Episode 7's
This afternoon it was Geo's turn to keep his father in the hospital. He usually looks after his father at night. However, today he deliberately took home quickly from his job.
“Papa, Geo dateng.” Sapa Geo to the father who did not give any answers.
Asep has been in a coma for almost a year in hospital due to complications. Since getting out of prison, about twelve years ago, Asep was sickly and in and out of the hospital. But usually not to this coma.
Until one day, when Asep was going to pray with Geo, Asep suddenly collapsed and became unconscious.
According to the doctor, his father still has a chance of recovery. But to be honest Geo and Vienna, his mother, could not be too hopeful. What else is their economic condition is quite bad.
Back when Geo was a kid, they were pretty rich. They can do what they want.
After learning that it was money and Asep was imprisoned, Vienna would no longer use the money. So, he had to slam his own bones until Geo became an adult and could take care of himself. In addition, news of Asep performing the evacuation also spread in the neighboring neighborhood. So that their families become the subject of conversation even gossip until now.
“Why are we doing this anyway, Pa?” Geo sat down with a chair next to his father.
“Then, I thought we were so happy. Hiks..” Geo who was holding his father's hand started sobbing.
The 28-year-old man clasped his father's hand with both hands.
He is the most dear to his father. Even though the father used to do something unreasonable, Geo still loves him.
For him, the father that was in his childhood memories was the best.
When the fateful event occurred, Geo and Vienna also witnessed everything. They also know how Handi and Lastri died. He knew it wasn't his father who killed his own parents.
But would anyone believe it if they said that Handi and Lastri were killed by demons?
Moreover, Asep also insisted on surrendering himself and admitted that he was the culprit.
And the only hope is another witness. Ken, Sumita, and Dono. But after that, they seemed to disappear somewhere.
It was only seven years ago that Geo learned of their existence through television. Ken who became a famous singer has never been absent from television. Sumita is the CEO of the entertainment company that wields Ken and a number of other popular artists.
Then, if it was like that could Geo approach them?
When Geo learns of their whereabouts, Asep is out of prison. So, it is useless to ask for their defense in court. At least, what Geo wanted was for them to be willing to improve on his father's name. And they can live a normal life again without the scorn of the people around.
The clock shows at 13:12 when Asep suddenly had a seizure and the heart detection device in the room rang.
“Papa! Why pa?!” exclaim Geo panic.
Immediately Geo pressed the nurse call button near the bed many times.
Shortly thereafter, medics arrived at the ICU room with all the necessary equipment.
“Mr please wait outside first, yes. We will soon call.” A nurse told Geo.
Despite the panic, Geo complies with the nurse and waits outside.
He took a cell phone out of his shirt pocket. A quick call to call his mother.
“Mamaaa!” exclamation Geo.
“What's up, Honey?”
“Mamaaa cepet to hiks hospital.. papa convulsions... hiks.”.
Geo couldn't contain his cries. He was very afraid of anything happening to his father.
“Yes, god... Mama will be going to RS soon, Geo!” my mom panicked from across the phone.
He immediately hung up the phone call.
Geo sat in the waiting chair. Both of his hands supported his lowered head. He's really upset. He was afraid of losing his parents.
During a year of coma, his father had seizures many times. But this time it felt different. He seemed to know that this was not like before that could be dealt with immediately.
Geo sobbed sobbing without feeling ashamed that anyone would see him as weak as that.
There was a soft voice that he knew out of nowhere.
“Papa?” enforced head. He looked around every corner, to know where the sound was coming from.
The sound was even clearer in his ears, “Papa ask please take care of your mama if papa goes.”
“Gak, pa! Papa must take care of Mama! Papa will wake up!” exclaimed Geo while continuing to search for the source of the sound.
“Please papa, yes.” Said that voice once again. And that was the last time Geo heard that voice.
“Papa?? Pa?? pa!?” Geo called out the voice many times, but no one replied.
After a while, a nurse came out of the room.
“How is my papa, Bu?” geo asked the nurse.
“Dok, how's my papa, Doc?” geo asked again after the doctor in charge of his papa came out of the room.
“We beg your patience. We have to say sorry, because we have not been able to save Mr. Asep. We apologize profusely.” Obviously the doctor.
Geo can't say anything. Blurred vision. His legs were limp until he fell down in a tight position. Geo knew from the moment the voice came to him that his papa could no longer be with him. The normal life he had been waiting for for for a dozen years would never happen. And now he can only cry.

In the afternoon, the body was taken care of and taken to the funeral home to pray.
Some friends and neighbors started coming one by one. They paid their last respects to the late Asep.
“Papa you are actually a good person. Only his life path is wrong first.” Said a neighbor who had been friends with Asep for a long time to Geo.
“Thank you, Sir.” Sahut Geo to the middle-aged man.
The man patted Geo's shoulder gently.
“That's patient, yes.”
Geo could only nod slowly.
The other neighbors also said similar words in front of Geo. It was enough to make Geo happy, because it turns out there are good memories of his father in the eyes of his colleagues. Let some speak badly behind her back. Most importantly, Geo knew that there were people willing to pray for his father.
Outside, a new limousine stopped in front of the funeral home. From the car, three people dressed in black came out. A beautiful woman with long hair and two tall men.
One of the men was a person who was quite well known by the people in that place. Many were unsure of their guesses until the man walked near them.
“Wah, how come the famous Ken is here?”
“That's really Ken? That singer, right?”
“Waw... The original is so handsome!”
The dark atmosphere in the funeral home suddenly turned bustling with the hides of mourners.
Geo, who realized that, came out to see what happened. And his expression when he saw the three people was no less shocked as well.
The person he had been looking for all this time suddenly appeared in his house.
