The day came where Czar and I will separate again. Scion carried him while he's screaming and trying to hold me. I tried to stop the tears from my eyes because he doesn't want to stop. My family couldn't even do anything because they have no right.

"Mommy!" He keeps on stretching his hand out calling for me but all I can do is stand there while wiping the tears that I can no longer hold. I can feel mom and dad's hands over my back while sadly watching Czar from the closing window of the car.

"This is what I always feared that's why I kept you with me even when Czar was just a tiny fetus. It is difficult to be alone, my child. The hospital is far from that house!" Well, mother knows best. I still remember when we were in Neronia, the hospital was away from our house so when Kristine was born, it was just in the house and she nearly died. She knows the hardships and I trust her.
