VENGEFUL SHACKLES
Adam Hill



"Isn't that your own choice, you selfishly chose cheating and what was the outcome? God punishes you and your child in the sad situation they are in today. Is there something wrong with my words?" joshep cuek.


"No, there's nothing wrong, right this is my decision, please scorn me, maki and swear me as you like, but never swear on my son and say this is God's punishment for him, he said, since you never know what's really going on and what's been going on all this time, don't let you regret it in the future!" paula said as she left Joshep's practice room with a broken heart due to Joshep's actions and also because of the fatherhood of her son who is still lying weak in the ICU room.


Paula had been looking for a loan all day, but no one was willing to lend her any money, even though the money for the cost of Kevin's treatment, which is still in the intensive care room, must be paid at the latest tonight.


It was difficult to ask for help from Adam, the man who has been known as her husband, father of Kevin because his son uses Adam's last name, Kevin Hill, and his wife, but after repeatedly trying to call Adam's number, Paula shut herself down to do that, not to the heart if she had to trouble Adam again and again, the kindness of a man who was 10 years older than him was innumerable, it felt like he had no face left to ask for help from him again and again.


Paula met Adam Hill about 5 years ago when she was just kicked out of Joshep and divorced for adultery and cheating on him with another man, on the same day, as she wants to return home to her parents, her neighbors tell her that her father, the only parent left because his mother had long since died, is now dead, recently taken to the hospital for a sudden heart attack, heartbroken by her divorce, she runs to the hospital to see her father, but when he had just arrived at the hospital and was about to meet his father who turned out to be in the treatment room, fate said something else, he found his father was no longer healthy when he entered the room, but when he just came and went to the emergency room, the nurse said that the father was stable and was already in the hospital room, but what happened was that all the views turned dark, Paula lost her consciousness due to the inner pressure that surpassed the limits of her defensive ability.


It may be true the saying, the ordeal never comes alone, this time the ordeal comes a tingle in Paula's life, because after being divorced with contempt, then losing the only parent she has, she said, and when he woke up from his stupor, the doctor gave him another surprise for his life.


Whether this is good news or bad news for Paula, which is clearly a way of life that must be passed, doctors tell her that she is two months pregnant.


The world seemed to collapse instantly, her father died, she had no one else in this life arena her husband had divorced her, and now in her stomach grew a fetus from the results of her marriage that was over, she said, how does he live his life?


Paula also believes Joshep will not want to admit and believe if the baby in his stomach is really his flesh and blood, so the option to tell Joshep about this is he scratched from his head. The options are only two now, either cancel or keep.


But all those problems must be removed because there is another more urgent problem, he must immediately bury his father's body, he said, but unfortunately he did not have the money to take care of the cost of repatriating his father's body from the hospital and also for the funeral costs.


Amidst her confusion at the administration counter, God's help came to her, a man waiting in line behind her came forward, and said if he would pay all the hospital bills for Paula's father.


"Please pay the lady's bill along with my wife's bill." Said the man whose eyes looked as big as himself.


"Have you determined where your father will be buried? Do you have money for that?" Asked the man again, who was answered with Paula's headband, he really had no money, he even only brought the clothes he wore when he came out of Joshep's house.


"It's better that your father be buried soon, if you don't mind, your father could be buried next to my wife who also just died, let me pay for all the funeral costs." Said the man who had just lost his wife.


From there Paula knew that if this man who was an irritable talker named Adam Hill, really she did not know the man before, Paula only considered if Adam was an extension of God's hand that helped her in the slump, Paula only assumed that Adam was an extension of God's hand that helped her in the fall, because behind the calamities and difficulties we face, God will also give us help from any door even from ways that we did not expect before as long as we are sure of His greatness.


Adam Hill was not a rich man, he was just a factory worker could have been, he had just lost his wife and child who were still in his womb because his wife had an accident, the insurance money and compensation from the impactor that Adam used for the cost of redemption of the body of Paula's wife and father, also including funeral costs, as well as Paula, as well as the cost of the funeral, Adam also had no one, he decided to go away from the city because he did not want to keep remembering his late wife.


When he found out Paula was pregnant and newly divorced her husband, Adam felt pity, he was reminded of his late wife and prospective children who he had not seen his face like what.


"Don't throw your child away, God may have a wonderful plan with your baby present." Adam said.


"I'm not sure I can make my son happy, let alone without a father for him." Lirih Paula's.


"Happiness you can create for yourself, because it comes from your heart, father problems for your child, let him know me as his father, maybe your son is a gift from God for me, in lieu of my dead son, don't worry, I have no evil intentions, don't misunderstand what I say, I still love my wife very much, and will never replace this place in my heart with any woman, consider me your brother, but let others consider me your husband to preserve your dignity and your son's so as not to be stamped son has no father." The description of Adam who managed to make Paula was filled with the kindness of the man who was even new to her.


From then on Paula decided to join Adam, to the island where she now lives, it's just that Adam works on an oil palm plantation on another island and only comes home once every three months to visit Kevin whom he already considers to be his son, his affection is not in doubt so Kevin is always proud to have a great father Adam.
