A day turns into a week and a month. There's still 2 more months before she can recover fully and discharge.
In that one month, Haven always visits her but she always remains the same. Not even try to open her heart again.
And today was also the same.
"How are you?" Haven asked.
"Fine as always," she replied.
"You don't want to take a walk?" he asked.
"I'm not a dog..." she said.
"T-that's not what I meant" Haven was anxious about what he just said.
"It's okay, I'm not mean it too. Let's take a walk..." Aviana stands and almost falls until Haven catches her at the waist.
Her hand was at his chest again but this time, she'll not let her guard down. She immediately stood properly and looked away.
"Let's go" Aviana walked out.
Haven just sighed at the back. Right after he finished all his paper, he tried to visit her even though she didn't want to because she said it's just trouble him.
"Don't you have work?" Aviana asked.
"I-I do...but-"
"Then, why are you here?! I'm just troubling you more. You should focus on what you have now before you lose it too...stop thinking about past Haven, that's what you said to me..." she stopped in front of him.
"But you're not my past, you're never my past! You're my future, always be my future!" he said.
"Even so, you are my past, Haven. You are no different from Vinod if this is what you keep doing! And even if I was your future, it's only dark in it, Haven, please..." she said with sorrowful eyes.
"Okay, if that's what you want...I'll go and for your medical fees, I'll help with it as my last thanks to you for be with me..." Haven turned around and walked away, no turning back as she already said what she want.
"I'm sorry Haven...I'm afraid you might hurt me again, I don't wanna lose you forever if I keep holding you...enough with my family and my child, I don't want you to be like that...please forget about me" her heart whispered as one tear dropped.
Aviana went back to her room and saw the kids were playing at the playground happily with their parents.
"I used to be like that and almost be like that but life was too cruel until I didn't even have anyone..."she mumbled.
Haven went to the office with disappointment again and couldn't concentrate on his work. She's safe there but he just can't let her be alone, not again.
With a promise that he already made to not look for her again, there's no way for him to look after her as he can't break another promise.
...
"Hello Melinda," he called.
"Yeah, sup bro" Liam answered.
"Where's Melinda?"
"Why do you need to talk with my wife huh?" he asked.
Haven sighed "it's been 2 month and I'm suffering here without visiting Aviana" he said.
"And?~" Liam got excited.
"I need Melinda to visit her for me," he said.
"Finally talk about this huh? Fine, I'll tell Melinda but you really need to clean this thing entirely with her..." Liam said.
"Okay, thanks Liam" he ended the call.
"Darling~ who's that?" Melinda hugged Liam from the back.
"It's Haven...he wants you to visit Aviana for him~" he smiled.
"Why didn't he do it by himself?" she asked.
"He made a promise with Aviana that he'll not look for her, not anymore" he said.
"Really? What a stupid promise" Melinda pouted her mouth.
"So, do you want to visit her or not?" Liam gives her a slice of apple.
"Actually, I wanted to visit her today but since Haven also wants me to send his regards, maybe I'll play along" she kissed her husband's cheek.
"Want me to send you?" he asked, giggling.
"Nope! I can drive, we need only ladies conversation~" she said and walked away with Liam waving.
...
While on the way to the hospital, Melinda calls someone that might help her with these two lovebirds.
"I'm glad to help! I'll be there in a minute!" she said.
"Thank you Madam" Melinda parked her car at the hospital.
An eternity years later...(Jk)
Someone knocked Aviana's door.
"Come in!" she said.
"Hello~" Melinda smiled and Aviana giggled.
"Hello Miss Melinda" she greeted.
"Oh my god~ just call me Linda~" she sat down beside the bed.
"Okay...L-Linda...it's kinda awkward~" she smiled.
"You'll get used to it~" Melinda patted her hands and Aviana realized there's a ring on her finger.
"Y-you're married?" she tries to keep her smile.
"Yeah...I married Liam! He's my husband now~" she smirked in satisfaction.
"L-Liam? Mr. Liam Brody?" she asked and Melinda nodded happily.
"Yeah, he's my type and I swear he's so good!" she said.
"You're not getting married to Mr. Haven?" she asked and Melinda chuckled.
"Me? Haven? Impossible! He is younger than me, you know what? He is sometimes unreasonable, that's why he is more like my little brother than my boyfriend or anything special like that" Melinda explained.
"Ouh..." a smile appeared a bit at her corner of mouth and Melinda realized that.
Then, someone knocked again but this time Aviana recognised who was the one that entered.
"Madam Pie?!" she called in excitement that Melinda was shocked with the nickname.
"You remember me?"
"Of course I remember you! You used to make a good blueberry pie for me!" she said.
"Aviana, did you know who's her?" Melinda asked and giggled.
"Who?"
"She's Haven's mother, Madam Victor" Melinda shooked and giggled while looking at Aviana's cute shocked face.
"Ouh, so...you're Haven's mom..." she bowed her head.
"Why? You hate me after knowing the truth?" Madam Victor asked.
"What?! Of course not! You're still the greatest pie baker that I like!" she said in blush.
"I know that you silly girl~" she pinch her chubby cheeks.
"And I also know how you and Haven get along," she said.
"Y-you know?" Aviana clenched the blanket.
"Of course he cried very bad when knew about your fake news," she giggled.
"Why does he need to cry?" Aviana looked away.
