Look at me, my man!
The Heart That Stops Pitting

"Here you are, what do I care?" asked Darren again who had realized why he also had to be curious about the departure of Shelby who carried Theresia in the middle of the night. The man immediately took the remote and then played the channel, but a few minutes passed, inexplicably Darren suddenly did not calm down.

***

Shelby was running his car at full speed, not caring about the extremely heavy rain. Shelby's body was shaking. Honestly, he panicked because in the back seat Theresia was seen continuing to spasm, while outside was also very heavy rain. Shelby fears there is a road closure due to the flooding.

The streets were so quiet, there was hardly even a single vehicle. Of course because it was raining, especially it was already midnight but Shelby had to really strengthen herself in order to get to the hospital.

His car stopped because in front of him was a puddle of water, and what Shelby feared happened. The entire road was surrounded by rainwater, so Shelby could not move his car. “Aaaaa!” Shelby yelled again when there was water coming from the side, and a second later Shelby's car was carried away by the water and quickly, Shelby immediately activated the automatic brake until the car was not carried away by the current.

As fast as lightning, Shelby immediately released the seat belt, then the beautiful woman immediately got up from her seat then she jumped towards the back. Then after that, he immediately carried the body of Theresia and hugged Theresia so tightly.

Shelby cried loudly, roaring to call the name Theresia for Theresia to come to her senses. Don't ask how panicked and sick Shelby is right now, which must be all raging in the chest. There was nothing he could ask for help, and suddenly he thought of something. He immediately stored Shelby's body back in the chair, then he went back to the front and opened the dashboard.

After that, she took the medicine and was lucky the medicine was still there and quickly, Theresa immediately opened the lid of the medicine bottle and after that she gave a forced drink to Theresia who was having a seizure. Then after that, she clenched her daughter's body again, trying to stop Theresa from convulsing again.

Ten minutes later.

The drug is starting to react. Slowly, Theresia's stiffened body again loosened. Shelby immediately let go of her embrace and then saw Theresia's face.

"Thank you, God," said Shelby.

Theresia had already stopped the seizures, but Theresia was still unconscious. Shelby looked around. The rain was still very heavy and just now Shelby's fear of Theresia was reduced, now she was struck with fear again. What if the car gets washed away? Because the water is so big.

There was no one around to make the fear even more so, but he could not do anything until in the end he re-embraced Theresia while offering prayers for God to help her.

Two hours passed.

The rain had already subsided an hour ago, and for an hour, the puddles began to drain making Shelby sigh. He immediately released his embrace from Theresia, then he laid back Theresia's body again.

Shelby moved to the front and started running his car again to go to the hospital. After arriving at the hospital, he rushed down and then headed to the emergency department.

Shelby walked to and fro. It seemed, he could not wait for the doctor to come out of his daughter's nursery, because now Theresia had been examined by a doctor.

Ten minutes later.

The doctor came out of Theresia's ward, so Shelby went straight to the doctor.

"How's my daughter doing, Doc?" ask Shelby.

"We'll check the lab first" the doctor said. "Do you give your medication regularly?" ask the doctor until Shelby nods..

"If that's the case, it looks like psychic Theresia is being distracted. But we'll do a follow-up check" the doctor said.

Shelby held onto the wall because she couldn't hear what the doctor said, and in the end after the doctor left, Shelby went into her daughter's ward.

Shelby pulled the chair and the beautiful woman sat herself next to the gurney and then she clasped Theresa's hand. It's been a long time that Theresia hasn't dropped like this. It seemed, Theresia's mentality was completely shaken due to yesterday's birthday, where Tristan did not come home.

The previous year even though their birthday was held in a different place, but the next day Tristan always went straight home and brought gifts. But yesterday, Tristan returned home after two days had passed.

Maybe Theresa thought about what her brother and father were doing, plus this morning when her mother went into the water, Theresa opened Shelby's phone and then she saw her father's social media account. He saw the photos of Tristan and his father on vacation, and it added to the drop condition of Theresia until now Theresia like this. It felt like he was so envious of the kaka who had always been close to his father.

