"No, Dad. I don't want to!" Dion's chest rose and fell. His eyes stared intently at the man who was lying weakly on a typical hospital bed.
"But, Dion. Savira is a good girl, I want you to marry her," Purnawan said softly. His voice was low and almost inaudible. "How can there be a good woman who has a relationship with a married man? I will never marry Daddy's mistress!" Dion said then walked away leaving Purnawan.After Dion left, Purnawan rubbed his tight chest. Dion's words broke the sixty-year-old man's heart."You are always busy with your world, Dion. If you only knew how daddy is feeling right now," Purnawan said softly.The fat man was silent as he stared at the white ceiling of the room. Purnawan is a well-known palm oil entrepreneur throughout the country. He was lying helpless because of the complications he had suffered for the past two years.The body pain is incomparable to the feeling of loneliness that accompanies Purnawan. The child he hopes to be a color in his life is busy with his world. He never even considered Purnawan's existence.The sound of a phone call woke Dion from a deep sleep. The athletic-built man picked up the cell phone that was lying not far from his pillow. Annoyed, he pulled the phone up. "Dion, please go to the hospital now! Mr. Purnawan is critical," said Hendra, Purnawan's confidant.A smile appeared on the man's face. "Finally you die too, a man like you deserves to be in hell!" Dion said in his heart."Okay, I'll be right there."Dion's sports car drove at a moderate speed. He didn't want to rush to the hospital. For him, Punawan's death is a hope that will soon come true.After thirty minutes, Dion's four-wheeled vehicle stopped right in the hospital yard. He quickly ran to the ICU room."How's daddy doing?" he asked as he caught his breath."Sir could not be saved. He died five minutes ago," said Hendra with tears in his eyes."Daddy!" shouted Dion. His face started to cloud up. His athletic body fell at the door of the ICU room."Give me sir, Dion." Hendra rubbed his shoulder."Daddy, Hen... Daddy." Dion started to sob. The feeling of losing him made Hendra feel sorry."Mr. Purnawan's family?" asked a nurse."We are his family, Miss," answered Hendra."Please take care of the administration immediately.""Okay, Miss.""Sorry, Dion. I have to take care of administration first," he said then left Dion in front of the ICU room alone.After Hendra left, Dion immediately wiped away the traces of tears that had stuck to his cheeks."Finally you die too. Now all the wealth that you have will fall into my hands." Dion smiled when he imagined Purnawan's treasure that would pass into his hands.The man turned out to be good at acting. In public, he looks lost but behind his back, he laughs triumphantly.***"Tell me the contents of Daddy will!" Dion said as he stared intently at Ridwan."But it hasn't been forty days yet, Sir." "Whether now or tomorrow it's the same. Read right now the contents of my ex-husband's will.""B-but madam."Hendra shook his head seeing the attitude of Dion and Regina. Both people are like chameleons, the twinkling of an eye can change attitudes and behavior."It turns out that what Mr. Purnawan said was true, they are good at acting," said Hendra, but only in his heart."What's so difficult reading Purnawan's will? We have the right to know!" Regina snapped."How is it, Sir?" Ridwan asked, glancing at Hendra. The man knew that Hendra was Purnawan's confidant when he was still alive until now."Just say it, sir," said Hendra.With a bit of hesitation, Ridwan took out a piece of paper containing Purnawan's will before he died."All of Daddy's treasure will fall into my hands, right?" Dion asked with a meaningful smile."All of Mr. Purnawan's property and assets will fall into the hands of Mas Dion....""That's right, Mom. All of this will be ours," said Dion."Mommy is sure, this treasure can't fall into the hands of other people. You are the only child of Purnawan, and only you have the right to that!" Regina said with a triumphant smile."I'm not done yet, there's more to come.""Quickly say, what's next.""All of Mr. Purnawan's property and assets will fall into the hands of Mas Dion after Mas Dion marries Savira.""What!" Dion and Regina shouted at the same time."I don't want to marry Daddy's mistress. I don't want to!""Don't make it up, Ridwan! Purnawan can't let his biological son down!" Regina shouted. The woman in black clothes stood up and stared intently at Ridwan and Hendra. She was sure that the will that Ridwan read was fake."Tell me where the real will is!"Ridwan exhaled harshly. He knew this would happen. However, he never imagined that he would be accused of hiding Mr. Purnawan's will."This is the original letter, Mrs. Regina. It has Mr. Purnawan's signature." Ridwan showed him a piece of paper containing Mr. Purnawan's