(Choon-Hee POV)
I woke up with a cold and pain all over my body, when I looked around and found that I was still in the same room. Though I wish I was near Edwards, ah .. I miss my husband. I miss him, who always hugs me warmly.
My eyes glanced to the side, there was Lita's doctor who was smiling sweetly. "How are you Choon-Hee? I came all the way for you." She said with a sweet smile, I just nodded. There's at least one person I know well here.
"How is my womb? why can I be infused?" I asked confused, she smiled again and gently stroked my hair.
"You don't worry, your baby is fine. You're too tired. You have a lot on your mind. Are you thinking about Edwards? Don't ever think too hard Choon-Hee, you have to remember more than anything else. Your baby is something you should take care of and take care of, you just need to be a good mother and keep praying as a wife. Sometimes, problems come shamelessly and in a hurry. But we as human beings who have reason, just have to understand all the things that happen." She looked very gently, I held her hand tightly and sighed softly.
"Can I hug you? I need a place to lean on." I said slowly, she immediately nodded and helped me half awake. Then she hugged me tightly, I felt the fresh floral scent from her body. a scent that makes me really calm and comfortable, Doctor Lita is so considerate. I know whatever is given to me is sincerity, I'm sure she will take care of me and my child.
"Sometimes, someone who is sad. No need for anything other than a hug. You know why?" She asked quietly, we still hugged for a long time. In fact, I don't want to let go.
"Why? I love cuddling." I said in a very small voice, I wanted to be spoiled with someone. But since there is only Doctor Lita here, I can only be spoiled with her.
"Because, Hugs can provide a sense of security and reduce stress. Individuals who are often hugged regularly as a child have lower stress symptoms than individuals who are rarely hugged in their childhood. Hugging will make you calmer." I laughed a little at Lita's words, then let go of the hug from her.
She touched my belly which was already more bloated, I didn't realize that my baby was growing as time went on.
"I need my husband, mother, father.. I need them to feel close to me. I have been abandoned since childhood and thirsty for love, now when I am pregnant and really need them, God take them and stay away from my side. Why? do i really not deserve to live relying on other people? even though i am not as strong as they think, even though i am actually very weak and need hugs from everyone ?
One question that is always in my little brain, why does it feel like happiness is reluctant to linger by my side. when I realized there was happiness in front of my eyes, then at that moment that happiness disappeared without me knowing it. I'm just afraid, when the time comes I had to walk alone again, with no one else I could walk with. Even I am afraid that my son will leave me too, and I will be alone again? again.. that word is like a friend in my life." I said weakly.
I don't know what to do when the world suddenly turns away, Doctor Lita's sighs I can hear. She held both my hands and gave all the strength she had, she was confused. just like me, she was restless. just like me.
How can this heart be okay? when all the things that I thought were beautiful, had to be swallowed up in time. My life is like bitterness without any sweetness at all.
Gradually the bitter taste made the tongue taste bland, until I couldn't taste anything else. I don't know the taste is sweet, spicy, sour, salty.. then I don't know what happiness really means.
Am I really numb?
That's why I can't cry right now? I didn't cry when my mother left and Edward wasn't here. I just feel there is one missing from my heart, what is it? crowd..
Because I was suddenly very lonely after waking up and seeing this world again.
"Choon-Hee, the lab results will be out this afternoon regarding your health. I hope you're well enough to go by helicopter, so we can go straight to Edwards. This morning, when I came and checked you. your blood and the others, I told my most trusted friend to go to the nearest hospital and have the blood sample tested. We'll wait for the results, I'm sure you'll be fine. We're going to see Edwards and find out about your mother, you don't Don't worry, all of Edwards' special team has moved quickly to find out who is behind all this and also look for your mother.. You just need to pray..
do you trust me?" she asked quietly.
I couldn't help but nodded and asked her for another hug. I will believe, I always believe in the people around me.

(Author Pov)
Doctor Lita came out of the room and started to look at her cellphone, she wanted to monitor how the temporary results from the laboratory were out, even though Lita was in too much of a hurry in this matter. But what can you do? She really wanted to know what happened to Choon-Hee.
