The Love of Butterflies Night
Chapter 26

Reynold slept while holding Elle's arm. he slept still sitting on the chair next to the bed Elle. his head was leaning on the side of the bed. Zielle slept at home. Reynold told Zielle to go home because Zielle's school tomorrow.

When Reynold fell asleep, a miracle happened. Elle began to move her fingers. Then followed by opening both of his eyelids. Elle is awake now.

When Elle woke up, she could see Reynold who was beside her. Elle tried to wipe Reynold's hair very slowly. Elle then shed tears.

“Rey, what's the tetep here? why are you still holding me back? Do you marry me and leave your family? Why Rey?” Elle in her heart.

Reynold seemed to feel something moving in his head. He also woke up from his sleep.

“Elle.” Reynold immediately realized that Elle was conscious.

“You've realized Elle?” Reynold asked with teary eyes.

“...”Elle did not answer.

“Elle, did you just cry?” Reynold then wiped the tears that fell on Elle's cheek.

“Listen Elle, you don't have to worry about anything anymore. Even though I can't marry you for now but I promise you I will always be there for you. I will work and support you. And if the child.I mean the baby already I will love the baby like my own son Elle.” Reynolds was clearly full of courage.

Upon hearing Reynold Elle's words, she realized that the baby was in her stomach. He began to be haunted by that fear again. Elle is reminded of her trauma. Deep wounds, and his greatest fear.

Does that baby have to be kept Elle? Does that baby have to be born? But how? Elle herself does not want to continue living with her current condition. Elle did not blame the baby, but there was a lot of fear that she felt along with the baby.

Deep down inside Elle, Elle knew that she had committed the sin of adultery. The baby's DNA, will bear the karma of the sins that have been made by him. The baby was not the son of any father, the baby had no line of inheritance. The baby also has no real father figure. And she will be born from the womb of a sinner and a woman of the night like herself. Elle started crying.

“Arrrrgggghhh!” Elle hit her stomach again.

“Elle! stop doing that again!” Reynold immediately held onto Elle's arms and stopped his actions.

“The baby was Elle's innocence, and you can't eliminate him now. You and the baby are in critical condition Elle. If one of you can't survive then it will also affect the other. If the baby dies it will harm you as well as Elle, and if you get sick it will harm the baby too.”

“The only way is to give birth to that baby Elle. You have to survive until the baby is born. It's up to you to throw it in an orphanage or hand it over to someone else if it's born. But for now, do not try to eliminate it even.” Reynold.

Elle was stunned to hear that reality. He didn't know if he had to keep the baby until birth. Elle was really confused, she couldn't imagine it for now.

“No! He cannot be born! No!” Elle is hysterical. Reynold stopped him by holding his body. Reynold then pressed a button to call the doctor.

Seeing the hysterical Elle the doctor immediately injected Elle with sleeping pills. Because if it continues to be left like that it will even be dangerous. Elle calmed down and fell unconscious.

“I think for these few days we need to keep an eye on Miss Elle.” Doctor Say.

One day Reynolds father came to the hospital and hit Reynold directly in Elle's room. Reynold, who was feeding Elle, suddenly went to his father and was dragged out. They then had a big fight. Security officers secured both of them. Reynolds father gave up, he was fed up. He then chose to hands off and no longer want to consider Reynold as his son. Reynolds has not been financed by him since. Reynold was forced to work harder to support himself and fund the hospital.

Then this morning, there was no wind or rain before. Suddenly, Reynolds came to the hospital. That morning, Reynolds happened to be having a morning shift, so early in the morning Reynolds had already left for work. And Zielle also goes to school, be Elle herself in the hospital.

Mmmah Reynold entered Elle's room by knocking on the door.

“Who?” Ask Elle.

“...” Mama Reynold did not answer. He went straight into Elle's room.

“Tante?” Elle was completely shocked by the appearance of her Mamah Reynold before her eyes. Elle's feelings were really mixed.

“Can Mamih talk to you for a minute?” Mamah Reynold asked hesitantly.

“...”Elle nodded her head.

“Thank you.” Mamah Reynold then sat down on a chair near Elle's bed.

“how are you doing now?” Mamah Reynolds asked, starting the conversation.

“I..”Elle had not had time to answer Mamah Reynold directly throw him with another question.

“Reynold paid for all this?” Mama Reynolds asked.

Elle was stunned to hear the question. He was confused as to what to answer. He can only nod his head.

“Yes, it's okay. I expected it. Unexpectedly, Rey had already grown into a grown man. Now he can make his own money and help you. Mamih feels proud of her, on her independence.” Mamah Reynolds eyes back in tears.

“Tante..”.Elle wanted to say something but was cut off by Mamah Reynold's words.

“The boy..., long ago, twenty years ago.., Mamih took him from the hospital in a frail state. When he was a baby, he was often sick. But now, Mamih did not expect him to grow into an independent and responsible man like this.

“Taken from hospital? Mean Aunt?” Elle was stunned by the words of Mamah Reynold.

“Yes, as you might expect. Reynold is not really Aunt.”'s son Mama Reynold said with a deep look at Elle.

“What?” Elle. He really did not believe the facts he just received. Reynold, his best friend since he was in high school, was not the biological child of this wealthy couple.then who are the real parents of Reynolds? Apparently, Elle really does not recognize her own best friend.
