Three weeks have passed, Ethan is increasingly unable to control his longing for Luna and his two babies. He vents that longing by continuing to work without regard to his health. The man works early in the morning and comes home at night, often goes out of town, and even visits abroad. His beard was already thick and his hair was a little longer than usual.
Ethan wanted to pick up Luna, but he was afraid it would make her even angrier because she hadn't asked her to pick him up. He didn't want to be hated even more and chose to let it be so he could find peace.
in Batam, Luna diverts her longing for Ethan by focusing on taking care of the twins, visiting old friends' homes, and occasionally helping her mother control the company left by her late father there. that way she often feels tired and drowsiness easily strike at night so she can still sleep soundly. Although occasionally the memory of worrying about her husband continues to influence her mind to immediately ask to be picked up. but the woman still puts her selfishness forward and is reluctant to ask to be picked up if it is not from her husband's own will.

Currently, Ethan is on his way back to Jakarta after visiting an important meeting in Bandung with Andrew and Nathalie. The three of them got into Ethan's car. Andrew was driving with Nathalie sitting beside him, while Ethan was sitting in the back leaning his head because he felt a little dizzy.
"We'll stop by for dinner, I'm hungry," said Andrew, glancing at a restaurant that was still open.
"I'm not hungry, you guys just eat," replied Ethan with a flat look. Sometimes he glanced at the smartphone that had been in his hand. He saw Luna's posts posting photos of Keenan and Keyra. at least by looking at the photo, Ethan was relieved to see his baby getting more and more adorable.
"But since this morning you haven't eaten, I'm worried you'll get sick if you eat late," said Nathalie as she looked back.
"I'll eat at home later," replied Ethan.
"Well, we don't have to stop by the restaurant then," said Andrew, who drove Ethan's car back faster.
"Take me home, Drew. You'll just take the car to your home later," Ethan said sadly.
"Looks like he's not feeling well," Nathalie whispered, glancing at Andrew.
"I don't know, maybe he misses his wife," said Andrew.
Ethan felt his stomach churn and nausea and dizziness started to hit him until he couldn't take it anymore.
"Andrew, stop I'm going down for a bit," Ethan shouted.
Andrew immediately stopped th
e car to the side of the road, while Ethan immediately opened the door and staggered out. He lowered his head as if to vomit up his guts, but all that came out was a clear liquid that made his mouth taste bitter.
Nathalie and Andrew who were worried about Ethan, immediately went outside to see how he was.
"You must be sick." Andrew massaged Ethan's nape. Meanwhile, Nathalie just stared at her boss who looked pale in pity.
"Maybe just a cold." Ethan stood up straight again and was about to get into the car. But his steps stopped and his body became weaker until he fell. Luckily Andrew was able to support his body.
"Open the door!" cried Andrew in a little panic. he walked Ethan to the car, while Nathalie quickly opened the door.
"Let's just take him to the hospital, Drew," Nathalie shouted as she helped Andrew support Ethan, who was still conscious but weak.
"Just take me home, I just need a break," Ethan exclaimed.
"But you're very pale, sir. It must be because you haven't eaten all day. I've noticed these days that you don't eat much and often drink coffee." Nathalie looked a little annoyed at Ethan's disregard for health.
"Later, let the doctor come to the house, you just need to take me," said Ethan as he sat in the car seat.
"We'll just take him to his house," Andrew said as he closed the car door again.
"Okay," replied Nathalie. She immediately got into the side of the wheel, while Andrew also got into the steering wheel. He immediately drove Ethan's sports car at high speed, because it was still halfway to south Jakarta where Ethan lived.

in Batam, Luna was staying up late with her mother and babysitter, because the twins were fussy. The two babies continued to cry when they wanted to drink milk or suck Luna's milk. Their bodies are also hot and visible white spots around their tongues and lips.
"Your child is hot inside, Luna. maybe they feel sore when they drink milk or breast milk," said Rita while cradling Keyra who was still whining.
"So what, mom?" asked Luna angrily while cradling Keenan. This was difficult for her because she was a new mother.
"I will call the nearest doctor," answered Rita, then gave Keyra to Anna, who was also worried because her foster children were fussy. "Carry her first, I want to get the cellphone in the room," he shouted.
Rita immediately came out of Luna's room to her room. while Luna was still trying to calm Keenan with Anna and Gita who were trying to calm Keyra down.
"They are thirsty but in pain when they want to drink, what a pity," said Luna, looking down at her little Ethan sadly. sometimes she calls baby Keenan "little Ethan" because he looks so much like his father.
"If it's like this, usually they will be given some kind of medicine that is applied to their lips, it will reduce their pain when it's minimal," Anna advised..
"Hopefully the doctor will come soon and give the medicine," said Luna with a worried expression.
Drett ... drett .....
Luna's smartphone on the table rang. However, because she was focused on her two babies, Luna ignored the call so many times she continued to ignore it.

Arriving at the house, Ethan was assisted by Andrew as he walked into the house, while Nathalie followed while carrying Ethan's briefcase.
Knock...knock...knock....
Andrew knocked on the door because it was locked. It was eleven o'clock at night, maybe Ira was asleep.
Check....
Ira looks with a face that just woke up, a bit surprised to see Ethan unable to walk alone.
"Oh my God, sir, what happens?" Ira asked.
"He's sick, Ma'am," replied Nathalie.
"Just take me to the twins' room," said Ethan in his very low voice.
Andrew and the others immediately escorted Ethan to the twins' room. Because the man had been sleeping in his nursery for the past few weeks.
"Ma'am, call Mr. Ethan's regular doctor right now, let me give the news to Mrs. Luna," said Nathalie while following Andrew who was taking Ethan to the twins' room.
Arriving in the room, Andrew immediately lay down Ethan's body and put the blanket on. he looked at his boss who was dashing with his beard that added to the manly impression, now looking limp and helpless in the nursery. The man glanced around the room, which looked crowded because the walls were depicted with cute baby characters, then looked at two baby cribs with a hanging toy attached.
'He must miss the twins and Mrs. Luna. when he's sick like this, how can he possibly pick them up,' Andrew thought while looking pityingly at Ethan who just stood still holding his stomach.
After almost 30 minutes of waiting, finally the doctor Ira had called arrived. he immediately checked Ethan's condition who continued to feel nauseous and dizzy. Andrew and Nathalie are still faithfully waiting for their boss who is in pain without being accompanied by his wife.
"His stomach acid is rising, you should have bed rest and eat regularly. Avoid eating spicy and sour foods. he can't drink coffee either," explained the Doctor after examining Ethan.
"He hasn't eaten since this morning, Doc. Since a few days ago he has also eaten irregularly and instead likes to drink coffee," said Nathalie. Andrew nodded in agreement because he who was always with Ethan and watched over the past few days didn't care about his health.
"Well, that's the trigger. If it's chronic, it will be dangerous. But this is still relatively moderate. I'll give him medicine to relieve his nausea and dizziness." The doctor took several types of medicine from his bag, then gave them to Ira.
Ethan ignored the presence of the doctor and the others. His gaze was fixed on the smartphone that had been in his hand. 'Luna, Why don't you answer my ballé? I miss you and the kids,' he thought so sad.
