Love needs sacrifice, if there is no sacrifice there will be no such thing as love.
Four months later...
With full attention, Sara who despite being pregnant, painstakingly helped walk the husband who now could not see anymore.
Sara takes Ryuzen to the back garden of the hospital, she is seen taking care of her husband who she now has to accept the fact that Ryu is not able to see as he used to.
"Honey, we're already in the park. Here the weather is very bright and cool, I'm sure you'll like it" Sara explained the weather conditions around her to Ryuzen.
But Ryuzen did not respond too much, he just smiled bitterly lamenting his current state.
"Sara's..."
"Yes baby?"
Ryuzen raised his hand looking for Sara's hand, then fumbled and clasped her fingers. He also invited Sara to sit because she could not bear the condition of Sara who is now pregnant must stand too long. They finally sat in a chair not far from where they were standing.
"Be careful... "Sara's teaching helped her husband sit properly.
Ryuzen again smelled a bitter smile at the treatment of his wife. How not, he who used to be able to do anything, is now like a helpless man in front of his wife.People feel angry at themselves as if making his mind like being gnawed by feelings of guilt.
Sara sighed, she confirmed her sitting position so that she could sit as relaxed as possible, understand that Sara's gestational age had indeed entered the third trimester. Even to walk alone Sara is getting harder, but she still insists on caring for her husband who now can not see.
"Sorry..."
Sara, who had just been relaxed in her sitting position, spontaneously replied, "Sorry for what?"
"I'm sorry that I've put you in another difficult situation while you're pregnant." The tone of regret was so pronounced in every word Ryuzen spoke. "I should take good care of you at a time like this, but again I make you tormented, even more tormented. My situation like this seems to show how useless I am." Ryu's sobs could no longer be contained, holding Sara's hand and kissing her he cried. "I've failed, I'm useless, I've always hurt you and made you miserable..."
Not having the heart to see the husband like that, Sara also unconsciously shed tears. She wiped Ryuzen's tears. "You don't have to be guilty, because I never mind what's going on right now. Because for me, just as long as you're always by my side that's enough. So I beg you never to feel guilty. In fact you're the one who's always protecting me, looking after me, and helping me even when I don't know you're always secretly helping me when I'm tough, so this time let me take care of you."
"Now I'm more convinced, how lucky I am to be able to love and be loved by you Sara."
Because that perfect happiness cannot be sought, but is shaped along with time.

Ryuzen's P.o.v
And today I had a corneal transplant. Honestly, I felt so scared for the first time in my life, I felt an overwhelming fear. All sorts of bad things raged inside my head before entering the operating room. What if this operation fails? What if I'm blind forever? But all my fear diminished, when I realized that Sara, who continued patiently and strongly, was holding my hand before and as far as I was heading to the operating room.
"You can definitely see again" my wife said with optimism and enthusiasm.
I hope so too. But of all I'm afraid of is, what if I can't see my second child. No, I can't be like this I have to be sure I can get back to seeing. Sara was so sure of me that I could be as sure as she was.
And finally, I arrived in front of the operating room. I'm ready for everything that's going to happen, I can't make Sara worry about me. Before I entered the room Sara clasped my wrists tightly, she took my hand and put on her big belly. "You should be able to see again, because this person in my womb is eager to be seen by his father." Saying that I knew Sara was trying to encourage me, but behind that I could feel a sense of worry that she was trying to hide from me. Not to mention, Sara's delivery date is only a matter of days. I smiled, I assured my wife that I would be fine and would be able to see again. I kissed Sara's back before I actually entered the operating room. Sara I can definitely look back, be patient and pray for my operation to go well.
I was in a very cold operating room. I really can't think of anything anymore, all I know is, from the moment I was drugged I gave it all up to the doctors who were working on my corneal transplant surgery. And the anesthesia was done on me so I didn't know what happened after.

Sara's P.o.v
I waited for Ryuzen outside the room with my son and Kenzo and other close relatives. I can't say I'm calm because I'm not too calm right now. Arvin who was next to me immediately called me as if he knew how I felt right now. "Mommy, papi will definitely be fine trust me." Funny, I should have said that to my son, but what a power I can't be as calm as my son, I'm too skeptical about the things that are happening right now.
Second by second, minute by minute, hour by hour round of time passed. I kept waiting for my husband who was in the operating room. When I was tired of sitting, I tried to stand up, but somehow when I stood up I felt something strange. Suddenly, as I stood, a wet liquid flowed down my leg. And who would have thought that I, who should have been due to give birth for two more days, had to have a rupture of the membranes on the same day as Ryuzen's scheduled surgery. I didn't know what to do at the time, luckily Jason was waiting for Ryu, helping me and taking me to the delivery room. And again I had to give birth without Ryuzen's company. But it doesn't matter because I know Ryuzen is struggling right now, so I have to fight to bear the fruits of our love even without him by my side.
Because indeed *b**that's life, there is always a beginning and an end. It all begins with birth and is then separated by death. No one can predict let alone choose the destiny of human life, but every human being has the right to make his life choices. Sometimes you have to give up something you have to let go of sometimes you have to be sad first to be able to find happiness. But rest assured one thing if, what is destined for you then he will always come back to you*.
