They Say, I'm a Liar

Amarah Qeiza

It's been two hours since Ivander left Qeiza. The man has already done a complete laboratory examination. Ivander has also met Evelyn and completely ended his relationship with the woman. Ivander will no longer want to know anything about his ex-wife.

When his affair with Evelyn was over, the man ran along the hospital corridor. He wanted to see the condition of Qeiza immediately. What is the condition of the woman he loves, now? Has her lover realized?

Ivander smiled as he stared from behind the glass door, as he watched the idol become conscious. In the room there is the in-laws and children he continued who seemed to be shedding their worry about the condition of Qeiza.

Ivander just watched her from behind the glass. The man would have gone in there if Melati and Qiana had already moved out of the room.

“Qei is conscious, Van,” said Melati, as soon as the elderly woman came out of the treatment room.

“Iya, Mom. Ivan can see it from here. Qei's been around for a long time, ma'am?”

“It was from thirty or forty minutes ago. He was looking for you. Mom said you went out for a minute. I also said that I don't know where you're going, because you've been gone long enough, I'm afraid I'm wrong to talk. Come on, you're in. Explain the same Qei. He's been waiting for you.”

Ivander nodded his head. The man met his wife. Ivander immediately kissed the forehead of the woman he loved so much. She was so thankful that she opened her eyes.

“Thank God you are awake, dear,” Ivander said with a gentle smile. Qeiza who was still a little under the influence of an anesthetist, returned the smile with a sharp look.

“What is our child's condition, Mas?!” sniff the woman.

“I haven't seen our baby yet, Qei. I'll wait for you to get along. Later, after this, I'll go straight to our baby. She must be so charming like you.”

“Where have you been? I've been around long enough, Mom. But you don't exist. In fact, after disappearing for that long, you also did not see our baby?!”

“Sorry, Qei. I'll be there in a minute. I'll see our baby. Doctor says, our baby is healthy and funny.”

“No need, Mas. Take care of your ex-wife,” shrewdly Qeiza while looking at Ivander furiously. It was only natural that Qeiza felt indignant with Ivander's attitude. The man had ignored her existence and preferred to hold Evelyn to cause her blood pressure to suddenly rise and bleed.

And now, when she found out that she had given birth a few hours ago, but the husband had not visited their child, of course, making Qeiza upset half-dead to the husband.

What did the man do from now on, so that he could not see their baby? Ivander disappeared for a long time. Was the man having fun with his ex-wife?

“You don't like strange thoughts, Qei. I haven't seen my baby yet because I'm worried about you. So, Mas waiting for you to wake up first, after that just saw our baby.”

“Oh yes? But, when I came to my senses, Mas wasn't here? To where? Busy with ex-wives? If you are still in love and cannot forget it, just come back with him!”

Qeiza could no longer hold tightness in her chest. His tears were not stopped anymore. The woman's heart was so sick. It even overcame the pain of the surgery he had just undergone.

“Mas did a complete laboratory examination, Qei. After that, I met him for a while. She is currently sick—”

Ivander had not finished his words. Qeiza has already expelled the man.

“Go Mas!”

“Sayang ... Listen to Mas explanation first.”

“I don't want to see faces, Mas. Go!” drive out Qeiza once again. Ivander let out a heavy sigh. The man knew he was guilty.

“Before Mas leave, just look at our son once. After that go to the woman that Mas loved with all his heart!”

Ivander let out a heavy sigh.

Qeiza, who had been reluctant to see Ivander, turned her head and stared intently at the man. “How can I not cry if my heart hurts so much, Mom?! And, seeing Mas continue to be here, makes my heart ache even more!”

“Sorry, Qei. They're going to leave right now. Seeing the fruit of our love, after that back to the woman who loved very much,” said Ivander while peeping long forehead Qeiza.

Simultaneously, Qeiza's tears flowed even more profusely.

Is this the goodbye kiss that the man gave me?

“You are not too sad. Don't think too many strange thoughts. Remember, you just finished the operation. The condition of your heart and mind affects the quantity of ASI. Mas go first.”

After advising his wife and saying goodbye, Ivander left the treatment room. Qiana, who was sleeping on her grandmother's lap, was the first sight Ivander saw, as she walked out of the room.

The man crouched down, then stroked the child's hair. Qiana must have been very tired from waiting for hours in the hospital, Ivander thought.

“Sorry because Papa has already hurt your Mama, Qi.”

While stroking the child's hair, Ivander continued to apologize to Qiana, even though she said it in her heart.

“Ivan see baby first, Mom. He must be confused. Already born into the world, but no one has visited him,” said Ivander suddenly sad.

“Iya Van's. Don't forget to take a portrait of him. Later, say, if his mother has not fully recovered, so it has not been able to meet. Her grandmother was also holding her sleeping sister. The baby actually understands that we're talking. Later, say it like that Van. Let the mother's grandchildren not be sad,” said Melati.

Ivander nodded and smiled at the mother-in-law. With a rush the man headed for the nursery. Approaching the long-awaited baby. Not only himself who was waiting for the presence of his flesh and blood was born into the world, but also the Bratajaya family.

Ivander patted his forehead. Ah, he forgot to tell his father about the birth of the Bratajaya clan. In fact, because of the elderly man, he could marry Qeiza and have two children, at this time.

As he stepped up, Ivander reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone. The man contacted his real father. Tell them that their second child has been born into the world.

How happy Andrew was to hear the news. Even though it was late at night, the man insisted on coming to the hospital.

“Peapi is coming right now. This papi saw the little whiz's face!”

“It's been a night, Pi. Mending Papi rest at home. Tomorrow morning come here again. Qiana will also have Ivan tell her to go home. Poor sleeping in the waiting chair. Qeiza is still in intensive space. Not yet transferred to inpatient.”

Andreas almost cursed his eldest son.

“You booked two VVIP rooms at that hospital. Let Qiana sleep there before Qeiza is moved. The other room is for Papa. Later, Papa asked Ivona and her children to also stay here.”

“It can be so, Pi? This is a hospital, not a hotel, Pi.”

Andreas massaged his temple. “Already, let Papi's men take care of. Papi will order one floor of that hospital, for our family. Let more privacy.”

“One hospital floor? It doesn't have to be that way, Pi. Pity later who did not go to the room, Pi”

“Ivan ... Ivan ... Yes, said Viona. You are very happy to keep beg*. With money, everything can be done, Van. Let alone one floor of the hospital, the entire hospital could be Papi's rent! However, not many can book a VVIP room in the hospital. Already, you take care of your little family. The rest let Papi take care of.”

Andreas, upset with the naivety of the middle-aged boy, cut off the phone call unilaterally. The elderly man immediately contacted his assistant and asked his men to order one floor of the hospital. Andreas also told Ivona that his grandchildren could gather in the hospital to see the birth of the much-anticipated grandchild for a dozen years.
