Sid was silent, not a word coming out of his lips. Although he knew what kind of woman Melisa really was, but he did not expect the woman was even able to betray Keanu who was so sincere in love with her.
"I'd better meet Melisa" Keanu said as he rose from his seat and stepped into Melisa's room.
Slowly, Keanu opened Melisa's room door. He saw Melisa still drooping weakly on her bed. The woman smilingly welcomed Keanu's arrival while gently stroking her stomach.
With a matted face, Keanu walked over to Melisa and sat down beside her. Keanu looked at the woman without blinking a single bit.
"Keanu, what's wrong? Why does your face look wrinkled?" melisa asked as she grabbed Keanu's hand and then grasped it tightly.
Keanu exhaled heavily while pulling his hand from Melisa's grasp. "Come, stop pretending. I've ..."
"Relisa! How are you doing, honey?! I'm so worried about you, are you okay?!"
Suddenly Mrs Rita and Mr. Rendra entered Melisa's room. With a hasty step, Madam Rita approached Melisa then kissed her face.
"Mel's fine, ma'am." Melisa smiled as she watched Keanu's expression that looked very upset as well as disappointed.
"Ehm, I'm sorry. There's still something I have to take care of with Sid" Keanu said.
Melisa smiled as she extended her hand to Keanu. Hoping Keanu approached then kissed her forehead just like he used to do before. However, it turns out that Melisa has to swallow the disappointment because Keanu doesn't even care about her.
Mrs Rita and Mr. Rendra were stunned to see Keanu's reaction at the time. The man kept his feet out of the room regardless of his wife.
"What's wrong with Keanu?" madam Rita asked while watching the man until he disappeared from her sight.
Melisa's face changed. He was saddened with teary eyes. "I'm sure Keanu already knows everything! My God, will I be divorced after this?" inner Melisa.
"Mella?!"
"Ehm, he's fine, Mom. It's just that, she was still in shock after seeing my situation earlier" Melisa said.
"really that? You're not having any problems, are you?" the lady asked, still not believing what her son said.
Melisa grabs her mother's hand and calms the woman down. "Mel's serious, Mom. We don't have any problems" Melisa said.
Meanwhile Mr. Rendra was silent, although he also felt a change in Keanu's attitude towards Melisa.
Keanu continued to step towards the front yard of the Hospital in quick steps. While Sid still faithfully followed his footsteps from behind.
"Sid, I'll take the car! You better call your men to pick you up here" Keanu said before he entered his car.
"Good, Sir." Sid is actually very worried about Mr. Keanu. He was afraid that the man would do something that would hurt himself. Especially now that Keanu is in a state that is still very chaotic.
Keanu drove his car into a public funeral, where his first wife and son were buried. Upon arrival, Keanu rushed to where the wife and child were.
"Do you see how I'm doing now, Ly? I'm ruined! The woman I thought could take your place betrayed my trust. Uh! You shouldn't have left me, you should have stayed here and accompanied me, Ly!" lirih Keanu while staring at the pusara of his late wife.
Keanu tried to calm himself in that place while remembering the happiness he passed with his wife. After feeling somewhat calm, Keanu returned to drive his car.
Halfway to his home, he suddenly turned his car around.
Meanwhile, the,
Naila can only smile while imagining her mother's life while still with her family. If only his mother had followed what the Father said, maybe he would have lived happily until now.
While being engrossed in telling stories, the view of Aunt Mira was fixed on the traveling fruit seller who often passed in front of her house. And coincidentally, the salesman stopped across the street from his house to serve the buyer.
"Well, there it is! Aunty has long wanted to eat the fruit, but never met. Lucky for today to meet," said Aunt Mira as she moved from her seat and then ran small to the front of the fence of her house.
"Come, Nai! Aunty guarantee you'll be hooked, "call Aunt Mira to have Naila follow her to the fence to buy the fruit.
Naila was silent for a moment. He recalled his story about the fruit. Where he wants to eat fruit, but the money is not enough to buy one portion.
"Nai, come!" call Aunt Mira again.
"Good, Auntie." Naila rushes after Aunt Mira in front of the fence.
"Well, one for you and one for me!" Aunt Mira handed over a large portion of fruit curd to Naila and then invited her nephew to relax in front of her house.
Naila held onto the package with trembling hands. I don't know why his heart hurts. Especially when he remembered his pili-age time during his stay with Mr. Keanu and Melisa.
"Come, Nai, taste your fruit! Why are you just looking at it?!" said Aunt Mira when watching Naila just fell silent while staring at the package of fruit without wanting to touch it.
"I-Yes aunt, all right." Naila opened the package and tasted it.
Without realizing Aunt Mira, Naila shed her tears while chewing the fruit. It tasted very good and was exactly like Bi Iyem's.
"What do you think, Nai? The fruit is delicious, isn't it?" tanya Aunt Mira as she reached for Naila's bowed face.
"Gosh, Nai? Why are you crying? It doesn't taste good, does it?"
Aunt Mira panicked when she found out that her nephew was crying while enjoying the fruit she had just bought.
"Nai, forgive Aunt. Is the dish not good?" ask Aunt Mira again.
Naila shook her head slowly. "The fruit is very good, Aunt. But, this fruit ramjak reminds Naila of the bitter memories while living with Mr. Keanu and Miss Melisa," Naila said stammering.
Aunt Mira embraces Naila's tiny body, "It's okay, honey. Forget all that and don't remember it again. Already yes, sshhh ..."
Unasked by Aunt Mira, Naila kept telling her sad story to the woman.
Meanwhile, they don't realize Keanu is watching them from inside his car.
"Naila, I'm sorry .." wry Keanu without taking his eyes off the little girl crying in Aunt Mira's arms.
Not enough to get there, Keanu ventured to approach the fence of the house of Aunt Mira and stood there.
"Naila, it's me! I beg you to forgive me, Nai .." said Keanu, shaking the fence that was in his way.
Naila was surprised, she immediately turned her head towards Keanu. And after learning that Keanu was there, Naila immediately ran without caring about Aunt Mira. He continued running with a frightened face towards the room and locked himself in there.
"Nai ..." said Keanu
