Heart Fraudsters
Chapter 25 Just Pretending

Not long to see the lies before his eyes, papa Rudi went down another ladder, and unbeknownst to Farlan and mama Erica he went out of the house.

" It's better that I visit Erin than to see the acting of her son and biological mother." muttered papa Rudi.

Papa Rudi went to the hospital where his first wife was taken care of.

Upon arrival there he went straight into his wife's nursery, but he did not find his wife there.

" Good afternoon sir, how can I help you?"

" At the afternoon, where is my wife?"

" O mother is in the rehab room sir, filling rehabilitation activities for patients, want me to call you sir?"

" Oh over there? Don't let me go there, thank you."

" Good sir please."

Papa Rudi walked towards the rehab room not far from his wife's nursery.

When he arrived, he saw his wife talking to a woman.

" Dear Assalamualaikum." papa Rudi's greeting.

" Wa alaikumsalam mas, just arrived?"

" Yes." Yeah."

" Dad." said the woman who was with Ms. Erin who was none other than Mba Aisyah while greeting her father.

" You're here? Where are Hanif and his father?." asked Papa Rudi.

" Hanif was invited by his father to the park earlier, there are those who sell their favorite snacks there" replied Mba Aisyah.

" When did you get out of here, Rin?" ask Papa Rudi to his wife.

" Well, I like it here, it takes away my longing for my mother, because Erica's doing my mother has to spend her old age here" Erin said with a sigh.

" What do you think if I divorce Erica? I'm tired of pretending to be Rin, I want us to be together again and spend old age with you."

" We are still with you, why do you doubt that" Erin said, holding her husband's hand.

" How's the Fardhan case going?" ask Aisyah.

" Papa's real pity with Fardhan."

" What about?"

" You know what? This is all Farlan, Farlan is the real villain, it's been, I want to have fun with my beloved family, without any stories about your mama and her children.

Mba Aisyah just shook her head, she was happy her father loved her family very much, she used to hate her father but after knowing that all was not her father's fault she was finally able to accept everything.

Every visit to the mental hospital where Erin's twin sister mama Erica in their care did not discuss the second family of papa Rudi.

Mama Erica almost never visited Erin at all, when her parents were in care even Erica did not want to visit her, as if the relationship she decided deliberately.

The request from Erin was that Papa Rudi would marry Erica's mother, all because Erin did not want the disgrace that caused her parents to experience mental disorders was widespread.

But unfortunately his parents did not heal and Erica's mother became more so, he mastered his own papa Rudi, until Erin chose to pretend mental illness.

" When did you guys not notice where my husband went?" erica asked the housekeeper.

" I'm sorry ma'am, no, I was praying ashar."

" Yes already." said Erica's mother as she walked into her house, took her cell phone to contact her husband.

Several times she called her husband but his contact number was not active.

" Farlan do you know where your papa is about?"

" I don't know ma.."

" Ck, why isn't your father worried about Fardhan at all." Erica said with a sigh.

" Don't force papa ma, ma Farlan can ask?"

" Why didn't you ever see your mom?"

" You don't think you've got any shame about visiting a mentally ill person??"

" Ma..isn't mom sick from mommy?"

Mama Erica was surprised to hear that.

" What? Da.. Where do you know?"

" When did you hide this to Farlan? Is there nothing in my mom's life?"

Mama Erica sat down to hear the words of her son, indeed to Fardhan she had opened her secret but not to Farlan.

" Ma if I or Fardhan were mentally ill, wouldn't you care about us?"

" What??"

" Yes I think Fardhan and I are sick.We can't take Lea off."

" Farlan!!! What are you talking about!!" sentak mama Erica's.

" Hahaha...mama...mama....mama is so naive, you think who pushed Farhan?? Who's after Lea??"

" What do you mean Farlan?? Mama doesn't understand!!"

" Yes, you'll know for yourself!" farlan said as she went out of the house leaving her confused mother.

Not how long papa Rudi came home, he immediately walked into his room without caring about mama Erica who was sitting on the living room sofa.

" Pah...pah.." call Erica's mom while following her husband's steps.

Papa Rudi did not answer Erica's mother's call, he immediately fell down and closed his eyes with his arms.

" Where are you from?"

" Silence you Erica I'm tired you understand no, throughout the marriage you just make me dizzy usually" said papa Rudi while sliding his body against Erica's mother.

Mama Erica gasped at her husband's words, during the marriage indeed their relationship was not harmonious, if it looks okay it was just in front of the children, but after the adult children papa Rudi began to show his cold attitude to mama Erica.

Especially after their twins started throwing tantrums, Papa Rudi blamed Erica's mom for everything that happened.

" Please, I've been fighting for our household, please respect me." said Erica's mother began to cry.

" Did your rotten tears, I'm not the old Rudi anymore, I'm sick of Erica...muak!!" jolt papa Rudi while getting up about to leave.

" Where are you going? you can't go anywhere." hold down Erica's mama while holding Papa Rudi's hand.

" I'm going to hell.follow you hah!!"

Suddenly Erica's mom let go of her hand.

Papa Rudi picked up the suitcase that had filled his clothes.

" Daddy!!"

" It takes me, look to hell!!" sahut papa Rudi again while stepping away from home.

" Aaaaaargh why should this be..I do not want to be like this, Rudi you are only mine..miku.hahaha...no one can take Rudi from me..hahaha..." mama Erica shouted as she rampaged, all the items in the room were thrown in all directions.

