"I'm sorry and I'm not forcing you to forgive me." Rudi got up from his seat.
"Dad..."
Rudi parsed the steps he wanted to start. He turned to look at Dika who was already standing not far from there.
"Can I call you dad?" Dika confirmed what he just said.
Grebs
Rudi embraces the tall body of his best friend's son. He had been waiting for a time like this for a long time.
"I'm sorry I can't call you papa, because to me my papa is just one, papa Hendro."
"It's okay, son, it's okay." Rudi was still so moved because Dika wanted to call him father. "Even if you still want to call me Om, it won't be my problem." Rudi patted Dika on the shoulder several times. He even had to shed his happy tears.
Dika realized that, and he still survived in the arms of his stepfather. Until finally Rudi released his embrace.
" Thank you, son... "
" For what? I haven't even said forgive you..."
Rudi fell silent. It turns out I was happy too soon.
Dika chuckled at the look on his stepfather's face that changed instantly. "I'll forgive you on one condition."
"Tell me, son, if I don't tell you to leave your mama, I will."
Dika smiled before finally returning to his serious face. "I heard you mention Rista as your son, and I wanted to know how you could marry my Mama."
Rudi's face stiffened. Should this sin be revealed now. He was not sure there would be an apology for him after Dika knew the big secret he had been hiding.
He sighed, because after all this opportunity did not come twice. He is a sin-maker, so he must also dare to take responsibility.
Rudi sighed. "Hendro sued Santi's divorce long before the company fell. When I showed up, the divorce court was read but the letter from the court had not come out."
"Then why are they home?"
"We talked to your mom, too, because there's a message that might not be delivered if you ask me..."
"And Rista?"
Rudi stiffened back. "Can I ask for time?"
"The more you buy time, I'm afraid my heart will freeze again."
Degh's!
"Are you sure you want to hear it now?"
"I'm very sure." replied Dika mantab.
Flashback.
Rudi POVs
"Yes..." Santi came into my room with tears. He came by carrying Restu who was then about 3 years old.
I who just finished the meeting was not busy.
"Why you?" I grabbed Santi's body and Restu who slept with him.
"Mas Hendro cheated on Mas.." said Santi in the middle of his crying.
I don't know what to say, I was so surprised to hear it. "Restu baringin first huh, pity if his sleep is disturbed." I took Santi to the break room that was inside my work space.
"Don't just slander or you've seen it wrong" I told Santi after laying Restu on the bed.
I was only able to stroke his back and hope that the woman I desperately pushed out of my mind would calm down.
"More so when I heard Mas Hendro's voice asking the woman to deliver a towel for him. As a woman, I can't be prejudiced?"
I can't say. The business world is dirty, the business world is cruel. Beds are often a way to get a deal. I know very well, but I'm also disappointed why my best friend could be like that. What he hurt was the woman I loved so much.
"How do you want it now?"
"I want to go with Mas, I don't want to go home. If I go to your dad's house, I'm afraid they'll think things through."
I'm embracing. Missing the night by holding back that feeling was extremely heavy. I tried to close my eyes. But when I heard the cry of Restu who woke up in the middle of the night because I asked for milk, I immediately approached their room. I tried to help Santi who was in trouble making milk while calming Restu who was crying loudly. I carried a handsome boy who at his birth I fought for.
Her crying subsided as I hugged her and immediately went to sleep as I poked a bottle of milk at her. I don't know why I feel so happy just like this.
That night I did not return to the room because Santi invited me to chat, telling me how depressed she was especially since giving birth. He could not freely follow where Hendro went, tortured worried, tortured anxious, especially if he heard Hendro dealing with many women. Career woman whose appearance is awake, unlike her who did not even have time to take care of herself as usual.
It is true that the man and the woman cannot be just the two of us, and we are really the victims to have to slip in the abyss of sin.
I couldn't help myself, because for me it was the first. Santi was also blinded because he was disappointed to be unable to prevent the sin from happening.
After that incident, I decided to leave, disappear so as not to interfere with the lives of Hendro and Santi.
9 months later I heard that Santi gave birth. I was surprised because I still remember the incident 9 months before.
I secretly asked Reno to take a bit of Rista's hair and do a DNA test. It turns out, he is my son.
I kept quiet, I didn't tell anyone about this.
When I came back because the company was on edge, I was shocked because Hendro said he had divorced Santi and asked me to marry him. I refused, but she said that Rista should be close to her papa.
"What do you mean?" I asked Hendro.
"Rudi, I already know that Rista is your son."
I'm ashamed I'm sorry. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I was khilaf at that time. It's too cruel now that Rista knows you're not her papa?"
"You take it easy, the kids will stay with me. You just have to look after Santi."
"No, Hendro, it's not fair to them."
"Santi deserves to be happy, and when she's with me she just keeps getting hurt."
It turns out that since the beginning of her pregnancy, Santi has confessed our deeds of khilaf. Hendro was disappointed but he also felt he was no better. Forgiveness is both options. For the sake of Restu and for the child in his birth. After the birth of Santi and Hendro did DNA tests and the results of Rista's DNA did not match Hendro. So it is certain that Rista is Rudi's son, so there is no Surya name embedded in Rista's name.
Flashback Off
"So you think it's Papa's fault here?"
I'm shaking. "Hendro may be less careful that he should get caught up in his opponent's game."
"meaning?"
"That guy is Mustika. She is the wife of Galih Rahardja."
Dika.
"Mustika has long liked Hendro. The peak when both of your parents divorced, Mustika also wanted to divorce Galih in order to be with Hendro. Galih doesn't accept. Eventually, he managed to save his home. Since then Rahardja has always done various ways to tear down Surya."
"So Surya and Rahardja's competition because of this problem?"
"Not all, but there is an effect."
There was regret in Dika's heart considering how much he hated Rudi. "Dad, forgive me..."
"Can I hold you?"
There is relief in Dika's heart despite the pain also whack when hearing the story of his parents' past, and how the end of their household.
