Chapter 43 - Feeling Scared
Luna sat in the chair right next to Ethan\'s bed. She continued to pay attention to her husband\'s face, which this morning looked fresh, now looks pale. Moreover, his head had a bandage attached and his nose was still using oxygen. The gallant man was very weak and helpless.
"Don\'t ever be like this again, I\'m afraid of losing you. Come to your senses, Honey." Luna looked sadly at Ethan\'s face as she rubbed the back of his hand, occasionally she also kissed her husband\'s hand. The pregnant woman missed cheerfully and comforting her man.
waiting for Ethan to not regain consciousness, Luna fell asleep while still sitting and her head resting on Ethan\'s bed. Her hand was still holding her husband\'s fingers faithfully.
Slowly Ethan\'s fingers moved, he tried to open his eyes and turned to the sleeping Luna. the man smiled as he stroked his wife\'s hair with his hand still attached to the IV.
\'I\'ll always stick around and fight for you, honey,\' Ethan thought.
Luna felt her head being held, she woke up and glanced at Ethan, who was smiling at her with wistful eyes. The pregnant woman raised her head and smiled with relief seeing her husband regained consciousness
"You are aware, I am very worried if you do not survive. The doctor said you are very critical." Luna stood up, then kissed Ethan\'s forehead.
"I will survive for you and our child," said Ethan softly touched Luna\'s stomach.
Luna sat back down with a smile and nodded and responded, "Of course, you have to endure. We\'ll live together until we\'re old."
Without realizing it, clear grains fell from Luna\'s eyelids. Yes! She cried again because could not cover the fear of loss that had been haunting her soul. The woman is very sensitive and gets carried away easily.
"Honey, don\'t cry," exclaimed Ethan as he stretched out his hand gently stroking Luna\'s tears.
"I\'m afraid of losing you since the hospital team called me and said that you were an accident, even critical. I couldn\'t calm down. "Luna was still sobbing.
"Sorry to worry you," said Ethan as he stroked Luna\'s cheek. "Come here, sleep with me. You must be tired if you sit like that all the time."
"It\'s okay, Honey. I\'ll just lay on the sofa later, if I lay beside you, you\'ll be annoyed." Luna wiped her tears and smiled reassuringly.
"Come here, we share a place, I want to always be close to you." Ethan looked pleading
"The nurse or doctor will scold me," said Luna.
"Don\'t think about them, I\'ll be fine if you stay by my side. Come here!"
Luna sighed and nodded accordingly to Ethan, feeling pity and longing. the pregnant woman immediately climbed into the bed right next to her husband, lucky that the hospital bed was wide enough. Of course, even that room was a VIPP room. Naturally, someone as rich as Ethan would have money for whatever expensive the wardrobe was.
"Kiss me," Ethan asked as he turned his face forward at Luna.
"Emma." Luna kissed Ethan on the cheek with an amused smile. Of course, because her husband seemed spoiled more than usual.
"Just so you know, I just remembered you and our unborn baby when I was in pain," said Ethan as he stroked Luna\'s stomach.
"Really? I was worried at that time. I had a bad feeling after being hit by a thorn." Luna held Ethan\'s fingers over her stomach.
"Thorns, why did you get pricked by thorns?" Ethan asked.
"I accidentally picked roses in the garden next to the house," replied Luna. She was very careful lying beside her husband, for fear of making his pain or uncomfortable.
"Hunches usually occur because of deep love, do you love me that deep?" Ethan asked softly.
"Of course. I\'m afraid of losing you, don\'t be like this again!" Luna replied sadly.
"I didn\'t want to get accident like this either, but my car brakes suddenly didn\'t work," Ethan said, remembering the moment before the accident.
"Why does it suddenly not work like that? Didn\'t you still use the car yesterday and everything is safe?" asked Luna.
"Yeah, maybe it\'s broken or something, let the police investigate," Ethan replied anxiously.
Luna sat down and was about to come down from the bed. "I\'ll call mom and Shandra. I haven\'t told them since earlier," she said.
"No need, I don\'t want to worry them," said Ethan prevented.
"It\'s a shame, I have to tell them about your condition. What kind of daughter-in-law would I be if I didn\'t tell my in-laws that her son was sick because of an accident." Luna insisted. she immediately got out of bed and took her smartphone from the bag which she placed on the table near the white sofa.
Ceklek...
There were a doctor and two nurses entering Ethan\'s ward, lucky that Luna had gotten out of her husband\'s bed. If not, she will surely be embarrassed.
While waiting for Ethan to be examined, Luna immediately contacted Dina, her mother-in-law.
"Hello, Mom," said Luna when she connected with her in-laws.
"Hello, Luna. You call me," replied Dina, sounding happy. Ah, of course, she\'s happy. Because it has been a long time since she talked with Luna because of her busy life as CEO at her company in Singapore.
"Uh ... Ethan had an incident, Mom," Luna slowly told me.
"What incident?" asked Dina, sounding panicked.
"Car accident, Mom," replied Luna. "But now it has passed the critical period," she continued so that her mother-in-law would not panic.
"Oh God, how come?" Dina sounded worried.
Luna sighed because she felt uncomfortable making her mother-in-law worried. however, she did have to tell her because Ethan was an only son, it was unethical not to tell her what happened.
"This is a disaster, Mom,"
"Soon Mommy will come to Jakarta," said Dina sounding sad.
"Yes, Mom. I hang up," said Luna.
"Yes, dear. Take care of yourself and Ethan."
The telephone line had been lost, Luna returned to focus on seeing Ethan talking to the doctor and immediately approached them.
"Are there any serious injuries?" asked Luna at the doctor.
"Not. your husband just experienced trauma in his head, he took a while for the healing process, "replied the doctor.
Luna nodded in understanding, then looked back at Ethan, who was no longer equipped with oxygen. It was rapid progress because her husband was already able to breathe stably.
"Well, excuse us for leaving " The doctor immediately left the room with his two nurses, while Luna was still faithful to accompany Ethan.
Ethan looked sadly at Luna, who looked lethargic. Maybe she was tired, especially when she panicked and went to the emergency room. since earlier the pregnant woman had not laid down enough, she occasionally massaged her waist which was hot and sore.
"Come here, sleep beside me," exclaimed Ethan.
"No, I\'ll just sleep on the sofa," replied Luna.
"But the sofa\'s uncomfortable."
"It\'s comfortable, I borrow your one pillow." luna took a pillow from Ethan, then led to the sofa which was maybe only 5 meters from her husband\'s bed.
Ethan could only surrender and could not force Luna who did not want to sleep with him. He also felt a little dizzy and drowsiness returned. maybe it is a reaction to the medicine given by the doctor.
Luna, who was already lying on the sofa, fell asleep slowly because usually during the day she always slept. Maybe also because she was relieved and didn\'t panic anymore. so, she could fall asleep.