***

The night changed in the morning.

Darren woke up from his sleep. There was no Tristan beside him until Darren went down.

"Tristan," call Darren when he comes out of the room. There was no confirmation, but Theresia and Shelby's room was open until Darren walked straight into the room. As he was about to enter, Darren stopped his steps. During his seven years moving into the apartment, he never went into the room of his wife and daughter. Now when it came in, of course Darren felt strange.

"Tristan," call Darren.

Tristan who was summoned instantly turned around then he directly walked out of the room of his mother and sister.

"Daddy, where's mommy?" ask Tristan. When he woke up, he immediately remembered Theresa until he immediately got out of bed and into his sister's room, but it turned out that when he arrived at his sister's room there was nothing.

Darren scratched the nape that was not itchy. "Daddy doesn't know, maybe Mommy and your sister are already going to school" Darren said.

Tristan frowned. He saw the clock. "It's still six and a half, and Mommy's going to school at ten. How could Theresia and Mommy have gone?" ask Tristan.

"Just try to call Mommy" said Darren again until Tristan nodded. He went back to the room to pick up his phone, and then called Shelby. But before long, Tristan dropped his cell phone when he heard the sound of a cell phone ringing from his mother's room, and it turns out that Shelby did not bring his phone makes Tristan so confused.

He then returned to the father who was collecting his life on the sofa. "Mommy's phone could not be reached. The phone is here" Tristan said again, leaving Darren even more confused. He doesn't know either.

"Yes, you take a shower first. Daddy will prepare breakfast," said Darren because it's breakfast, they always make it each. Darren will only make breakfast for him and also for Tristan.

***

Shelby got out of the car. The beautiful woman had just arrived at the basement of the apartment. He returns home to talk to Tristan and to keep Tristan from looking for him and also to find Theresia. She also went home to pick up her clothes and also Theresia's clothes.

Just before she came home, Theresa had already opened her eyes. However, Theresia's condition was completely weak, even Theresia was suddenly unable to move. And because there were sisters accompanying Theresa, Shelby chose to take their clothes and supplies in the hospital. He also had to talk to Tristan.

Shelby came into the apartment, a boisterous sound came from the dining table. Darren and Tristan are having breakfast.

"Tristan," called Shelby until Tristan who was chatting with Darren turned his head immediately.

"Mommy!" Tristan was suffocated when she heard Shelby's voice. The man got off the chair and approached the mother .

"Mommy from where?" tristan asked, while Darren instantly changed his expression to cold as if unnecessary with Shelby's presence.

"Theresa had a fever, she was hospitalized" he said.

"What's? Theresia fever? Is the fever that bad?" ask Tristan.

"Theresia fever, Theresia will be treated for several days. You stay here with Daddy, okay?" ask Shelby.

"I want to see Theresia. I wanted to accompany Theresia," said Tristan, his countenance looking very worried.

However, Shelby shook her head. "You'll catch it later, so it's still here Theresia won't be long" Shelby said.

As usual, Tristan was so obedient.

"Is it true that Theresia will come home soon and heal?" ask Tristan again.

Shelby nodded. "Yes, you continue your breakfast. Mommy's going to get Theresia dressed" Shelby said again until Tristan nodded.

Tristan turned around and sat back in the chair, while Shelby walked straight to the room.

"Tristan," call Darren when Tristan daydreams. Even Tristan no longer wants to continue his breakfast.

"I'm full" replied Tristan.

"Take your breakfast" Darren said.

"Dad, Theresia has a fever. You don't want to see Theresia?" ask Tristan again. Actually he already knew what answer his father was going to say, but he just wanted to hear again his father's answer.

"Daddy is busy, later," Darren replied until Tristan let out a sigh.

***

Shelby went into the room. The woman immediately took the suitcase and then cleaned up all her clothes and also Theresia clothes, because either time Theresia could get out of the hospital, because if the drop like this, because if it drops like this, Theresia always stays long in the hospital for the healing process. He is forced to lie to Tristan because he does not want Tristan to see Theresia's condition.

