Della

"Never mind, don't stay late lamenting all this," said Maria again stroking my back.

My heart warms, my chest flutters near him. So comfortable even though at this time the heart feels broken and fragile.

"My sister, I am sad to see her like that. Keep on crying for me."

"Sis Vania is strong, really. She is a strong and tough woman."

Sis Vania is the second greatest and strongest woman after my mother. She has taken care of me since I was a baby, after my mother left us.

We're ten years apart, that's why he took care of me when my mother died. Sis Vania so sincerely loves, never complained at all when he was a teenager, he spent just taking care of me.q

Now, seeing him hurt like that my heart hurts so much. What should I do for her?

Even when my father died, it was Vania who looked so strong and strong. Not like me who continues to dissolve and sink into sadness.

If only I could touch him right now, I wanted to strengthen her as she strengthened me.

Tok! Tok! Tok!

A knock on the door made Sis Vania immediately wipe her tears. Maria and I looked at the door at the same time.

"Who is he?" Maria asked me.

"I don't know," I said, continuing to stare at the person.

The girl can see me, while walking she keeps looking at me also looking at Maria in turn.

"Hey, you've come?" Sis Vania's voice sounded so hoarse again.

"Yes Sis, oh, yes, here I brought food for Sis. I bought it on purpose." The girl handed over a styrofoam box and a few bottles of drinks to Ms. Vania.

"Thank you, yes, Del. You were really good from the start," said Sis Vania, accepting the package from the woman's hand.

I guess I've seen it before? But where, huh? I muttered in my heart.

"Looks like that girl can see us," Maria whispered to me.

"I guess so," I answered quietly, continuing to look her in the eye.

Smile ... the girl smiled at us. Who's she?

"How is Tino, Sis?" She asked my sister, his eyes couldn't leave my eyes.

She looked so intently at me and Maria, she seemed so surprised to see us.

"There hasn't been a change..." said Sis Vania quietly.

"Oh, yes, sis. Don't ever sign that injection letter, okay!" His words sounded so firm.

"Yes, even earlier Roni still asked me to sign the sheet!"

"So?" She asked curiously.

"As usual, I refused. If I sign it, it's tantamount to killing my own sister..." Sis Vania's voice sounded so low.

"Yes sis. Rest assured, if Tino will recover." The woman also hugged Sis Vania, who was dissolved in her sadness.

Turns out, behind being strong and strong, Sis Vania is so fragile.

Maria and I got out of the room, lingering inside made me feel even more helpless.

"I'm curious about that girl," said Maria after we arrived at the edge of the lake.

"Yes, I feel like I've known her before but... I don't know," I answered doubtfully.

My memory is really bad, since the collision five years ago, I feel like I've lost half the memory data. If it's not really important, it won't be so memorable.

"Looks like he's looking for you, huh?" Maria's words made me look back spontaneously.

"You... Tino, right?" asked the woman who was now near the lake where we were sitting.

"You? Can you see me?" I asked without answering his question.

"Yes, I can see you, as well as your friend," he replied, looking at Maria with a smile.

"Who are you?" I asked curiously.

Is this an answer from God? Was she the one God sent to help me? Ah, my mind has gone all over the place apparently.

"Did you forget about me?" She asked in a slightly disappointed tone.

"Sorry, my memory isn't very good...." I replied shyly.

"I'm Della,"

"Della?" I tried to remember but still couldn't.

"That's enough. Just forget who I am, it really doesn't matter." That wry smile looks very disturbing to this heart.

I'm so uncomfortable with it.

"Della, so you can see us?" I asked again reassuringly.

"Yes. I couldn't believe it either. I thought it was just a hallucination. That's why I'm here to prove that I'm not hallucinating."

"Do you really not know me, Tino?" She continued.

"I have a feeling that we've met before, but somewhere, huh?" I answered doubtfully.

"Have you been able to see spirits before?" Maria asked Della.

"No. I can only see you guys right now. I don't know why I can see you guys...."

"Ah, yes, I remember now! You work in my office, right?" I saw a smile on Della's face. A sign that my guess was right.

"Yes, to be more precise, I am your employee, you can say your sister's confidant," she said with a smile.

"How is the office when I'm not around?" I asked her again, actually there are many things I want to ask Della.

"Everything is fine, don't worry. It's just that...." Della stopped her speech, there seemed to be some anxiety in it.

"Just what?" I asked with growing curiosity.

"Mr. Roni is in charge of everything." Della answered hesitantly.

"As I thought, that bastard would take a chance in a pinch!" I was furious to hear Roni's name, let alone to hear that he owns my company!

"Does Metta still come often?" I glanced at Maria before asking, for some reason I kept her feelings in check.

Even though we don't have any relationship. Weird.

"That's what I want to tell you. At first I wanted to be honest with Sis Vania... about..."

"About what?" I'm getting more and more curious about it.

Della, who began to hesitate to continue her words, seemed very nervous when she wanted to say it to me.

"About what!" I snapped at him, there was a bad feeling in my heart.

Is my guess right? I kept urging Della to continue, but she insisted on being quiet.

"Never mind, you'll find out by yourself. I'm scared," she replied.

"What are you afraid of?" Maria asked.

"No! Let's just pretend I didn't say anything. I'll go first, yeah. If you have time, you come to the office and see for yourself ... that's if you can go far." That look of pity was directed at me.

I hate that look, a look that seems to give me pity.

My name is Valentino Alberthus, born and raised in a fairly respectable family.

Before your father died, he had told us; me and my sister, about the daughter in her past.

Her name is Rani, the daughter of her best friend – Om Bram – with her mistress. Rani was born from the womb of a woman named Mega.

Before Om Bram died, he entrusted Rani to my father. Asks father to regard Rani as daughter.

However, my mother vehemently opposed the request. With a heavy heart, my father left him in an orphanage. Because my father did not know where his mother was at that time.

The orphanage also assumes that the father is Rani's parents.
