Mahendra was moved by the willingness of his granddaughter Ivona, who still treated him well. No matter what happened in the past, it cannot be repeated in the present moment. The grandfather and grandson talked about many things, and more Ivona told Mahendra about his life. While busy they were chatting, from the door was seen Mahendra's bodyguard enter and salute the old man.
"Great Master.., would like to report if the two people whom the Great Lord invited had already descended into the lobby." the bodyguard reported that the person who was waiting had arrived. Mahendra glanced at Ivona for a moment, and saw the girl drinking coffee from a cup directly.
"It was directed to enter this room only! Has there been any word from Richard and Frans?" before the bodyguard returned to the room, Mahendra asked again.
"It looks like they're already on their way here, Great Lord. Permission to take both guests to come to this room." the bodyguard bent down, then walked out of the room.
"Nana.., there's something Grandpa wants to meet you this afternoon. Not for nothing, but grandfather wants to end everything calmly, and grandfather can spend old age without any heavy thoughts." suddenly in a heavy voice, Mahendra looked at Ivona's face. The girl placed the cup on the table, then looked at Mahendra with many questions in her mind,
"I mean grandpa..?" ivona asked in a soft tone.
"Please wait a minute, there's something I want to meet you with. And my grandfather's hope, your presence here can help grandfather to get forgiveness from the people who will come." Mahendra said with a soft word.
Ivona and Mahendra were silent in their minds, and suddenly the door opened from outside the room. Seeing who she currently saw in front of her, Ivona felt disbelief. The girl rubbed her eyes hard, but what she saw remained the same.
"Mamaaaa...., isn't that what Ivona is seeing right now?" the girl ran over to Carminda who was walking behind Mahendra's bodyguard. Next to the middle-aged woman, Doctor Rafi smiled to see the princess was also in the room.
"Nana.. my daughter.." full of joy, Carminda hugged her daughter's body tightly. Tears flowed from the eyes of the two women. Mahendra looked at the interaction in front of him with a sense of happiness, despite the embarrassment lodged in his heart. Ivona invites her mother to sit on the sofa, and Doctor Rafi follows Carminda to a seat.
After a while they hugged each other and held hands, Ivona was aware that the role of her grandfather Mahendra could bring Mama and Doctor Rafi in front of her at this time.
"Grandfather..., is this all the role of grandfather?? Mama and Doctor Rafi could be in front of Ivona right now." Ivona released a hug from Carminda, then asked Mahendra. Hearing a question from his grandson, Mahendra smiled wryly then nodded his head. Seeing that, without being asked and without hesitation, Ivona approached and tightly hugged the old man's body. Carminda looked at her daughter's interaction with Mahendra with a flat gaze. The woman did not have any reaction, and Doctor Rafi immediately took the middle-aged woman's hand and grasped it tightly.
"May you be happy Nana. Grandfather tried to keep Carminda here, to accompany you on a happy day," Mahendra said, and Ivona frowned, not understanding the old man's words.

After a while
"Carmind...., if I can still ask, will you forgive this old man Carminda? Because of my past selfishness, you and Ivona had to separate from Frans, "in a stifled voice, Mahendra started the conversation by apologizing to Carminda. Hearing the old man's words, everyone in the room fell silent. No one dared to interrupt the conversation.
"Sorry for what the Great Lord..? Huh.., everything has already happened and has happened. Indeed this is a way of life that I have to go through, get married, be left behind. But it did not cause disappointment in me. The experience made me stronger, able to educate my daughter Ivona very well, and finally I can really understand who the man who truly loves me is. Thank you honey.., you're always with me, strengthening me, and not even letting me be alone." smiling, Carminda turned to her husband Doctor Rafi sitting next to her. In front of everyone, without any hesitation, Carminda gave a confession to her husband in front of everyone. A gentle kiss on the man's lips, given by Carminda.
Seeing the scene in front of him, Frans' face turned red withstanding anger. But he was unable to do anything, because his treatment of Carminda in the past was not easy to get sorry. Richard was speechless at the communication of the parents in front of him, and he decided not to make a sound, because it was not his capacity.
"Because I ordered Johnny to do all this. Because of me, you and Frans became separated, and when it emerged my idea to reunite you, it turned out that Doctor Rafi had preceded him." said Mahendra. Hearing the old man's words, there was anger in Ivona's heart. But glancing at her mother, the woman smiled at her.
"Grandfather.., I apologize if Nana interrupts and damages the atmosphere. It seems like grandfather needs to think first before saying anything. Nothing will ever be put back together, Papa Frans must think back about his mistakes. Let it all pass like a plot of fate, and thank you Papa Rafi. Let this daughter of yours call you papa. Papa Rafi's efforts have proven that mama Carminda is indeed very valuable." suddenly the sentences conveyed Ivona seemed to slap Grand Master Mahendra and Frans. Richard simply stared at his sister, without having any desire to prevent it.
Carminda smiled and rubbed Ivona's head. The girl was growing up, and would always be in front to protect her.
"Thank you, my daughter." - whispered Mrs Carminda in the girl's ear.
"Nana has to say what mom has to say. Let all the events of the past be a lesson to all of us. We don't need to remember it, and all you need to know. At any moment, Mama will be in Nana's heart. Mama is the best." Ivona kissed the middle-aged woman's hand. Mahendra nodded and smiled wryly at the incident.