After finishing the suitcase, Shelby immediately walked towards the bathroom to refresh himself. Twenty minutes later, Shelby was ready to put on her clothes. He plans to return to the hospital, and when he gets out of the room, he accidentally crosses paths with Darren. It seemed, Darren was just about to return to his room.

Darren and Shelby both stopped their steps, but before long Shelby immediately continued his steps, as well as Darren.

'If I could ask you to come to the hospital for Theresa's condition to improve, I would definitely do that. But unfortunately I can't.' Shelby sat down as she continued her steps.

***

Darren got out of the car, the handsome guy just got to his office. Of course after he drove Tristan.

"Mia," called Darren as he passed through Mia's room, until Mia turned her head. He smiled when he saw Darren. The woman got up from her seat, then walked straight to her lover.

However, Mia had not been able to approach Darren, there was a sound of footsteps until Darren turned his head. It turns out that the one who came was her brother, until Mia immediately turned around and then sat back in her chair, as well as Darren who continued his steps.

"Go, it's still morning. Don't make my mood bad" Darren said as Salsa followed him into the room. He sits on the couch and fiddles with his phone, ignoring Darren's babbling, while Darren chooses to sit in his chair and open his laptop.

"Is it true Theresia is being treated?" salsa asked, saying that she saw Shelby in the hospital, and Salsa told her friend to follow Shelby.

When entering the ward, Salsa's friend who is also a doctor also knows that Theresia is being treated until she immediately tells Salsa.

"It has nothing to do with me either" Darren said.

Salsa looked at Darren. "Are you sure you won't regret it later if something happens to your daughter?" ask Salsa.

Darren stopped his movement who was fiddling with his laptop. "Salsa, I told you not to make my mood bad. Whatever happened to her is none of my business" Darren said again, making Salsa stroke her chest.

"Do you know whose first love I was?" ask Salsa.

"Where I know. That's, right, your business. What, what do I care about?" ask Darren.

"My first love was daddy, and I'm sure Theresa's first love was you, too" Salsa said.

"Salsa go. I don't want to hear anything. I don't care what happens to that kid" Darren said.

Salsa got up from her seat. He was here to see Keenan, who was in charge of overseeing here.

"I suggest stare at Theresia in a way, imagine if Theresia is gone forever." After saying that, Salsa turned around and then came out of the room of the sister, while Darren directly leaned his body back. The man shook his head then rubbed his rough face.

"For what? I don't care either." Darren straightened his body.

***

A few days later.

The atmosphere in Theresia's ward was filled with panic. Shelby unceasingly shouted calling out the name Theresia. Several doctors were trying to restore the little girl's heartbeat. Yes, a few minutes ago Theresia's heart weakened, and doctors are now working to restore the little girl's heartbeat.

During these few days, the condition of Theresia has not changed. The little girl remained in her original condition, weakly helpless and could only open her eyes without speaking.

Darren walked down the hospital corridor. The man had just come out of Mia's ward, because she was being treated for an allergy.

While in front of the outpatient room close to the corridor, Darren stopped his steps when he heard Shelby's voice calling out to Theresia.

"Theresia, please wake up. Open your eyes and don't leave Mommy. Please wake up!" shouts Shelby.

Suddenly, Darren's heart beat twice as fast when he heard Shelby's scream saying such a thing. And unconsciously moved his legs and he went into the room of Theresia's ward, and it was true that the one inside was his wife.

Darren's brain feels empty. The look in her eyes was staring at the gurney, where the doctor was attaching a heart-racing device to her daughter's body, even clearly she could see the extremely thin body of Theresia.

When Darren came in, Shelby looked at the door and when she saw Darren, a panicked Shelby ran over to her husband. He immediately pulled Darren's arm.

"Dareen, please help me once. Please talk to Theresa once. He'll listen to you. Please, Daren.!" shelby cried with tears. He looked at Daren with a pleading gaze. Although Dareen ...
