18 Years ago...
Aliya and Pratmana are newlyweds 2 months married but, unfortunately. Prejudice must accept the fact that his wife must give birth to a child that she clearly does not know whose child it is.
Aliya gave birth to a girl but, Aliya did not touch her baby daughter even, breastfeeding her she did not want to.
"Aliya, she's so beautiful."
"He's not your son, just throw it away. I wouldn't breastfeed that son of a bitch!"
"Isn't this the consequence? If you don't want to, let me take care of him."
"I gave him a name.. Aluna Pragya Admiral. Beautiful girl like moonlight."
DEG!
Aliya's heart ached hearing the statement of her husband who was very firm in naming his daughter using his surname. The emptiness in his heart was still clear. He felt very guilty because he had to do indecent things while with the old because of fear of abandonment.
"Why do you want to accept this child..? You clearly know this isn't your flesh and blood..?"
"Because for me.. This child was born out of grace. And destiny. Do you not feel sorry for him? He clearly did not understand what happened then, why should you hate him..? In fact, this kid looks a lot like you."
"Don't equate me with him, brother. I am not going to! Why do you love him so much?! Throw away. Give the boy to the orphanage."
Pratmana is patient. He began to bed Aluna and fondle Aluna with affection even though, Aliya did not give ASI, it does not matter. Pratmana can make formula milk and keep Aluna like a jewel.
"After this.. I'm goin. I don't want to go home with that fucking kid."
"Aliya's. Aluna is innocent. Does he know that you hate him? You giggle and kill him right now, he'll just cry and he'll be gone. Because what..? Because this helpless child is your flesh and blood. The result of your actions, and I have no problem with that. Rest, I'll take care of him if you don't."
Aliya ignored her husband's words. She went to bed and ignored her own baby. Fortunately, Pratmana has promised to look after and love Aluna.
"I'm sorry, Aluna.." Aliya's inner self closed her heavy eyes.
"Smart kid's sauna, sleeping baby? Tomorrow we bring the mother home, the mother must be tired," said Pratmana by kissing the face of the innocent Aluna.
After the Pratmana left, a middle-aged woman entered Aliya's room and folded her arms around her chest, "Wah-wah... Been born? Good though. Just throw away the bastard, Aliya. Fortunately, your husband is stupid" the middle-aged woman said as if without shame.
"It's all because of your fucking son! I never should have set foot in that fucking house. And you know what..? I will not be that cruel and to hate..? I do hate but I will not throw my flesh and blood away, mark it a fucking woman." Aliya cussed and stared intently at the woman in front of him.
Plaque!
"Bad you are, Aliya!" the snapping made Aliya to get hit because of the slap.
"My husband never threw his hand.. Who are you so brave to slap me..? I could've reported you on the charge of molestation!" threaten Aliya by brusquely shaking the middle-aged woman's hand.
"You better know your limits."
"You must know your limits, Wilona."
......................
The night was so dark and from home, Pratmana touched because Aluna was constantly crying for no reason and even, the crying made her unable to sleep.
Aluna stopped crying when Pratmana began to pet her and hold her until the next day, Pratmana left for work and left Aluna to the orphanage and took her when she came home from work.
Aliya fell silent on her bed by breaking her hair and hit a wall behind her.
"Neng, why?"
"Father. There you go, Aliya gamau see mom!"
"Neng, eat first. After eating mom out, yeah.."
"Mom... Why should the child..? Why didn't Aliya's husband just throw Aluna away and hate her? Obviously it wasn't his flesh blood but.. Why...?"
"Miss.. That's because Nak Pratmana is a very responsible husband. Lucky for tea can get her rich husband, I know what you rasain neng, just so this is all learning so next time.. Not making the same mistake, right..? Yehudah, now you eat."
"Aliya ain't hungry ma'am.. Why did that bastard continue to make Aliya uncomfortable..? Why is it always like this, Mom?! Aliya's tired!"
"Whose ngeyel and gamau were left behind..? Who used to fight parents just to follow him who..? Fortunately, Pratmana boy accept and want to be with you or neng, try not..? You have been treated with unworthiness. In fact, son Pratmana also does not matter the same as your problem, great right? Neng should accept fate, right..? It's not good to fight God."
Aliya sighed. He did not believe that he was wrong, but he was angry. "Neng, sometimes not all live according to the will of you, not all humans can live alone, slowly accept it..? All must have a silver lining" said Asih, Aliya's mother. Aluna's grandmother.
Aliya was only fixated on hearing every word her mother said meaningfully but..
"*You are obedient! Irrelevant.. The cave abayin lo."
"I - yes... Don't stay with me.."
"Yes. Gua ga will ninggalin lo origin it nurut same cave. Now diem."
And*....
"NO..!!! DON'T WANT!! GA GUA WILL NEVER NURUT THE SAME LO CAVE ─"
"Aliya, hey! Its me.. Why are you screaming? What dreams?"
"A - I was.. Minpi..."
"I understand. Just go to sleep again. We're in the car, if you play one house with Aluna, you stay in the hotel for a while. Preparing to go to Singapore, we are there and will return after Aluna has understood enough," Pratmana advised Aliya.
Aliya could only nod. He's dead-end. Can't resist, but he can't act either. In fact, to just get some peace.. The pratman who takes care of it all. The calmness that did not make Aliya feel depressed.
"It's up, get down and get your stuff. I will invite Mother to take care of Aluna, I accompany you because your condition is also not so stable," interrupted Pratmana cutting when Aliya was about to speak.
"Aluna took care of mom..?"
"Yes, I'll keep you company."
Aliya nodded with a thin smile. While Pratmana, he began to pick Asih up and ask for help so Asih takes care of Aluna sincerely.
"Oh, please take care of my son..? Don't hurt him."
