Facade Love: Marrying A Perfect Husband

Harry felt his body go limp. Surprised and noted the hospital's name that Lily mentioned. Cleo asked anxiously after that call ended.

"What is it? Did something happen at grandma's mansion?"

Harry hastily drew Cleo to come with him.

"We have to hurry. Grandma was injured and she is currently being taken to the hospital."

Cleo was very surprised.

"How did it happened? And how..."

Harry gave orders to the driver to immediately take them to the hospital that he mentioned. And answered Cleo's question with the focus starting to fall apart. Harry shook his head weakly.

"I don't know what the details are. But Aunt Lily just contacted me. And says that grandma fell in the bathroom. I can't imagine anything bad happening to her. And I really hope she's okay."

Cleo didn't say much more.

They then reached the hospital in the shortest amount of time because Harry had asked the driver to increase their speed.

Uncle Dani, Aunt Lily, Christina, and also Kiky seemed to have swarmed the outer door of the ER where their grandmother was being handled. Harry hurried over to his uncle and aunt. Cleo followed behind him.

"What happened to her? And how is her condition now?"

Aunt Lily sobbed in her fear and anxiety. Forcing Harry to be worried and very impatient.

Uncle Dani had been patting Harry on the shoulder patiently.

"What exactly happened? No one person wants to talk it yet?" Harry was still waiting for someone to answer his question accurately.

"Your grandmother suffered serious injuries from the impact. Still under the doctor's control and we are still waiting for the news. We'd better wait for the doctor to speak."

Cleo could also feel great anxiety. But she did not dare to speak because this situation and everyone's feelings were not good. Cleo could only hug Lily warmly. Gave her peace because out of everyone, Aunt Lily was the one who looked the most shocked.

Lily had already voiced some of her regrets.

"I should have been more careful when taking a bath in your grandma's bathroom. I'm guilty!"

Everyone seemed to be able to hear Lily's wailing sobs clearly.

Harry then looked at Lily's face more seriously and asked.

"What does it mean?"

Lily couldn't reply. So that, Christina immediately stepped forward to represent.

"The bathrooms in our house are all damaged and are still under repair. So, Mom who had finished taking a bath in the grandmother's bathroom was accidentally spilled a little soap on the floor. And granny fell because no one had time to clean it. This is not purely my Mom's fault. But she really didn't do it on purpose."

Christina tried to explain but also wanted to defend her mother. Harry was already groaning in annoyance. Couldn't believe that this simple thing actually ends in a disaster that harms other people.

Harry then asked angrily.

"Where's Danniar? Isn't she the one who usually takes care of all the needs of grandma? Double checked all the conditions that occur around grandma? Did she not take good care of it?"

Kiky, who was not calm from the start but didn't show it, also gave the answer.

"Aunt Daniar is out of the home to buy something and Grandma seems impatient to wait for her. So she took the initiative herself to do any activity alone. You can't blame her either."

Harry seemed even more furious because there was no one he could blame. Cleo immediately tried to calm down.

"We should calm down and wait until the doctor gave us more information. Don't speculate randomly first. We entrusted everything to fate and the ability of doctors. We all better sit down and thinking clearly."

Uncle Dani immediately agreed and chimed in.

"What Cleo said is true. We should not panic and get too carried away with bad thoughts. I'm sure everything will be fine."

Everyone seemed to be listening well and trying to stay calm until they waited for the doctor to come out of the room that isolating Sofia. Harry, Cleo, and everyone else sat expectantly.

Lily had been crying constantly beside her husband to hug him.

"Dani… how is it? What should I do? I really don't want anything to happen to mom. She'll be all right, won't she, honey?"

Daniawan had gently hugged his wife gently and warmly to he also stroked his wife's head many times to feel calm. He nodded.

"Everything will be fine. I guarantee,"

Everyone who heard the narrative seemed to think the same thing. Cleo could already feel Harry's sour feeling beside her.

Then she tried to calm him down.

"I do believe, your grandmother will be fine because we all still need her." 

