For a moment, both of them forgot the sorrow that filled their hearts. Alex began to smile when he saw Nick woke up and wriggled because of the cold wind.
"Hallo, Hotspur. Waking up, want to meet little brother?" ask Alex to Nick.
Nick, who was not yet fully aware, rubbed his eyes while circulating his gaze around, the boy was of course looking for his mother.
"Mom, mama ...." Nick was crying hard.
"Quiet, Honey. Relax, mom is inside" said Aaron, helped by Alex who tried to comfort his niece.
"Mrs ... Mama ...." Nick kept crying.
But suddenly, an idea came to Aaron's mind.
"Ohimu ...." Aaron also whined and pretended to cry while holding his son.
"Hey, Aaron. Don't be crazy, yeah!" cetus Alex, some passers-by around them looked strangely at seeing Aaron crying with his son.
Only 15 seconds later, Nick immediately fell silent and laughed at the expression of his father who was crying like himself.
(Aaron Conan Drax's role in the novel is named after Nick Bateman)
"Sir .. papa ...." Nick babbling.
"Can we do it?" alex said in surprise, seeing Nick immediately laugh when Aaron pretended to cry.
"This is what Hayley used to do, I just imitate her," Aaron chanted with a laugh.
After the drama, they decided to take a walk around the hospital. This place is very large and large, including a famous hospital with great doctors who have gone worldwide.
"Please promise me, Alex. You will be stronger than this, no matter what happens, you must be strong" Aaron asked seriously. "You are not alone, many people love you. Now, there's a little baby who's gonna hang on to you his whole life, be stronger than ever, be the best papa he's ever had."
Alex just nodded, the words were indeed easy to say. But the heart never lies about pain and disappointment.
Not long after, Hayley ran from a distance calling out Alex's name. The two gasped in shock at Hayley's sweat and tears.
"Alex Alex's. Melanie," said Hayley stammering, not yet finished her sentence, Alex first ran to Melanie's nursery.
Aaron held Nick to run after Alex, while Hayley managed to breathe because his stomach was cramping.
Alex arrived at the room where Melanie was being treated, seeing so many doctors and nurses surrounding his wife, he immediately sat limp on the floor.
"Patience, Son. Be patient, be sincere," said Mrs Gio patting Alex on the shoulder.
It felt like the earth stopped spinning, Alex was like he was losing grip, he was crying hitting the floor, letting his pain evaporate along with the blows he was pounding on the innocent floor.
Aaron, holding Nick, embraces his cousin.
"We pray, Alex. Strong!" said Aaron.
Some doctors and nurses were busy preparing various medical equipment, they did some injections in parts of Melanie's body, then did a heart shock.
However, her heartbeat is no longer detected, Melanie's struggle is over. Doctors removed all hoses and breathing apparatus on Melanie's body, apologizing many times for failing to save the woman who had just become a mother within hours.
All the medics left the room, just Alex, Aaron, Nick and Mrs Gio. Hayley walked cautiously into Melanie's room, stunned when she saw all the doctors coming out of the room with a lethargic face.
"What's going on, Doc?" ask Hayley.
"Sorry, Miss. We couldn't save him" replied the doctor.
Hayley entered the room, watching the heart-wrenching sight of the plagues. Alex hugged his wife's increasingly pale body in a hysterical cry.
"Melanie, please, open your eyes, honey. Open it!" yell Alex.
"This is what you call love. How can you bring my love to the pit, I can't even make you happy. How can I live without, you've brought everything, Mel. Wake up!"
Seeing Alex's increasingly uncontrollable reaction, Hayley takes Nick from Aaron's sling and takes the boy out of the room, while Aaron, he continues to try to calm Alex down.
Madam Gio's reaction was not very noticeable, the middle-aged woman with almost entirely white hair seemed to cry in silence. His eyes were blankly staring at his only daughter lying lifelessly stiff.
She has been sincere since Melanie expressed her desire to get pregnant, because that means, her life will be increasingly threatened by the presence of the new life. Madam Gio did not refuse, nor did she agree, she just followed what her daughter wanted. What he now has, is only a small baby girl who becomes a grandchild as well as a substitute for his daughter, the baby is in a special room because of unstable breathing.
Seeing her daughter-in-law's increasingly hysterical reaction, Lady Gio approached, then hugged Alex.
"Already, enough. Don't cry him, let him go in peace. Hadn't it been years that she felt pain, it was enough today, she would no longer feel pain, she was healed," Gio said.
Alex kept thrashing, crying and hugging his wife's body.
For some time, Alex fell unconscious.
Aaron took his cousin lying on the couch, and asked the doctor to check. Because Alex's condition is very concerning, doctors choose to give a little injection of sedative.
"Please take care of everything, Doc. We'll bring the bodies home soon" Aaron asked.
On that very day, Melanie's stiff body was already wrapped pretty in a crate. All grieving, all families gathered. The woman was buried in a family cemetery not far from her home in the city.
Aaron and Alex and Gio go home to attend the funeral procession, while Hayley and Nick remain in the hospital waiting for the development of the baby girl Melanie gave birth to, there has to be someone who stays here, because that little baby also means a lot.
The funeral went very smoothly, Alex was calmer than before, he only cried occasionally wiping the tears that had fallen, the rest he tried to smile with all his might.
"Thank you for the chance to know you, it was one of the greatest gifts of my life. Love does not need to be found, love finds us. That old advice is absolutely right, honey. I will never cry again because something is over, I will smile because something happened. Thank you for your gift and struggle. I will take care of him with my life, as you brought him into this world with your life," Alex's last message on the grave where the soil is still soaked.
After the funeral, Alex and Aaron rush back to Singapore. Aaron wouldn't have the heart to let Hayley in the hospital with Nick, the boy must have been fussy for not being able to sleep well.
As for Alex, he was trying to strengthen his heart, recount what had gone away, and welcome what he had received.
Every love has its own test. There has never been a human being on this earth who escaped His trials, one by one they will be tested, how strong they are, how tough they are. That is what God does to measure the height of his people.
Hayley and Aaron, their love grows due to the presence of a baby who is accidentally. However, the two accepted and completed each other day after day, after full of trials and contradictions, until in the end, fate was on their side.
