You're Me She

104. I pledge..

Brakkkkk...!

"You!" Greta kicked down the table and looked at the Son with a gaze filled with anger. Putra was surprised to see Greta's reaction after she told him the story of her with Alia. So surprised, Putra to the point of nudging the glass beside him, until the glass was smashed into pieces on the floor of the restaurant where he and Greta met tonight. All eyes were on the two of them, some of the visitors seemed to whisper about the two of them.

"Sa-I'm sorry Greta," said the Son with a stutter.

"I'm sorry? Do you know the suffering that Alia went through? Do you know how to conceive and raise a child by yourself?" Greta asked with both eyes glaring.

"Gret... I have also made amends in prison. Is it less?"

"Obviously less! Why are you not to be put to death!" Greta got up from her seat, grabbed her handbag and began to leave the restaurant with an emotional heart.

"I am a bastard. But am I not entitled to trust after I try to change for the better?"

Greta's steps were restrained, then she let out a long sigh and turned to the Son.

"I have said something honest to you, with nothing I cover to make me look good in your eyes. I'm a jerk, and that's true. But that was then, not now. Even today, I have never been married or with any other woman. Alia was the last one for me. After foolishness brought me disaster in my own life. Now I regret it so much. I knew it was too late, at least I just wanted to meet with Alia and Eijaz and say an apology to both of them."

As Greta's emotional eyes went out, she slowly walked up to the Son and sat down again before the man.

"Thank you for coming back. I know you're a good man. I know your anger as a woman. I know your emotions as a friend or friend of Alia. I apologize to you when my past is so disgusting. But let me meet them. I don't know who else to ask but you for help." The Son's face looked clear as he looked at Greta who looked all wrong.

"Greta, I promise you, if I ever get that trust back from Alia, I'll never waste her or my son and her. Now, I just realized that the best woman in my life is only Alia. That is the reason I dare not start a new life with another woman. I'm afraid, there's no woman like her who's always understood whatever my flaws are."

Greta was bowed in hearing the Son's words which sounded very sincere and regretful in her ears.

"More, it turns out we have a child. I just want Eijaz to know me. If Eijaz does not accept me, I make sure I will never bother them again. However, I will continue to fulfill my obligations as the biological father of Eijaz. I want to take responsibility for Eijaz. I know it's too late, but I'm a man, and I have to try it. Whatever the result, I'll take it with a chest." Keep the Son again.

Greta looked at Putra carefully, trying to find honesty in the man's pair of eyes.

"Greta, I learned a lot after I received my punishment. I am not forcing anyone to trust me. However, if you allow me to know Alia's home address, I won't say if I know it from you. I'll keep it a secret. My intentions are good and I will not do anything to harm Alia and my biological children. If anything happens, this is my hotel address. You can find me here, and report me to the police."

Greta looked at the address of the hotel that Putra had thrust into her presence. For a long time the woman was silent, as if she were considering what she should do for the Son and Alia. One side of him hates men like the Son, the other side he feels compassion for the Son who looks very sorry for what he has done in the past.

"Do you want to promise me?" Greta asked after a long time of silence.

"I promise, if you can you can keep an eye on me when I meet with Alia. If something happens, call the police immediately. I'm ready to be punished if I do something in your eyes." Said the Son, who was trying to convince Greta.

Greta bit the corner of her lips. He was worried about the decision he would take for the man who was pleading in front of him.

"Oath! I pledge. Hold my ID," Son issued a ID card, passport and whatever was in his bag.

Greta fell silent again, staring at everything the Son took out of the man's bag.

"Save your identification. Your hotel address is already held and I can know where your home address is through the hotel information you occupy. If indeed you wish to meet with Alia and Eijaz, I will inform you of his home address. But let me watch you from a distance. Because I don't fully trust you" Greta said bluntly.

"OK! Well.. I agree," said the Son with a visibly excited face.

"Alright, now you finish your food. Then pay all the bills at this restaurant, and come with me."

"I'm full, now we go to Alia's house."

"No! Mubazirs! Finish your food, or....."

"All right!" The son immediately ate the rest of his food that was on the plate greedily. Before he hears of the threat from Greta.

Greta smiled as she looked at the son who looked greedy eating the rest of his food.

.

"How's the food?" Alia asked Eijaz who was sitting next to her who was driving a car at a moderate speed, tonight.

"Not bad." Eijaz who looks indifferent.

"Eijaz. come on.." Alia looked at Eijaz with a look of disappointment.

"Then what should I say? It is not so bad how their cooking tastes," said Eijaz while returning Alia's gaze with a sharp gaze.

Alia took a deep breath and tried to dampen the emotions she was feeling. Lately Eijaz did rebel a little against him. All of that since Eijaz often asked about who his father was.

"Honey, how about we go on vacation tomorrow? Where is Eijaz going, baby?" Alia asked with a tone of voice that was made as gentle as her.

"Mom..." Eijaz let out a long sigh and looked at Alia with a lazy look.

Alia was speechless, she really felt hopeless with the current attitude of Eijaz. Eijaz who used to be cheerful, but now looks gloomy after Eijaz began to go to school and see his friends who have complete parents.

"Lord, if this is the punishment for my past sins, I accept. But Lord, please give me the best way out. I just want to bring back this one-of-a-kind son's smile. God, I'm enough to lose my smile. But don't take my Eijaz smile.." Inner Alia while shedding her tears of joy.
