Dafi was standing by Damar's side, looking at his father's pale face with a bitter feeling. The ICU room was cold and silent, only the sound of a monitor showing a line up and down, a sign that there was still life from the man he once hated so much.
"Pa, wake! I beg you, Pa," ask Dafi with tears in her eyes.
"I'd feel guilty and hate myself for a lifetime if Papa didn't wake up, because I'm the cause of all this." Dafi bowed and cried as she pleased, her heart filled with regret for everything she did and happened.
There was no response at all from Damar, he was still unmoved like before.
"I was thinking by asking Mama to stay with us, it could help me separate Papa from Sera, but it turned out that it just made Papa like this. I'm sorry, Pa. I'm sorry." Dafi cried so much, she even knelt by Damar's bedside and bowed in regret.
This time Damar responded, without Dafi noticing a drop of clear liquid falling from Damar's eyes that were still tightly closed.
"Pa, wakeup! I promise that if Papa wakes up, I'll let Sera go, I'll give her to Papa, because I know Papa loves her."
At the same time, Sera returned to the ICU room and caught Dafi kneeling while crying at Damar's side. He was stunned to look at the father and son from behind the glass blockage of the room, his heart felt sad as well as moved, until his tears fell without him being able to prevent.
Sera hurriedly shifted her gaze and moved away from the room's sealing glass as she saw Dafi rise up then walk out of the ICU room, he didn't want his ex to be embarrassed to know he saw what the guy was doing just now.
Dafi came out of the ICU room wiping her wet eyes, she gasped when she saw Sera was already in the waiting room.
"Sera? Since when are you here?" Dafi was suddenly awkward, afraid that Sera had seen him earlier.
"Must." Sera was acting ordinary, as if she had seen nothing.
"Then how about Oma?"
"Oma was still unconscious, and there was Eonni guarding her" Sera replied.
Dafi let out a heavy breath, "Pity Oma."
For a moment there was no conversation between Sera and Dafi, both of them were busy with their respective thoughts.
"Sera!" tegur Dafi finally.
"Hem." Sera just cleared her throat without looking at her ex.
"You love Papa, don't you?" ask Dafi without further ado.
Turning back to Dafi with a pounding heart, she suddenly felt nervous and awkward.
"Why are you asking that?"
"I just want to make sure that Papa's love doesn't clap one hand."
Sera frowned, "What do you mean?"
"Sera, Papa loves you."
Sera was stunned, her heartbeat getting louder.
"Don't talk, Dafi! This is not a good time to joke!"
"I'm serious, Ra! Papa loves you and I know it!"
Sera shook her head, "I don't believe you!"
"You must believe! I heard Papa say to myself that he's in love with you, even though he's trying to cover up his feelings."
Sera again had to be surprised to hear Dipa's confession.
At the same time Riko came, Dafi hurriedly turned her face away and wiped her tears.
***
Riko was chatting with Dafi about the kidnapping case that Anggi had experienced, while Sera looked at Damar from the room's glass, she was still thinking about Dafi and Yuni's words earlier, she said, I don't know why his heart trembles every time he remembers it. He still couldn't believe that if the man he now looked at loved him, he thought Damar only thought of him as his own son, he felt that Damar's attitude was as natural as that of a father.
Maybe Sera forgot, Damar is still a human, a lonely, mature man with feelings. He can be in love, happy or even hurt and sad, even though he always tries to cover it up.
Sera still wanted to deny everything, but her heart seemed to stop beating when she remembered Damar kissing her so gently the other day, she only realized that the man was beginning to show her love, she said, but he is insensitive.
"Oh my God, why do I realize this now?" inner Sera, her tears were dripping but she hurriedly ca.
Sera feels guilty for ignoring Damar's feelings, she never thought their togetherness had grown the seeds of love that she did not realize.
But now the reality is they are faced with a divorce, a decision that Sera considers the best way. Sera felt even more regretful, she forced the will to part without even thinking about the man's feelings.
Although he was listening to Riko's story, Dafi also occasionally glanced at Sera who stood back to them. There was jealousy when he found the former he still loved to keep looking at the father, but he was determined to be sincere even though he had to bear the pain.
Riko's phone suddenly rang, making Sera's daydream of Damar crumble. He and Dipa looked at Riko.
"Hello, sir."
"Mas, we already know the whereabouts of the perpetrator and the black Taft car, after tracking the GPS of the perpetrator's phone and the cctv on the highway that recorded the car's journey. Now our team is heading there to conduct a raid."
Riko's face turned tense, "If you may know where the address is, sir?"
"Jalan Kemuning number twelve."
"Ok, okay. Thanks for the information, sir."
"Together, my mother."
The police immediately turned off the phone.
"What's up, Mom?" cecar Dafi was curious.
"Police have found the whereabouts of your mother's abductors, now they are heading there," Riko replied straightforwardly.
"Then we should go there, too, Mas."
"Don't! Let me go, you wait here."
"But I want to make sure Mama's okay." Dafi insisted.
"It's dangerous there."
"There's a lot of cops, Mas. We must be safe" said Dafi stubbornly.
Riko let out a sigh of resignation, "Alright, let's go!"
Dafi turned to look at Sera who looked worried, "Ra, take Papa. I'll go first."
Sera nodded, "Be careful."
Dafi smiled and hurried away from the hospital with Riko.