"Don't you get darling? He loves you even though he said that he hates you...he is just like his dad, a big, big and even bigger ego but as a woman that they love, we need to know how to make their love fight that ego" she said.
"But how?"
"In a sweet way, you can do a sudden hug from the front, a kiss on the cheek and rub his hands," Melinda said.
"And if in a hard way, you just can just walk away and let him chase you, slap him hard in the face and walk away or you can try to threaten him with a knife" Madam Victor said and it makes Aviana stunned.
"Woah, I'll take those tips!" Melinda said.
"You used to slap Sir Victor?" Aviana asked.
"When Haven was still not born, I used to be a queen in the house but it doesn't mean that I didn't treat him as my king" she said and both of them just nodded.
"I think, maybe I'll reconsider that kind of step, it looks violence" Aviana smiled awkwardly.
Three of them talking happily without awkwardness between them.
"Actually, I don't want to lose him just like how I lost my parents and child..." she said.
Melinda and Madam Victor looked at each other.
"Aviana, you lose family and almost life, too but did you realize that love can replace it? Life of yours can't be saved if he didn't try to get back up again. Family, he can give you a family and be your family. The decision was in your hands Aviana. Don't be afraid of losing cause he'll always chase you from behind and say the same words many times even if he needs to waste his treasure or tears" Melinda said.
"I know Haven and he sees something in you. The moment when he showed us your picture, he felt hopeless to see you're not in his arms" Madam Victor supported.
"But what if it's just the same things over and over again?" Aviana asked with her bitter smile.
"Then you should know that we are behind your back, always leading you..." Madam Victor holds Aviana's hands.
3 of them talked about it as Aviana rethinking about her decision. What is love? Why did she push him aside? Can he change to someone better? Could he be more understanding if she gave him a second chance?
...
"Here!" Melinda throws a recorder at Haven's desk.
"What is this?" he asked.
"A reason why you should appreciate Aviana! Study about it, you asshole!" Melinda turned around and walked out by slamming the door.
Haven was shocked but wasn't surprised as he knew how her behaviour was.
He played it and was shocked to hear. Afraid of losing? Haven clenched the recorder. She thought that because of herself, she'll lose him.
"I'll protect you, that's what I promise you with my own life..."
The next day, Haven got his jacket and went out.
Meanwhile Aviana tried to stand up and felt a bit dizzy but she tried to get some fresh air on the balcony. As she tried to lean back at the balcony, her body felt too light and her mind went blurred.
She almost fell before hearing someone yell her name.
"AVIANA!!!" Haven ran towards the balcony and caught her hand. She was half-conscious but saw his hand bleeding as it flowed to her hand.
"H-Haven...?" her sightseeing became blank entirely.
"L-let me p-pull you!" He tried to pull her but she was unconscious and put more weight on her body.
The nurses and doctors try to help and they even try to call the firefighter but luckily he managed to pull him and she fell on his body.
He panted and put her on the bed. The doctors checked Aviana's condition.
"Sir, your wound needs to be treated first..." said the nurse and Haven just nodded.
...
A few hours after that, Aviana opened her eyes and was surprised to see Haven sitting at the sofa, sleeping, crossing his arms that were wrapped by bandages.
It was 9 in the night and it was quite dark outside.
"What happened?" she asked herself and remembered that she almost fell from the balcony but Haven caught her in time.
"He's hurt because of me..." she sighed then felt a bit cold in that room.
"Was the heater broken?" she said, to try to walk and wobble.
When Aviana was about to reach the doorknob, someone grabbed her hand and it gave her a fast reflection. Aviana try to punch a person's face until she realised it was Haven.
"Where do you want to go?" he asked coldly while rubbing his eyes.
"T-the room heater didn't working..." she said and Haven frowned.
"It works, I can feel the heat..." he said and Aviana got weird.
"B-but-" Haven cut her words by lifting her in a bridal style and put her on his lap while he was sitting on the sofa.
"W-what are you doing?!"
"Warming you...you too cold like an ice cube" he said and hugged Aviana.
Her head was on his chest and clearly heard his heartbeat rushing as her.
Not gonna lie, his body was very warm and she didn't want to move away from it.
"Are you okay?" she tries to get rid of the awkwardness.
"What do you mean?"
"I mean your hand, it's bandaging, doesn't it hurt?" she asked in a trembling voice.
Aviana felt hurt at her chest, her lips were slightly trembling and her eyes were already teary.
"Why am I crying?!" her heart whispered.
"I'm fine~ how about you? Are you okay?" her heart broke into pieces by hear of what he just said, how she can tell him that she was missing him very much, can't even stop thinking how warm him to her cold life.
Haven heard she's sobbing and kissing her forehead.
"I'm sorry again…it's actually hurt to see your tears fall just because of me, I'm a jerk" he said in a gentle voice.
"Y-you a-are!" she hit her chest while sobbing and let out her tears.
"You disappear when I need you, hate me while I'm starting to love you!" she hit again.
"I know, I'm sorry, so sorry…" he can't hold his tears this time.
"You even left me like I'm nothing!!" she said and finally stopped.
"Because of me, we lost our child…" he said and Aviana looked at Haven, eyes met eyes.
"That's not your fault…it's just we who can't be good parents," she said.
"If like that, let's try again, be a good parents and also partner" their foreheads touched.
"If you promise to be by my side and trust me in every situation…" she said, holding his hands.
"I promise, not only with my words, I'll give you my life if I lie," he said, closing the grip of their hands.
