Papa's Last Request

Papa's Last Request
Secret


A day in the hospital makes them tired. Finally, when the hour hand showed the number three in the afternoon, they decided to go home. Bram should not be visited by anyone including his family, so waiting there is like doing something futile.


Downstream office employees and relationships who come to the hospital want to swipe, making them really overwhelmed.


Bram himself is still in a coma even though his critical time is over. Various kinds of hoses and medical devices stuck to his body.


"Please explain everything."


Tania looked at Nero and Ovi alternately. Currently they were gathered in the room after arriving home. His face looked weak and tired. Ovi from earlier helped to massage his sore shoulders.


He's lost his taste, all mixed into one. Seeing the condition of his weak papa, endless cries stopped from morning until his tears dried up.


"Tania, it's really hard if we tell you. It's your own papa's request that we all keep it a secret."


Ovi took a deep breath as she started the conversation. This can no longer be kept secret. Bram himself is in a coma. So it's time he told me everything.


"But I knew from the beginning that no one could handle it well."


"Your father's been handled well, honey. We're all monitoring his health" Nero said.


"I'm the only one who doesn't know, right?" Sharp look. His accusation caused something to throb in Nero's heart.


"It's all your papa wants, son. You were on the exam for class. Papa doesn't want your lessons to be disturbed. So he kept it a secret." Ovi replied.


"But that doesn't mean I can't know, right?" He sobbed again. Both hands covered his face.


"Honey. We've only known this couple of months. Mas Bram kept his illness a secret." Nero defended himself.


"You're evil. You all lied to me!" His voice began to rise.


"Go!" Tania looked at her husband sharply. Nero's grip on the shoulder, brushed aside violently. He doesn't want to see someone who has lied to him.


Ovi gave the code for Nero to exit.


The man nodded obediently. With a shunt he left his wife's room. I don't know where he's going to cheer up. From the beginning there were many accusations that made his heart uncomfortable. I think he wants to end this marriage.


***


"Tania. You can't be the same Nero" Ovi said after the man left the room.


It's not her place to interfere in other people's domestic affairs. For some reason, his nephew was indeed to be advised. At a young age, there are many things about marriage that are not yet known.


"He lied aunty. Last night he said papa was in good health. I suspect I keep asking, is papa sick? He said it's okay. He's the closest papa, right?"


"Tania. Nero was so at your papa's request. He did it because he had to." Ovi tried to calm down.


"Including my marriage?" His eyes glared, unable to believe what his aunt was saying.


What's this about? There's so much he doesn't know.


"Tania listen to auntie!" Ovi let out a long breath before speaking. "After knowing he was sick, your father did therapy without our knowledge. When the cancer spread, papa you made a big decision that we ourselves can not argue."


"But why can't I know?" Her tears are shining.
