CHAPTER 248

((( ZHIO )))

Claire has gotten unconscious and her hands were so cold.

My hands have gone deadly cold too.

I was so scared.

I couldn't even speak as she was rushed to the emergency room.

What happened to her?

Eriez inquired to his colleagues who attended to Claire…

But he only shook his head at me when he returned to lounge.

What did that headshake meant?

My fists clenched as I followed him back inside the emergency room.

A female doctor immediately talked to him when we got inside so I approached Claire instead.

She was delicately lying down the hospital bed.

I had a guess what happened but I didn't want to believe it was real.

I didn't even had the courage to ask and confirm if that gut feeling was true.

I didn't want to know that our baby…

God…

(CLAIRE)

When I woke up, my body felt as if it was floating on a river of ice.

I didn't feel cold; I felt numb.

But there were streaks of pang going down my tummy.  

It hurts… The baby?

What happened to the baby?

I attempted to rise up but strong hands gently forced me to lie back down.

It was Zhio.

His eyes were still red as if he'd just cried.

"Zhio…" He suddenly hugged me.

"Zhio," I started crying too, "…our baby…"

He kissed my forehead and looked me in the eyes.

"Kevin survived," he smiled, "but he nearly left us."

"Zhio…," I hugged him back.

"I'm sorry."

He hugged me so tight,

"Honestly, I've been afraid. I didn't want to lose any of you."

I've also been scared.

Especially with that hateful memory that resurfaced when I saw Derick.

I nearly lost my baby.

We nearly lost our baby.

"Thanks God…Kevin didn't leave us."

My tears fell harder.

"Shhh. Don't cry like that. Kevin might leave us completely if he sees you sad," Zhio lifted my face to him.

But what happened that night in the bar…

What if Kevin wasn't Zhio's?

What if something happened between me and one of Derick's friends before something happened between Zhio and I?

That made me cry a bit harder.

"Claire…"

"Zhio. I need to tell you something."