***

The doctor who checked Sofia's condition then came out when he had finished checking her. Sofia's family immediately rushed out to inquire about their grandma's progress.

Daniawan became the first man to ask.

"How's it going, Doc? My mother is okay, right?" asked Daniawan with his voice deep and hoarse. All the other members of his family followed suit.

The doctor had already removed his mouth mask and answered that question calmly.

"Your mother has gone through a period of crisis. But we just have to wait until she woke up more first. Please, don't bother her for a while."

"She has received quite serious treatment from us and has experienced a slight bone fracture. But all of us have done various attempts well. For the whole family, I asked not to worry too much. I'll excuse myself first."

The doctor and nurse, who came with him, then walked back to his room.

Harry and Lily were already breathing a sigh of relief when they heard that their grandmother and mother-in-law were all right. Christina and Kiky doing the same behind them.

"We are pleased if granny is okay. This incident really made us almost heartbroken. Granny is obviously too kind to be hurt more seriously."

"Angel must have protected her," Kiky also chimed in his old sister's words.

Daniawan nodded in agreement and voiced some of his arguments.

"As I said, Mom is finally fine. You guys are better to calm down here. I'll go take care of the administration."

Daniawan had left quickly to complete all hospital procedures. Harry then looked at everyone, especially Christina and Kiky.

"You should take your mother home first. Because I'm sure, Aunt Lily must be very shocked and tired right now. I'll look after grandma here," Harry gave orders to his two other cousins to take their mother away.

Lily spontaneously refused.

"I do not want. What if Mom woke up later? Can't I be the umpteenth person to see that in person today?"

Lily objected to Harry's request. Didn't want to miss any news about her mother-in-law. Lily obviously had to take better care of that woman because she had almost hurt her.

Christina, who was aware that Harry's decision was the right one, tried to persuade her mother too.

"What Harry said is true, Mom. You should go home and rest. Let the problem that is here, Harry and Dad were will take care of it. They will definitely notify you immediately if anything happens. You don't have to worry too much, Mom."

Kiky agreed to the decision.

"We should go home now. I'll ask Evan to get ready."

Evan is one of the Theodore family's private chauffeurs. Lily still looked reluctant to follow everyone's wishes. Harry had added back his tolerance.

"I will update whatever developments happen to Kiky. Don't worry and stay at home."

Lily immediately agreed reluctantly.

"Okay, if that's what you want. I'll go home early and come back tomorrow. Please take care of your grandma!"

Harry had nodded in agreement to his aunt's request.

Christina and Kiky had already taken their mother away after the three of them said goodbye to Harry and Cleo at the same time. Leaving a message for their father later, if their father searched theirs.

Harry then sat back in his chair and leaned his head against the wall behind him.

Cleo had followed him and sat down feeling uneasy.

"Your feeling is still not well?" Cleo was sure Harry was still very worried about his grandmother.

Harry was silent for a moment before answering.

"I'm much better now. But a bad memory suddenly haunted me. I'm not ready to hear something bad happen to the people around me again. My grandma, Sofia, had raised me at all this time and took good care of me. So, I..."

Harry paused for a moment as his heart seemed to have been hit by something big. Cleo had already touched his shoulder. Gave a boost of strength to make Harry feel better and gave her words of comfort.

"Your grandmother is fine now. You must have heard it clearly. And your grandma will definitely be sad if you think about it, like this."

Harry spontaneously hugged Cleo.

Cleo became nervous. Surprised by his impulsive behavior again, but was unable to scold him because the current situation supports them to share difficulties with each other.

"Just like I don't want to lose all people were there around me. I don't want to lose you either, Cleo. Without I know, I kept expecting you. Hoped you continue to be by my side. And, can you promise me about that? Won't ever leave me? And always there on my side?" 

Harry felt his warm embrace spread through his body.

Could feel too Cleo's heart was beating fast as he still held her tightly.

Cleo didn't answer for several seconds. Constantly feeling doubtful and not knowing what sentence best expresses her heart.
