Regardless of what happened at the time, Maya felt her legs could not be moved at all. His lips were mute as if his tongue was stiff and unable to speak. Only his eyeballs could be moved at this moment.
When her husband woke up, he found his wife lying stiff with her eyes open. "Ma, what's wrong with you?" Ask Maya's panicked husband.
He calls Tommy and Tommy suggests that the mother be taken to the hospital.
While in the hospital, doctors diagnosed Maya as having a stroke
"It's still healing, right doc?" Ask the husband.
"It's possible to be cured, sir. But it may be a bit long" said the doctor.
After that Maya was advised to stay in the hospital for a few days. "Let me take care of my mother, you go home with your father," Irene offered herself ungoverned.
"Is it okay? Let me wait for you" said Tommy. He felt it was his responsibility to look after his parents.
"It's okay, Mom. You go to the office. You can visit your mom after work." Tommy said so to his wife.
Maya really can't move her limbs. Even talking he had difficulty.
Irene approached when she saw the mother-in-law making a sound as if she wanted something. "Mama wants what? Does your mom want a drink?" Maya could only nod answering her daughter-in-law's questions.
Irene patiently gave Maya a drink. He raised his upper body slightly so that Maya would not choke while drinking. It also had to be helped by Irene using a straw.
After that Irene raised the blanket that Maya used. Irene went out for a while to call Cindy.
"Cin, today I can't work. My mother-in-law had a stroke so I had to take care of her" Irene said, asking Cindy for permission.
"I am sad to hear it. Take care of your father-in-law until he is healed. He needs you more than I do. Don't worry about the shop. Irma and I can handle it" Cindy answered by phone.
"What's the matter, baby?" Ask Devon.
"Tommy's mother was in the hospital because she had a stroke" Cindy replied.
"That's so tatian. Did Irene ask permission not to enter work?" Cindy answered her husband's question.
"Mas, let me help Irma at the store. I just keep an eye on my employees. I promise I won't be tired." Cindy tried to convince her husband.
Devon thought for a moment to consider Cindy's request. "But remember you shouldn't touch any work. You just keep an eye on nothing more than that" Devon warned his wife.
Cindy smiled at her husband's possessiveness. "Every boss," Cindy replied with a joke.
After that Devon left with Ruby while Cindy left with Cello escorted by a driver.
...***...
Difficult times have been passed by Ruby. Although she is still traumatized but now after a few days not going to school, Ruby again set her foot where she studied.
"By, how are you? Where have you been all this time?" Ask one of his friends.
No one knows about Ruby's abduction. Devon tells the real incident to the principal but he asks her to keep it a secret to anyone. It was done so that Ruby felt comfortable back at school without having to answer questions that she did not want to hear about things that traumatized her.
"Look yuk!" Take Ruby without answering her friend's questions.
Today the schedule met with Tommy as a regular meeting held every Sunday.
"I heard your mother went to the hospital?" Devon asked as he greeted Tommy.
"Yes, right," answered Tommy listlessly.
"Patience!" Devon patted Tommy on the shoulder to strengthen.
"Oh yeah I didn't know when Ruby was kidnapped. I'm sorry I only found out when Irene told me," said Tommy regretfully.
"No problem. It's all over."
"So this is why Bayu didn't go to work, how many days did you give him?" Ask Tommy.
"Of course, I'm just saying he needs to rest to heal his wounds. But I didn't think he'd be home long."
Meanwhile at his home, Bayu forbids Irma from working. "But if I don't work Cassian Cindy. I was told that Tommy's mother went to the hospital so Irene didn't come in today. You know Cindy's pregnant. She should have been banned from her husband's work but since she wanted to accompany me she willingly denied her husband." Irma spoke at length to let Bayu work.
"But I'll be lonely if you're not home" whined Bayu like a child.
"Then go to the office. You'll join me at home." Irma looked at the clock that was coiled around her wrist. "I'm late, '" Irma kissed Bayu's cheek briefly and grabbed her car keys.
Bayu glared in disbelief that his wife left him at home and chose to work. "When I want us to immediately have a baby so I reasoned to my superiors to allow me a temporary leave of absence" muttered Bayu while choking annoyed.
Cindy arrives at the store first after she takes Cello to school. He greeted Irma with a smile. "You shouldn't have come. I'm afraid you're tired" said Irma, full of anxiety.
"I'm not sick why are you worried about me?" Cindy asked followed by a small laugh.
At the same time someone they knew walked into the store. "She?" Cindy frowned when she saw the woman who had teased their husbands suddenly coming.
"Do you want to cause trouble again?" Ask Cindy ketus.
"No, I'm here to apologize in person because I made a lot of mistakes. I realize I've hurt you" Lisa said earnestly. She hopes Cindy and Irma will forgive her.
Learning from his mistakes, he never had peace all this time. He continues to be haunted by guilt for his past mistakes.
"What makes you dare to apologize to us?" Search Irma.
"I've been reflecting a lot on the mistakes I've made. Every day I'm haunted by guilt. Being infuriated by so many people and not being trusted hurts me so much. I dare to apologize to you and the people I have hurt because I feel I am useless" Lisa said with a sad face.
Irma and Cindy looked at each other. They can't trust Lisa. He was like a thorn in the flesh that could at any moment stab into the skin.
"I beg your pardon" he said, resting at Cindy's feet.
"What are you doing?" Cindy felt bad.
...♥️♥️♥️...
Will they forgive Lisa?
