I had just arrived home when I caught up with Manang preparing for our dinner.
"Where is my wife?" I asked as I grabbed a drink from the refrigerator.
"She's in the bedroom resting, Sir."
"ALEEEEEEEEEX"
Because of that noise, I let go of the glass I was holding and ran to our room.
When I opened the door, I was surprised to see that there was blood flowing over her.
"W-What h-happen?" I asked tremblingly.
Sofia could not answer because she lost consciousness. I immediately approached her and picked her up; I ran back to my car.
"Call them. NOW!" I ordered our Nanny.
I'm shaking while driving fast. "Baby, stay with me" I'm holding her hand. "You'll be fine, I promise you."
Just minutes after we arrived at the hospital, the nurses and doctors were waiting for us.
I don't know what to do when they get Sofia inside. My hands trembled in fear, in fear of what might happen to my wife and baby.
"What happens, Alex?"
I turned around and saw Sabrina, and they came one after the other, including Mama and Sofia's family.
I shook my head; I didn't realize that my tears were dripping from my eyes. "I don't know," that's what I answered because I didn't really know. I was also shocked to see Sofia in such a situation.
Mom hugged me. "They will be fine."
"I-I saw blood coming from her h-her" I couldn't continue what I was going to say out of fear.
"DAMN IT! SHES NOT ANSWERING," Sabrina said angrily.
"Same here. I think Veronica's phone is off". Kit

Sofia Angelique
I slowly opened my eyes. They are all here; their eyes are watery same as Alex. He's holding my hand. "What happens?" I held my tummy at the same time.
I was shocked. "I can't feel my b-baby," I cried saying. "Alex, where is my baby ?!"
They started crying, "Damn it! I'm asking where my baby is!!!!?"
"Love, listen to me."
I looked at Alex. "My baby?"
It shook over and over again. "Alex, no! I've felt him before, Alex!" he hugged me. "I've been carrying him in my stomach for eight months, then that's all that will happen-" I couldn't continue what I was going to say because I was already crying.
Suddenly the nurse "Maam/Sir" came in and handed me a baby.
I froze when I saw her not breathing. "N-No! Baby No !!!" I hugged her tightly. "No. Why? !!! Why my little angel? !!!!!! I'm sorryyyyy ..."
Sabrina
Sofia was first injected with sleeping pills so that she could rest because she had been crying for several hours.
Silently we stared at Sofia.
Alex was just silent as he wiped Sofia.
We never expect this to happen. We already have plans for her when she comes out. But I didn't expect that all our plans would be changed and the plan would go uphill. We already loved her when she was still in Sofia's womb. For us, God gave us Sofia's child. That's why we can't even be with the gift that God gave us.
"Xy and Sab, can you prepare the burial?"
We nodded in Alex's favor.
"We will prepare for our grandson to use," said Daddy, Sofia's father.
"Come with us, Alfonso."
"Thank you," Alex said softly.
Tita Beth tapped Alex's shoulder. "You need to be a strong son, for Sofia. And you should be prepared for everything because it is not easy for a mother to lose a child" and Tita said goodbye to Tito.
"We're ahead too."
Alexander
Sofia has remained silent until now, from the time she was discharged from the hospital until the end of our baby's funeral.
"Give her some time. My daughter is still hurting. Sofia's mom was like that when Mark disappeared from us."
I nodded to Daddy. "It takes time to heal the wound, I know that's how you feel, but we are the man we should take care of them because it's not easy for a mother to lose a child because it's not a joke to carry them for nine months in they are in the womb and go to nothing. "
I didn't expect this to happen, and this is the war I didn't prepare for. We were all excited, but we didn't expect him to disappear so soon from us.

"Love, let's eat."
She looked at me. "I'm not hungry" she lay down immediately.
She's cold. Some days she's like that, not eating sometimes.
I sigh. I went out of the room to put the food back on the table. "Nanny, can you stay here until Sofia is okay"
"Of course."
"Thanks, nanny. I don't know what to do."
"Son, in this situation, you have to be brave because not only your child will be lost but also your wife. It's different when you're a mother and you lose a child."
I did not speak because I myself didn't know what to say about Sofia and me's situation.

"How's Sofia?"
"I don't know. She can't even speak to me."
Sabrina tapped my shoulder. "Maybe she blames herself; that is why." she sighs.
"But I'm not blaming her."
"Yes, you don't but her? Maybe, that's a different thing," Sabby. "But wait, I haven't seen Veronica yet?"
"For what else?" Kit.
"Excuse me? She's Sofia's Ob-Gyn; she must have been there when Sofia was admitted to the hospital."
I even thought about what Sabrina said. She's right; even Veronica's call was not received.
"Xyrus, find her as soon as you can," I command here. "And Sab, can you go to the Hospital where Veronica works?"
She nodded at me. "Kit, join me at FGC (short for Forrez-Group Company)."
We stood ready to leave. I first went to the kitchen, where Manang "Call me if something happens, okay?"
And we left.

When Kit arrived, I went straight to my office. When I was sitting in the swivel chair, suddenly a woman came in who was also in office uniform.
"Hot," Kit whispered.
"Who are you?"
She smiled at me. "I'm Lexie Cantal, your new Secretary."
I nodded; of course, I was looking for a secretary because our secretary quit because he needed to accompany his parents to the state for medical.
"Your resume"
She immediately handed me the one she was holding. I immediately passed it to Kit; I looked at her again because she was still standing there while looking at me. "Back to work," she came out immediately.
"Boss, be nice to her."
"Shut up, Kit. Send that Xyrus and tell him to check that woman if something mysterious about her"
Suddenly she smiled on her lips. "Sure. I feel like I'm going to marry her."
"Time to work, Kit. I didn't bring you here to flirt" when it comes to businesses or companies, you can count on Kit.
I texted Sofia first before I started my work.

I parked my car as soon as I got home. "How is she?" I asked manang when he greeted me, "Maam is crying again, Sir, while she is looking at the room that should be for your baby."
I shook; maybe that's a bad idea for building it in advance. Because of that, Sofia is suffering; she remembers what happened to our baby.
"Will you prepare something for me to eat?"
I shook my head. "Rest first, Manang" I went straight to our room.
I saw Sofia lying in our bed. It turned its back on me, so she didn't even notice that I was already there.
I got dressed first; after I got dressed, I approached her. I heard sobbing, so I lay down next to her and hugged her. "Babe ... Our baby angel will be sad when she sees her mommy crying," I joked.
"I love you," I told her, but she never responded. I sigh
When will we go back to the past? I miss my wife. Even though I'm just next to her, I feel like I'm the only one who's fighting.
She's losing herself, and she forgets that she has me, but she decides to shut me out of her life.
