When Love Is Present

When Love Is Present
Chapters 107. Grief.



The days turn around, Laras has finished his studies. Thanks to Vim's support his dreams for high school were achieved. Graduation was filled with joy. Laras wearing kebaya and toga uniforms greatness of graduates.


"Congratulations! Congratulations, dear, your study is done."


Coughy. A kiss from Vim on the Barrel cheek. Do not miss the bouquet of flowers given.


"Thank you, man. Learning will never be finished. My science is still a little."


"Yeah science can be anytime, anywhere."


Both celebrated the success of Laras


just two. Vian was left for a while and guarded by aunt.


"Eat again. It's...."


Vim spoons the cuisine of the sauces squid to Laras.


"Enough mas." The barrel closes the plate with both hands.


"This too, so that you may be healthy."


Vim adds baby kailan to the barrel plate. Laras lost quickly refused because the cooked vegetables had moved to his plate.


"Yaaa this is mostly."


"It was eaten first. I see your cheeks haven't gone up."


"Mass? Heloo mas I just finished giving birth and my body has not returned to normal. This cheek you said hasn't gone up?"


Even though Laras is trying to lose weight. After giving birth her body weight tripled. Quietly without Vim know, the diet barrel is not strict.


"But you're still pretty."


"Yes pretty. You see it from the side. My body is now 72 kilos!" The barrel closed its eyes with the palm of the hand.


"Just be wild. You're gonna breastfeed Vian and I still like it even if you're a bully."


"Oh my goodness .. slowly dong said it mas."


Vim laughs. Glancing to the right and to the left. There aren't many people in that place. Actually Vim was astonished as well. After each feeding, the laras will starve and look for food on the table. Fortunately, the aunt prepared a snack in their room.


"You don't think about diet right now because you have to breastfeed Vian and you have to eat a lot."


"Mild diet." Baras wants to know Vim's reaction.


"No, I can't." Vim pressed his words.


"Duuh .. that's it."


"Yes that. You breastfeed Vian and Vian must get enough food from milk."


"Then let's spend it. It's a shame that it's wasted."


"Well, that's smart...."


Not only is there happiness. The days that pass are full of happiness or joy. Laras gets the wholeness of Vim's love and vice versa.


Home from work Vim plays with Vian. Even though he only carried Vian, it meant a lot to him.


"Children papi, big later help papi ya."


Just a moment in Vim's sling, Vian's cry sounded.


"Kok cry? You're thirsty huh. Mommy!"


Vim calls Laras. Barrels don't show up.


"Patience of good children. We're looking for mommy."


Vim takes Vian up to the upper room. There Laras was cleaning Vian's bed.


"Mami nangis' son yes. Why sweetheart? Papi pinched you?" Barrel glanced at Vim.


"Thirst is possible."


"I'm susui mas. Vian's taking a shower soon. It's near time to bust."


"I'm preparing warm water."


Laras nodded. Then take off all of Vian's clothes. Lifting the baby to the bathroom. The barrel bathes carefully. Not wanting to make a mistake that could make Vian sick later. Vian's head, face and entire body were washed with water and soap. Vian's voice shrieked as water touched his skin.


"Vian you take a shower, son," said Vim. He watches out.


"Already mas. Towel please."


"Fresh isn't it... baby??"


Shower's done. Baras put Vian to bed. Vim doesn't mind alternating with Barrels keeping Vian at night. Change her diaper while peeing and wake Laras when Vian cries.


...•°•°•°•...


Dion mentioned a cooperation again. The next decision is in Vim's hands. Dion agreed to cooperate. Therefore his prospective partners wanted to meet Vim. Speaking with four eyes, he said.


Joel Vim's assistant arranges a meeting schedule at a hotel. There the new partner stayed.


Map ... tap.


Vim steps are steady followed Joel. They wait in the hotel's living room or lobby.


"Master has a message from the receptionist. You are welcome to wait in room 128. It's late coming."


"Joel's here."


"On the room, sir. Can take a break."


"OKAY. Let's go upstairs."


The two of them took the elevator and arrived at room 128.


Chequek. The door opened Joel.


"Who are you?!" Joel gasped to see a female creature standing not far in front of him. He looked at Vim in wonder.