handwriting before he died."I'm sure this is fake, you guys must be working together to control my husband's treasure, right!" accused Regina with bulging eyes."This letter is legal in the eyes of the law!" Ridwan replied annoyed."No... It's impossible," Regina said as she dropped her body on the sofa. Occasionally his hands massage the head which feels increasingly spinning."One more thing, Dion must marry Savira within one month after reading the will. Otherwise, all of Mr. Purnawan's assets and assets will be donated to orphanages, charitable foundations, and nursing homes.""What!"Instantly Regina fell unconscious on the couch. Dion and Regina sat limply on the sofa. A few minutes ago Hendra and Ridwan had left Purnawan's residence. Regina's distrust made the lawyer of the late Purnawan inflamed. In the end, they chose to leave. Quiet and silent, the luxurious house that Purnawan used to live in alone felt uninhabited. There's no joint prayer, Dion and Regina were too busy taking care of the will that she forgot to hold the event. It's too late to pretend Forget. After all, Purnawan's death was a dream for both of them. Then why hold prayer if in their hearts they laugh happily?"How about this, Mom? I don't want to marry Daddy's mistress!" Dion said while massaging his throbbing head."Can't you keep quiet? Mom's head is about to explode! That old man is too much. Life is hard to die, it only adds to the suffering!" Regina scolded."Dion thought he would become a wealthy businessman. But in fact, destruction was in sight. Dion can't afford to live in poverty, Mom. What if Julia finds out I don't have anything? She will leave me."Dion and Regina kept arguing. Dion's dream to be a rich man has gone. Now only the shadow of poverty haunts me."This must be the old man's plan so that his mistress can live securely. Or could it be that cheap woman? She seduced your daddy! Oh my God, we missed Dion!" Various prejudices appear in the heads of the mother and child. They accuse Savira of being the culprit of the big problem they are currently experiencing. They don't seem to realize that all of this is the fruit of the tree that he planted himself. "You have to marry Savira, that's the only way so we don't fall into poverty," Regina said while touching Dion's shoulders. "Until whenever Dion will not marry that cheap woman!" Dion shouted as he brushed off Regina's hands. The man quickly stood up and walked out of the living room. "Where are you going, Dion? This problem isn't over yet!" Regina shouted. "Dion doesn't want to marry Savira. POINT!" he said then left his mother alone. "Dion stop!""Dion!"Dion continued walking regardless of his mother's call. He was getting bored and sick of his crazy requests to marry his fa
"That's it, those who leave won't be able to come back. You are still young Vira, you still have a long way to go, there are still many men waiting for you." Savira was still silent, unsure of what to answer. It is common knowledge that the relationship exists between Savira and Purnawan. The age difference is too far making their relationship filled with controversy. It was also what made Savira not ready when Purnawan proposed to her a few weeks ago.Regret. Yes, that feeling that perched in his heart. Not because he failed to own Purnawan's property. But he regretted that at the end of his life, Savira could not accompany him. He couldn't even come close. He was banned by Purnawan's ex-wife and son. "Do you want coffee, Ra?" asked Bram again, he tried to break the silence that occurred between them. "I ti ...." The sound of an ambulance siren cut him off. Savira quickly ran and opened the entrance to the emergency room.Bram snorted in annoyance, the ambulance came at the wrong
Savira's eyes widened when she saw a man coming out of there. Her hands clenched at the memory of Dion's treatment of her before. "What do you want?" asked Savira flatly. "Guests not welcome?" quipped Dion while staring at Savira without blinking. This was the first time Dion saw Savira without a head covering. White skin, a sharp nose, and a long neck made Dion not blink. Savira wears the headscarf only in the hospital, because of work demands. She felt that she was not fit to wear the headscarf even though she knew that wearing the headscarf was obligatory."You are not a guest, why would you come in?" "You don't know how to honor guests like your religion teaches you?" replied Dion while continuing to look at the face of the woman in front of him. Dion deliberately brought up religious teachings so that Savira would allow him to enter. The words that had just been spoken were barely audible to him. So far he only claims to be Muslim but he has never carried out his obligations
