Brakkkk
"Say! Who told you to!" Lyan kicked hard at the table. Right in front of him, there was a woman who had her hands tied and her feet on a wooden bench.
The woman was none other than Leslie, her condition was really very messy at the moment, the shabby clothes of a face that was pale with fear plus her messy hair was not formed anymore.
"B-not me T-uan. I'm just helping him out." With quivering lips, Leslie told the truth.
Brakkk
"One more time you lie, I'll make sure this base ball stick hits your head!" Gertak Lyan was full of emphasis. The man had held back his anger, revealing the veins of his arms.
"For whatever reason, I don't do it." Deny Leslie again.
"Then you know who the real culprit is! Tell me, and you'll get your reward." Lyan lured the woman to tell the truth.
"Ss-aya tiddak tau Tu-an. Fervently." It seemed that the woman's tears had run out to cry. Only the stuffing was left on the sidelines of the sentence he said.
"Lied!! You're the culprit!" Lyan had run out of patience, wanting to feel like he hit the woman with a punch, but he held it because Leslie was a woman.
"Hik.hikk.."
Lyan, increasingly furious, approached Leslie. Clutched rough on both sides of the woman's face, her inertness provoked the other side in Lyan.
"You know this thing?" Lyan took off his grip, the man brandished a small folding knife with a sharp and shiny blade.
Seeing that, Leslie trembled more and more in fear plus Lyan played the sharp object on her pale face.
"You don't want to talk. All right, I'm gonna make you not talk forever." Lyan grinned sinisterly. His face today was more appropriate if it was called a life-extracting angel.
"Don't. Forgive me, sir." Leslie begged for the umpteenth time.
"God!" Lyan clutched her face tightly again, she really did not play around with his words.
"Mmmm…."
"Let's open your mouth, what good is a tongue if you don't use it! Better cut it." For Lyan to tease her prey like this, it was an entertainment unto herself.
"G-grace.." cried Leslie, inevitably she had to say it. Who wants to die is ridiculous because it is not his fault.
"What?"
"Grace. Grace's hurting Auryn."
"Swise choice Miss." Lyan showed her slanted smile.

"How's this Dadd? Auryn and our grandchildren will be fine, won't they?" As soon as word got out, Zach and Celo rushed after his son-in-law to the hospital. Right now, the woman just kept pacing back and grumbling to blame herself.
"It's Mommy's fault, if only we didn't let her go then Auryn would be fine right now." The saying continued to mutter in Celo's lips.
"Momm, stop. Daddy's sure Auryn is also our granddaughter will definitely be fine. She's a strong woman, just like Mommy." Zach hugged his wife, calming her now frightened woman.
"But Dadd, Auryn, he must have been so scared earlier, how it felt to be on the verge of death was so scary." Clearly Celo, imagined himself in the past.
"So calm mommy, our daughter-in-law will definitely be fine." Zach pecked his wife's head repeatedly. Although after their marriage has been almost a quarter of a century, but their affection is never timeless.
Nearly three hours after Auryn was treated by doctors, the woman has now been transferred to the treatment room. Celo has always been loyal to be at the side of the daughter-in-law who has been considered her own daughter by her.
"How's my daughter Doctor doing?" Nessi who happened to come to monitor the state of Auryn immediately questioned Celo.
"The patient had lost a lot of blood due to bleeding in his temple. Lucky, now that it's okay, we just have to wait for the patient to wake up." Obviously Doctor Nessi.
"He's strong, like his mother." From the look on his face, clearly Doctor Nessi was amazed at the strength of the mother and child in the womb.
"Ah.good." Celo breathed a sigh of relief. The anxiety that had surrounded his mind, now went out somewhere.

"Hows it? Has he confessed all this?" Archie, back in contact with Lyan, must know who bravely harmed his wife and child.
"It's not him."
"What do you mean?"
"It wasn't him who did it Ar, it was he who helped Auryn." Obviously Lyan after interrogating Leslie.
"Then who did it? Don't tell me you haven't gotten the culprit." Archie's question was full of emphasis in each of his words.
"It has. She's Grace."
"Grace? Who her? How strong is the reason, to harm them? Take care of him immediately, I don't want to know that."
"Then you're alone? Are you going to act like a coward when your wife is about to die?" Lyan's words, provoked Archie's distant emotions.
"Do your duty. Don't take care of my problems."
"You're selfish!"
At the end of their call. They are both hard, but Lyan is better able to think clearly than Archie who put his emotions first.

The next day, Auryn just woke up at midnight, long enough the woman was confined in her subconscious. Slowly the round eyes were open, slowly adjusting to the lighting in the room.
Auryn felt someone clutching tightly to his hand that was not attached to the infusion hose. From his silhouette, Auryn could guess who it was, even though his head was sinking between his arms.
"Hiks.." still faithful to her tears, one hand of Auryn rubbed the man's brownish mane gently.
Disturbed by Auryn's hand, the man raised his head. Instantly, they were staring at each other, clearly visible tears streaming down the pale face of the pregnant woman.
"Why crying? You don't want my presence? Then I can leave now, I'll have Mommy accompany you."
"….." Auryn shook his head slowly, still with tears falling down.
"Why? Is anyone sick?" The same voice, and the same worries. Auryn misses everything, everything in this person.
"….."
"Then why are you crying?"
"Hug Me Ar." For the first time, Auryn was acting spoiled like this.
Yeah, that guy Archie. After going through the upheaval with his heart, he decided to go back and accompany his wife. For now let him be selfish, his main priority at this time is only his wife and child in the womb of his wife.
"Of course it's dear." The word that Auryn has not heard lately. A word that always makes her cheeks blush from embarrassment.
"I miss you Ar. Very." Very." Auryn rubbed her face in her husband's field. In his breath the scent that he had always longed for. Archie's body aroma is more effective in calming his mood than Peppermint tea given by Aiden.
"Now I'm here and I love you." The man slowly.
"I know that. Thank you." Thank you." Archie could feel, his wife smiling in his arms.
"…." - ".Not knowing the words of his wife, Archie repeatedly kissed the head of his woman. The woman he misses every night, the woman who will be the mother of his children.
