Sara took a deep breath, trying to calm herself. She knew that the anger and sadness that overwhelmed her could not be resolved with words alone. Maybe there was a way out, but it required the courage to face reality and open up.

She stared at the man, searching for answers in his eyes. In the depths of that gaze, she saw sincerity that could possibly be the beginning of recovery. Although her heart still felt heavy, there was a desire to fix the situation, to understand and forgive.

    Sebastian closed his eyes, feeling the guilt and regret that seemed to pile up and crush his chest. He thought back to the night of the accident when he swerved to avoid the car in front of him. The truck that came suddenly, the sound of the impact that echoed in his ears, and the pain that hit him—all those memories haunted him. Every detail of that night was clearly etched in his memory: the blinding light, the seconds that seemed to slow down as everything went into chaos. He felt as if time was repeating itself, trapped in a cycle of guilt that never ended. Dinda, who should have survived, was now lying helpless, and all of that felt like an unbearable burden. Sebastian held Dinda's hand tighter, trying to distract his mind from the painful memories. He wanted to turn the pain into strength, something that could help him fight for his daughter's recovery.

    Sebastian sat on the bed, feeling the silence that filled the room. The walls that usually held beautiful memories now felt heavy with sadness. Every corner reminded him of moments with Dinda, their laughter, and heartwarming conversations. Without Dinda's presence, the atmosphere became silent and confusing.He turned his gaze to the window, looking at the darkening sky.

If there was indeed evil intent behind the accident, he had to fight to uncover the truth. Sebastian fell silent, staring at the screen with mixed feelings of anger, confusion, and sadness. It seemed impossible for someone to plan this accident and even harder to accept that someone might have done it on purpose to harm him and Dinda. “Can we meet the driver?” Sebastian asked, his voice almost a whisper, full of hope for an answer. Lila shook her head slowly, her expression also showing disappointment. “The truck driver died instantly when the accident happened. His injuries were very severe, and he was pronounced dead at the scene.” Those words immediately dashed Sebastian’s hopes. “So… our information stops there?” “I’ve tried to find out more,” Lila continued in a calming voice. “I’m tracing his identity and looking for

    Sebastian's tears finally fell. "Daddy is here, honey," he said softly, his voice hoarse with the sadness he had been holding back for so long. "I'm sorry... if only Daddy could have done more to protect you. Daddy was too careless." Sebastian felt his heart break as he saw Dinda lying helpless. Every word he said felt heavy, but also full of sincere affection. He remembered all the beautiful moments they had gone through together, and the pain of that loss made him even more depressed. As his hand stroked Dinda's hair, he hoped that his affection could flow and give strength to his best friend. The tears that fell were an expression of all the guilt and helplessness he felt. He missed Dinda's smile, her cheerful laughter, and all the memories that now felt so far away. "Daddy will fight for you," Sebastian continued, his voice trembling. "I will find out who is responsible for all of this. I will not let what happened to you pass me b

    Sebastian looked at Rendy with hatred. "I know my position here, Rendy, and I don't need you to tell me what to do." Rendy took a deep breath, holding himself back from getting provoked. "Sebastian, I only think this is for Dinda's own good. Don't let this conflict burden Dinda's situation." They were both trapped in their own feelings: Sebastian with his pride and Rendy with his desire to do good. Silently, both felt that they had to find a way to work together for Dinda's sake, even though their egos and emotions were at odds. Sara looked at Sebastian with a cold, firm gaze. She was frustrated with all the trouble Sebastian had caused. In her view, Sebastian was not only ruining the atmosphere, but he was also threatening Dinda's stability. "You've caused enough trouble," she said, her voice firm and uncompromising. "If you still consider yourself Dinda's father, then respect my request. Leave now!" Sebastian was stunned for a mome

"I didn't mean... to hide anything. That was indeed my mistake.""Mistake?" Sara emphasized the word with a sarcastic tone.

    Suddenly, Rendy's phone rang. As he answered, his expression changed instantly. From a warm face while with Dinda, now it showed a striking tension. He listened intently to the voice on the other end, occasionally nodding even though those around him couldn't hear the conversation.A moment later, he hung up and hurriedly put his phone in his pocket.

    "Are you sure this is just a coincidence?" Sara asked again, this time her voice softer.Rendy nodded firmly. "Of course. There's nothing for you to worry about. They’re just clients, nothing more."Seeing Rendy's calm demeanor, Sara began to second-guess her suspicions. A part of her wanted to believe Rendy’s words, even though the shadow of Sebastian and his earlier words still lingered in her mind.The anxiety that had once consumed her thoughts began to subside, but an underlying sense of unease remained. She tried to convince herself that maybe this was indeed just a coincidence. However, doubt still loomed in her heart, leaving her feeling trapped between the desire to believe and the fear of a greater possibility.Rendy stepped closer, gently touching Sara's shoulder. "You look tired. Let’s go back to Dinda's room. I'm sure she wants to see both of us," he said softly. Sara gazed deeply at Rendy, trying to read

Her anxiety grew, and she began to feel something was off. Yet, on the other hand, she didn’t want to think too far without proof."Be patient, Sara," she told herself.
