"But who is that man? what was the man's relationship with Bela and the child?" muttered Bu Santi when he saw Riza who was also beside Raynan.
"Why does the boy call him Daddy?" muttered Bu Santi when he heard Raynan calling Riza as daddy.
Returning home from the hospital, Santi meets Mita at a restaurant and tells her about Ray, who has a child.
"Did aunt Ray have a child? that means that Bela's here now?" ask Mita.
"Yes, and it seems like I just saw, Bela was also able to walk. And at that time did not the doctor say that he would not be able to walk again huh?" ask Miss Santi.
"After Bela, it used to be the doctor who handled Mbak Bela said that anyway, Tan." replied Mita.
"Fortunate as well, he. Alloh still gives healing and honestly I did not expect that she could also get pregnant even the child was so similar to Ray as a child. Now I believe that the child is Ray's son" said Santi.
"Then how is Tan, is Ray going to be back with Bela? if it's like that? Then what about me, Tan?" mita asked restlessly.
"Mita, I'm going to be with you, because anyway, you've been waiting for Ray a long time and you've been so good with us, even though aunty knows it's going to be harder, you know, you know, when Bela is not here alone, Ray also always avoids if aunt, discussing marriage with you, especially now there is Bela plus there are children among them," said Ms Santi.
"Tante, I love Ray. I can't imagine that this time I had to swallow a bitter pill for failing to marry Ray, Tan. Everyone knows we're getting married. I waited five years for Ray. Do I now have to be eliminated after the return of Bela?"
"You calm down, Mit. I'll try to persuade Ray, but of course you should be able to accept Ray's son as well. Because let's how I want to get custody of my grandchildren." said Miss Santi.
"It doesn't matter if I have to take care of her son, Ray. I can be a good mother-in-waiting for Ray's son." explains Mita.

"Sorry sir, I told Miss Santi that you were meeting but, Miss Santi kept pushing in," said secretary Ray in the meeting room and all the employees in the meeting room looked at Bu Santi.
Ray nodded his head at his secretary.
"Meeting today, we end up here, you guys please get back to work" said Ray.
"What does Mama really want? why make a scene in Mi's office?" ask Ray.
"When are you and Mita getting married? Mom doesn't want you to put it off anymore. Your child's problem from Bela, Mami has told Mita, she does not mind if later have to take care of the child," explained Miss Santi.
"Astaghfirullah, after all Mami can have such thoughts, Isn't Mami also a mother? Mommy should be able to feel how a mother feels if she has to be separated from her child" said Ray.
"Mami, Bela is now a sholihah woman unlike what Mami thought" said Ray.
"Solihah's woman? Open your eyes, obviously he's been with other men and Mami looks like this is also a new man again, not the old one," said Santi Bu.
"You mean Mami Riza? Mami was wrong, Riza was not Bela's man. Riza is a person who has been helped by the Bela family and Riza is also Ray's partner, we have worked together for five years, so I know who Riza is" explained Ray.
"Five years you've been working with a man who's been hiding your wife?" ask Miss Santi.
"Astaghfirullah, Riza does not hide. indeed Bela who hides from us, for the sake of Mami, Bela does not want, Mami continues to grieve because Mami once said, Mami always remembered Papi every time she saw Bela, but she did not want to, that's why Bela decided to leave the house. Bela sacrificed her happiness to see Mami happy and able to live a normal life again" explained Ray.
"So we mean, Bela took all the burden herself and gave birth to her own child without telling you because of Mami?" ask Miss Santi.
"Bela once saw Mami crying in front of Papi's photo, and said that Mami always remembered Papi every time she saw Bela, did Mami know, even to this day, Mami knew, Bela refuses to return with Ray. Bela also asks Ray to live the life that Mami wants. Bela did something wrong, Mi. But didn't Bela make it up to him? Bela has felt the same suffering as we feel" Ray said.
"Mi, how come Mami lives in revenge? All are forgiving. Why we who are only servants, cannot forgive someone who has realized his mistake. Even ready to make amends," said Ray again.
"Ray, actually Mami did admit that Bela has changed a lot, only this heart still hurts" said Ms Santi put her hands on her chest.
"Mi, let go of that feeling, do not hold a grudge anymore, because actually living in revenge will only eat away at our hearts, Mi. Because the devil likes to see someone hate each other and take revenge on each other" said Ray.
"Mami will forgive Bela, but that doesn't mean Mami can let you back together with Bela. What if Mami forgives Bela but you married Mita?" said Ms. Santi made an offer.
"Mi," said Ray no longer understand the way his mother thought.
"You think again, if you want Mami to forgive Bela, marry Bela.!" said Miss Santi passed.
On the way, Miss Santi who is currently sitting in the passenger seat is thinking about what Ray said.
Ms Santi recalled five years ago, saying in front of a photo of her late husband.
"What was that moment, Bela heard what I said in the room? if it's true that the reason Bela suddenly left, means it's true what Ray said, Bela does want to make amends by leaving and does not want to make me sad again" Santi murmured.
Ms. Santi also thought that Bela was not like before, Bela had transformed into a sholihah woman and now also closed her aura reflecting that she was a Muslim. It's just that, Miss Santi could not bear to let Mita who has been so good to her all this time, disappointed."