Vim was surprised to see Joel. Vim says, "You look at me, Joel? Who's she?"


Joel replied, Yes, I looked at you. Why why anyway? But Joel just said, "Don't know sir."


Joel shut the door immediately. His chest went up and down looking at the woman's clothes. He rubbed his face. The woman's clothes were too open.


He felt bad for his boss.


"Jul!"


Joel shut the door and left. There's only Vim and the woman. Women with open clothes on the chest and high side hemispheres.


"Good night, sir. Goodbye to you."


"You who? Did I have the wrong room?"


"Master wasn't in the wrong room. Introduce me Shofia, sir."


The woman is in a weak-gurgling style. Raises his hand and Vim refuses to welcome him.


"Shophia? I didn't order you. Why are you here? Sorry I have no interest in you. You can come out!" Vim firmly.


"Someone ordered me Sir. Let's have fun."


"Don't touch me!"


Vim brushed off Shofia's hand on his arm. The woman tried to seduce him. Ignoring Vim's words.


"Aawws! Don't pretend to be Mr." The woman held on tightly to Vim. The part of his body that was poking touched Vim's arm. At the same time, a camera captured it from across the hotel. The face of Vim and the woman was visible from outside the window.


"Say who sent you?" Vim stared hard. The woman grimaced feeling Vim's grip.


Vim was aware of this situation.


"Say or you're dragged by the security guard."


"Let go!" Shouted the woman.


"It's foolish of you to refuse the honey I offer." The woman speaks figuratively.


"I don't need honey from you! Tell me who's the guy?!"


"I don't know Sir. I'm just getting paid." The woman put on a hard face. Asking for mercy Vim.


Vim releases the grip.


Rushed out of room 128. Blood goes up to the head. His face was red withstanding anger. In the lobby he called Dion.


"On! Cancel cooperation. I don't like. This must have been your partner, sending that woman to me. There's no but-but Di!"


"Gapain you go downstairs. Wanna frame me?!"


"Ti-no Sir. Forgive me. I didn't know the woman was in there. Someone set us up, sir."


"Suck!!" Vim snarling. Curious about the person who dared to send the woman to him. This must be a new partner. Vim origin guess. Vim passes out of the hotel followed by Joel.


"What dream did I have last night. My wife is more seductive than that woman."


Joel just kept quiet to hear the boss nagging. If Joel responds, he gets hit by Vim.


...🌾🌾🌾...


Pov Barrel.


Happiness is complete. With Vim I felt flattered, adored, more meaningful and underwent many changes. Vim gave me encouragement, strengthened me and the back of my life. I felt his love and attention. I can't pay back as much as he gave me. I just have love for him.


Happiness is more complete with Vian. The fruit of our love.


The flash back on.


I opened the door because someone knocked on the door. I hope Vim gets back from exercising. This afternoon he went with Dion for the sport. I haven't played with Dion in a long time.


"I'm going yes. Be nice with Vian at home" said Vim.


"Be careful, my mother" I said.


He looks great riding his favorite motorcycle. After that I went back to playing with Vian. I don't know why Vian became fussy that afternoon. His sleep is not slumbering. Wake up and cry.


I opened the door and it turned out that he was the man I knew very well - brother Edo. I feel unworthy to receive Brother Edo when Vim is not home.


"Ma'af brother, brother Edo did not participate in sports?"


"No. Barrel...where's Vian?"


"It's in my brother, why?"


"Aunt exists?"


"There was. I want to see auntie. Tell me if you want to see aunt."


"Yes, I'd like to see bi Am. Quickly call."


"good. Brother wait here huh. I'll call you."


"Yes. Hurry Barrel!"


I'm surprised Brother Edo asked me to call aunty sooner. What exactly is Edo's business with aunt. I'm going forward again with aunt.


"This is aunt, brother. What the hell are you talking about?"


"Wheel...Vim...."


Flash back off.


I stared at the white cloth that covered Vim's body. My head is dizzy and my eyes are hurting. For ten hours I cried non-stop. I remember after Brother Edo showed me a picture of Vim, my eyes clouded and darkened.


After I woke up from fainting, Brother Edo took me to the hospital. There brother Dion waited. Not long after, my mom and dad came. I haven't seen my mom and dad. My mom and dad had trouble coming to the hospital at night. It'sit's okay. Mami, papi and two friends are quite strong for me to face this.