Their housekeeper ran to their master's room and found his employer on the rampage, the housekeeper ran into the house.

Soon Farlan came after being contacted by their housekeeper, while Rudi's father could not be contacted because his contact number was not active.

Farlan immediately took her unconscious mother to the hospital, along the way her mother went berserk not wanting to be persuaded.

Arriving at the hospital after the doctor did an examination, the doctor suggested that Erica's mother be taken to a mental hospital.

Farlan was shocked to hear the advice of the doctor but could do nothing but follow the advice.

With an ambulance delivered Erica's mother in a referral to a mental hospital where Erin's twin brother pretended to be treated.

When the mental hospital nurses accept the arrival of Erica's mother, Erin had seen Farlan who was walking following the gurney carrying Erica's mother.

" Farlan? who he was carrying, I had to get in my room immediately" Erin said back in and pretending again in his room.

" Mrs Erin.." call one of the nurses to Erin.

" Yes?"

" There's a new patient coming in, very similar to my mother."

" What's Erica called?"

" Yes, ma'am."

" He's my twin brother, if he's looking for me, just tell me I'm in this room, I'm not going anywhere."

" Yes, ma'am."

" Remember the deal!"

" Yes ma'am, siip, the doctor told me to tell my mother to go back to the room, because there are patients who are similar to my mother."

Then the nurse left Erin in her room.

After the nurse's departure Erin contacted Rudi's father and Aisyah informed him of the incident just now.

Papa Rudi actually did not want to come but Mba Aisyah asked him to see Aunt and her stepmother finally papa Rudi with Mba Aisyah went to the hospital.

Upon arrival at the mental hospital papa Rudi and mba Aisyah looking for where mama Erica placed.

The nurse said that Erica's mother was brought in an isolation room but should not be in the peek because her mental condition is still very vulnerable, papa Rudi and Mba Aisyah walked to the isolation room and found Farlan sitting outside the room.

" Pa...why did you leave your mother in this condition, is there not the slightest pity?" farlan asked as soon as she saw the arrival of her father.

" Pity?? Do you understand the word pity? You can feel pity but have you ever felt sorry for your brother? Your family?" show papa Rudi.

" She...."

" Silence!!"

Farlan swallowed his own saliva hearing the firmness of his papa.

" If you understand the pity or pity you saw in the VIP room block 2, the years he was there, look, his face is similar to your mama, just imagine if it's your mama!" sahut mba Aisyah.

Farlan's getting down.

" If it wasn't for your mama I wouldn't be like this Farlan, plus the behavior of you and Fardhan that adds to the burden of your mama's mind" said Rudi again.

" I'm tired of you demanding to be perfect.I can't bear it if you make sacrifices again, now you, Fardhan and your mama I let go, whatever you want, whatever you want, after all, my marriage to your mother is only a series, so you take care of your mother, according to my agreement with your mother, I am only with her until you grow up and can determine your own way of life, it should have been me and your mama who separated a few years ago, but since you and your twin brother are sick and your sister Aisyah's request is why I postponed it."

" Where is papa going? Papa's leaving mom?"

" It is up to you to assume, as I was forced by your mother to abandon my legal wife who is also her twin sister, that I now have to atone for my guilt for my legal wife, I'll go take my legal wife, and take care of her myself, you're an adult, now it's your turn to take care of a sick mother."

" She..."

" Not adding to the situation, my decision is complete, remember don't destroy your life like Farhan or Fardhan, you can still save your life, make everything that happens as a lesson, so that you do not regret later, and one more, do not force people to live with you if he does not want, for example your father and mother, for example, what happiness does one get from a relationship that pretends to be happy in the eyes of others??"

Papa Rudi stood up and left.

" We get your mother out now Aisyah, let me take care of your mother, she'll want to go back with me, who knows with my own caring father your mother will be healthy again." papa Rudi said as he walked towards his first wife's ward.

Farlan could not prevent his father's departure, he simply looked at his father and looked at the door of the isolation room where his mother was placed.

Farlan's mind was divided, if he forced Lea to live with him, surely his mother would not be happy this would make even bigger problems, no one supported him now.

' Just free..free.... I have to how!!' bathe her while pulling her own hair.

At that moment a nurse saw Farlan's attitude.

" Sir.. May I give you some advice?"

" Hmm.." said Farlan, closing his eyes.

" Call to consult the father's problem with the psychiatrist."

" You mean I'm crazy?" farlan said while leaning his head.

" The person who consults is not only a sick person sir, normal people can also, will consult sir" the nurse replied with a smile.

" Do you have any advice on which doctor should I go to?"

" The doctor who took care of his mother father, Dr. Ryan, if his room is at the end of the hall, if you want the consul here, but if the clinic becomes one of his homes, if you want the consul, I also help in the clinic if there is no official schedule, if you are willing later I will help make a consul schedule, how about sir?"

" May, but first please don't call me father, I'm young and unmarried."

" Okay, sorry, oh yeah with who?"

" Farlan."

" Oh yes, I told the doctor first" said the nurse as she left.

" Wait...."

" Yes.what's up?"

" What's your name?"

The nurse simply smiled as she pointed at the name pin that was on her chest.

" Lena?"

The nurse smiled and bowed respectfully and turned away from Farhan.

The gentle and polite attitude that the nurse showed was almost similar to Lea, making Farlan forget for a moment her obsession with Lea.

Yaaa.....