She had a bad feeling, seeing Choon-hee's condition getting thinner and it seemed like she was really sick. What's more, the mental pressure and thoughts that she feels right now, losing her mother and being separated from her husband. What's more annoying than that? Who is the woman who can really endure.
As an obstetrician, of course, Lita's doctor wants Choon-hee's baby to be born safely and her mother healthy too. This is a responsibility that must be carried out by Lita, whatever happens, Lita's doctor will fight for Choon-hee and the baby.
She sees an incoming call, from one of her friends whom she trusts. Picked up the call and started asking anxiously.
"How? did something happen!? Choon-Hee is fine right?" Doctor Lita asked her friend.
"I'm not sure I can say she's fine, but I think she's still in stable condition at the moment. I don't know tomorrow and so on, I ask you one thing. You didn't know that your patient had cervical cancer?" That one question made foot Lita immediately limp, she sat down and stared blankly at the blue ocean in front of her.
"Cancer? How can that be? I.. I don't know.." Lita said in a very low voice, and a sigh could be heard clearly on the other end of the phone.
"You don't know? Really? How can you be careless in something as serious as this? Lita, she's a special patient. You know very well that Choon-Hee and Edward are not random people, how can you be late in realizing something like this?" There was a tone of disappointment from Lita's friend's words there.
"I only know that she has a tumor in her uterus, I don't know anything else. It's been a few months since I didn't check her womb, because she's not in the same country as me. But... I didn't understand that she could get cervical cancer" Lita said in a low voice, she had no reason to defend herself anymore.
"And you didn't check again after that? You know very well, that uterine cancer or uterine cancer is a malignant tumor that grows in the uterus. Uterine cancer begins when healthy cells in the uterus grow uncontrollably and form a tumor or lump.
The tumor is can be benign or malignant. In uterine cancer, the tumor can enlarge and spread to other organs. And the tumor you see is already malignant to the point of forming cancer. I am quite saddened by this, especially since Choon-Hee is pregnant." She said with a rough sigh, Lita really knows. She knows very well what is going on in the cancer process itself.
"Can you do something? advice for me, help Choon-Hee to keep her child? Tell me, you're my friend." Doctor Lita said in a restless voice and really felt guilty.
"I think the pressure on her and her heart made her immune system weak, that's why this cancer is fast attacking and only seen now. It could also be Choon-Hee who always holds the burden of thoughts and feelings in her heart, which makes all thoughts it's a disease. We can only do other things when she can come to the special hospital, I'll be right there this afternoon. Make sure Choon-Hee is also brought there immediately, We can't delay anymore, because this is very dangerous for us. the fetus." She said slowly.
"But? can she get on a helicopter?? will the baby be okay?" Ask Lita's doctor again.
"Give me the medicine I sent earlier, it can calm the baby and mother's condition. It's better for Miss Choon-hee to be unconscious during the flight, because it can make her calmer. Don't delay Doctor Lita anymore, or we won't be able to save mother or her son." The telephone line was turned off, Doctor Lita's eyes immediately closed and she felt very tight in her chest.
"Doctor? What's wrong?" Agent Ree's voice made Lita lift her head and look the other way, she could smile unenthusiastically, Doctor Lita, to be more precise, was scared.
"We have to prepare Choon-Hee for the flight, prepare all the Guard Teams you have. I you special preparation and make sure there are no problems on the flight this time, I want Miss Choon-hee's safety to be our priority right now." Doctor Lita said in a serious voice, Ree who heard this immediately nodded. She pressed the red button on the back of her watch, as a sign that the special forces and security team had to get ready for work.
"Is Miss Choon-Hee okay?" Ree asked with a bit of curiosity.
"For now Yes.. But in the future, I don't know. More precisely, we can only pray." Lita said in a hoarse voice, she wanted to cry. Yes.. now it's Lita's doctor who really needs a hug.
"Don't worry, everything will be under our control." Ree immediately grabbed Lita's hand, seeing that the woman was actually crying.. It even proved to be already cold and quivering, it was clear that it seemed to be already at a weak stage.
