The Seed of the Cassanova
BSC 143 (S2 Part 12)

Tap tap tap

There were rushing footsteps along the hospital corridor. They are Theo and Rhea.

Because it was too rushed, Rhea almost fell because she tripped on her own feet. But swiftly, Theo held his body so as not to fall.

"Be careful!" theo's perspiration was only embraced by Rhea. Rhea's breath seemed to hunt, because he was impatient to see the condition of the mother who according to the doctor who had contacted him if his mother fainted. It seemed that he had not been able to accept reality and was too shocked that he had lost consciousness.

Theo helps Rhea to get back on her feet. Then they walked back. But while on the way, Theo suddenly fixated. Her iris eyes caught the existence of the male figure who had snatched the lover from her side. Looks like he's walking maybe to the ex-lover's nursery. Theo's feet suddenly moved wanting to follow the man's footsteps. Who knew he could find out Shenina's inpatient room. He was eager to meet her, but someone's call paused his steps.

"Theo," called Rhea when she realized Theo wasn't by her side.

Theo also abandoned his intentions. Something more important now. Someone needs it more now. At least, that was what he had instilled in his mind at this moment.

Theo even gasped his footsteps. They continued on their way to the room where Rhea's mother was.

"Mommy," called Rhea softly when he saw the infusion hose stuck on the back of his hand. Eyes closed. Her face was deathly pale making Rhea's heart sliced.

"What happened to my mommy, Sus?" rhea asked a nun who had just entered the room.

"Your mommy blood pressure is very low. Too much shock and lack of rest seems to be the trigger for her stings mommy, miss."

"But mommy's gonna be okay, right?" Rhea was worried, her mother was too shocked to leave her. Theo, who had always been there, rubbed Rhea's back to calm her down.

The nurse nodded, "mommy Miss just needs some rest and a quiet atmosphere. For other problems, nothing. Please take care of your mommy's mind so she can calm her mind more."

After saying that, the nurse immediately said goodbye to come out.

"You stay here, accompany mommy. Let Daddy do it, I'll finish it" Theo said gently as he rubbed Rhea's back.

"Theo," call Rhea shriek.

"Hmmm ... "

"Thank you for coming with me. If there is no you, maybe I ... "

"Shh ... No need to thank. I am the daughter-in-law of this family. It's my duty to do it, "he said.

Hearing that answer, for some reason Rhea was a little disappointed. She hopes Theo says it's because she's her husband.

Ah, Rhea, don't expect too much. He has behaved better and wants to accompany you like this you should also thank him. He didn't leave you at your lowest point you should be grateful. At least you're not really alone right now.

Shortly thereafter, Theo took care of the cremation and repatriation of the body. Rhea's father's body will be brought home first before being buried.

After taking care of all the administrative processes, Theo immediately returned to the room of the mother-in-law. He opened the door slowly, worried about disturbing Rhea and her mother. Who knows, Rhea fell asleep there.

But it turns out the assumption was wrong. What appears inside is just the opposite. There was an unusual rumble in Theo's chest upon seeing him.

Yes, in there was Ael who was hugging Rhea while calming her down. Rhea's back was shaking which meant that Rhea was crying again at this time.

But what makes him upset is why Rhea had to hug other men. He also saw the man at the restaurant where Rhea worked. If he was a little late, surely Rhea would go home with the man.

Theo cleared his throat with his flat face. Rhea who recognized the voice also reflexively released Ael's embrace from her body.

"Theo."

Rhea immediately stood up to approach Theo. Rhea wiped her tears rough. Rhea's eyes looked very puffy, Theo could see it clearly. But he waited for Rhea's explanation.

"Emmm .. it .. she is Ael. He's my best friend and the owner of the restaurant I work at."

Feeling his name, Ael stood up and walked gallantly towards Theo. He stretched out his hand to shake his hand.

"Samuel. He is often called Ael. Ael is Rhea's special pet call for me," he said as if deliberately trying to provoke Theo.

Rhea's eyes suddenly rounded when she heard Ael's words that were too bold. Ael looked very relaxed. As if what he said didn't matter.

Theo welcomed the hand with his flat face. Rhea smiled wryly, she thought Theo would be jealous to see that there was another man who looked so close to her. But seeing the expression on Theo's face that seemed ordinary as if slapping him.

'Awake, Rhea. You're a nobody to him. Remember, your marriage is only temporary. Don't be too hopeful because her love isn't for you.'

...***...

The mood of the funeral home looks crowded. One by one the people who knew Rhea's father expressed their condolences. At the hospital, Rhea's mother went back into hysterics. But upon arrival at home, he was finally able to calm down. Though tears were unceasingly pouring from his eye peluk.

"Mom, Rhea please, strong. Follow, Daddy. Rhea ... "

Brukkka ...

"Rhea" cried Ael and Rhea's mother.

Hearing his name called, Theo who was welcoming the arrival of the mourners immediately ran. Seeing Rhea who fainted and was now in Ael's arms made Theo's chest rumble. He rushed over and took over Rhea and carried her.

"Exit!" he said it was cold to Ael. Ael snorted not liking to hear Theo's tone of voice.

"Let me take her to her room. I've been very familiar with the ins and outs of this house," he said. There's a satire in it. Theo realizes that he does not know where Rhea's room is because after they get married, Rhea immediately moves into her apartment.

"But Rhea is now my responsibility. I am her husband and I have more rights over her. So you better get out of the way. Don't embarrass yourself for still expecting someone else's wife" he said coldly.

Ael's eyes widened. Meanwhile, Theo grinned. In just one look, anyone could guess that Ael had an unusual feeling for Rhea.

Unwilling to make any further pleasantries, Theo immediately grabbed Rhea into his carrier. He walked up the stairs of the big and luxurious house. Theo does not know where Rhea's room is, but Theo is not stupid. He then asked one of the servants in the house to take him to Rhea's room.

Upon arrival in Rhea's room, Theo immediately laid Rhea on the bed. Rhea's face looked so pale. Theo knew, Rhea wasn't okay. But on the other hand, she has a mother who needs to be strengthened. He also tried to cover up his fragility by pretending to be tough. But it actually affects his psychic. Rhea finally fell.

Theo rubbed the top of Rhea's head gently. Then his palm turned to Rhea's stomach. His hand shook as he managed to touch it. There was an unusual feeling when her hand touched the bulge that Theo believed was the candidate for her baby.

"Baby, it's daddy. Look, be good in here huh! Daddy .. love you."
