Lightning flashed across the sky accompanying Carlista's every step, the poor girl who crossed her arms with her body shivering with cold against the cold temperature that seemed to penetrate the pores of her milky white skin.

Wet streets, people around running for cover. But not with him.

"Get out of my house, you stupid child, you have tarnished my name with your damn pregnancy!"

The firm words that seemed to pierce Clarissa's heart still echoed in her memory.

How his father who always gave him warmth and abundant love, she still couldn't imagine how she could bear to throw him out of the house that initially gave him happiness even though the memory of that happiness only lasted a few years before his arrival. from stepmother.

No affection, no warmth. A shelter house, moreover. Wet clothes, making his skin feel like it absorbs water trapped in the fibers of his clothes periodically, it seems she will catch a cold after this rain subsides. Then she will be sick.

But who will help him? Everyone around him felt foreign to him. I don't know where he is now.

Looks like the border of one city with another city. The darkness from the rain made him recognize nothing but the trees and the road he was walking on.

The more time passed, the weaker his body became. His legs were no longer able to support his weight anymore. His vision was getting blurry, he couldn't hold it in any longer.

He thought he should get away from this world and immediately be at the side of his late mother who was killed ten years ago by a car.

In between the collapse of his body, there was a car whose light was shining like it was piercing his brown eyes.

But amid the weakness of the body that had been lying, even to move a finger was not able to. Is this the end of my life, Lord? he asked quietly, closing his eyes slowly.

A middle-aged woman in fashionable clothes got out of her car. Closed the door, and approached the young girl who looked so pale.

' 'Miss? Are you okay? Wake up, Miss.” While patting Carista on the shoulder, the woman asked very worriedly.

Maya Sari, the old lady knew if it wasn't for her that this young girl lay helplessly here.

Maya just happened to cross the same road as the paved road that Carlista took, the pity that spread throughout her body brought her closer to Carlista and decided to find out more about her condition. But before all this happened, Carlista had already fallen, and that was what made him afraid that something had happened to this young girl.

“'Khan's driver!'' he shouted, turning his head towards the car that was still running, its two lights shining on Maya and Carlista.

Shortly after, an old man with a mustache got out of the car and approached Maya with an umbrella that seemed to stop the raindrops from falling from the sky. "What is it, madam?" asked the middle-aged man equal to Maya.

‘‘Quick, call an ambulance. We'll take him to the hospital!'' Maya said in an urgent voice.

The driver instead of doing as he was told, Khan stood with a look on his face that wanted to say something but was blocked by one thing or another that was on his mind.

' 'What is it, Khan! Hurry up, it's an emergency!'' Maya shouted.

Made Khan return to the stability of a complete mind again. ' 'That's madam. ugh…”

"So what!?" Maya said annoyed. How can this driver even delay time at a time like this.

‘‘This is the city limits, madam. The hospital is far away,'' said Khan, reasoning.

' 'Argh! Already. Pick up this girl, take her to the car!'' Maya shouted even more annoyed to have a driver who she thought was so slow to speak, also thinking.

After going through a bit of drama with the driver, Maya manages to get the frail Carlista to the hospital.

He had waited less than an hour in front of the room, the nurse finally came out of the examination room.

"'With the patient's family, Miss."

Maya immediately stood up from her seat and faced the nurse. Miss. Well, it was likely that the call was appropriate for a girl he didn't know.

''I, sus.''

The nurse narrowed her eyes. ‘‘Are you family, miss?’’

''Yes. I'm his family. Didn't I bring him here?'' Maya explained.

''Please come in. The doctor is waiting for you.”

Maya followed the nurse in front of her. It was just that they separated when the nurse walked closer to the bed where only the ends were visible because it was covered by the curtain.

Maya then turned to the doctor. The male doctor smiled kindly at him. ‘‘Mrs. Maya. Please, sit.''

Maya nodded in agreement, she sat and watched the doctor silently. "There's something wrong with my nephew, doctor?" he asked casually. Talking if Carlista was his niece, considering how he didn't know her at all.

''There is. Just a little bit.”

‘‘What is it, doctor?’’

The doctor opened a sheet of paper from inside the paper document. He shows the object in which there is an x-ray photo. Black and white.

' 'Hm, this is madam. Madam, can see it first.'' The doctor handed the object to Maya's hand.

Maya accepted it, and she was shocked by what she had just seen. ''Pregnant? She's pregnant, doctor?'' he asked surprised.

Oh, if we didn't rely on pity for the poor girl, surely Carlista would have died by now with the baby still growing in her womb.

Maya felt lucky inside. He didn't add to his life's already large collection of sins by caring for a girl, and that was a rarity in the nearly half a century he'd lived on earth.

' 'Yes, madam. Your niece is pregnant. And now, the fetus is already four weeks old. Still very weak and vulnerable. However, her mother's health was not in good condition. So we need to give him vitamins and nutrients through an IV line because on the other hand his mother also lacks nutrients, fiber, and various vitamins for the patient's survival.''

Maya just nodded with one question that suddenly crossed her mind. What happened to the girl before this?

After a short conversation, Maya left the doctor and approached Carlista on her gurney. Maya looked sadly at Carlista.

This girl, seemed to make him remember how his life had suffered so much that he almost lost his life and the baby he once had.

It's just that there is a slight difference in luck, where Carlista is in perfect condition without any scratches while she is like a dog that has just been beaten by its owner. Full of wounds. Especially at that time the sun was very unfriendly to him, at that moment Maya wanted to cry.

Maya sat up, she saw Carlista's stomach which was still flat but contained the baby in her womb. Maya touched and gently stroked the stomach covered in hospital clothes.

For some reason something warm entered his soul when he was touching the surface of the clothes that covered his stomach. Like when he touched his first unborn baby and would never be born into the world.

‘‘Your mother will definitely take care of you with me intervening in it. Be well, honey.”
