Bram ran along the corridor to look for the room Valen was in. He panics when he gets a second call from Esther saying Valen is not okay. Bram was able to find the room quickly as the sound of Esther's cries rang out.
Inside, Esther appeared to be crying out howling. Jason was standing not far from Esther, staring blankly at Valen. Valen himself was also crying without a sound.
"Valen, what's wrong with you?" Bram approached Valen and immediately sat down beside him. After a long time without meeting Valen, Bram finally could look at his beloved daughter.
Valen does not answer and instead looks at Bram with a view that is difficult to explain.Bram helps Valen wake up, then hug his daughter.
"Dad's here, Val."
As soon as she heard Bram's voice in her ear, Valen's cries broke. She was crying in Bram's arms. Bram's heart was deeply sliced at the cries of Valen and Esther. He was more confused by this situation.
"Valen's condition isn't good, Om." Jason took the initiative to explain. Valen and Esther are still in shock. So, for sure they can't tell you what happened with Valen.
"Valen has HELLP syndrome." Jason then explained about a rare syndrome suffered by pregnant women. "The syndrome is dangerous for Valen and the baby. The doctor had already done an examination on the fetus. It should be the best move to remove the fetus immediately. But, doctors can not do that because the fetal lung function is not yet mature. So, they'll wait until all the fetal organs are functioning properly, and then a C-section will be performed."
Bram was struck by lightning. He could say nothing but hold back his tears. Now he knows why Esther-Valen was so sad that she cried like that.
"Dad.." call Valen weak.
"Yes, baby."
"I agreed to divorce Alden" said Valen.
Bram let go of his embrace. He looked at Valen who looked already helpless. His view is empty.
"Valen, I'm sorry about Dad" said Bram, full of regret. He didn't want Valen to be with Alden, but Valen's words just sounded so hurtful. "Don't think about it, Val." "We focus on your health and that of your baby."
"Jas, is there another solution?" bram asked without looking at Jason.
Jason was silent for a moment. "none. If Valen wants to keep the baby, that's the only way. But, Valen has to take good care of his body."
"Val, why is your fate like this? What do we do now?" erang Bram's.
Valen swallowed his saliva with great difficulty. His brain was already unable to think after being hit by a storm like this. She also listened to the doctor's explanation saying if she kept the baby, her life could be threatened. Or even worse, both could not survive.
"Dad, the important thing is not to tell Alden this." said Valen who had been thinking about Alden's situation.
"Yes, Val. Whatever you want, we'll do." said Bram in a choked voice.
Jason waited a while for the family to calm down. They're setting how and what they should do for Valen's treatment.
Esther and Bram finally agree to continue Valen's treatment at home with one nurse who will take care of Valen 24 hours.
"We'll take care and talk to the doctor again. You accompanied Valen here" Bram told Jason, who had been with them for hours.
Jason approached Valen. There were usually a lot of things he wanted to say to Valen, but now Jason speaks a thousand languages. His mind was empty just like Valen.
"Jas, you heard that, right? So why are you still here?" Valen started the conversation.
"Val, sorry. I'm really sorry to have thought of such a cruel plan to separate you from Alden." Jason realizes the mistake he made with Esther and Bram.
"It's okay, Jas. Now that I realize, it looks like we've got to split up."
"Val, don't be like that. It's precisely this kind of time that you need your husband's support." Jason slightly raised his voice so that Valen was aware and did not speak carelessly. "It's all out of our control, Val." "I won't bother you with Alden anymore, I promise you. But, hold on for the sake of your son and husband."
"I can't, Jas. I don't know what's going to happen in a month or 2 months."
"Val, you're fucked. You won't be able to make good decisions." "Now, you need to take care of your health condition and also you must remain enthusiastic. If you are sad, it will affect your health" Jason said.
Valen chuckled, listening to Jason give him advice. All of Jason's words are correct. Everything is out of Valen's control. He just has to endure all this.
"Jas, but I don't want Alden to know this." "Please don't tell him about my situation."
"Okay Val."
"You also don't have to look after me and spend time chasing me anymore." "Find the woman who likes you." "Don't waste it if you get it." "And, remember. Don't make the mistake that Alden and I did." "**** out of wedlock it's not true and the consequences will be complicated like this." Valen's turn to lecture Jason.
"Yes, Valencia. If anyone likes me, I'll marry her soon." Jason promised.
Valen tried to smile. The story with Jason is well done. Valen's story with Alden. Even though Valen really wants Alden here now, Valen will keep this a secret from Alden. Valen was afraid if the baby died, or even himself who died.
