After the feeling Rifki returned to calm as before made himself establish himself to come to the forest to meet his Papa, he said, akhinya himself ventured to meet with his Papa after so long the two never met let alone chat during this time, Rifki immediately rushed to the place where his Papa asked him to come.
After a long journey to the forest by riding his favorite motorcycle, not long after finally Rifki arrived at the edge of the forest, the, Rifki parked his bike among the thick shrubland that was on the edge of the forest so that no one knew of his arrival to that place.
Silently, he entered the forest while covering his face with the slayer he carried and covered his head with his black jacket.
"Don't let the bad guy see me hanging around here right now". Guman Rifkis.
With Rifki land slowly entering the forest, so as not to attract the attention of people who were guarding the place, Rifki entered the forest with a very careful heart and occasionally he hid behind a bush.
Not only the forest that is famous is very haunted because many supernatural beings who become residents in that place, but the people who stand guard in that place will not hesitate to kill anyone who comes to that place violently except the people they know as their superiors.
In the middle of the trip Rifki can see some people who are traveling around the place, and some of them are hiding behind a lush bush.
Rifki stared at them while keeping watch so that he was not known by the people who were in that place, slowly Rifki land walked to approach the Red Rose village.
After a long walk into the forest alone, not long after that someone who approached him arrived and pulled his hand to go to a place that was quite foreign to Rifki.
That guy didn't just pull Rifki's hand, either, but by locking his hands so that he can not move and the person also did not forget to shut the mouth of the Rifki so as not to scream and lure all the people in that place.
The man took Rifki into a cave that no one could ever enter and the place was quite hidden from the outside world.
After reaching the cave, the man immediately released his hand lock from Rifki's hand and released his hand grip from Rifki's mouth.
Rifki as soon as possible to stay away from the person after learning that the person has already released him from the lockdown.
"Who are you? Why did you bring me here? Whatdoyouwd?". Ask Rifki after arriving at the destination of the person who brought Rifki.
Without Rifki realizing that he was already in a cave that he had never seen before, the cave was none other than the place where Prince Kian hid long ago.
The person who brought Rifki to the place did not answer the question from Rifki, but the person instead lit a small torch that was already there to illuminate the inside of the cave.
"Papa". Rifki say quietly.
When the small torch was lit, a familiar face appeared to Rifki, the man smiled at Rifki but the facial expression that Rifki showed was different from that of the man.
"Are you so angry with me, son? Until you don't smile when you see me in front of you right now". Asked the man who was none other than Haris, his biological Papa.
Rifki takes her eyes off her Papa, as if this would be just a dream that Rifki doesn't want to experience, somehow she feels right now, angry, disappointed, upset, happy, happy, sad to be one and difficult to express in words.
In the cave is quite wide and the sky cave is quite high, but seeing the state of the cave can Rifki shoot him that the cave has been long enough to live because of a lot of firewood, Rifki said, survival gear and a bed to sleep in.
Rifki did not expect that her Papa would take her to a place like this, let alone in a way like a prisoner who was forced to go to a place like this.
"You're this big now, son, when you were a kid you always complained to Papa and poured all your feelings out on Papa, papa used to feel very happy at that time because he could see you grow up until now, you are so handsome and very strong".
Rifki was simply unable to get the word out she said to the figure of the man in front of her at the moment, so she could only keep quiet while listening to what her Papa had said to her at this moment.
Seeing his son who was silent and expressionless made Haris feel that what was said by his wife was indeed true that Rifki was angry with him at this time.
The Princess told Haris that the Princess had argued with Rifki because the Princess who arrived to discuss Haris in front of her child, it made the Princess feel that her son was so much hate the figure of her Papa.
It immediately made Haris feel very sad when he found out that the boy hated him very much, although the Princess several times persuaded Rifki not to hate the Papa.
"I'm sorry Papa Nak, Papa was unable to accompany you to grow up all this time, Papa has no other choice at this time Son, Forgive Papa, allow Papa to hug you Son even if it's only for a moment". Haris.
When Haris wanted to touch Rifki's hand, Rifki immediately turned her hand, seeing her son's hand that did not want to be touched by him made her only able to resign with anger from her son.
Indeed it is his fault for leaving his son all this time, but he had no choice but to do so, because for the safety of his family.
"Originally you know, son, if Papa could choose, Papa would rather die than have to see yourself so angry with Papa like this, it's all Papa's fault, Papa, it's all, because Papa is so weak and Papa is so willing to leave you". A tear fell on his cheek.
Hearing Haris's words to him, making Rifki also shed tears, he so desperately missed the figure of his Papa but his disappointment made him unable to defeat his own feelings.
"It's good that Papa has been aware of the mistakes that Papa has made to us, as long as Papa knows, I've always been waiting for news from Papa all this time, but why has Papa never told us? I thought Papa had forgotten the three of us, I was so angry with Papa, Papa had no feelings at all, Papa never understood how we felt all along". Rifki said without looking at where Haris was.
Haris is only able to listen to Rifki's words with great guilt to his son, all this time he always hid it from his children and who knew his purpose was his beloved wife who every day he met with silence without the knowledge of many people.
