217 Forgive me

“Since she was brought out of the operating room she hasn’t cried at all. The doctor who treated her said it was normal, but we know if there is something wrong with her,” answered Romaria stuttering. “As a woman who has given birth to many children I know if a baby does not cry when its mother is born it means that something is wrong with it. However, after hearing her cry like this I feel a little relieved even though my chest feels tight.”

Anne immediately covered her lips with her hands, the tears she had been holding back for a long time finally fell down her face. The thing that is not much different also seems to be shown by Jack, he looks so shocked to hear what Romaria said.

Meanwhile Christian, he was already sitting on the floor with his head down. Hearing Romaria’s words make him suddenly remember what he did to Elena, Christian remembers that he had asked Elena to take the contraceptive pill he asked for from doctor Caitlyn. It’s clear that right now Christian is cursing his stupidity, he’s really very sorry for what he’s done to Elena. Even though he didn’t know at the time that Elena was pregnant, he shouldn’t have forced her to take the pill. Christian really has become the most asshole man in the world.

The tense situation was finally over when the sound of Elena’s baby crying stopped, plus a nurse appeared from inside Elena’s treatment room. The nurse’s appearance suddenly made Anne and Jack immediately approach her.

“How’s it going?” asked Jack impatiently.

“Thank God, doctor Jasmine managed to stop the patient’s bleeding,” the nurse replied with slightly shaky breaths. “The patient’s condition has also started to stabilize although at this time she is still unconscious.”

Jack closed his eyes, his lips moving slowly in gratitude.

“What the patient needs at this time is calm so she can wake up quickly and I ask that no one disturb her inside, the patient really needs calm at this time for her recovery,” the nurse said again, her gaze fixed on Christian who was still sitting on the floor.

“Yes, we will make sure no one disturbs the patient. Don’t worry,” said Anne seriously.

.....



The senior nurse nodded slowly, the next second she went back into Elena’s treatment room to tidy up the remnants of Elena’s blood that was scattered on the sheets and blankets covering her body.

“God will surely heal Elena,” Jack whispered softly to Anne who had just made a cross symbol on her chest, as a form of her prayer request to God to heal the mother of her beautiful granddaughter.

Anne nodded slowly. “Amen.”

Jack smiled, he slowly embraced Anne’s body and kissed her forehead gently. From where he was standing now Jack could see Christian looking so pitiful, holding the ring Romaria had given him several times, Christian banging his head against the wall until finally Kainer had to stop him from doing so. Even though Kainer is hurt because of Christian, but hhe still cares about him so much and this makes Jack a little calm at least there is someone he can trust to look after and encourage Christian when he can’t do that. As someone who has both been mean to Elena and Jack doesn’t want to talk much to Christian, his guilt is so great that he really can’t do that.

When things started to calm down, suddenly from the direction of the room that Jasmine had pointed out earlier, it opened and another nurse appeared from the room. Seeing that, Anne immediately moved quickly to her, as well as Christian who immediately got up from the floor where he was sitting.

“My granddaughter, can we see it already?” asked Anne quietly to the nurse who was still wearing her medical mask.

“You can ma’am, but only from behind the glass. Currently the baby is being prepared by my colleague. Later when you are finished you can all see it,” answered the nurse so politely.

Anne took a deep breath, after the tension that had occurred for the last few minutes there was finally some good news that came. Anne’s intention to ask the nurse about her granddaughter’s condition was stopped when a doctor appeared, a pediatrician whom Jasmine had mentioned earlier.

“Doctor...”

“Before you all see the baby, I beg you to remain calm and continue to think positively for her,” the doctor said in a very serious tone.

Christian who is standing behind his parents moves forward towards the doctor. “What do you mean, doc?”

The doctor named Kimmy lowered the mask that covered his face. “All the organs in the baby are not fully formed.”

“What?!” Christian screams loudly.

Anne immediately buried her face into Jack’s chest who was still holding her, her fear occurring. As a woman who had lost her baby who was forced to be born prematurely, Anne could tell that the worst could happen.

“But we’re still working on that with a note that he has to get intensive care and...”

“And what, doc?” An impatient Christian immediately interrupted doctor Kimmy’s words quickly.

“And I ask you all to remain calm seeing her condition is very different from the baby in general,” answered Doctor Kimmy honestly.

Christian immediately clenched his fists with his eyes closed.

“Ah, it looks like the nurse is done. You can all see it through the glass now,” Doctor Kimmy said quietly when she heard the sound of the curtain being opened.

Anne, Jack and Christian immediately turned their heads toward the glass whose curtains had just been opened by a nurse. The three immediately fell silent when they saw the condition of the baby who was currently in the incubator, her fingers were so small, the size of her arms and legs was not even half the size of a normal baby in general.

“Oh my God,” murmured Anne hoarsely, her chest hurting so much seeing the state of her granddaughter in front of her.

“We will continue to monitor her condition, all of you don’t worry,” said doctor Kimmy slowly, trying to strengthen the patient’s family who stood in front of her.

“Thanks for the help, doc.” Erick responded to Kimmy’s words quickly, representing the employer’s family who are currently in shock to see the condition of the baby Elena gave birth to.

Doctor Kimmy nodded slowly, not long after that she went back into the room where the baby was with a nurse who had previously met the Clarke family first.

With shaking hand Christian touching the glass that separated his place and the child, the tears fell again uncontrollably. Seeing the child so fragile made him unable to talk much.

“Forgive Daddy, dear....I’m sorry..” Christian said softly with such great regret, seeing the condition of his baby who had to receive a lot of medical equipment installed in her body made Christian curse himself again, cursing his stupidity.
