Beautiful in pain

A single tear trickled down her cheek gently running down to the tip of her chin. Her slender fingers gently stroked the tips of the eyebrows and the baby’s thin hair. The baby squirmed with sobs and cries that were about to break out, but Hana swiftly swung the baby in her arms.

“Mama is not crying, I’m sorry Mama.” Hana smiled at the baby while occasionally looking at David who was still closing his eyes on the hospital bed, only the three of them were inside.

“Don’t you want to see this baby? David wake up, not only I’m worried about you. But this little baby too, mommy and daddy are also waiting for you, please wake up. Aren’t you tired of sleeping up there?” Hana looked down at the little angel’s eyes again with his eyes closed, the fragile body squirming a little in her arms.

“Four more days Adriel will have his trial, and today I will go to see him there. There is something I want to tell him David, and I hope he can accept it all. I’m sorry,” Hana held back the tears that wanted to come out of her eyes. “I wanted to hold on, but I can’t seem to take it anymore. I’m sorry, sorry again.”

…

Feeling nervous, very nervous and worried. Her legs stiffened for a moment, the baby she was carrying was carried out of the room. There were already Rita, Farrell, Jeffran, and Tamara. Tamara reached out her hand to take the little one from Hana’s arms.

“Are you ready to be a witness to what happened? Mommy hopes that your information will be very useful in this case.” Tamara confirmed her cradle to the baby.

“Yes mommy, please take care of the little one. Rita and I and Farrell go first.” Hana smiled at Rita, a smile with worry in it.

Rita grabbed Hana’s hand, patted it gently trying to calm her down as if she knew Hana’s current concern.

“We are with you, calm down. Farrell and I will accompany you at the police station.”

Hana replied with a small smile, her eyes returned to the different baby in Tamara’s arms.

“Pray for Mama”

Hana took a deep breath when her feet entered the police station where Adriel was temporarily detained, she had gathered her courage.

Before giving information to the police, Hana first went into a different room to meet Adriel there, there was something she wanted to talk to Adriel about. One officer brought Adriel who came without his hands in handcuffs.

Right in front of Hana, in a chair that was only blocked by one table, the two of them sat opposite each other. Adriel with his head down and Hana with her eyes darting around in nervousness, she didn’t know where to start.

“How are you? And how is the baby? Why did you come here?” Adriel asked first, he dared to raise his voice but kept his face down.

“I’m fine and my baby’s condition is fine. He’s very healthy, and I came here of course to fulfill the police call to give information, thank you in advance for helping me.” Hana looked at Adriel who kept his head down, his hands together on the table.

“It’s not appropriate for you to thank me Hana, that’s what I should have done. I’m sorry.”

Hana shook her head.

“No Adriel, you don’t need to apologize.”

Adriel smiled a little, was this the gentle and sincere man he had hurt all this time? How come he never saw that kindness? What makes you blind and deaf? He has such a perfect partner, there is no flaw in Hana. Or is it just him who is handicapped, blind and deaf.

“I should be the one apologizing. Actually there’s something I want to tell you here. And I hope you agree.”

Hearing the request from Hana, Adriel’s head lifted to look at the sweet man, he saw Hana was taking something from the bag he was carrying, he reached for a moment and he took a folder inside. Hana looked at the map for a while and thrust it at him.

“What’s this?” asked Adriel who looked at the map that was still closed.

“Just open it, these few days Rita and I took care of it, I really hope for you.”

His hand raised to open the folder out of extreme curiosity, his eyes rolling to read every line in the court-approved letter. Only him left.

Divorce document.

“What do you mean Hana?” he asked still looking at the contents of the document.

“I want to part with you Adriel.”

Adriel instantly looked at Hana’s slightly wistful eyes.

“But I don’t want to part with you Hana, why? Why is it like this. I won’t agree to it!”

“Adriel, I knew from the start you didn’t love me. You don’t want me, I’m aware of that, so please sign the document.”

Right before Hana’s eyes, Adriel tore the paper into small pieces.

“I won’t sign it! Did you not hear what I said?! So please don’t ask that again.”

Hana’s eyes are misty, why now?

“Adriel please, he’s not your son after all.”

“Who said he’s not my son?! Of course he’s mine.”

Adriel banged the table, he really didn’t agree with Hana’s statement.

“I already know everything Adriel, so please. Stop pretending. Wasn’t at the beginning of the agreement with Daddy if the DNA didn’t match yours, then I was just a con. Adriel.” Hana looked down not daring to look at Adriel, her voice started to choke because of the tears she was holding back as much as possible.

Adriel stood up walking closer to Hana’s chair.

USE.

Unexpectedly a stubborn Adriel Vikrama is now kneeling in front of a Hana with both hands on his thighs.

“Hana please, I don’t want to part with you. You are not a swindler you are completely innocent, I am the bad one here, I am the criminal. So please don’t part with me, please punish me in any way. You can put me in jail longer , you can not give information to the police. But don’t punish me like this, please don’t do this, I’m sorry Hana. Sorry.”

Hana turned her seat to face Adriel who was kneeling on her, she got off the chair and squatted right in front of Adriel.

“Adriel wake up, don’t be like this. I have forgiven you. But to be with you I can’t.

BUK…

Adriel pulled Hana’s different body in front of him, hugged her warmly until Hana’s head was now sinking into his shoulder.

“No no, I can’t. I can’t be separated from you. Never.”

Hana gently pushed Adriel’s body, but Adriel didn’t want to let go.

“Adriel…”

“I love you Hana, love you very much. Sorry for my mistakes all this time, please don’t leave me. Sorry, sorry.”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Adriel cries, a Adriel cries in front of her without shame. Her pride had really been destroyed just for the sake of the sweet girl she had hurt.

“I’m sorry Adriel.” This time Hana managed to escape.

“Sorry Mrs. Hana, but it’s time for your turn to give information. And time for Mr. Adriel to return.”

Hana stood in front of Adriel and walked out of the room. In another room Rita was already waiting for her.

“HANA! I will never sign that document! You will still be my wife. That child is my son! Remember what I said Hana Vikrama!”

Hana walked away from the room, but she still heard Adriel’s screams in there.

“I’m sorry Adriel. But I have to do this.”