An operation was performed. According to doctor Vim suffered a spinal injury. The accident this afternoon left Vim helpless. He is the one I love.


Brother Dion then said, Vim immediately came home after they finished sports together. Dion was still chatting with another friend.


Dion finds out Vim was in an accident after he came home on the same road as Vim was on. Long-rowed vehicles ahead. It was curiosity that made Dion stop. The accident just happened. Dion heard the story of people who were around the incident and how surprised Dion saw the Vim motor lying on the shoulder of the road.


Dion didn't find Vim. Dion immediately found out and asked the person who was nearby.


"Mr Sir's accident?"


"Yes right. Accident streak. It's right there the roll-roll falls down. Avoid that mother."


The father told me. Maybe he saw this. Dion saw people crowding down there. In a place lower than the highway. Dion down. He's looking for Vim. Maybe Vim saw the incident and went downstairs to help the crash victim.


Vim's not helping the crash victim. Dion turned pale when he found out that the body on the slope was Vim. Dion asked for help.


"Sir please lift sir! He's my friend. Please lift it up." Dion nervous.


A father said, "Let's pick up!"


Vim was rushed to the hospital and Dion asked Edo to pick me up.


I was right here. In front of my husband's body, which was now lying down, I remembered the last time he said goodbye. My tears are flowing again. God, what burden are you giving me. Too heavy to stifle my chest. The one I love is lying helpless. Not conscious at the moment. Give God healing.


Edo and Dion have not returned. Still faithful accompany Vim, his best friend who does not want to open his eyes. My whole body is limp. I can't stand. I want to embrace that body. Embracing gives her strength.


"Ras..stop crying." Brother Edo calms me down. My tears are flowing.


"Why is this like this, brother?"


"The patient one. Vim can heal." Brother Dion comforted me.


I'm not sure what they say.


"When we are happy.hiiiiks."


"Patience of Race." Brother Edo gives strength.


I'm resigned. Quiescent. What else can I do besides accept.


Mama was also hit. Keep sobbing on papi's shoulder. Vim his favorite son lay unconscious. I don't think about Vian anymore. My son was with my aunt at home. Milk water has not decreased since yesterday afternoon and gives pain in the chest because it is abundant.


"Chew..How about Vim, Pih?"


My mom is as anxious and sad as I am.


"Prophey to Mih. We wait."


Pov Author.


Everyone is waiting for Vim to wake up. All are silent with a sense that is difficult to express one by one. Dion leaned against the wall next to Vim. Edo is behind Laras. The barrel is near the foot of Vim. He rubbed Vim's feet. Mami and papi on the left of Vim.


And they get a shock when Vim's head starts moving slowly. Then his eyes opened slowly.


"Road," call Vim.


"I'm here mas."


"Mommy, papi."


"Yes Vim. It's papi and mami."


"You're Ed and Dion. Yesterday's...."


"Yes Vim. Spirit." Dion strengthens Vim.


Vim moving will shift his body backwards. He managed to shift his seat but he said, "My feet.Why can't my feet be lifted? On!"


Mommy's crying broke. Flood flood water.


"Bapy! Why feet?!"


"The climate!" Edo called.


"What's up?!!"


"Vim.your lower legs can't be moved."


"Aaaaaakhhhh!! Nooo! Noooo!!"


Laras crying. Baras couldn't bear to see Vim hurt. He wanted to go out of there but his shoulder was on Edo's hold.


"Stay here. Poor Vim."


"I'm useless. Nah! Mommy I want to die!!" Shouted Vim. He shook his head strongly. His eyes were soaked in tears. Only once did Laras see Vim so disillusioned by his circumstances.


"No Vim! You mami's son, you must be strong.hiiiiks."


"I can't do anything Mommy. I'm disabled hhhh!" Vim is weak. Her sobs are heartbreaking.


"All is the way of Vim. We can still try" said Papi.


"I'm useless. I'm useless."


Vim looked at Laras. Her net implied love but a moment later she turned her face away. My heart held tightness in his chest because he wanted to cry to see Laras.


Laras got up holding Vim's fingers but Vim was silent. Empty views.