"I'm sorry Papa, Papa's wrong son, I'm sorry Papa has left you three in this way, all Papa Nak's fault, you have the right to be angry with Papa, hit Papa Nak, hit Papa Nak, if you also want Papa's life, then take Papa willingly to give it to you, Papa just won't be able to see you angry like this to Papa, forgive Papa, forgive Papa, Papa knows the mistake Papa made is very difficult to get an apology from you".
"You know that this mistake that Papa has made is too great for you, son, and even the thousand apologies that Papa says will not lessen your heartache to Papa, so how can Papa make up for the mistakes that Papa has done son?".
"If I wanted Papa's life now, would Papa give it to me right now?".
Rifki's question immediately made Haris feel like he was struck by a lightning so powerful, but Haris was able to show a smile on his face.
Haris was more willing that he would die in his son's hands than to have to see his son so angry like this to him, for him the death was not so scary that he was afraid of just not getting forgiveness from his son.
Haris smiled so happy to Rifki who was in front of him at this time, because his son wanted his life at this time it means he will die in the hands of his son.
It was a happy thing for Haris, because he could die in the hands of his son, in the hands of his own flesh and blood in order to get forgiveness from his own son.
"If that's your wish then take my son, and if you have to die in your hand it doesn't matter to Papa, because Papa will be happy to have died in the hands of such a great son that you've seen, if you'd like to forgive the mistakes that Papa made, Papa would be sincere to give Papa's life to you right now, son".
"Then do Pa, I really want Papa's life for now".
"Do you really want Papa Nak's life?". Ask Haris again to his son.
"Yes, I want it so much, so give it to me right now Pa, if Papa really loves us three, then give Papa's life to me right now".
"If a child asks his parents, his parents will try to give it to his child". Haris said as he stepped towards where the survival equipment was.
Rifki looked at his Papa's face carefully, there was no doubt in the man's face, the man was so serious about his words and would do whatever origin his son could to apologize to him.
Haris held a knife that was sharp enough and taper walking towards where Rifki was, Rifki's gaze did not budge from his position or his face at all.
It makes Haris can only sigh because his son really wants his life, Haris closed his eyes and intends to scratch the blade of the knife his neck, Haris, without him thinking that it was not his neck that was scratched but the hand of his own son who was holding the blade tightly.
Sringg....
Before the blade touched his Papa's skin, Rifki immediately swung his hand to hold the blade and did not let the blade hit the neck of his Papa, he did not care at all about the pain he was feeling right now.
Although his blood was bleeding heavily, Rifki did not care about it at all, the blood dripped onto the ground where Haris was standing at the moment, Haris who realized that the knife he was holding was being held by someone made him open his eyes.
"Akhs...". Rifki sigh when feeling the incision in the hand because of the knife.
"What are you doing, son?". Haris said in a panic when he found out his son's hands were bleeding and flowing profusely.
Rifki immediately pulled the knife from Haris' hand, although his hand was now covered with blood, Rifki did not look at all in pain and even Rifki threw the knife far away from him.
Haris immediately grasped the hand of his son who was slashed by the knife, Haris could feel that his son was enduring the pain of the knife incision because Rifki's hand was shaking slowly by itself without the will of Rifki.
Hands that once looked healthy, now begin to turn pale because of the amount of blood that comes out through the hand, rifki's blood dripping onto the ground had partially started to freeze and the clump in his hands began to feel a little sticky and the rancid smell of blood began to smell.
"Rifki deserves it Pa". Rifki say quietly.
"What are you saying, son, why are you hurting yourself, forgive Papa, don't do something like this again, Papa won't see you hurt". Haris said, who grew more panicked when he saw Rifki shed her tears.
"Rifki can't be angry with Papa, forgive Rifki's attitude towards Papa earlier, Rifki deserves this kind of wound because Rifki has hurt Rifki's parents, Rifki's parents, he said, and now the frustration and disappointment in Rifki's heart is now completely gone along with the dripping of my blood is Pa".
Actually when Rifki met his biological Papa, there was a deep sense of regret for the figure of the man, he said, not only was the man who never told him but his way of taking him to this place was like a prisoner.
However, Rifki realized that the figure in front of him was his own biological Papa, hearing his Papa's words made Rifki feel guilty to his Papa, indeed Rifki did not know the reason why his Papa left.
But he did not want to regret at the end because he had hated his Papa for no reason of course, to eliminate his disappointment Rifki said that he really wanted the life of his Papa.
Rifki actually had no intention to say that to Haris, would still see Haris who was ready to give his life on the will of himself, he said, make Rifki immediately move his hand to block the knife that will slash Haris' skin.
Haris is the person most loved by his mother even though the two have never met all this time, Rifki will not let anything happen to the person dear to her mother even though it must be by dripping her own blood, Rifki will not let anything happen to the person dear to her, and after all that man is his own biological Papa.
"Why are you doing this, son? This was the decision that Papa had taken all along, so Papa had to endure it all himself, Papa can't see you getting hurt like this".
Haris tore the clothes attached to his body to bandage the wound in the hands of Rifki, by slowly binding the long cloth to the hand of Rifki who was injured by the incision of a knife.
"Papa must not bear it alone like this, however Papa still has family and we will always be there for Papa".
