Adrian came out of the small room which was his private room connected to his study. The anxiety he felt earlier had subsided, as well as his heartbeat that had returned to normal.
"Where's Daddy going? Why not take a break?" Dani glanced at the movement of the father who passed him just like that.
"Daddy is better. Take it easy," said Adrian justifying the location of his suit.
Dani stood up and approached the father. "Right, is it better?" ask Dani who is still worried. The young man held his father's forehead just as the father did when he was a child. "Daddy's not as pale as it was. Strange," he said in wonder.
"What's so weird? Daddy's right it's better Boy, just hold it." Adrian pulled the child's hand and placed the young man's palm over his chest.
Dani could hardly believe it. An hour ago, the father complained like a confused person, and now the man in his 40s is fresh as ever.
"Have you? Daddy's out first. All the work today you're in charge. If you need to discuss something, call Daddy," Adrian said, saying goodbye and waltzing away from the two men.
"Daddy?? As if he himself. Though I'm here for the holidays not to replace him sitting in this chair!" dani's annoyance at the father and also himself who refused too late.
Adrian refused to be driven by the driver. The man wanted to drive his own car.

"Can?" ask the foreign man who suddenly went into the room where Ara was treated.
Instead of answering, the woman looked at the stranger from the bottom up. Truly, Ara did not feel that she knew him, but the man seemed to know what he was worried about.
"Your body is missing, Doc." A nurse came in and helped the man wear a white coat worn by doctors.
"Sorry, who are you?" asked Ara who was suspicious. He can't trust a stranger right now, whoever it is.
The man approached Ara. "Make me Oryza." The hand outstretched in front of Ara was left hanging unreturned.
"He's Doctor Oryza Satrio, Mom.
Paediatrician who will handle your baby." A nurse explained who the man in front of Ara was.
Slowly Ara's hands stretched out, returning the handshake of the man who turned out to be the doctor.
"Can?" repeat it again. Oryza took off his hand, and put it in his suit pocket.
"Please if it doesn't bother you, Doc," said Ara resignedly. There was no man beside her at the moment. If you have to call Mr. Sapto, the one Ara even pity has to trouble the man again.
The eccentric doctor with glasses and hair dyed in blonde color was out in the tail by the nurse who would show the location of baby Ara.
While inside the room, two girls are awed by Oryza's doctor who they think is as handsome as Suga BTS. Moreover, his hospitality makes them both clamps.
"It's very handsome." said Sinta amazed by the handsome face of the young doctor who had just left Ara's room.
"It's right Sin. Geeznn .. Hopefully as long as Brother Ara is treated here, we meet him continue." Fatma who was also happy to see the handsome doctor until it was shadowed with her face. He did not want to lose to Sinta.
"Guns ... You're here to look after Ara, and she's home tomorrow anyway. Wear talk while being treated. Who wants to stay here for a long time," said Bu Sri with a soft voice for fear of being heard outside.
"Hurry up, brother. Doesn't it have to be a recovery? How about a day?" Fatma who was shocked immediately nyerocos in front of Ara.
"You guys. Normal childbirth is only one day. A few hours after giving birth, I was able to go to the bathroom by myself. If you want more, you're the one lying here, "Ara's fierce to the two pubescent girls in front of her.
"I want to!"
"I want to too!"
The two girls shouted in turn. Apparently they're really scrambling to stay there.
Bu Sri and Ara looked at each other. The absurd behavior of the two girls pissed them off.
"Then you have to give birth first in order to replace Ara here," said Sri's mother glanced at the two. His hands were crossed with a completely unfriendly face.
"Son, how are you? I'm sorry I can't keep you company when you need to." Ms. Fatimah came back after the lecture. He immediately trembled and limp when reading a message from Sri ma'am, if Ara was on her way to the hospital. Can not if you have to wait for Fatimah, because Sri ma'am already suspected if Ara's amniotic fluid has broken. And proved right.
The old woman immediately rushed and hugged Ara who was still lying down while crying to remember the hard struggle of giving birth without being accompanied by her husband.
"Ara is fine, Mom. Mother, don't worry. Granddaughter of a mother, beautiful and_"
"Very similar to her father, Mom," said Sinta who got a small pinch of Ara on her stomach.
"sickness, Brother. Chubby does look like his handsome father." Ara's heart was pinched hearing that. The little girl looks a lot like Adrian. Even she felt that the baby had nothing similar to her. What is the effect of what he does every night. Always harbored a longing with her husband, until finally the child was born even dominant face Adrian.
"Guns ... The sinta! " Mum Sri glanced sharply at the girl to make her silent for a moment. The girl who is always thinly clasped ceplos that reminds Ara of her best friend, Mela.
