"Papa will tell me everything son" replied Papa Beltran.

"About 20 years ago, my mom and dad got married because they were betrothed to your grandparents, Vero. At that time Mama Anggi already had a lover, but their relationship had to end because of this matchmaking. The two of us who initially hated each other because of the matchmaking, started to feel comfortable with each other as we lived together. We started to love each other but your father, Mama Anggi's lover named Rangga did not accept when your mama started to forget him and love papa. He did not accept when he found out that Anggi was pregnant. After finding out Anggi was pregnant, Rangga immediately disappeared. At that time, papa began to feel calm because there will be no more disturbing the marriage papa and your mother, son. But after a year of her disappearance, Rangga suddenly returns and manages to kidnap your mama during Aditya's first birthday. Papa tried to find your mom anywhere but only found her the next day. When papa found your mama, your mama was being held captive in Rangga's home away from the city. When papa entered, papa and the police arrested Rangga and his men. Papa immediately opened the door one by one and Mama Anggi was in the main room. At that time, Mama Anggi was already in a state of undressed and crying hysterically when he saw papa coming and was unconscious. The worried Papa immediately took your mother to the hospital." Papa Beltran said, sighing with tightness and guilt as he found his wife in distress and failed to protect her. Aditya who was sitting next to Papa Beltran immediately stroked his papa back.

"Do not continue if it is not strong" said Aditya trying to calm his papa but reciprocated by Papa Beltran.

"No papa dit, Vero must know the incident. When papa brought your mother to the hospital, she was immediately handled by the doctor after the nurse dressed your mother because when your mother fainted, she was immediately treated by the doctor, papa covered your mother's body with a blanket in the room. The doctor said that your mom was mentally shaken. Papa immediately felt guilty at that time for failing to protect your mama, Anggi was harassed by Rangga many times violently because the doctor said there was a wound on the bottom of your mama hyks. Papa can not see your mother who always screams and tries to kill herself when she is conscious. Papa's heart hurts to see your mama who always says she's dirty, she's tried several times to kill herself hix hyks" Papa Beltran's tears broke when she remembered that. While Aditya, Vero and Chelsea have been crying since earlier because they were not strong to hear his mother who turned out to suffer so badly.

"P-Paa is pa, enough. Vero apologized pa, Vero understands now why Papa and Mama hate Vero hyks hyks" Vero's body shook violently and Vian immediately hugged Vero who was no longer controllable. If the longer left, Vero's mentality will be re-shaken.

"Patience dear, remember your emotional control yes. You don't want your papa to be more sad if you see you like this" whispered Vian in the ear of Vero and immediately embraced by Vero.

"For a month, your mother was hospitalized and always hysterical if she saw men, especially papa. But, fortunately there is Doctor Nirmala, the psychiatrist who took care of your mama. Your mom is getting better and can forget about it. Trouble came again when papa found out that your mom was pregnant. Papa thinks it was Rangga's work. At first your mother did not know about the pregnancy, Papa tried to cover it up for fear that your mother was re-shaken. But, as smart as you can cover it, your mother's pregnancy can not be covered anymore because your mother's stomach begins to grow. When your mother realized it, she tried to abort the womb by taking the drug pemugur gynec but managed to stop Bi num. But, your mama has swallowed it a little make your mama bleeding and immediately rushed to the hospital. Mama yelled hysterically when she saw her belly was still big. Papa gets angry at your mama and gets into a big fight because papa is almost frustrated to see your mama almost lose her life. Because of that fight, your mama was re-shaken again. But, lucky to be treated immediately by the doctor who treated your mother first. After you were born, Papa tried to accept you. But your mama doesn't like it when you pay attention to you. Therefore, papa has always been unfair with you. Sorry mama and papa, son" said papa ending his story.

"Vero should be sorry, Pa. With Vero, the papa family almost destroyed the hyx. Now you don't want to see Vero, do you?" said Vero. He felt like he was just a pesky carrier who deserved to be treated that way.

"No ver, your mom is in the room right now. Your mama's mentality was shaken again because that night when you left the house. It was my fault that telling the incident to Chelsea made your mama remember the dark incident" said Papa Beltran with a tangled face.

"A-What? Can Vero see it pa?"

"Byeah, go to papa's room" asked Papa Beltran. Vian and his family were just waiting in the living room as they realized this was not their realm to enter any further.

"Go! Go ye! Damn child carrier! We're the son of a bitch. Go far away from me" shouted hysterically Mama Anggi made Vero stiffly silent and fell to his floor because he could not see his mother called him a child carrier unlucky.

"Sorry ma, sorry ma, sorry Vero. Please forgive Vero ma" said Vero with tears falling continuously. Aditya who saw his sister fall on the floor directly supported Vero's body and took him out. Vero immediately hugged Aditya tightly and cried.

"Sister, it's Vero's fault, it's all because of Vero. Just try Vero was not born in this world, Mama will not be like this hyx" said Vero who cried loudly in Aditya's arms. Aditya immediately stroked Vero's back and whispered "Sstt, this is not Vero's fault, this is the fate of the deck. You're strong, you have to be strong, okay?" entertain Aditya who tries to calm Vero down.

"Vero" called Papa Beltran made Vero immediately turn his head.

"May Papa hug you dear?"

Vero immediately ran towards Papa Beltran and directly hugged him tightly.

"Do you want to apologize, Mom and Dad?" Said Papa Beltran and immediately embraced Vero who was still in his arms.

"You must be strong yes, like a strong papa until now" continued Papa Beltran while stroking Vero's head gently making Vero cry even more because he felt the warm embrace of his father, which was very warm, a hug he had never felt in his entire life.

They returned to the living room after seeing Mama Anggi began to calm down.
