...Bayu continued to hold Risa's hand. Hands full of that infusion hose. Sometimes his eyes turned to look at the face that had closed his eyes. An oxygen hose is lodged in his nose. Risa looks so skinny. And Bayu never thought that Risa had the disease for a long time....
...Outside the room, Risa's parents came. Bayu saw from the inside that there was a glass to limit the room. Bayu came out of the room and met his two parents-in-law....
...Bayu came out and wanted to greet both Risa's parents. But Bayu's hand was not reciprocated by Mama Risa....
..."Ma". Papa Risa warned his wife. Mama Risa is still angry with Bayu. Bayu had just left his daughter. Bayu who does not care about Risa in the least. So even now the arrival of Bayu will not mean anything to Risa....
..."Ma Ma Ma Baafin Bayu. Bayu wrong". Saying to the in-laws. But the heartache of Mama Risa is not easy to just disappear. He kept his face away from Bayu....
..."When did you come Bay ?" Tanya papa Risa breaks his wife's selfishness. Papa Risa is also hurt by Bayu's behavior. But anyway his daughter loved the figure of the man....
..."Not long ago pa. As soon as Bayu gets here". The answer....
..."Jing. Jeng can go home. Let me and my husband change waiting for Risa here". Mama Risa said to Bayu's mother. But suddenly Bayu interrupted Risa's mother's conversation before being answered by her mother....
..."If I may let me wait for him tonight ma". Say Bayu....
..."Don't need. Risa doesn't need you". Reply mama Risa ketus....
..."It was ma. Bayu is also Risa's legal husband. Mama can't do that". Persuade papa Risa. But again, Risa's mother does not allow Bayu here....
..."Since she left too Risa can be without him". Deny mama Risa again....
..."I apologize on behalf of my son Jeng. But please. Tonight just let Bayu here take care of Risa". Pinta Bayu's mother pleads. And finally, Mama Risa nodded in agreement. He let Bayu stay here last night....
..."Iren where's ma ?" Ask Bayu to his mother-in-law again. Hopefully this time he answers the question. Nil. He got no answer from his mother-in-law. The pain in his heart was so deep. Until papa Risa answered him....
..."We leave it with the nurse who took care of her. We can't keep Iren full time. So we decided to hire a baby sister". Answer papa Risa followed by a nod by Bayu....
..."Yes already. Then I want to go home first. You're here, Bay". Pamit bayu's mother....
..."Yes Ma". Answer Bayu later....
...Bayu's mother came home. And shortly after that followed by mama and papa Risa also came home. Stay by yourself there. Bayu chose to sit in the waiting chair. Recollecting every moment with Risa. But I found no good memories in it. Bayu is aware that as long as he marries Risa, Bayu still keeps thinking about Khinan. No time they had sex with husband and wife was only the name Khinan called. But Risa never protested about it. Bayu also often caught Risa wiping her tears. But he still tried to smile in front of Bayu. And the stupid Bayu, he never cared about it....
...Time keeps going. Time has shown at 1 am. Bayu began to feel sleepy. He tried to close his eyes on the side of Risa's bed. While his hand never let go of Risa's hand....
...And as Bayu was about to fall asleep, he felt Risa's hand move slightly. Bayu who was originally sleepy was back in shape after knowing Risa's hand moved. And soon Risa made a sound by calling her name....
..."Yes Ris. I'mhere". Bayu answered approaching Risa. Risa who opened her eyes slightly smiled towards Bayu. Risa wants to say something again. But his words are not clear in Bayu's ears....
..."What do you want ? Say". Bayu said and brought himself closer to Risa. Hope Risa makes her words clearer. But Risa's voice still sounded unclear. Until Bayu was confused how to. Bayu immediately went out to see the nurse who was on guard that night....
..."Risa's mother's condition has not fully recovered. So you still need enough rest, sir". Said the nurse on guard that night....
..."Okay sus". Sayu to the nurse....
..."The bay". Risa said very softly....
..."What's up ? What do you want ?" Tanya Bayu approached....
..."I'm sorry". Said Risa again....
...Bayu stroked Risa's hair. "You don't talk much first. Inget said the nurse. You have to rest a lot so that you recover quickly yes". Answer Bayu again. Risa also nodded....
..."Can I have something ?" Ask Risa....
..."Whatever it is I'll do". Bayu replied while nodding for sure....
..."I want to be treated with you for my last few days". Answer Risa....
..."You must be healed". Answer Bayu. Honestly Bayu was holding back her tears to not come out. Bayu was so saddened by Risa's current condition. If Bayu had known about the pain suffered by Risa, surely he would be gentle with his wife. But regret always comes at the end of time....
..."Now you have to rest. So you can go home". Say Bayu caressed Risa's cheek. Risa also nodded. He closed his eyes to rest....
...Morning's approaching. Risa can speak clearly. He also doesn't have an oxygen hose on his nose anymore....
...Bayu looks like he just came out of the bathroom. Then sit back near the bed Risa is....
..."The bay". Said Risa....
..."Hhmmm". Answer Bayu by getting closer to him....
...Risa smile. Bayu's attitude was not as cold as that time. Now Risa can feel the warmth of Bayu's attitude to him....
..."First. I'm sorry. Because it took you from Khinan back then. Second. I also apologize for that time. The time when you misunderstood Diko. I was going to buy meatballs then. Because I'm nyidam Bay again. And I accidentally met Diko. And we eat together". Obviously Risa. "Diko is my old friend Bay. We never had any relationship. And the third one..." Risa paused her words. Then he went back to silence....
..."What's the third one ?" Tanya Bayu was still curious....
..."The third one I'm sorry about. Because Iren's not really your flesh and blood". Evidently. Jayu just smiled hearing it....
..."Can I answer ?" Ask Bayu. Risa just nodded. "Yg first, I also thank you for taking me. That way I can see the person I love happy with the right choice. Second, I'm sorry I didn't hear your explanation. And lastly, I know Iren's not my son". Answer Bayu again. "That's why I left you that day". Further explained. "Now it's my turn to apologize Risa. I'm the one who left just like that. I'm the same as you. I'm the one who never cared about you". Bagas....
..."I'm happy enough to be with you for just a little while Bay". Said Risa. And without feeling the tears Risa fell on both cheeks. Bayu wiped away every tear that fell on Risa's cheek....
..."If you want to tell a story from the beginning. I can definitely keep my attitude Ris. So you won't get hurt like this". Say Bayu. But Risa shook her head....
..."I don't want to live at the mercy of others Bay. I don't want to". Said. "And now I know, your sweet attitude is just a taste of cassian. It can't be more". Further. " but. It's okay. I accept Bay. The important thing is that I can see your smile every day at my age". Continue Risa again....
..."Sorry I'm Ris". Bayu said who was unable to hold back his tears and squandered Risa's hug. Risa enjoyed it too. And this time really felt a sincere embrace from Bayu. Risa does not want to be sad. Although he knows that Bayu's heart is not for him, but he is really happy when his time is spent with Bayu. That was more than enough for Risa....