"Already, Mom. Later the mother's blood pressure can go up because of the two girls." Ara pointed at Sinta and Fatma with her chin. But actually, Ara's hand gently rubbed the back of Sri who was beside her. For the middle-aged woman to be more patient in facing the two.
Ms. Fatimah just shook her head with a review of an admirable smile. He certainly has been accustomed to years of facing the nature and attitude of children in orphanages consisting of various characters.
"Where's your baby, son?"
"Still in the baby's room, ma'am. Maybe it'll be brought here soon, it looks like it's time to drink some milk. He must be hungry,"
Not long after, the door was opened by a nurse pushing the baby box inside.
"It's time to breastfeed, ma'am," the nurse said, then picked up the 3.6kg baby and gave it to Ara.
Ara seemed to be breathing out a long sigh.
"Why ma'am, is there a problem?"
"No need, I can," said Ara convinced.the woman immediately positioned her baby to suckle him. The sensation of the baby breastfeeding first time seems very extraordinary.sick due to his tongue is still rough hurt ****** Ara. but the woman just - while crying between pain and haru.
"Ra, this is a precious moment for you and your baby" said Sri who is certainly experienced.
"Let's go out and let the chubby suckle first.You will disturb him if he is still there," Ms. Sri pulled one hand from the two girls.
"But I still want to carry her, Mom," Fatma said reluctantly.
"Later in the night you'll be content to carry it. Now we go home first to clean up, let the head mother accompany Ara. Because later in the afternoon you have to come back again to accompany Ara until tomorrow. Mother and mother Fatimah can't just leave the children."
"It doesn't have to be both, Mom. One is enough, let the other help you. Pity the children if our energy is much reduced," said Ara suggested. Of course because the two girls were the most nimble and young among the others. They were the most reliable and their position would be empty as it had to accompany Ara.
"Alright Sinta will come back later. He is more senior and more familiar with this city," said Fatimah bu who diyayakan by others. But Fatma looked grim on her own.
"Hey! Let me address your idol Oryza's doctor if we meet, how about, then,?" Sinta grabbed Fatma's arm so that the girl would not grieve.
"You promise?" Sinta nodded and the grim face turned cheerful as ever. Basic girls, it always is, if it comes to handsome men.
"Let's go home, Mom." The two girls even preceded Sri. Walk in front, with arms stuck together.
"Mom, we'll take care of you."
"Yes, gohome. Let me wait here until Sinta comes back later" said Fatimah.
After they died, Fatimah helped Ara put the beautiful baby to sleep.
"What'd you name this beauty, son?" Ms. Fatimah was still hunched over in front of the box, touching the little baby's cheeks that felt as soft as squishy.
"Ermerra. Ermerra Safior,
Ma'am. We call Merra."
"Beautiful name, does it mean anything?" Fatimah looked up to see Ara.
"Nothing, Mom. I just combined my name and his father's name." Ara looked down.
"You didn't add his father's last name, son?"
"Let's let her dad do it, Mom. If a soul mate still wants us to meet." The two people of different generations were staring at each other.
Yes, resignation is the only best path right now. At least Ara can be happy at this time because considering the words of Eagle, that Dani is willing to return to Indonesia.
May your happiness be multiplied, even without me. Our little girl will surely miss her father very much someday." said Ara in her heart.

Adrian takes his car along the road which brings him back to his wife's memory. Yes, along the road they used to walk every day.
He wouldn't be able to do something like this if Dani wasn't here to replace him. Every day Adrian would certainly struggle with pen and paper that filled almost his entire life. Only Ara gives him color, even in every busyness he will remain happy if he remembers the small actions of the wife who is sometimes unexpected.
In the car alone. Staring at the day that crawled evening with a cold breeze due to the earth that drizzled that afternoon. The man who put his hands on the steering wheel occasionally imitated the voice of an old singer who was singing a memory bud that was very fitting with his mood.
Along the way, we join hands.
Along the way memories ..you hugged me affectionately.
It was raining, at the beginning of the month.
Add to the enjoyment of syahdu night.
Even though I am, now it's both.
You are no different either.
But memories, all along the way.
No way, out of my memory.
Adrian crying. Accompanied by an old chat entitled "Along the Way of Memories" that tickled in his ears and rainwater. Only points can obscure his view.
Why the lyrics are almost the same as his life story. What an inevitable coincidence.
But of course the man does not accept if until Ara double. Because he would not be able to wish his last love. But, it's not that she shouldn't be selfish, Ara left because she sacrificed for him and his son, Dani. So that the young man who has completed his s1 education in Switzerland will go home. Living his old life, back to the way Ara had not come.
One day, if Ara is happier with someone new, she will let go. Because he felt that he was only giving wounds because of his inability to side with one of them.
Heart ... can he guess as deep as he feels. Adrian could now say resigned and sincere if Ara finds a new life that makes her happier. But later? The heart of no one knows.
