Your love gave me life
Forgive Papa

Since that night, Reyhan has never been in contact with Sarah. His current focus was to heal the heart wound of the Sicilian mama.

The problem of Sarah's threat about the spread of the video that she has temporarily ignored Reyhan, especially Alden has promised not to let Sarah out of his supervision until the 100-day period ends.

“Rey, please don't go first,” pinta Peter Gilang.

The two had just attended a discussion meeting on several cases that were being handled by their lawyer's office.

“Papa wants to talk about Sarah,” said Peter Gilang when Reyhan just looked at him as if asking about the problem to be discussed.

“Better Papa focus on thinking about the condition of mama if indeed papa is sorry about what happened between papa and Sarah,” Reyhan said indifferently while carrying his files and laptop.

“Please give Papa a chance to defend yourself and provide one proof for you.”

Reyhan sighed. Only 6 steps left he reached the meeting room door.

“Sit down first here,” Peter Gilang patted the empty seat next to him.

“Papa wants to show CCTV footage of the hotel during the incident in that photo.”

Reyhan pulled up the chair next to Peter and sat there. They stayed together because Peter Gilang had asked his assistant to come out first.

Peter shifts his laptop so Reyhan can see the CCTV footage he obtained from the hotel.

“4 hotel employees were involved in trying to trap papa that night, 2 Employees at the restaurant who put stimulants in papa drinks and 2 others help prepare rooms and photo equipment and recorders.

Unfortunately they can not mention who the main mastermind because all orders are given by phone and the payment is sent in cash, not bank transfer.”

“Why don't papa sue Sarah all of you?”

“You understand the law, Rey. It is possible to sue someone if there is no hard evidence. At that time my father wanted to get away from Sarah, but he sent me some photos that you saw yesterday. What was sent was not his vulgar part. And it's true that Sarah also has a video recording.”

“During this Papa is supported by strong people, why be afraid to urge Sarah to give her original photos and videos ?”

“Sarah is the biological child of Narendra and Amora. What you have cannot compare to the power that Narendra had let alone 5 years ago. After all Sarah promised that mom and you would not know anything as long as papa obeyed all her will.”

“Did papa ever do it again with Sarah after that night ?” Reyhan narrowed his eyes while playing the pen on the table.

“No Rey, never. Papa would never have done it if Sarah hadn't used the demon pill on papa. Papa's not crazy enough to fuck Amora's daughter. Having a child with Amora is a papa mistake that can never be forgiven even though mom allows because of her health condition.”

“Then what does Papa want from me ?”

Peter Gilang was silent for a moment while turning off his laptop .

“If Papa can be honest, there is relief because papa's problem with Sarah finally known to you and your mama until Sarah will not be easy to make you a threat other than the photo and video.

Papa hopes to be with you and mama to find out where Sarah kept the original file of the photo and video.

If until the one-night scandal was circulated on social media or handed to journalists, the condition of your mother and your life is a consideration papa. That's why for almost 5 years, papa always obeyed the wishes of Sarah.”

“Papa has prohibited him from approaching you and instead threatens him with evidence that papa has but Sarah does not care because for him the evidence that papa has is not strong compared to the video evidence he has.

The last time Sarah asked me again what if she really fell in love with you, could papa give her blessing and everything would she consider even ?”

Peter Gilang let out a long sigh and closed his eyes for a moment.

“And Papa agrees by pretending not to know about my relationship with Sarah ? Papa let me so that Papa's past could be buried deep by asking Sarah to hand over all the evidence she has ?”

Reyhan kicked the table while standing up. His face flushed red withstanding the anger that finally exploded as well.

Reyhan kicked the chair he had been sitting on violently and walked out.

“Reyhan !” call Peter Gilang in a soft but firm voice to make Reyhan only hold the door handle and have not opened it.

“Sorry that Papa used your feelings to escape Sarah's threat. It's just that Papa did not think that your relationship with him was the same because of feelings of revenge. That's why Sarah so easily comes into your life.”

“That's all because Papa never learned frankly to me !” reyhan shouted in a voice full of emotion.

“Is it because I was born of a Sicilian mama that my life is no more precious than the children of Amora, papa's true love?”

“Reyhan !” Peter Gilang instead kicked the table while standing and staring at his only son.

“Why ? Papa is angry because that's the truth ? Papa can never erase papa's feelings on Amora, Papa's first love?”

Plaque !

Peter Gilang's hands floated slapping Reyhan's unmoved cheeks, returning his father's gaze with anger and disappointment.

“If you doubt your mother's feelings and love, ask her directly. Let your mother judge what she felt during our marriage. You are more valuable than your own life, therefore you do not want you to repeat the mistakes you made in the past.

Papa let you be with Sarah because you can see the true love of both of your hearts. Papa wishes Sarah could change because of you. Papa hopes that all this anger and hatred will end because love is no longer because of mutual use. Papa did not expect that he would reveal all his threats even when you just lost the seeds of your love.”

Reyhan was flirting in his position. His cheeks felt a little sore but not as painful as his heart.

“Stop being a vengeful human being because everything will never end and it will hurt each other even more. If you love Sarah as you have seen all this time, love him as he is and strive to provide the warmth of love so that the anger and resentment in his heart can be changed with a heart that is sincerely loving, just like your mother has been doing all this time.

If you can repeat time in life, you will not comply with the request to marry your mother. Not because papa does not love him but precisely because papa does not want to always hurt your mama and hurt yourself too, in the name of love.”

Peter Gilang's eyes looked reddened withstanding the sadness in his heart.

“Your mother repeatedly told papa to go and remarry, but papa persisted and did not want to stay away from your mother in the slightest.

Papa survives not because he wants to atone for the guilt of your mother, but because of the love of your father who will never be able to get away from you under any circumstances.

Right now, just an apology that you can give to those of you who have been hurt many times because of papa's negligence. Sorry Rey, sorry papa.”

Peter Gilang took his laptop and walked past Reyhan, out of the room because he could no longer see the sadness, disappointment and anger in Reyhan's eyes.
