Aaric looked down at Thomas full of anger, his clenched hands getting stronger.
Thomas was getting scared, he knew Aaric was so mad at him. She shot Naina right in front of her husband.
Thomas closed his eyes, preparing for any retribution Aaric would give him.
Suddenly Ryan and Dani come, both of them immediately approached Aaric.
"Aarics. Don't dirty your own hands by touching them." Dani holds the shoulder of her best friend.
Ryan stood next to Aaric, looking closely at Thomas in front of him.
"It's a good thing that Naina's condition is fine, because otherwise, this person would have already died in my hands." Ryan looks very angry.
Nisa steps forward towards her daughter-in-law, Dani shifts her body so that Nisa can stand next to Aaric while looking at Thomas.
"Friends're right. Leave him to them. Let them take care of it." Nisa pointed at her people.
Aaric immediately looked at his in-laws.
"Think of Naina being pregnant," Nisa said as she looked at Aaric.
Aaric looked back at Thomas then let out a long sigh to quell his anger, his two severed but clenched palms slowly opening.
"If I hadn't thought about my pregnant wife, I would have beaten you up."
Thomas raised his head slowly.
"I'm sorry." Thomas looked at Aaric.
"I'm khilaf. My anger at Nisa makes me dark-eyed. I thought if hurting her daughter was the only way to avenge me on Nisa. But I was wrong, I almost killed an innocent man. Again forgive me." Thomas looks very sorry.
Aaric again clenched his hands, but Dani again held the shoulder of his friend to dampen the emotions of Aaric who again lured to hear the words of Thomas.
"Please get him out of here as soon as possible, before our patience runs out." Ryan saw Nisa's men.
Nisa nodded her head approving of Ryan's words.
Quickly some people pulled Thomas and put him in the car and took him away from there.
After Thomas leaves, Leo and Sam approach Nisa and Aaric.
"Those who have captured Thomas" Nisa told Aaric, pointing to her stepchildren.
"Thank you." Aaric took the two in turn.
"It is precisely we who want to apologize to you, because of our family problems, your wife so carried away," said Leo.
"That's because we're one family now" Aaric replied.
"It's true." Sam smiled as he embraced Aaric.
"We are a big family now" said Leo, embracing Aaric.
Nisa smiled happily to see him.
***
Sam and Leo had just left after seeing Naina's state, the goodwill of the two who seemed to be eager to establish a good relationship with the daughter of their stepmother was of course welcomed by Nisa as well as Naina and Aaric.
As the night progressed, Nisa, who had been staying at the hospital to accompany her daughter, finally returned home because Naina told her to. Naina knows very well that her mother is very tired, therefore after convincing her that she is in a much better condition now Naina told her to go home so that she can sleep at home comfortably.
Aaric accompanies Naina in the room.
Aaric faithfully sat down beside his wife while holding her hand tightly.
"Sleep, baby, it's night."
"How's my dad doing?"
"I haven't seen him yet, but Dani said his condition has stabilized and tomorrow he could be transferred to the treatment room."
"Thank God. I want to see her tomorrow" said Naina.
Aaric nodded his head with a smile.
"Yes dear. Tomorrow we'll meet him. Now go to sleep."
Naina holds her husband's face.
"You should sleep too. Your face looks very tired."
"Yes. I'll sleep after you sleep too."
Naina shifted her body.
"Relse. I want to sleep with you."
"But baby.."
"I won't sleep if you don't hug me."
Aaric smiled. He stood up and slowly climbed into the bed and laid his body.
Aaric tilted his body towards Naina, his hands curled over her belly.
"Now go to sleep, baby, I've hugged you." Aaric's whisper is soft in Naina's ear.
Naina smiled, she was about to tilt her body as well but then she screamed in pain.
"Darling why?" Aaric who was shocked raised his head.
"You shouldn't move first." Aaric will get out of bed.
"Don't come down, sleep here again."
"But you will be in pain."
"No. My luk is here, you won't hit it."
Aaric gave up, he went back to sleep next to his wife.
"Hurry to heal baby, I can't stand to see you in pain." Aaric smelled at his wife's cheek.

Next day.
Dance was pushed out of the isolation room by two nurses, arriving outside she was greeted by Dahlia and Axel.
Dahlia hugged her daughter.
"Finally, you're finally healthy, son." Dahlia cried sobbing in the princess' arms.
Dance shed her tears.
Dahlia lets go of his embrace, letting Axel greet his daughter.
Axel looked at Tari with a smile, the two looked at each other then blushed shyly.
"Thank you" said Tari.
Axel nodded his head.
"Where's papa?" tanya Dance suddenly.
Dahlia and Axel looked at each other.
"We'd better go to your room first." Dahlia asks the nurse to push her daughter into the room.
Arriving at the room, several Doctors came and immediately checked the state of Dance.
"We must be grateful because the process of donating spinal cord can be said to be successful." The doctor saw Dahlia.
Dahlia looks very happy, and so does Axel.
"Thank you so much doctor. This is all thanks to the hard work of the doctors who have without giving up caring for and treating my daughter all this time" said Dahlia.
The doctors nodded their heads.
After explaining the health condition of Dance, the doctors then left the room followed by the nurses.
"Mama. Where's papa?" tanya Dance again who instantly dimmed the smile on Dahlia's lips.
Dahlia thinks maybe it's time she told Tari the truth about her father's situation.
"Honey. Mama can't hide this from you. You should know your father's circumstances."
"Hide what Ma? Papa why?"
"Your father is being cared for in the ICU room, son" Dahlia said carefully as she sat next to her daughter.
"What?" tanya Dari was shocked.
Dahlia nodded her head.
"Why?"
"Your father was shot."
Dance jerked in surprise.

Afternoon.
Aaric gasped at the news that Dani had just delivered by phone, he immediately saw the wife who was chatting with mother and grandmother who came to visit him.
"What's wrong?" naina asked in surprise because Aaric looked confused.
Winda and Grandma were astonished.
Aaric approached his wife.
"Honey. Actually I don't want you to know, but it's not true that I'm hiding this from you."
"What's wrong?" Naina was getting curious.
"Your father. Suddenly critical."
Naina was stunned, as were Vinda and Grandma.
Aaric pushed the wheelchair on which Naina was sitting, accompanied by a nurse and Winda who followed behind her, all walking towards the ICU room.
But suddenly Aaric stopped his steps, because unexpectedly they cross paths with Tari who also uses a wheelchair driven by Axel behind him.
Dari and Naina looked at each other, with both of their eyes already wet from crying, both of them staring closely at each other.
