The day that began with a happy pinch, is now ended by the sorrow. The cheerful laughter that was originally blaring, replaced with heart-wrenching sobs. The white rose petals that were scattered on the floor, turned blood red. Silence in crying, tightness in the chest.
A woman who clutched her son tightly, did not stop divorcing tears. He's so scared. Black shadows of death, flashed in the mind. Although the thread of prayer cannot be separated from his lips and heart. Flowing for the beloved child.
"Edward a little faster!" lirih Rona was anxious because Ezio's body was getting pale. Edward increased the speed of his vehicle. Until the car floated on the asphalt.
The man who was focusing himself on the road that passed, held his heart out from within the iris of the eye. Because at this time, in his mind only the salvation of the soul of the beloved baby.
Ten minutes passed. However, it feels like hours. The couple now arrived in front of the hospital. Edward came out of the car. Shouting off at anyone who could be asked for help.
A security man confronted and asked what the problem was until the man in front of him was rummaging to disturb the comfort of others. Edward, who was on the black, screeched loudly while pulling the collar of the security suit violently. "Call the medics right now, fool! My son is dying...!!!"
The security guard nodded his head then ran as fast as possible into the Hospital. Not waiting for long, two media personnel brought a patient gurney while running around. Edward, who followed because he could not wait, passed the medics. He laid his son's body on the gurney.
Edward and Rona follow the two officers who take Ezio to the operating room. Tears that had been held back, just broke out soaking in the face of his pajas. This was the second time he felt a great fear. Fear of losing someone dear to him.
They arrived in front of the operating room. The vault was pushed quickly into it. Edward walked over and went into the room. However, a person wearing medical clothes held back his steps.
"Please wait outside, sir," said a nurse. "Let us carry out our duties calmly, for the sake of the patient's health" he said again. Edward took a step back. Both hands pulled her hair in frustration. He groaned, giving off a feeling that seemed to press down strongly on his chest.
"Prophey dear." isak Rona cradled her husband who sat curled up on the floor. His feeling was very hurt to see the condition of Edward who was used to being strong now looks so weak and also slumped.
Rona also sat on the floor with her legs crossed. He pulled Edward's head and put it on his shoulders. Calm the middle heart, with a soft touch of his finger.
They wait and keep waiting. Begging for a miracle comes for their son, who is struggling between life and death. The tired face of lethargy refracts the submission to God's destiny.
Thirty minutes into the wait, the door of the operating room was finally opened. A nurse came out and removed the mask on her face. Edward got up from the floor to approach the nurse.
"W-how is my son? My son survived, right? ask Edward.
"The bullet from the patient's body has been successfully removed. However, the patient draws a lot of blood. We need a transfusion as soon as possible" the nurse told Edward.
"My Daddy, my blood type is the same as my son. Take as much blood as you need!" edward said he was offering himself.
"Good, Sir. Please come with me to the blood transfusion room." The nurse walked ahead, Edward followed her from behind.
Edward is now lying on the patient's bed with a transfusion hose embedded on the back of his left hand. He stared blankly at the ceiling of the room. His mind was open, his heart offered prayers for the heart that was stiffened.
Ten minutes later
The fragile soul that had originally given up, was now giving up. He scratched both his legs with a shabby face. Approaching the wife who awaits her with hope and anxiety.
The nurse who had brought Edward to the transfusion room, approached Rona with a look no less agitated. "Sorry Lady, Mr. Edward's blood doesn't match because his blood type is different from the patient's blood type."
"But how can it?" rona did not believe. "My husband's father, there's no way they're different blood types!" rona was confused.
"I'm sorry, but that's the truth, ma'am.your husband's blood type is different from your child's, '" the nurse said.
"But how can it?" rework Rona in a soft voice. His body trembled with eyeballs staring towards the room whose door was tightly shut. He leaned his body against the wall. The fate of God is not in favor of their happiness.
The atmosphere of silence, no more voices of rebuttal or hope. All drowned with their own thoughts. Fear, worry, worry, unite and struggle in the mind.
"Take my blood. My blood type must be the same as the little boy in the room!" point to someone who suddenly comes along and surprises everyone.
Rona was so angry with Edward too. The eyes of both of them blocked towards the man who pushed himself to save Ezio's life who was already on the edge of the horn.
"What do you mean, asshole?" Edward who had been standing instantly swung a punch at the man. The man staggered. However, he managed to hold his body by holding onto a pole.
"Because I'm the father!!!" the man who was none other than Roy. As if struck by lightning, Edward shook his head not wanting to believe Roy's words. He beat up the young man repeatedly releasing the anger that was whipping in the heartstrings.
Conditions in front of the operating room getting out of control, Rona pulled Edward's arm to stop his action from hurting the man who had stopped in his life.
"Stop Edward! Ezio needs blood immediately. He needs our support!" rona's snapping pushes Edward's body away from Roy.
Roy quickly breaks away from Edward's tantrums by following a nurse to do a blood donation.
Edward clustered as he grabbed his hair digesting everything that happened. Her eyes turned red again, her tears breaking as she understood the secret riddle God had given her.
"Ezio is not my son, Rona... Ezio's son is the result of an affair between Marissa and Roy. I-that means Marissa has betrayed me. He brought a big secret into the burrow."
"No Edward... Ezio our son. He will always be our son. Nothing can change that!" isak Rona is heartbreaking.
Edward grabbed the wife's body and immersed her in his warm body. "Quiet darling... Ezio's ours. No one can take it. Even if it's God...."
