Fernando, who was waiting for news at home from his men who were looking for Viona, looked uneasy. He walked back and forth in his study alone. While William seemed to be tidying up Viona's belongings that had just been brought home from the hospital. Fernando had ordered that all the items in Viona's treatment room be brought home, including the tissue and sanitary napkins used by Viona which had blood stains. William asked the maids to sort out the items that had the most blood stains on Fernando 's orders. He still did not understand why Fernando ordered all the items to be brought home.

"Madame ... sob ..."

​​

"Hush don't cry, if Master hears you, we can all be punished," whispered a maid named Julie half whispering to her friend who was crying while tidying a bandage full of blood into a box. .

"She must have suffered a lot when she was bleeding last night, Julie. Look how much blood is in the sanitary napkins and tissues, sob ..." Bertha, the youngest maid, replied with a sigh.

"Don't cry, if Master knows, we can get into big trouble, Bertha," shouted Julia again in fear as she glanced at Fernando's office which was still tightly closed.

"Yes, but I can't hold my tears, Julie ... my tears came out by themselves I couldn't hold back sobs ..."

Bertha couldn't finish her words because her chest was too tight. She then ran to her room crying. Even though she wasn't the one who had a miscarriage but she felt sick when she saw and touched all the things that were stained with Viona's blood. She felt very sorry for the mistress who was very kind to her.

After Berta left, Julie stayed alone in front of the items stained with Viona's blood. Even though she didn't cry like Bertha but her eyes were full of tears. Both her hands were shaking violently as she moved the things into the box. Rita, who had been standing with Teddy, seeing the two maids doing their job, seemed helpless. Her emotions, even though deep down inside, her heart was also cut, she must be able to control herself in front of her subordinates.

"Thank you for helping me, Rita," Julie stammered.

"Its okay, now you take a drink and calm yourself then don't forget to wash your face first, lest the master see you like this," replied Rita in a friendly manner.

"Yes maa'am," Julie said quickly. She then walked quickly toward the back where her room was, wiping the tears that finally trickled down her face.

Rita took a deep breath as she saw the actions of her two subordinates. She then turned to see William and Teddy who had been standing at the piano without making a sound.

"This ..."

" Put the box in front of your master study, Rita," said William, interrupting Rita's words.

" Okay, Doc," Rita replied obediently. She carefully put the two boxes containing the sanitary napkins and tissues full of Viona's blood in front of Fernando's office, where there was already a box containing sheets and towels and Viona's patient clothes, which had already been separated.

Rita then went to the maids' room to check on Bertha and Julie who had been crying, leaving William and Teddy.

William looked up to the ceiling while closing his eyes. He had been trying to hold back his emotions so as not to get carried away. Although in his heart he was saddened to see the maids refusing to tidy up the things that were full of Viona's blood, until finally the two people who were appointed finally tidied up the things. Even though he was not a woman, his innermost side as a human was touched when he saw the maids were crying over the items Viona had used before.

"Are you alight, Doctor?" Teddy asked softly.

"I don't know, Ted, I almost lost my mind after all this happened," replied William quietly as he opened his eyes slowly.

"You better drink first, Doc," said Teddy softly as he handed a glass of cold water to him.

Without a word, William accepted the glass from Teddy. In one gulp, he managed to finish the whole glass. His parched throat was relieved instantly when the cool water pass through.

"Why are all these stuff brought home, Doc, wouldn't that ..."

Clicked!

Teddy was unable to finish his words when the door to Fernando's study opened. He immediately closed his mouth tightly when he saw the master emerge from behind the door with a flat face. Likewise with William. He immediately resumed a perfect attitude, when he saw Fernando standing at the door of his study, staring at the three boxes that had been tidied up.

Fernando sat in front of the three boxes in front of him. His hands slowly reached out to touch the three boxes in turn without a sound. Behind him, William and Teddy couldn't see Fernando's expression. They could only see that Fernando was currently touching the things in the boxes.

William's steps stopped when he almost got to Fernando, when he saw Fernando stood up while carrying the three boxes to the garden beside his mansion without a word. Some of the maids who saw the master carrying the boxes could only be silent and bowed, none of them made a sound. And so were William and Teddy, who walked slowly behind Fernando. They followed Fernando's steps until finally they arrived at the garden, where Fernando placed the three boxes carefully on a long chair.

"What are you ..."

William could not finish his words because Fernando turned around and walked slowly towards the garden equipment storage area. Soon, he walked slowly to where William was standing, carrying a hoe in his left hand. Without speaking, he then started digging the ground in front of him alone without speaking. The cloudy sky benefited Fernando because he was not too exposed to the sun.

"Let me help, Sir," Teddy said slowly as he tried to reach the hoe that Fernando was holding.

"Get lost!!" Fernando replied briefly without stopping his activities.

" But sir ..."

Teddy did not finish his words when William touched his shoulder slowly. William gave a code to Teddy not to disturb Fernando and let him do what he wanted alone. Teddy finally followed William. He closed his mouth while standing next to William, watching Fernando work alone, making a hole in the ground using the hoe. Fortunately, the gardeners often watered the soil in the garden, so it was easy for Fernando to dig it. After hoeing for nearly thirty minutes, finally a deep hole was made. Fernando slowly put his hoe beside him, he then washed his hands which were full of soil using water from a nearby tap. William and Teddy, who had been silent for a while, did not say anything. They were just silent watching what Fernando was doing.

Fernando then walked slowly to the chair where he had put the three boxes containing the items that were stained with Viona's blood. He then grabbed the first box which was filled with blood. Slowly he threw the contents into the hole he just made without speaking. After all the contents were in the hole, he then reached for the second box containing the tissues which was almost red. Like the first box, Fernando poured the contents of the second box into the hole he had dug. When all the contents had come out, Fernando then reached for the third box which contained Viona's blanket, sheets, towels and clothes. Using his hands, Fernando took out the items one by one from the box and threw them into the hole, united with the previous items. When there was only the clothes that Viona had worn last night, Fernando was seen hugging and kissing it for a long time.

"Forgive Daddy, son. Daddy made you have to go this way," Fernando stammered hoarsely.

Rumble!

Suddenly a lightning strike on the cloudy sky and accompanied by the heavy rain. The bloodstains on Viona's clothes that Fernando was holding faded and dripped onto Fernando's body.
