"So you found the kid?" asked Dahlia excitedly.

"Not for sure, we have to wait for the DNA test results to come out in a few days."

Dahlia approached her husband.

"Hopefully he is your son" he said expectantly.

"Yes, and I'm pretty sure if he's my son, his face looks a lot like Nisa's."

Dahlia again showed her happy face.

"Later God grants all our prayers, Dance will finally be healed."

"Yes, our daughter will be healed." Vishnu smiled at his happy wife.

"What about Nisa? Did you find him too?"

"No. He's still missing just like the earth swallowed, no one knows his whereabouts right now."

Dahlia took a long breath.

"I understand if he's disappointed in us."

Vishnu. He recalled what happened 20 years ago.

At that time, Dance was 10 years old, when she decided to marry Nisa, the maid who had been working with her.

Not without reason he suddenly married his own maid, everything he did for the sake of his daughter Tari who suffered from Aplastic Anemia, a congenital disease that made him have to depend on drugs to survive.

Doctors several times suggested that Vishnu and Dahlia should return to have children, so that later sister Tari can help cure her brother's disease because the one drug that can most make him fully healed is by transplanting spinal cord from siblings.

But unfortunately, Dahlia did not get pregnant even though all efforts have been done and the results remain nil until the age of Tari stepped ten years.

Vishnu and Tari had given up hope, until one day Dahlia had an idea for Vishnu to marry another woman for the recovery of their child. Vishnu who initially refused finally agreed for the healing of Dance.

Vishnu is willing to marry again.

Actually not married, let's just say Dahlia told her husband to let Vishnu leave his seeds to another woman, so that later the child could be a cure for their daughter's disease.

And finally Nisa, their maid who had only worked two months became the woman chosen to be the woman whose womb was tipped by the seed of Vishnu.

Of course Nisa does not know, she who is an innocent girl from the village does not know if she is being utilized, even when Vishnu pretends to fall in love with her. Nisa who is still innocent lulled by the seduction and sweet words of Vishnu until finally when Vishnu invites her to marry he immediately agrees, without thinking if Vishnu is the husband of others.

Vishnu eventually marries Nisa, takes her away from the house and buys her a new home for her residence, of course everything Dahlia arranged in secret, because Nisa knows that Dahlia doesn't know their marriage.

It didn't take long, what was expected finally to happen, Nisa got pregnant. Hearing this news Vishnu and Dahlia were happy not to be overcast, they thought if their beloved daughter would finally recover from her illness.

He overheard Vishnu talking over the phone to his parents who were angry to find out that Vishnu had remarried to another woman.

Nisa heard clearly all the reasons why Vishnu married her, she was shocked because she was only used by Vishnu and his wife for the healing of their child. Even he heard also if Vishnu intends to divorce her after she gave birth later, and will take their child.

An angry Nisa then ran away from her house, she left and did not want to be found again, she also did not want her son to be found by Vishnu, Vishnu, he did not want his son to be born into the world just to be used as medicine for the healing of their son, the people who had deceived him.

Dancing was shocked to see two women enter her room, she then hurriedly covered her bald head with a veil beside her.

"Dance." Sheryl walked over to the bed.

"What are you doing here?" tanya Dance with a tone of dislike.

"We want to see you" replied Intan.

"I don't want you to see, go." Dance spoke by continuously lowering her head.

"We're not going to go." Sheryl shed tears, she understood why Tari was acting that way.

"Go away. I don't want you to be sorry." Dance returned to throw away her two best friends.

Intan is approaching as Dance gets closer.

"We love you, not you." Intan sat in front of her best friend.

Sheryl stood beside Intan, seemingly wiping away the tears that kept coming out.

"Why are you keeping this from us?" ask Sheryl.

Dance kept her head down, she did not want her two best friends to see her face clearly.

"Go away. I beg you."

Intan hugged him tightly.

"I'm not leaving, from now on I'll accompany you."

Dance finally could not help but cry, she sobbed in the arms of Intan.

"I miss you so much" said Tari.

"We are too." Sheryl is crying.
