Sky's POV

I sigh while rubbing my eyes as I try to focus on the screen where the presentation is going on. I've been stuck in this meeting for more than an hour already and I'm feeling so tired and sleepy. This project is draining me but I can't lose this. It's one of the prestigious collaboration with a top company from foreign. It's a great opportunity for us to expand our business internationally. That's why I'm holding onto it even though it's exhausting me, not just physically but mentally as well. I've been so busy this past month, I have to come to office early and I'll be the last person to leave. I'm not getting time to spend with Eco. I miss him so much and spending time with him. We're also talking rarely because of my tight schedule. Among all these draining things, one good news is that today will be the last day of working on this project. With this presentation, the project will come to an end and then I'll be free. I'm gonna take a leave for a week and be with Eco.

"Sky?" I snap out of thoughts when I hear my name, "the presentation is done."

I look at the screen to read the end of it and turn to the lady immediately. She's the project manager from the client's side and has been taking care of everything with me from the beginning.

"Yeah." I give her my regards as it's done, "I'm happy to work with your company and believe it's going to bring us something good. I hope our products reach the expectations of the customers and that we'll collaborate again. Tell my regards to your CEO. Thank you." she nods at me with a smile.

I almost get ready to get up when suddenly the door gets open and since the room is dark I can't see who it is. When the lights gets on, I see Eco standing there. I look at him confused but stand up and approache him.

"Baby, what are you doing here?" I ask him while standing in front of him.

"Why? Can't I come?" He resorts back.

"Of course you can." I reply, "is anything important and urgent?" I'm worried if anything is wrong with him. He never once came to my office in search of me.

"You won't talk if it's not urgent?" He queries, he sounds angry.

"I will but I just need a minute to send her off." I whisper about the lady to him, "can you wait a minute?"

"Oh! Yeah, I can. I've been waiting for an hour. I can surely wait for more." He says sarcastically and gives a look to the lady behind me before looking back at me, "I'll wait while you enjoy your time with her."

"What? Baby, what are you saying?" I call out confused. What is he talking?

"I know everything. I know you're cheating on me." His eyes fill with tears before they start falling off slowly, "break up! We'll divorce."

He yells and turns around as he storms out of the room. For a minute I lost the track of what just happened? Cheating? Break up? Divorce? What is he thinking and talking? Is he thinking I'm cheating on him? But why will I do that?

Shaking my head of thoughts, I leave the room and run behind him, leaving the lady over there. But by the time I come out, he's already gone. I get in my car and head home as I know that's where he'll be going. I drive fastly, not paying attention to any signals and reach home. Going in, I see mom in the living room.

"Mama, is Eco home?" I ask him for confirmation.

"Yeah, he just came home running. He's crying. What happened, Sky? You hurt him?" Mom questions me worried.

"No, mama. He's just imagining things. I don't know what's going on in his head." I mumble as I walk on the stairs.

When I reach our room, I see him at the closet. He's pulling out his clothes and putting them all in a bag. He's crying constantly and his tears won't stop falling. He keeps wiping them off but they're endless.

"Baby, what happened? What are you doing?" I walk to him and ask him.

"I'm leaving." He answers me and tries to walk away while pulling his bag when I stop him by holding his wrist.

"Why?" I question.

"Because you're cheating on me." He wails out.

"Are you crazy? I'm not cheating on you. Why would I do that anyway?" I call out loudly, at this point I'm also shouting.

"Yes, you are!" He insists and cries out loud.

"Eco," I call his name and before I could speak more he interrupts me.

"Oh, I'm Eco now. I'm not your baby anymore." He whines.

"You are!" I sigh and exhale heavily, I let go of his wrist, instead hold both of his shoulders and moves closer to him, "baby, tell me what made you think I'm cheating on you."

"You're spending time with some lady. I was there to meet you but you made me wait instead chose her. I know you're cheating. I don't want to be here anymore." He reasons out, a very stupid and senseless I must say.

"You're misunderstanding. It's just a meeting. And why will I cheat on you?" I question him angrily, I hate the fact that I'm getting blamed of cheating when I'm not.

"Because I can't give you a child." He screams while pushing my hands off his shoulders.

He falls down, his body loosing it's balance and shaking as he's crying so much. It hurts, for Eco and for myself. For Eco because he thinks there's something wrong with him because he still can't get pregnant after our decision to have a child. I keep telling him that it's fine but somehow it strongly made a impact in his mind. For me because I can't see him in pain and hurt all the time and either blaming himself or blaming me.

My eyes sting as tears pool in them as I watch him. He looks so vulnerable and sad. I inhale, wipe my tears and sit down in front of him. He covered his face with this hands, I grab them and pull them down to see his face.

"Baby," I call him out gently which earns even louder sobs.

This is too painful. Why is he blaming himself for something that's not in his hands? Why is he bringing such an emotional damage to himself?

I let go of his hands and rather pull him into a hug. He fights, wanting to get away from me but I hold him tight.

"Baby, stop crying. Look at me." I hold his face with one of my hand and make me look at me, "I already told you it's fine if we can't have a baby. We have other alternatives."

"Then why are you cheating on me?" He cries out.

"I'm not. I promise I'm not cheating on you. Tell me if I ever did anything to make you feel that I'll cheat on you. Eco, I'm not such a person. I've always been surrounded by so many people, either boys or girls who were always hitting on me but I never paid a single second of attention to anyone. I didn't even mingle with you even after marriage and took me so much of time to get close to you. But you changed me, you made love you and made me think of spending my whole life with you. I'm happy with you, Eco. I don't need anyone but you, you're all I want. I love you, I really do. Please don't say I'm cheating on you or that you'll divorce me, it pains me. I can't tolerate that." Even just thinking about life without him sounds so painful now.

At my words, he couldn't reply anything. He slowly holds me back in a tight hug and continues to cry. His cries resonates the whole room and I try my best not to become the same as him. I keep myself in control and try to console him. It takes time but slowly his loud sobs turns down and he becomes quite. He let of my shoulders and his head keeps slipping off.

"Eco?" I call him as I hold his neck to look at him.

It shocks me when I see him passed out. He's staying unconscious in my hands. His face looks pale and his body goes cold. Panic arises so I get up with him and carry him downstairs. Walking down the stairs, I see mom and dad who looks worried. Hearing my heavy footsteps, mom looks up at me immediately and stands up while walking to me.

"What happened to Eco?" Mom asks me with worry.

"He fainted, mama. I'm taking him to the hospital." I answer him.

"We're coming too." They follow me as we go to the hospital.

He's ruining his health by thinking of babies all the time. During the whole drive to hospital, I just think of him. I just pray for Eco to be safe.