I Savira glared at the question that Bram had just asked. Even her mouth was wide open. Luckily no flies visited there. "The doctor isn't kidding, is he?" Bram didn't answer, instead, he was busy looking for the right way to pull over his four-wheeled vehicle."Do I look like I'm joking, Ra?" Bram stared intently at Savira's black beads. That look made Savira feel awkward and nervous. Silence, no words came out of their mouths. Savira chose to remain silent with confusion enveloping her heart. The problem with Dion isn't over yet but a new problem her befallen him."I've liked you for a long time, Ra. Long before you had a relationship with Mr Purnawan." Savira twisted the hem of the uniform she was wearing. She didn't expect the doctor the nurses liked to like her instead. "Savira, will you be my wife?" Bram held the woman's hand in it while locking the clear net.Savira's heart was beating fast, Bram's gaze was able to make the nervousness inside her even bigger. "I-I haven't
Savira glared at Dion's words. Then shook his head when he collided with Bram. The young doctor tried to arrange a heart that had been covered with anger. "Purnawan is dead but why did this man appear?" Bram thought annoyed. "You're crazy, Dion! We don't have any relationship!" Savira pushed away Dion's left hand that was holding her hand. More like holding hands."Let go! Don't force people!" Bram tried to let go of Dion's hand that was gripping Savira's arm. But failing, the man instead embraced Savira's body from the side. "Don't interfere, Savira and I are getting married soon. Don't bother other people's future wives!" Dion walked while embracing Savira's body."Let go Di!" Savira tried to push Dion's body but couldn't, the man's energy was much stronger. "Remember Savira, you are mine!" "Don't dream, I don't love you!" "I don't need love, I just need you." "Unreasonable!" Swear Savira with a beet-red face. "Your father has blessed us, we will get married in one week." "W
"Is it true that you sold me to Dion?" Those words finally came out of Savira's mouth. She had a hard time holding back her words so as not to hurt the hearts of her parents. But seeing Nurdin coming home with groceries made her chest rumble. The emotions she had been holding back were uncontrollable. Nurdin turned around, he just dropped the groceries on the floor. The middle-aged man stared intently at Savira, his teeth chattering with a beet-red face.Exhaling roughly, Savira looked away then turned around. She closed her front door tightly. Arguments that occur should not be seen by others. Shame was the word that was in Savira's mind. "Did you say selling? Father only accepts Dion's proposal, not sells you. You should be happy to be proposed to by a handsome man and what is certain is that he is well-established." Nurdin tried to cover up the truth by showing his anger. "You're not selling what you said? You received money from Dion so he could marry me, right? Isn't that cal
Savira rubbed Wati's nose with eucalyptus oil. The middle-aged woman slowly opened her eyes. The figure of a woman still wearing a nurse's uniform was seen for the first time. "Vira...." Wati whispered like a gust of wind. Gradually, grain by grain fell down Wati's cheek. "Is something wrong, Mom?" Savira watched every inch of Wati's body. However, she did not find anything in line with the wound on the body of the woman who risked her life when giving birth to her. "Mother's chest is tight?" asked Savira again.Wati shook her head and then returned to dropping her tears. As a mother, she feels guilty for not being able to protect her daughter. "Why are you crying? Tell me which part hurts, Mom? Savira will treat it later." "I'm sorry, son. I couldn't protect you from my father's selfishness." Wati sobbed the image of 50 million bills danced in her eyes. "Savira is fine Mom. Savira will return Dion's money," Savira answered doubtfully."50 million, Ra. Where does the money come
"I'll pay for it!" All eyes turned to the door, a well-dressed man stood in front of the door carrying a brown envelope filled with money. "Mr. Hendra!" "Hendra!" Savira and Dion said almost at the same time. The two people of different genders stared in surprise at the man who was now walking closer.Hendra dropped the weight right beside Savira. Making Dion who sat in front of him stare in disapproval. No, not because he was jealous but because a well-laid plan would fall apart. What more if Savira receives help from Hendra? "What did Mr. Hendra mean earlier?" Savira turned to her right, she stared intently at the translucent man sitting beside her. Hendra shifted the wooden chair he was sitting on so he could see Savira's pretty face up close. It is undeniable that there is a sense of interest when seeing Savira for the first time. However, Hendra realized that he was only a speck of dust when compared to Purnawan."I will give the money to pay off Dion's debt." "On conditio
