Chapter. 2 There Is a Debate Happening

I'll be happy to translate the passage into English for you:

"No ... not at all, Oma. It's just that right now Faith is focused on handling a big project there," Daddy Heru emphasized, trying to explain everything to his mother.

"Isn't there anyone else you can trust to handle the project, Heru?" Oma Meri asked insistently.

"Well, there are some options, Oma. But Faith is more exceptional than the others, especially as she's a competent CEO in her field," Mr. Heru continued to talk about the project and his son's significant role in its success.

His wife, Mrs. Rara, shook her head, observing her husband prioritizing his work in the company over his own mother's health.

Meanwhile, Oma Meri stared sharply at her son. "Oh, so you prioritize the company's affairs, Heru? Do you still lack money?" Oma Meri's crying could now be heard in the room.

Instantly, Mr. Heru felt overwhelmed with guilt. He realized he had been too selfish.

"Is it wrong if I ask to meet my grandchildren one last time?" Oma Meri's sadness deepened.

"Lovlyta has been studying in London since college, and she's never set foot in Jakarta. As for Faith, she's been living in New York for ten years now and hasn't returned to Indonesia. Heru, what do you want from your children? Is the wealth I left behind not enough, the abundance that can support your seven future generations? Is that not sufficient?" Oma Meri felt incredibly lonely.

Her mother-in-law's tears also saddened Mrs. Rara. She realized that what Oma Meri had said was true. Their two children, Faith and Lovlyta, had never visited their grandmother.

No wonder Oma Meri felt so lonely, especially with her husband and herself being so occupied with the company. This led Oma Meri to be cared for by Mr. Danu's family.

Mrs. Rara was determined to bring Oma Meri's beloved grandchildren, Faith and Lovlyta, to see her. No matter what it took. Despite Mr. Heru's hesitation.

"Daddy, what more needs to be discussed? Don't you have any pity seeing Oma's condition? She longs for her two grandchildren. Is that so hard to fulfill now?" Mrs. Rara insisted.

"Mommy, you also need to consider that Lovlyta is about to complete her master's degree. Meanwhile, Faith is very busy with the company. It might be better to reschedule their return." Mr. Heru argued with his wife.

The couple debated, causing Oma Meri to feel a headache just listening.

"Ah! Rara and Heru never stop arguing. These two, they never change! From the past to now, they're always arguing! My head might burst from hearing their arguments," Oma Meri muttered.

Oma Meri fidgeted with her smartphone, feeling restless as the medical team had not yet arrived, even though the hospital was one of her private assets.

"Why haven't the doctors arrived? I want these two removed from my sight!" Oma Meri complained inwardly.

Oma Meri's ears grew hot as she listened to the endless arguments between the two couples. Mr. Heru and Mrs. Rara.

Sometimes, Oma Meri couldn't understand her son and daughter-in-law. They always argued about anything. Their thoughts never aligned on any matter. Nevertheless, their marriage has endured until now.

"Maybe this is what they call the power of love," Oma thought.

Shortly after, the medical team arrived in Oma Meri's lavish treatment room.

All the specialist doctors gathered in the room, led by Dr. Roland, the hospital's head.

"Good morning, Mr. and Mrs. Hoewar. Sorry to disturb your morning," Dr. Roland began.

"It's not a problem, Doctor. We're not busy right now. We were discussing something," Mr. Heru said, clearly bothered by many doctors in the room, which temporarily halted his heated argument with his wife.

Oma Meri, on the other hand, continued to glare at her son, indicating her displeasure with the doctors' arrival.

"Please, tell us, Doctor. What's going on? Why has everyone come here? Is there an emergency?" Mr. Heru inquired.

Seeing Mr. Heru's discomfort due to the crowded room, Dr. Roland explained the situation.

"Well, Mr. Heru," Dr. Roland explained Oma Meri's illness. Both husband and wife remained silent, listening attentively to every word from the doctor.

Meanwhile, Oma Meri pretended to be weak and fell asleep to dramatize her condition.

"What?" Both the husband and wife were startled by Dr. Roland's diagnosis.

Mr. Heru wanted to interrupt the doctor, but Dr. Roland quickly said, "I haven't finished explaining yet, Mr. Hoewar."

"Very well, Doctor. Please continue," Mr. Heru said.

"So, with Oma Meri's current condition, several possibilities exist. Something unwanted could happen to her," Dr. Roland explained.

Once again, the husband and wife were taken aback by Dr. Roland's diagnosis, a highly respected senior doctor in the hospital.

Tears welled up in Mrs. Rara's eyes as she looked at her sleeping mother-in-law.

"Doctor, what should we do now to ensure Oma Meri's speedy recovery?" Mrs. Rara asked, her voice filled with sorrow.
