Anna, Hug Me
33

🌷🌷🌷

Thomas sits side by side with Chaty in the hospital garden. He owes a lot of explanation to his brother. Although Ana wants to keep this a secret from Chaty but if they've been caught red-handed like this, it's a responsibility to hide it from Chaty.

“Tell me, exactly what did you do to my Ana?” ask Chaty to his sister. He tried to be calm and not blind as before.

“This is all my fault. I ate my own emotions when you said Ana was engaged. I felt angry, instead of letting it go, I was trying to have Ana, I forced her to be mine that night. The night that turned out to be his first. Theo rejects Ana's explanation and assumes the girl has cheated on me. Since you are his best friend as well as my Brother, he could not tell this matter with you and chose to return to his hometown.”

“I can't believe you did it, Thomas," said Chaty angrily. "I told you clearly don't go near Ana. He's different. But you don't want to know. Now you see for yourself the consequences you caused. He's in the hospital because of you. Please just leave her life. Don't bother him anymore.”

Thomas didn't care about his brother's nagging and just kept going on with the story. “I accidentally found Ana again after Theo insisted on me working on this project. He must have known where Ana was before.”

“Of course he knows, however also Theo was Ana's former fiancee,” sergeant Chaty. He does not like the attitude of his brother who is convoluted. After all that happened, shouldn't her sister let Ana live her life. “Now, mumpung all can still be saved, you better stay away as far as possible from Ana and let the girl live happily.”

“Then, I might have been able to do it, but right now I can't let Ana go anymore" replied Thomas.

“You don't be stubborn,” said Chaty angrily.

“No, after I found out Ana was pregnant My son.”

“What...! did I hear wrong? Try saying it again? Say!” Chaty couldn't help but be angry at what her brother just said.

“Yes, Ana is currently pregnant My son, your niece.”

“Gosh...!” Chaty was stunned in his chair. Body's limp. Thomas has impregnated Ana. This fact hurt him so much. How unfortunate the fate of Ana, has been treated arbitrarily from Thomas, plus can not tell Thomas's depraved behavior just because Thomas brother of his friend. Complete is Ana's suffering.

“I really love Ana as sincere as my heart, I also want to raise my son with her. So please support me as a brother.”

“I am also a friend of Ana, how can I support you,” Chaty said. “Have Mama and Papa figured it out?” ask Chaty.

Thomas shook his head, “I just met and learned of Ana's pregnancy not long ago. I haven't been able to get Ana's heart either. I can't tell Mama.”

“But sorry," said Chaty. "I have to tell them this even though you prevented it. They are grown up and have a good perspective on this, at least they can advise you not to make the same mistake a second time. First you have abandoned the mother of your child so you can also abandon your child later,” Chaty said at length.

“Alright, I hope it's the best,” said Thomas resigned to his brother's decision. “Come, go back inside. I want to know the latest news about Ana.”

“What happened to Ana until she got into the hospital?” chaty asked as he walked back to where Ana was being treated.

“I found him passed out inside the house and he was bleeding too,” Thomas explained.

“What! How is he currently doing?”

“Doctor gave him a blood transfusion to restore his condition.”

“As long as Ana is still strong, the baby will be maintained as long as possible in the womb because indeed the gestational age is still not enough.”

“Hopefully no unwanted things happen,” Chaty prayer.

But it seems that Chaty's prayer has not been granted by God. As they enter the lobby, Soni is seen running towards them. His face looks panicked. Thomas suspects that something bad has happened to Ana.

“Soni, what's up?” ask Thomas in fear. “What happened to Ana?”

“Yes, something has happened to him. The doctor said she had to have surgery to save her baby or there were no survivors between the two" Soni said with her breath cringing.

“How can his condition deteriorate quickly?” ask Thomas. They immediately rushed to Ana's place in the operation.

“What happened?” chaty asked as he ran to keep up with his brother who walked very fast, as if impatient to arrive soon.

“Nurses wrongly replace the blood bag that is actually not for Ana, Ana allegedly can kidney failure. More or less like that, we have to move Ana to a bigger hospital and since this is on the island so..” Soni did not continue because Thomas immediately shouted at his sister.

“Papa's phone, order him to send a medical helicopter as soon as possible here. Two! For Ana and Her Baby.”

“Good,” replied Chaty, he slowed his run to make a phone call. While Thomas and Soni had already walked quickly and disappeared from view.

“You are not waiting for coordination with the hospital?” ask Soni.

“He will both be threatened if I let the negligence of the hospital repeat itself. I have the right to move both of them without permission because their carelessness has put the lives of both at risk.”

They finally arrived in front of the operating room. “How is it?” ask Thomas as soon as they arrive.

Edward and Lily waited anxiously in front of the operating room. “They're doing an operation," replied Edward. From a distance he sees Chaty has arrived following to their place.

“Helicopter is already on its way,” Chaty said as soon as it got to where they were waiting for Ana.

“You,” Thomas said as he pointed at Edward, “tell the hospital that a medical helicopter is on its way. I'm going to move both of them to a bigger hospital. If I said it myself, I'm not sure I can hold back my emotions. I was so angry with their negligence, I wanted to beat up everyone,” Thomas said. His breath was stinging withholding emotions.

Chaty immediately embraced his Brother's shoulder and asked his Brother to sit down and calm down. There was nothing they could do but pray, even though his own prayer had just not been fulfilled. But there can be miracles if God wills.

Edward walked away without answering. He could feel what if he were in Thomas' position. He will definitely hit everyone because the negligence could have taken the life of Ana and her baby. May the best for Ana in the future, her prayers inwardly.
