The Love Flakes of Nauvara
Draining the pain

Arriving at the hospital. Fero ran straight to the elevator. He did not think of the sight of those who stared in wonder at him. Entering the elevators of the hospital leadership who will take him to Zia's delivery room.

His hand stretched out quickly opened the door of the birthing room. The first thing Fero saw was Zia who was grimacing in pain with tears streaming down her cheeks. His footsteps widened towards Zia's gurney. Zia who noticed Fero's arrival instantly opened her two eyelids.

"Fe-fero. Are you here?" zia's tears were breaking as her bad thoughts were buried with Fero's presence.

Mama Hera who saw Fero's arrival immediately moved from her seat. "Sit here, Fer. Zia needs you. Mama can't bear to see it like this." the cry that Mama Hera held back from earlier finally broke as well. It was so unbearable to see the princess just in pain. From childhood Zia was like a jewel that he always guarded. Even a slight wound on Zia's body had made Mama Hera so worried. Especially now that she witnessed firsthand how Zia endured her pain to give birth to her first grandchild.

Fero nodded. Her body was resting on the seat that Mama Hera had originally sat on. Fero grasped Zia's hand gently. His free hand he used to stroke Zia's head. "Use my body to drain your pain, Zia" said Fero so softly. It was so unbearable to see Zia in pain.

"I don't think I can, Fero. It hurt so much." Zia's nail clutches on Fero's wrist deepened as she felt her son so impatiently searching for the birth canal.

"Please hold on to me and our son. We'll raise her together." Fero tried his hardest to get the words out to encourage Zia. He tried to calm himself with a great roaring chest.

"If anything happens to me after this. Please take care of him for me, Fero. I may never have your heart. But I beg you. Put him in first place in your heart. At least that way, I can still feel the love from you with our child's intermediary" Zia said so softly. His hand clasped tightly onto Fero's wrist.

The pain grew more intense in Zia's body. It feels like Zia is no longer able to withstand the pain to get her child out. Slowly his hand that gripped tightly Fero's wrist weakened followed by my eyes that slowly closed. Fero seemed so panicked to see the state of his wife. Soon he came out of the delivery room to find a doctor who would handle Zia. Simultaneously the doctor who will help deliver Zia was in front of him about to enter the maternity room.

"Doctor!! Please wife!! In-he fainted!! Please wake my wife!!" Fero screamed so scared that Mama Hera was getting so panicked by Zia's state.

The doctor immediately entered the maternity room to check on Zia. "The opening is perfect. The baby is ready to be born. But—"

"But what?! How can my wife give birth if she is unconscious like this!!" snapped Fero so hard. Seeing Zia's paled face made Fero so panicked. "Do something for my wife and children!! If you guys misbehave just a little, I won't hesitate to fire all of you!!"
