could be cleared up.
In a different place, in a hospital room. Aurora was curled up in her room, blankly staring and daydreaming. Lamenting the fate of his household that he thought was fine, but in fact it had faltered.
His feelings were mixed between anger, disappointment and longing that erupted. Her blood was still boiling when she remembered what had happened between her husband and Delia, so that her husband's seed could be in the girl's body. It was no longer in his body that he had failed to take care of.
Why did he have to experience all this? And why does it hurt so much? If this was a nightmare, he wanted to wake up right now. And he doesn't want to sleep anymore.
This was the worst nightmare of his entire life. The day she lost her husband's heartfelt love, that day she lost the child she so desperately wanted.
Aurora's tears spilled again lamenting the misfortune of her life. Crying the betrayal her mother once felt. And now felt by him.

Aurora is still very bad with what happened. Since yesterday he just cried and pensive in his opnam room, without eating or talking to anyone. Divia who always accompanied Aurora, tried to comfort and persuade her son to eat.
"You haven't eaten anything from last night. At least eat a little. So that you can be healthy again" Divia said gently while thrusting a spoonful of porridge in front of Aurora's mouth, which did not open her mouth at all to take a bribe from her mother.
"What is Ma for. Who am I healthy for? The baby I've been waiting for for four years is gone now because of my negligence. And I have to accept the fact that the one who is currently carrying a child from my husband is another woman. A woman I trust a lot. A woman I trust a lot. But he could do all this to me. What else am I living for? I've lost everything. I no longer have a reason to live"
"Aurora! What the hell are you saying? You want to end your life because of that woman? Because of the husband who betrayed you? Don't stupid. Don't let them destroy you. Come eat" cried Divia with a sharp and firm look.
Aurora was silent and sobbing. But he still did not open his mouth, to receive a mouthful of porridge from his mother's hand. Until making Divia back to sound firmly.
"Aurora" Finally Aurora opened her mouth and chewed on the porridge. Although he was not tasteful to eat, but he tried to spend the four mouthfuls of porridge, because he was reluctant to hear the nagging of his mother.
Aurora fell asleep after taking the medicine. Divia covers her daughter's body. He only realized Arifin's presence behind the door, when Divia was about to walk out of the room.
Divia did not know when her ex-husband returned to the hospital, because he was too busy accompanying his daughter. Divia looked at Arifin in annoyance.
Although she knows that her ex-husband is very worried about their son. But still the blood still feels boiling, if you remember what happened between the child and their daughter-in-law.
The Divia looked back at Aurora who was fast asleep due to the effects of the medicine she had just taken, before she walked towards the door to see Arifin.
Arifin flinched as the door opened, and the Divia looked at him with a domineering look.
"How is Aurora? It's getting better....?" Arifin asked in a soft voice. He tries not to be swayed by the attitude of his ex-wife who is burning emotions.
"You still care about him?" The Divia asked coldly while holding hands.
"What are you talking about Divia? She is my daughter. Of course I care about him...."
"You said you cared about her, after what you did? Don't forget Arifin, you are the one who supported this marriage the most. From the beginning I doubted Alwi. But you blame me. And calling me selfish because of our past problems. And now that we've seen it for ourselves, all my worries are proven. It turns out that your favorite daughter-in-law, it makes no difference to you" Sela Divia was sharp.
"Divia...." Arifin was about to answer, but suddenly his gaze was diverted to another direction which made him stunned.
Curious, Divia follows the direction of Arifin's view. His blood was boiling again as soon as he saw who was in front of him. A daughter-in-law who cheated on her and hurt her beloved daughter. Alwi approached her pair of in-laws.
"I know I've made a very big mistake Ma. And I deeply regret my actions, which have been unable to contain myself. Mama can punish me at will. But please let me meet Aurora. Please let me solve our problems as husband and wife" Lirih Alwi pleaded with a flat face while gluing a pair of palms.
"After what you've done, you still don't feel ashamed, calling yourself the husband of my daughter?" Saying Fiery Divia.
Alwi fell silent and did not say anymore. He realized that all this was the result of his own mistakes.
