Super Planet System Behind The Moon - Chapter 61
(Told about Nick and Queen 20 years ago).
-20 years ago.-
Then, when winter came. A man just got out of his luxury car, with hasty steps he entered the delivery room in one of the most luxurious hospitals in the city. The look on his face was very confused, a mixture of panic and sadness. He had just heard the news that his wife, who was pregnant with their child at the age of seven, slipped from the steps of her house and fell. Which made him immediately rushed to the hospital. And of course, this makes the husband who is carrying out an important meeting in his office must immediately come and miss the meeting. He ran his car very fast so that he could get there and check on the two of them.
When he was already in the hospital and walked towards the room where his wife was, he saw an old woman in a black and white dress usually used by a maid, sitting in the hallway of the labor waiting room, which made the man immediately call out to her, “Yelen! ” Call the man to the woman who turned to him and immediately stood up from his seat.
“Mr. Edward!” Yelen called to the man who turned out to be Edward, with a panicked face the woman looked at the master.
Edward, who had arrived in front of the woman, turned to the delivery room whose door was still closed. “How is she?!” Edward asked the woman with a very, very frightened face, and panic.
Yelen shook her head slowly, then replied, “The doctor hasn’t come out of his room yet, sir!” The answer was explaining to Edward that the doctor who was treating his employer’s wife had not yet come out of the room.
Edward who heard the answer could only be silent and sat limply on the chair behind them. He felt sorry for not being able to take care of their wife and children so that both of them are currently in a critical situation like now.
Yelen who saw the regret gently rubbed the master’s shoulder, then said. “Now there is nothing we can do but pray!” She said, giving a suggestion to Edward who was now nodding in response to those words.
They had been waiting for about ten minutes, while Elen, of course, waited more deeply than Edward because she had witnessed the incident. Until finally the doctor came out of the delivery room and asked them who was the patient’s family. And Edward quickly proposed himself as a family. He looked at the doctor who was now looking at him very seriously, which finally made his heart beat fast.
“W-how are the two of them doing, Doctor?!” Edward asked to stutter because he still felt the fear in him, which made the Doctor now exhale slowly and then say very regretfully,
“My apologies, Mr.Ed… We have tried our best to help both of them, but we can only save your wife.” Regretted the doctor who made Edward’s heart shattered immediately after hearing it.
Edward did feel grateful and happy that his wife could still be saved, but… At the same time, he was also devastated to hear that the child they had been waiting for ten years was not saved. And of course, that made him a useless man at that time.
Edward never thought that fate would treat this cruel thing to himself and his wife. He felt very sad, and he knew that his wife would feel the same way, even more so than he felt.
Seeing his limp master, Yelen tried to divert the sadness that Edward was feeling, so she quickly said,
“Master, are you not going in?” And the question that was asked by Yelen at that time made Edward now immediately move from his place and just leave the place as if he wanted to be alone, and Yelen understood their situation.
…
Edward was currently walking around the city river, right next to the hospital. Edward couldn’t hold back all his tears after learning the news, so he cried and wailed alone, as loud as he could in that place.
“Why?? Why did this have to happen to me…. Why God?!” His words shouted, and coincided with the screams he did after that, Edward who raised his head to the sky saw twelve stars falling. Which of course made him stunned for a moment, though still sobbing.
Shut!!!
BYURRR!!!
“?!!” Edward was quite surprised when one of the falling stars swerved and almost hit him, but instead of hitting Edward, the star plunged into the water beside Edward at the time. Which made Edward now turn towards the river, making sure that what fell there was a falling star.
Edward squinted his eyes and widened when he realized something, which made Edward immediately jump into the river to take what he had just seen at that time.
“OOAAAAAAK!!! OOAAAKK!!!” A baby’s cry accompanies Edward who walks by the river, Edward’s breath now turns to stare into his lap where now a baby is crying after he had saved him from the river earlier.
Half did not believe it, but the other half felt that this was a miracle, because instead of seeing the asteroid rocks that were in the river water at that time, Edward saw a baby which he was now holding and immediately warmed him with the coat he had taken off before he went into that river before. The presence of the unexpected baby immediately healed the pain in Edward, which made him know … Maybe the baby came only for him and his wife by the Almighty.
…
As soon as Edward and his wife lost their child, as soon as they loved and happily accepted the arrival of the baby Edward brought into his wife’s room at that time.
“Did you take it from someone?” A question full of suspicion posed by the wife, made Edward shake his head vigorously in answer to the question.
“He doesn’t have parents who can take care of him, Marry, and I think only we can raise this child with love!” Edward explained to Mary. Without telling Mary what happened earlier, the incident led her to find the baby. He was afraid that people would think he was crazy.
Marry who heard the answer turned to look at the baby who was in her arms, a sincere smile was painted on Marry’s lips when she looked closely at the very handsome baby boy. Which in the end Marry nodded his head to agree with the words of his husband who said that he wanted to take care of the baby.
“Yeah… You’re right, Edward… I feel like we’re the only ones who can raise him well!” Mary said to Edward who was now smiling happily, and then asked,
“What name would you give her, Marry?” Edward asked Mary who was now looking back at the baby boy lovingly. She thought for a while before she finally decided on a name she wanted to give the baby.
“Nicholas… I will name him Nicholas, and we can call him Nick, what do you think Edward?” Mary asked Edward who was now exhaling slowly and smiling wider. Then nodded his head in agreement with the name that Mary gave for the baby boy who would become her child.
“Yes… I agree, Nicholas is a good name for him!” Edward replied which made Mary feel happy. That day they had indeed lost their baby who they loved very much, but on that day both of them welcomed Nicholas’ arrival full of emotion and happiness.
….
Nicholas was a lucky child, because both his parents were from the bloodline of a noble, which made all his needs met easily. However, over time, Nicolas or who was more often called by the name Nick who was then six years old, was completely different from other six-year-old children.
There is nothing that can attract his attention, he does not smile easily and even he will not pay attention to things around him other than silent and pensive in his room. Nick also doesn’t talk much at his age about who should have entered the stage of development of the communication process in children, and that’s what made Edward and Marry feel very worried about the conditions experienced by Nick at that time.
They finally took Nick to several doctors to check what condition Nick was experiencing, and one of the doctors said that maybe this was caused by the environment around him or Nick who didn’t have friends. However, Edward and Mary denied and said that their environment was a good one, and they always introduced Nick to children his age who were in their area or distant relatives.
“In that case, it would be good if you always take him to a place where children his age gather, go to an orphanage and let him have a look at the children there. I think they’ll get Nick to talk because I know the orphanage kids are good. They will invite any children who come there. And Nick’s caring thing will slowly emerge.” That was the advice given by a pediatrician, which was enough to make Edward and Mary feel confused and doubtful about the suggestion.
Those who weren’t sure at first finally took Nick to an orphanage where they often made donations, in the hope that what the doctor said was true and would bring about a change in their child.
