In the midst of the cold silence of the night because at that ti the rain was pouring down on the earth, making the atmosphere of the hospital right on the top floor where Ethan was treated felt cold. It seed that Luna forgot to close the window, making her husband's body, who was only shirtless, cold. but it only made the man realize and slowly opened his eyes.
Ethan glanced around, then glanced at Luna who was sleeping using the back of his right hand as a headrest. He smiled and raised his left hand, gently caressing his wife's head.
"Finally, you sleep with ," he whispered with a grateful smile. How co? Because previously Luna had always avoided him when their dostic relationship was broken.
Luna realized soone had touched her head, then she got up and looked up and straightened herself back in the chair. She looked at Ethan who still had his eyes closed.
"I thought you touched my head. Maybe I was just dreaming because I was expecting you to wake up when I woke up." Luna took Ethan's hand again, using it to rest her cheek. Slowly she cried.
"Why are you taking so long like this? Is this what it feels like to wait for when I'm in a coma? I'm afraid you won't wake up again. I'm so scared..." Luna was still sobbing while hugging and kissing Ethan's hand, she looked down and closed her eyes.
"Honey... close the window, I'm cold," Ethan whispered.
Luna fell silent for a mont and straightened her seat again, looking at Ethan who was now smiling at her. however, he was still asleep. Ah, the man was just pretending to be asleep apparently.
"Are you aware?" Luna imdiately hugged Ethan impatiently.
"Uh... ouch." Ethan winced in pain because Luna hugged him too tightly while his back and shoulders still hurt, almost his whole body was still sluggish.
"Sorry, I was too excited." Luna imdiately let go of her arms with a shy smile, then rembered that Ethan asked her to close the window. "Ah, yes. Sorry for forgetting to close the window, you must be cold."
Ethan just nodded, then Luna imdiately got up from the chair and walked to the window. after closing the window, Luna returned to Ethan who didn't even look at her, making her blush.
"I miss you," Ethan whispered as he reached out his hand to touch Luna's smooth face.
" too." Luna held Ethan's hand that was on her cheek.
Ethan took a deep breath and then exhaled. He was silent for a mont rembering the events before he was completely unconscious.
"Honey, are you in pain? I'll call the doctor." Luna imdiately got up from her seat and walked out of the room to call the doctor. Ethan wanted to prevent it but couldn't because he was still very weak.
While waiting for Luna, Ethan thought about Edward. Ah yes, he didn't know that his stepbrother had died last night.
Check...!
Luna ca into Ethan's room with a male doctor who was not too dashing, wearing a white tuxedo typical of the dical world and wearing cylindrical glasses. They imdiately approached Ethan who was still daydreaming.
while Ethan was being examined, Luna made hot tea for Ethan while waiting for the inspection to finish. There were also so food and bread that Dina had brought and so friends and relatives who had visited Ethan.
"Do you still feel tight and dizzy?" asked the Doctor.
"No, Doc," replied Ethan, shaking his head slightly.
"This is a very rapid progress, you just need a complete rest to recover your body's condition and so that the surgical wound does not reopen before it dries," said the doctor with a relieved smile.
Ethan only responded with a nod. The doctor imdiately said goodbye to him and Luna.
After the doctor ca out, Luna approached Ethan with a cup of tea with a not-too-sweet taste and a spoon.
"Drink first, you must be thirsty," said Luna while blowing the tea, then scooped it up and thrust it into Ethan's mouth.
"Hot?" Luna confird.
Ethan just shook his head. Luna returned to feeding Ethan with the tea again, landing a few mouthfuls of Ethan asking to stop.
"How is Edward doing?" asked Ethan. "While I was conscious, I heard gunshots, but I felt like the bullet didn't reach my body anymore. Was he shot?" he continued with great curiosity.
The happy smile at Luna because Ethan had co to his senses slowly faded when Edward's na was ntioned.
"Honey, answer ," Ethan whispered.
"Yes he was shot," answered Luna finally.
Ethan felt uneasy then asked, "but he survived, right?"
Luna looked pityingly at Ethan, who loved Edward and didn't want any hostility or bloodshed, but all of that couldn't be avoided because Edward kept acting up.
"Honey, why are you silent? Answer ." Ethan started to get restless, seeing Luna who was about to cry instead.
Luna grabbed Ethan's hand. "He's dead, honey. Doctors couldn't save him," she said sadly.
Instantly Ethan limps and closed his eyes for a mont, clear beads began to escape from his eyelids. "He left so fast, why is all this happening? I never wanted this to happen! He's my brother, my only brother."
"Patience, honey. Maybe this is the way of destiny. All we have to do now is pray for him so he can rest in peace."
"He must be resentful that I imprisoned him too, but I had to do that because he went too far. I thought he would realize his mistake, but...." Ethan was still regretting why Edward was so hard to lt away, even before the incident of kidnapping with Luna. already tenuous.
"It's hard to accept this fact, especially as Sarah is also pregnant. I couldn't even stand being in Sarah's position, she was devastated."
"Are we selfish?" asked Ethan suddenly.
Luna shook her head. "We have the right to be together because the selfish one is Edward who can't admit his mistake for leaving first. Envy and obsession make him seem insane, I realized that when I lived in the villa with him," she said, rembering Edward's behavior.
"What did he do? He hurt you, tortured you, but he said he wanted to have you." Ethan still didn't understand.
"He is like a depressed person, his attitude changes very easily. He will lt when he sees crying, I try to deal with it with a calm attitude, but at night ...." Luna was embarrassed to tell her how Edward had almost stained her, even leaving marks on her neck.
"What did he do to you?" asked Ethan with a probing look.
"He almost raped , brutally kissed . Maybe you'll hate after this." Luna let go of Ethan's hand.
Ethan shook his head and held Luna's hand. "Don't say that, I'm not disgusted or anything at all. You are still honorable in my eyes, you are an honorable woman and I will not let anything like that happen to you again. I will take care of you."
Luna looked down and cried rembering that scary night. If she wants to be angry, the one who will be angry has died and left a wife who is more hurt than her.
"Did mommy know about Edward's death?" asked Ethan. Gosh, he didn't even know that Dina had t him earlier. he was so completely asleep that he didn't even notice anyone coming.
"Yeah ... Mama also still had ti to attend Edward's funeral, see Edward for the last ti," answered Luna while wiping her tears.
Ethan frowned and asked, "is he buried?"
"Yes."
Ethan is sad again. "Why not wait for to wake up? I also want to see him one last ti to apologize. God, I feel so guilty!"
"Honey, you haven't realized since last night, it's impossible to wait for you who doesn't know for sure when you wake up. sincerely, you can't see his face anymore, but he will always be in your heart, he will always be in our mories, he's a part of our lives." Luna tried to calm Ethan down.
Ethan sighed in exasperation, rembering the many monts he had with Edward since childhood. however, that man is an older brother who has always looked after and played with him since childhood, until all the feuds occurred because of a woman. I don't know who is to bla? Because everyone has the right to be happy, choose their life partner.
