Attachment and need is love .....

Cardiac arrest is a sudden loss of blood flow resulting from the failure of the heart to pump effectively. Looking at his grandson leaving the house Daniel suddenly collapsed and when Elizabeth tried to wake him up she can no longer feel his pulse, "Daniel?! Daniel!? Daniel?! Amor your father is not waking up!!!!!"

Amor rushed to her father's side and she can no longer feel him breathing, "Pa!? Ma, call an ambulance right away!!!!"

A few minutes later, the ambulance arrived and Daniel was rushed to the Emergency Room. Amor didn't let her mother come to the hospital with her since no one is left with the children. After about an hour the doctor came out of the Emergency Room and looked for Amor, "Excuse me, ma'am, are you the patient's family?" the doctor asked.

"I am his daughter Amor..... Amor Valencia."

"I am Dr. dela Cruz, I'm sorry but your father was already dead when he arrived here although we tried to revive him it was already too late."

Amor was shocked to hear the news and she felt unreal, "That can't be true doc, my father just lost his consciousness."

"Is there anyone I can call for you? Would you like some chairs and time alone for a few minutes?"

Amor felt pain and distress following the doctor's news and thinking of how to deliver the news to her mother overwhelmed her and she became frightened of what her reaction will be. Her phone suddenly rang and looking at the caller ID, the call is coming from Elizabeth she then immediately answered the call. "Hello ma, sorry I totally forgot to give you any update."

"How is your father?" asked Elizabeth.

"Ma, I know how much you loved papa but.....," Amor can't seem to finish her words.

"But what Amor?!"

"I can't imagine what this must be like for you ma but papa..... but papa....."

"What happened to your father Amor!?"

"Papa didn't make it ma, I'm sorry....."

Life felt like it's been turned upside down for Elizabeth after hearing from Amor that Daniel has died, "Why?! What happened to your father!?"

"The doctor said it was a sudden cardiac arrest," long-withheld tears have now been freely released and are dancing on her cheeks.

"No, I don't believe it. I'll go there now, wait for me."

When Elizabeth arrived in the Emergency Room Daniel was already wrapped in a cloth and the nurses only showed his face for her to identify him, "Daniel why did you leave me so soon?!" her words have now turned into cries.

"I'm really sorry ma," without minding the people around her, Amor can no longer stay afloat in the shallow water and allowed her tears to fill up the bucket she is in right now.

Elizabeth and Amor watched as the nurses brought Daniel to the morgue, "Why did this happen to us, Amor!? What are we supposed to do now that your father is gone?!" For what seemed like an eternity, they just sat there until their eyes dried themselves.

The doctor already issued a Medical Certificate of the cause of death. Daniel was kept in the hospital mortuary until they have arranged for their chosen funeral director to collect him. Amor processed Daniel's death registration and also arranged the funeral.

After the funeral, her grieving children asked her, "What happens next ma? What's ahead in the near future for us?" asked Olivia.

"We'll take it one step a time and make sure that we are here for your grandmother."

"I guess I need to be here for a long time, I'll tell Mr. Kim about what happened and retract his offer," she told herself and took her personal phone and dialed Mr. Kim's number. After a few rings, someone answered on the other line.

"Hello, Mr. Kim?"

"Hello, Amor?"

"Yes, it's me."

"You called."

"Ah..... I called to let you know I may no longer continue to accept the offer, Mr. Kim. My father just died so I need to take care of my mother for a while and Henry has run away from home and I haven't even started looking for him."

"My condolences to you and your family Amor, are you all right?"

Looking around her surroundings for any sign of Do Yun she was unable to answer right away, "Is he here? Of course not he's in South Korea," she thought.

"Amor....."

"Oh..... Mr. Kim where are you?"

"At home, where else can I be? You haven't answered my question."

"Uhm..... I'm not fine but I'll be okay don't worry about me," Amor hurriedly wiped the tears from her face as if Do Yun can see her crying.

"Why did you ask where I am?"

"Ah..... I thought..... I thought maybe you're back here."

"You can always come back to work whenever you're ready and I hope everything will be fine with you and your family."

"Oh..... thank you Mr. Kim and yes everything will be fine and don't worry I'll let you know when I'll be ready to report to work, I'll hang up now bye," before Do Yun can respond Amor ended the call because the words have now turned into cries.

Do Yun felt sorry for Amor and he felt bad that he is not able to do anything for her since he is away thus he thought of visiting her once he is back in Cebu in a few days. He thought of Chaewon when he remembered about Henry and decided to tell her about it before they leave for Cebu. Do Yun then called for Chaewon in his den so they can talk.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

Chaewon opened the door of his father's den and called his attention, "Abeoji? (Father?)"

"Chaewon-i deul-eowa. (Chaewon come in.)"

"Dangsin-eun naleul bulleo. (You called for me.)"

"Ye, meonjeo anj-a (Yes, sit down first)," and Chaewon sat beside him on a couch. "Ms. Amorga jean-eul geojeolhadolog jeonhwa. (Ms. Amor called to decline the offer)."

"Hajiman wae abeoji? (But why father?)"

"Ms. Amorui abeojiga bang-geum dol-aga syeossgo geunyeoneun eomeoniwa janyeoleul dolbogo sip-eohabnida. (Ms. Amor's father just died and she wants to take care of her mother and also her children.)"

"Ms. Amorwa Henryegedo maeu seulpeoss-eul geos-ibnida. (It must have been very sad for Ms. Amor and also to Henry)."

"Eum ..... Ms. Amorneun Henrydo jib-eseo domang chyeossdago malhaessseubnida. (Uhm..... Ms. Amor told me Henry run away from home also)."

"A ..... geuleonde wae Henliga jib-eseo domang chilkkayo? (Ah..... but why will Henry run away from home father?)"

"O ..... jal moleugessjiman, geunyeoui abeojiui jug-eum-i imi geunyeoege eolyeobdaneun geos-eul algo issgi ttaemun-e naneun Ms. Amorege geugeos-e daehae mudji anh-assseubnida. (Oh..... that I do not know, I did not ask Ms. Amor about it because I know her father's death is already difficult for her.) Uli hoesaui aedoleul deohagi wihae Sebue dochaghamyeon geunyeoui gajog-eul bangmun hal gyehoeg-ibnida. (I even plan to visit her family when we arrive in Cebu to extend our company's condolences.)"

"Eum ..... abeojiwa gat-i gado doelkkayo? (Uhm..... father can I go with you?)"

"Wae nawa hamkke gago sip-eo? (Why do you want to come with me?)"

"A ..... naneun hangsang Henliui gohyang-eul bangmunhago sip-eossgo dangsin-i geogie gal geos-imeulo geudeul-ui jib-eul bangmunhaneun geos-i joh-eul geos-ibnida. (Ah..... I have always wanted to visit Henry's hometown and since you are going there might as well visit their place.) Uliga geogi gamyeon Henliga dol-aol ji nuga al gess-eo? (Who knows maybe Henry will be back when we go there?)"

"Al gess-eo ..... geulae nalang gat-i gado dwae. (I see..... yes you can come with me.)"

"Abeoji gamsahabnida (Thank you father)," and Chaewon gave Do Yun a hug.
