On a silent night at a mansion an heavy atmosphere covered a certain room where three people waiting worriedly.

Sillian Draunlass the man that seems like in the middle between fourthy and fifthy years old stand facing the window with  his hand gripping his staff tightly showing how uneasy he is.

“ Relax father, she will be okay “

........................

“ Really father, even though it was you who calmed me when i was waiting for my son to be born at that time why are you the one who worry the most now ? “

A man with blonde hair said that beside him to make him calmer, the man with blonde hair is actually his son-in-law Jullius Boltin who married his daughter and now has 2 children. At the time when his son is about the be born it was indeed Sillian who calmed him and said that everything will be okay and his child will be born healty.

This silent night is the night where Cire will giving birth to her child, Cire is Sillian’s youngest daughters.

In place of her husband who is already passed away three months ago, Sillian and his another daughter Anna came to Cire’s mansion  ten days ago to be by her side until her child is born.

‘ why are they so worry ? ’ with uneasy face Jullius’s said it in his mind while looking at another person in ther room, his wife Anna, a beautiful woman with silver hair who sit on a chair while holding a cup of warm tea, the tea however is still full, it seems that she is too anxious to drink the warm tea. In truth Jullius also fell worry about Cire, but their level of worry is clearly different.

“ This is different Jullius, i don’t know why but all i can feel is just uneasyness, you feel the same too right Anna ? “

Anna gives a nod after hearing her father.

Anxiety is the only thing that reflected on her blue eyes, ten days ago either Anna nor her father had this kind of uneasy feeling but then again this night is different, totally different.

“ Anna you looks pale, drink the tea it will help you “

To make them calmer is the only thing he can do.

If only that man is here right now perhaps the situation won’t be like this, the father of the child that soon will be born. Grief can be felt when Jullius thinking about his friend who will  never be able to see his child.  

With a lot of mixed emotions, the silent night continues

Minutes after minutes of waiting until finally, it can be heard. The baby’s cry.

The three who heard it show a great relieve face, Anna stand up from the chair and put the warm tea to a table beside her then walk to the room where Cire is.

Anna knock the door and asking if she can enter the room.

But there is no respond on the other side, Anna knock again.

After a while the door is opened by one of the maids who helped the labor, but strangely the maid show no smile on her face but an apologetic face followed by tears that slowly fall.

“ what happen ? “

While asking with low voice to the maid Anna can see her sister lying on the bed, with her right hand she touch the cheek of her newborn son. A smile can be seen on Cire’s face but her eyes are closed.

“ Cire ? ”

Walking to her sister Anna tried several times to call her, but Cire is not respoding Anna at all.

“ Cire you did it, your son look at him it’s your son Cire “

....................

“ Does.. does Cire get exhausted from the labor and fell unconscious? “

That is the worst thing that Anna can think, no maybe it sound wrong but that is actually the best think Anna wish for. The uneasyness feeling that gone for a moment is now come back and getting worst with her sister body who is getting colder, Anna wish that she only fell unconscious.

No one respond to Anna question, they just looking down unable to speak.

“ Cire my daughter, what happen to her ? “

Following behind Anna, Sillian and Jullius came inside the room. Sillian hastily approaching to stand beside Cire’s bed opposite from Anna position and put his hand on Cire’s shoulder checking on her condition.

“ SOME ONE ANSWER ME ! “

Shocked from Sillian’s shout, a maid tries to speak.

“ We are truly... truly sorry, we... we tried to save both of madam and madam’s son but... “

The maid beside Anna said it with apologetic face, she is the head maid of this mansion who is also helped the labor.

“ The process of the childbirth is really difficult, ma.. madam tried all of her might to save her son but... but she... ”

While looking down at the floor the head maid who is trying to explain what happen during the labor find it hard to speak, she is unable to look at their face, she is affraid that she will be blamed because of what happened.

“ No.. don’t say it ! “

Anna understand what happened to her sister, she is understand that her sister is no longer breathing but don’t want to accept it.

“ Anna... “

Jullius touch his wife’s shoulder to comfort her.

Unable to bear it anymore Anna who holding her sister’s hand tightly finally letting her tears to fall.

“ Rest my daughter “

As he said that Sillian kiss Cire on her forehead, Sillian rise Cire’s son and hold him.

“ his name, what about his name ? “

................

“ I-it’s Nexan “

The one who answer nervously to Sillian’s question is the head main who looking down ealier.

“ Madam said it in her last moment, she said that she want to see her son so i bring him to madam. Then she touch young master’s cheek and said ‘Nexan’ so perhaps thats is young master’s name “

“ I see, she named him acording to his father “

As if Sillian wanted to say sorry about the fact that the child born without either father nor mother Sillian gently holding Nexan.

“ Father i wish to raise him “

Having the same though with his father Anna said that she want to raise Cire’s son in place of Cire.

“ I swear that i will raise him like my real son, in Cire’s stead i will be his mother “

“ but.. what about you, Jullius ? “

“ yes father i agree, please entrust him to us  “

“ i understand, yes he need the love of a family. I will leave him to both of you, however you can’t tell him that you are his real parents, i don’t want he lives under a big lie “

“ we understand, father “

Still holding Cire’s hand Anna looking at her sister, Anna promised her that she will caring about her son, she promised that her family will be his family.
