Alton's POV

As usual, I made my way to Solana's place, but when I arrived, her store was already closed. I furrowed my brow and pulled out my phone, dialing her number, but she didn't answer. Fear began to consume me, so I quickly returned to my car and drove towards her house.

It took several hours of driving, and by the time I arrived, it was already dark outside. My forehead creased in concern when I saw their belongings packed up in the living room. Atlas was sitting on the couch, so I walked over to him.

"Are you going somewhere, buddy?" I asked, trying to understand the situation.

"I don't know," he replied, sounding uncertain.

After a while, Solana emerged from her room, and when she saw me, the luggage she was holding slipped from her grasp and fell to the floor. I hurried over to her, gently guiding her back into her room so we could have a private conversation.

His face lit up with a smile as soon as he saw me."Good morning," he greeted warmly.Returning his smile, I walked over to him and stole a glimpse of what he was preparing."You should have woken me up. I should be the one cooking breakfast," I said."It's fine. I used to cook for you, remember?" he replied, bringing back fond memories of the times he stayed at my place, taking care of me.A little while later, Atlas, still in his pyjamas and rubbing his eyes, stumbled into the kitchen."Good morning, Love," I greeted, pulling him into a tight hug and planting a kiss on his cheek."Good morning, buddy," Alton greeted with a smile."Good morning Mommy. Good morning Daddy," he greeted back then climbed onto his chair. I helped him to ensure he won't fall.Once Alton finished cooking, he served the food on the table, and we

Once Atlas is asleep, we head to my room. Feeling sticky, I decided to take a quick shower. When I finished, I stepped out of the bathroom.Meanwhile, Alton also took a quick shower. As he emerged from the bathroom, a towel hung loosely around his waist. I immediately averted my gaze, feeling my cheeks flush.

"Please, tell me what's wrong with my son," she pleaded, her voice trembling.The doctor's face wore a grave expression. "Your son has severe refractory asthma," he began. "People with this condition often experience frequent and severe asthma attacks, struggling to breathe and feeling tightness in their chest. These attacks can be life-threatening if not properly managed."Solana's knees weakened as she heard the doctor's words. She swallowed hard and nodded, silently urging him to continue."I suggest bronchial thermoplasty as a treatment option. It involves using heat to reduce the muscle mass in the airways," the doctor explained. "Given the frequency and severity of your son's attacks, it's crucial to operate as soon as possible.
