Anna and John rush to the IGD hospital where Jhon works. Jhon took over the boy and brought him inside. While Anna, she held Brie and followed behind Jhon.

At the time of entering the IGD room, Jhon was amazed by the change in the wound in the child's body in his arms. All of his wounds are regenerated moving close the gaping wound so that the bleeding stops.

The boy's face was pale and looked very limp but his temperature slowly warmed up and it could be felt clearly by Jhon and soon a nurse came to greet them in the room those.

"Doctor Jhon, who's this kid?" Ask.

"Bring him into the treatment room first. I'll check on her condition" said Jhon, handing the child over to the nurse, and then he turned his head to Anna as a code if she should wait outside the treatment room.

"Make sure the boy is safe." That's what Jhon read from Anna's lips.

Jhon nodded his head steadily then he passed away leaving Anna and Brielle.

After a few moments that felt like hours to Anna, John, the doctor, finally came out of the treatment room.

"How's the kid?" Anna asked with a worried face.

"disgrace. The child was a wonder Anna," said Jhon, making Anna's forehead shrivel. He really did not want to hear that answer from the mouth of John.

"What do you mean, Jhon? I really don't understand. How's the kid doing?" Ask Anna again.

John who saw Anna's face as soon as he hugged his wife, whose little girl had fallen asleep in Anna's arms.

"He's okay, Anna. You can calm down now. That boy is a prodigy. All the wounds on his body healed on their own even though there were some wounds that were not tightly closed and I still took action to sew them up, but at least the bleeding in the boy's body stopped completely and he did not have any serious injuries. It's so magical"

Anna was relieved to hear the explanation from Jhon. But he was still curious about the identity of the child and it was not only Anna who was curious, Jhon was so.

John as a pediatrician was amazed at the regeneration of the wound in the child. He thought that the child was some kind of mutant human.

"We must delay our departure, Anna." He said, "I want to see the boy get well and want to ask him who he really is." Reciprocity.

Anna saw her husband's face full of curiosity. Anna just nodded in agreement on that. You are not the only one who is curious, so am I. I wonder where the boy came from and why he was on that path. Anna said in her heart.

Three days have passed since the boy was hospitalized, but his condition still makes Anna and John more anxious. Although there were no serious injuries on his body, the little boy's eyes still did not open. They feel trapped in a deep sense of worry and uncertainty.

Her doctor has done various tests and examinations, but none can explain why the child has not yet opened his eyes.

All medical tests showed that the child's body had no serious injuries and some had recovered, but the child's eyes remained closed, like a very deep sleep.

Anna and John were sitting around the child's bed feeling a heavy burden every day. They clasped hands with each other and hoped that their young child would soon wake up and recover because John could not delay any longer his move to the California capital.

"Hi handsome boy, is the dream world so beautiful that you refuse to open your eyes." Said Anna.

During the last three days Anna went back and forth to the hospital just to make sure the child's condition, she even read a book and invited him to chat to stimulate the child to quickly open his eyes.

Anna realized that the boy in front of her was very handsome with a brown mane and a nose that was so sharp added with his cute lips.

"We want to meet you handsome boy. Even Brie was eager to meet you. We can't stay here forever because Brie's dad has to move to another country. Come open your eyes and we'll talk." Anna continued.

"Sad you better come back. Brie will soon be home from school" said Jhon reminded.

"Let me know if this child is awake" Anna said, nodding her head. But when he was about to stand up suddenly a hoarse voice sounded and there was even a small finger that had grasped Anna's hand.

That sentence made Anna and Jhon's eyes look perfect.

"You're awake. Thank goodness," he said in relief and he sat back down. Anna's hand tightly grasped the child's hand even her eyes glazed over with glass.

"Mom, I'm thirsty." Said the boy without letting go of his grip on Anna's fingers.

John who heard the boy's request, swiftly gave him water. Change the position of the bed so that the child is comfortable when he wants to drink.

Glucose, glue, gluk! The water in the glass filled by Jhon is drunk to the toilet.

"Where am I now, ma'am?" Asked the boy with his manic had circled the room.

"You're in the hospital. Do you remember what happened before?" Jhon asked nervously, but the nervousness was gone when Jhon saw the boy shaking his head.

"What's your name?" Anna asked with a full glance. He felt something off from the boy.

"Name—"

The boys are pensive. He repeated the name but never mentioned his name.

"Jhon—" Anna stared at Jhon's bead and without the man answering she knew the meaning of the call.

John swiftly called the nurses and they took the child for further examination and arrived at the conclusion if the child has Amnestic syndrome or often known as Amnesia (forgetting memory).

Anna was not so surprised about it because the boys must have experienced a trauma and very severe injury because of the time the collision occurred.

Jhon and Anna discussed the child and what steps they took then came to a decision in which they would adopt the child and name him Ethan Goldaff and bring him to the city San Diego, California.

Flashback Off

Ethan confirmed his seat beside Anna with worried eyes. Her heart thumped as her eyes fell on Anna's display of health information systems revealing that Anna's illness had reached a stage where her life was only 60% left%.

"Mom—"

"Don't worry, mom's condition is fine." Anna said as she gently pulled her hand so as not to be held again by Ethan.

"Dad, Mom needs surgery right away. I don't want to know you have to be operated on" Ethan said impatiently and excitedly with his father Jhon. But the father just kept quiet and even put on his flat face. "Dad—" Call Ethan in a slightly elevated tone.

"You know how stubborn your mom is, dad can't do much." Pungkas Jhon while standing and passing away from the dining room and choose to sit at the edge of the pool.

"Ethan, mom's fine. Mom's fine - fine. You don't have to worry too much like that" Anna said in a soft voice.

"Mom! don't lie to me. I'm a doctor who knows all about Mom's current condition. Mom's life rate is already 60%, it's very drastically down from the results I checked three months ago. Mom, please. This time listen to me. Mom has to have surgery." Ethan chuckles at his opinion, he doesn't even heed Anna's rejection.

"Darling, mom is fine." Anna's timpal is no less stubborn than Ethan.

"Mom, where anyone gets cancer is fine. Although stomach cancer is slow, but cancer is still cancer. It was a deadly disease mom. Please mom, don't be stubborn."

Anna just shook her head in rejection of Ethan's decision. He remained clamorous with his stance. But the brown-shelled man is not out of his mind, he knows the key to his mother's weakness and it becomes the key to Ethan so that the mother can melt.
