Hani faced her back to her son and quickly wiped her tears. After that he went from his seat with Abhiyasa to their son.
Hani sits in front of his son. He smiled and gently rubbed his cheek as he said,
"Mama didn't cry because of Aksa. Mama's crying because Mama's hungry."
"Is that really Ma?" aksa asked as if she did not believe the words of her mother.
"really. If Aksa doesn't believe it, Aksa can ask Papa. Isn't it Pa?" hani answered while turning to Abhiyasa to ask for his support.
Abhiyasa smiled and nodded his head. He sat down beside Hani and gently rubbed his son's hair as he said,
"What Mom said was absolutely right. My mom would cry if she was too hungry. So, this hero of Mama and Papa has nothing to worry about. Mama's fine."
Aksa looked back at his mother. He seeks truth from the eyes of his mother. Then he said,
"Yes, I'd better eat it now. Aksa is fine Ma. And if Papa takes Mama to the cafeteria, Aksa dares to be alone here. Don't worry about Aksa. Mama and Papa's kids are already big."
Hani and Abhiyasa chuckled at the words of their son. From there Hani believes that his son is brave, just like his father. And he also hopes that Aksa's courage can bring good impact to the operation and recovery process.
"It's better that Papa buys us food. And we eat together here. Can it be Pa?" ask Abhiyasa.
Abhiyasa smiled and moved from his seat. Then he looked at his wife and son in turn and said,
"Good idea Ma. Papa buys food. Mama and this Papa whiz sit back just waiting for Papa's arrival. Ok?!"
"Ok Papa!" hani and Aksa shouted together while pointing their thumbs at Abhiyasa.
Geck... Geck... Geck...
"I'm sorry, sir, ma'am, it's food for the patient" said one of the delivery men wearing the hospital uniform.
Abhiyasa immediately received the food and placed it on the table. Then he said,
"Aksa, honey, it's better for Aksa to eat this food first. This food has been arranged by the doctor so that Aksa quickly healed. Later, after Aksa recovers, Aksa can definitely eat anything as Aksa wishes."
Aksa smiled as she nodded her head. He also said,
"Yes Pa. Aksa ate it. Papa buy food for Mama and Papa."
After hearing the answer from his son, Abhiyasa immediately came out of the room to buy food.
After a while, Abhiyasa returned to his son's room. He smiled at the laughter of his son and wife who were joking at this moment.
Abhiyasa walked in with a bag containing two food boxes while smiling and saying,
"Gee... Whoa... Looks like Papa missed the fun?"
At once Hani and Aksa turned their attention to Abhiyasa. They both smiled seeing that Abhiyasa was back by this time.
Abhiyasa placed the food he had brought earlier on the table. Then he walked over to his wife and son.
"Come, we'll eat together now" Abhiyasa told his wife and daughter.
Suddenly Aksa's body was already in his papa sling. Abhiyasa smiled at him and said,
Aksa smiled and nodded her head. He looks very happy at the moment. Despite being ill, her mother and father were willing to leave their jobs to accompany her while she was in the hospital.
The three of them ate together on the sofa chair in the room. There were laughter and jokes as they ate together. The current situation does not change like their habit of eating at home. They always try to be able to eat together even if only eating breakfast and dinner. At the very least, with it they build the harmony of their family.

A day later, when Antonio's doctor visits Aksa's room to check her condition, Antonio's doctor talks to Hani and Abhiyasa.
"For the operating schedule we have scheduled next week. We give the patient time to prepare himself" said Antonio, looking at Abhiyasa and Hani in turn.
"Is it not too long, Doc? I'm afraid that our son will be bored for too long here" Hani said.
"Sir, Mom, I hope you and Mom can mentally prepare the patient when running the operation. The patient's mental state will affect the operation. Please encourage the son of Father and Mother so that he has a strong desire to heal. Because with a strong desire that will help also in our surgery later," said doctor Antonio explained the reason to schedule the operation to be done a week later.
"Is it within one week that our son should remain in care here, Doc?" tanya Abhiyasa represented the heartbreak of his wife.
Doctor Antonio sees Aksa who is already in good shape. Then he looked back at Abhiyasa and Hani in turn. He also said,
"If the patient wants to go home, we will allow with a record of his condition is fine. We will also tell you what to look after while at home."
Hani turned to her husband. He smiled and nodded his head. Abhiyasa smiled happily to hear the words of doctor Antonio. Then he said,
"If it is allowed to go home first, we better take our child home first doc. Because we're also worried that if he's here too long he'll be bored and later on the surgery will disturb his mentality."
"That's what I'm worried about, sir. Since the patient is still fine, we hope that the time lag we give will make him ready for surgery" said Antonio's doctor while staring at Hani and Abhiyasa alternately.
Hani looks happy and very enthusiastic. Then he said,
"Okay doc, thank you. We will take care of our son's return. But... Can we call the doctor at any time if something happens?"
"Please Mom, we will be ready for our patients, whenever it is," Antonio replied with a smile on Abhiyasa and Hani.
"Thank you doc" said Abhiyasa accompanied by Hani's thanks to doctor Antonio.
Doctor Antonio left the room. He told the nurse about Aksa's return for today.
Hani immediately withdraws Abhiyasa's hand to approach their son. With happy faces and happy smiles Hani and Abhiyasa sat in front of their son.
"Dear, Aksa, would you like to go home?" ask Hani with her big smile.
Aksa's eyes sparkled. He nodded his head and said with great enthusiasm,
"You're Ma."
"Okay, Papa's hotshot. We go home now yes," said Abhiyasa accompanied by a happy smile.
Aksa looked at his father and mother in turn and said,
"But Pa, Ma, does this mean Aksa is cured?"
Hani and Abhiyasa looked at each other. This is where their role as parents is tested. They both must be able to give understanding and encouragement to their sons to be ready and willing to be operated.
