Viona and Adam goto out of the car to walk because the car could no longer pass, because the road to the orphanage had been blocked by several large cars that stop on the main road to the orphanage.
"What's wrong, Adam? Why are there so many big trucks like this?" Viona asked Adam quietly.
"I also didn't know. There usually are not many trucks like this around here," Adam replied confusedly.
As long as he lived in the orphanage, this was the first time he saw a lot of trucks parked in that place. Out of curiosity, Viona finally followed the trucks by continuing to walk forward, where she saw many men working to unload goods from inside the truck. Viona, who had just arrived in front of the orphanage, looked shocked when she saw the things in the orphanage in the yard.
"Mom, are we moving away?" Viona asked in a panic to Mrs. Deborah, who was standing watching the workers unloading the things from inside the orphanage.
"No, Miss, we will not move," said Fernando, suddenly emerging from behind the truck, smiling broadly at Viona.
Thump!
Viona immediately fell silent when she saw that Fernando was beside Mrs. Deborah. She should have known from the start that Fernando was the brain of all the oddities that happened at the orphanage this afternoon.
"You ... I mean you want to move to the orphanage or ..."
"Hey, beautiful child, here let me tell you the truth," said Mrs. Agnes, interrupting Viona's words, while pulling Viona towards her.
Soon, Mrs. Agnes began to tell her the truth about what happened. When Mrs. Agnes had told her, Viona was seen repeatedly massaging her forehead which did not hurt. She even took a deep breath when Mrs. Agnes explained in detail what Fernando had done for the orphanage where she lived.
"So all the belongings ..."
"Yes, all of our belongings are replaced with this new items by the kind-hearted master. All of our items are replaced, child," said Mrs. Agnes excitedly.
"Look at your siblings, they were very happy when they saw that their mattress was replaced with the number one quality mattresses, child. They even kept screaming saying they couldn't wait to sleep," Mrs. Agnes added, pointing to the children who were sitting sweetly, staring at the workers putting their new mattresses into the orphanage.
Viona only smiled thinly at the younger siblings. The sisters and brothers of the orphanage sat nicely, looking expectantly at the workers who were putting things into the orphanage. As long as they lived in the orphanage, this was the first time they felt they had new things because they always got used goods from the donations of the rich people. Viona even had tears in her eyes when she saw how innocent her siblings were, sitting in a neat line on the chairs in the garden in front of the orphanage.
"They are very grateful to have these things, child. I could not bear to refuse Mr. Fernando's request when he said he wanted to replace all the things in the orphanage with new things," whispered Mrs. Deborah quietly while touching Viona's shoulder.
"Yes, Mom, we can't refuse a blessing from God like this," Viona replied, sobbing, hiding her tears from her mother.
"Say thanks to Mr. Fernando, child. You're the only one who have not thanked the kind-hearted master," said Mrs. Deborah again.
"Only me? There's also Adam who ..."
Viona couldn't finish her words when she saw Adam was talking to Fernando. She could even see Adam's expression, who was saying thank you to Fernando repeatedly. Viona knew that Adam really admired Fernando, as evidenced by Adam's praises to everyone in the orphanage about Fernando after Fernando returned to the city yesterday afternoon. He told them how great Fernando Gray Willan was, who was successful at a young age. He also told about the size and beauty of Fernando's Global Bross Hospital, which supplied medicines to his clinic when many hospitals rejected his proposal at that time.
"Come on, it's your turn, child," Mrs. Deborah said, gently broke Viona's daydreams.
"I'll ... I'll just wait when everything is finished," Viona replied stammering. She wasn't ready to talk privately with Fernando.
"We have to be people who know how to thank people, my child, because there aren't many good people like Mr. Fernando, who was willing to spend a lot of money to replace all the things in our home, child," said Mrs. Deborah quietly.
"Yes, Mom, I know," Viona replied softly.
Mrs. Deborah smiled at Viona's attitude. Her hand which was carrying a paper bag filled with mochi was shaking. The old woman knew that her daughter still loved her husband, who was busy with Adam helping the workers tidy up the decorations in the orphanage. Fernando insisted on helping even though Adam had forbidden him. He even took off his expensive coat and rolled up his shirt sleeves while working. Even though Fernando did not take off his shirt, but his broad chest muscles could be seen clearly because he opened the top two buttons of his shirt. Without Viona realizing it, her face turned red when she saw Fernando was working like that. The reason was that so far she had never seen Fernando sweat like that, except when they were making love.
Thump!
"Ah!" Viona screamed while kneeling suddenly, clutching her chest which hurt, so that it made Mrs. Deborah and Mrs. Agnes shocked.
"What's wrong with you, child?" Mrs. Deborah asked in panic.
"My child, what's wrong with you? Why are you holding your chest?! Does it hurt?" Mrs. Agnes asked, no less panicked.
Viona was just silent and did not answer the questions of her two mothers. She also did not know why her chest suddenly hurt when she remembered about her life with Fernando in the mansion. The pain and disappointment for Fernando was still deeply rooted in her heart, so when she remembered about the sweet things she had been through with Fernando, her body reacted. Fernando, who was carrying a photo frame into the orphanage, immediately put the photos on the table when he saw Viona was sitting on the ground. He immediately ran towards Viona quickly.
"Honey ... Vio, what's wrong with you?" Fernando asked in panic when he arrived beside Viona. He accidentally blurted out calling Viona affectionately in front of Mrs. Agnes and Mrs. Deborah, who did not realize Fernando's call to Viona.
"Vio ..." Fernando said softly while touching Viona's trembling hand.
"Don't touch me!!" Viona said in a loud voice, while shaking Fernando's hand that touched her.
"You're the one who hurt me, Fernando, I hate you," Viona said softly so that only Fernando heard Viona's words, because Mrs. Agnes was standing, guarding Mrs. Deborah, who looked very worried about Viona.
Thump!
Fernando was immediately stunned to hear Viona's words. His face that looked very worried suddenly turned sad and full of grieve. Viona slowly got up from the ground. She then walked to the lake, leaving Fernando with Mrs. Deborah and Mrs. Agnes speechless.
"Patience, son," said Mrs. Deborah quietly to Fernando.
"I know, Mom, it must be hard for her to forget everything that has passed," Fernando replied softly.
Mrs. Deborah held Fernando's hand firmly to encourage her favorite child's husband. Fernando finally smiled when he felt Mrs. Deborah's hand gripped him.
"I will not give up, Honey, you will definitely come back to me as soon as possible," Fernando said to himself as he looked at Viona, who was sitting on a large rock beside the lake.
