Miranda looked at El who was asleep, with a pounding heart she observed El whether there was still a visible breath in her body.
"Thank God he's not dead" Miranda said, for some reason now she doesn't want El to die. He got ready and rushed towards the old woman's house. He wants to see her once again but not to kill El, but rather to ask for an antidote for El's poison. Although his body feels unhealthy, but he does not have time to procrastinate all his intentions. He was afraid that something would happen with El, considering that the poison given every day was only a few drops away.
Before leaving he looked at El at the door of the room.
"El, I'm sorry. I will try to atone for all my sins and wrongs. I hope you're okay, hang on I'll ask the antidote soon" Miranda glazed over. Guilt enveloped his heart. At the end of his fight to get rid of El, he didn't even want El to die. Sometimes the heart is easy to turn. Like hate and resentment that can turn into love and affection in an instant. Yes that's how Miranda's heart is, thankfully she realized everything before it was too late.
After going through a difficult terrain, until Miranda in the old woman's hut. It felt like he had just asked for the poison, but who would have thought he was now there to ask for the antidote. Maybe the old woman will be angry with him, because of his plan. But he doesn't care anymore, now El's safety comes first. The safety of his fake sister who is now considered his own sister.
"Tok Tok" Miranda knocked on the door slowly with a pounding heart, fearing that the old woman was angry. How creepy his face that chewed betel nut as if his mouth was bleeding because it sucked human blood.
"Come in" The old woman said from inside the house.
Miranda slowly pushed the wooden door.
"What's the matter you came here for?" The old woman looked at him sharply
"Do you doubt the poison I gave you? The poison stayed a few drops, believe me exactly at twelve noon he will die hahaha" The old woman laughed, adding to the serenity of her face.
"Deg" Miranda gulped, tears began to pool in her eyes.
"That helps me" Miranda hugged the old woman's knee. The old woman was shocked.
"What are you doing? Whatchu mean?" He looked at Miranda with a surprised face.
"By helping Me, I changed my mind. I don't want her to die hysterics" Miranda cried pleading with the woman.
"Why did you change your mind?"
"That I have done all the conditions you have commanded. I did good to him by pretense. But over time my feelings turned real. I really loved him as my brother. Now that I realized he loved me too, he was willing to just eat breadcrumbs to give them to me. He was willing to lie to cover up his hunger so I could be full. Hiks hyks" Miranda's tears fell, she remembered El's thoughts on her. She's just an innocent girl who's being used for revenge.
"Bah, I just want to give my sister a cure. I don't want him to die, it's not too long. Twelve o'clock in the afternoon he will breathe his last. I beg you, grant me the antidote, I don't want to lose my brother. I really love her" Miranda's tears were pouring out.
"Hahaha you stupid girl, what antidote will I give you. The poison was just plain white water that I put in the hahaha bottle" The woman laughed out loud
"So Mbah means" Miranda stood looking at the old woman with sparkling eyes.
"I had predicted this to happen, I knew you would come begging for an antidote. So I'll just give you some water. I also put forward the condition that you do good, so that you really believe that hate and love can change in an instant. But if I give you poison, then you live in regret that will never change until the end of your life" The old woman stared intently at Miranda.
"Thank you, I'm a bad woman. I deserve punishment for what I did." Miranda was sorry for what she did. It turned out that living in a grudge was exhausting, she was like carrying a pile of rotten potatoes everywhere.
"The wicked woman will not cry asking for the antidote and admitting herself wrong. Your heart is only shrouded in a cloud of resentment. One day the cloud went out your true heart came out. Go see your sister, she won't do anything" The old woman smiled.
It turned out that the old woman was not so creepy, she just never smiled in front of Miranda.
"Alright Mba, thank you" Miranda stepped up with a relieved heart.
"One more thing, make amends for your mistake with him. Return her to her husband. Don't let you regret it later" The old woman warned.
"This old woman knows everything about El" Miranda paused for a while and continued her steps again to return home.
"El, I really hope you're okay. If anything happens to you I really can't forgive myself forever"
Miranda looked at the rising sun with a heart of anxious hope.
Miranda came home with a heart of relief, although her body felt very tired and tired. He leaned his head in a rickshaw staring around him. He recalled what had happened, but they were not wrong. He was fired because he was unprofessional and had violated the code of ethics at work. While his brother diego went to prison for kidnapping and trying to rape El. Even his brother had mistreated the poor woman, it was only natural that he would now pay for what he had done. "El forgive me. I'm really sorry" Miranda muttered inwardly. Not only did he feel, but he was terrified. He was afraid that if El remembered his past, El would hate him. Nor does he know what Erik will do to him, will Erik kill him alive? Erik would be furious if he knew Mirandas had hidden his wife.
"Lord, help me, what should I do? I'm sorry I've become evil"Sad his heart. She felt her home journey had become so far away, due to her impatience to meet El and make sure El was okay.
" El I will make amends to you, I promise" Miranda's heart said, as if she wanted to reduce the amount of regret that now squeezes her. She wants to live her life like it used to, living as a tough girl full of struggles. Not a vengeful girl full of crime.
