Viona had to survive working as a nanny for Zevanya until she was able to find her personal belongings that Fernando kept in his big house. Fernado did not tell her where he kept it, for fear that Viona would run away when she found her mother's belongings.
Actually, what Viona really wanted to find was the savings book she kept along with a pile of her mother's photo albums because all the money was kept in that savings.
"I have to find the book immediately so I can continue my life after leaving here," Viona muttered to herself.
"What book are you looking for, Viona?" Asked Zevanya curiously.
"Ah, it's nothing, beautiful girl. Let's go, we are almost late," Viona replied nervously.
"Come on," shouted Zevanya cheerfully.
Today Zevanya school was doing an excursion to the Niagara Skywheel to enjoy the view of the incredible Niagara Falls. Because Fernando was busy, it was Viona who replaced him as Zevanya's companion. Viona wore an outfit with the matching color as the clothes worn by Zevanya.
When they arrived at the park around Niagara Skywheel, Zevanya was running around cheerfully with her friends. Viona never took her eyes off the little girl. Since the place was crowded, she had to do extra supervision.
"Come on, Viona. I want to ride the Niagara Skywheel," Zevanya whined repeatedly.
"I have Acrophobia, Ze," Viona said softly. Acrophobia was the fear of height. Viona had had Acrophobia since the incident at the orphanage where she fell from the second floor and broke her leg.
"But I want to go up, Viona... huaaaa," Zevanya suddenly burst into tears.
When she heard Zevanya cry, Viona panicked. She tried to calm the little girl down so they wouldn't cry, by promising her to ride the biggest Ferris wheel in Canada.
However, on the other hand, she was worried that she would not be able to control herself when she went upstairs. Viona finally gave in to follow Zevanya's wishes. Her face turned pale when she stepped her foot at the entrance to the Ferris wheel.
"Wait," said a man who suddenly came in when the cabin door was about to close.
"Daddy!!" Zevanya shouted happily.
Apparently, Fernando went to see Zevanya. He even asked Natasya, the secretary, to represent him for a meeting. With his handsome smile, Fernando entered the Ferris wheel cabin. He chose to sit next to Zevanya while Viona sat in front of him. The three of them looked like a happy little family.
Viona tried her best to fight her fear when she was high up inside the Ferris wheel. Cold sweat running down her pale face when the Ferris wheel cabin was at it's highest peak. She tried to look away and watch at the niagara waterfall that was clearly visible from above.
Fernando felt that something strange was happening to Viona. He slowly moved the seat next to Viona. The man then held Viona's hand tightly. He was surprised when he realized that there was no resistance from Viona as usual. Normally, the girl would always refused to be touched by him.
THUD
Suddenly Viona fell down. Fernando swiftly caught the girl's body so she wouldn't hit the Ferris cabin wall. He laid Viona's body on the bench and tried to revive her, while Zevanya looked very surprised to see Viona fainted.
"What happens to Viona, Daddy?" asked Zevanya sadly.
"She is just sleepy, Dear. She is asleep and will soon wake up," Fernando replied quietly, trying to calm Zevanya, who looked like she was about to cry.
"You just continue to watch the scenery. Okay, Honey?" Fernando added softly.
Zevanya nodded excitedly. She went back to admiring the scenic beauty of the Horseshoe and American Fall (part of Niagara Falls), Niagara River, and Niagara Park.
Fernando tried to wake Viona by tapping her cheek slowly, but Viona still didn't wake up. Feeling panicked, Fernando called his bodyguard who was waiting for him below to get an ambulance and ask the staff to stop the Ferris wheel so they could get off.
After knowing that someone fainted in the Ferris wheel cabin, the staff vacated the area to immediately receive the fainted patient. Shortly thereafter, the cabin that brought Fernando, Viona and Zevanya was seen.
The staff deftly took Viona's body, which was limp. They put oxygen mask on Viona to help her breathe. Fernando was carrying Zevanya's small body. The little girl looked confused when she saw Viona being carried by an ambulance.
The ambulance drove quickly to the hospital. Behind it was Fernando's cars. Zevanya kept asking the reason why Viona was taken by an ambulance which made Fernando feel even more nervous about Viona's condition.
Fernando ran to the emergency room where Viona was getting treatment. From behind the glass window, he could see several doctors were busy putting an IV needle in Viona's arm.
Twenty minutes later, the nurses and doctors who handled Viona came out, they said it they only needed to wait for Viona to wake up. When he heard the doctor's words, Fernando took a deep breath.
His eyes staring straight at the bed, where Viona was lying, still with her eyes closed.
"Why do you push yourself if you have a phobia of height?" Asked Fernando angrily at Viona, who was already conscious.
"I don't want to make Zeze sad," Viona replied softly.
"Silly girl, you'd endanger yourself and Zeze if I wasn't there," Fernando scolded her irritably.
"I'm sorry..." Viona sobbed.
"Don't cry. It's all over now. Soon, we can go home, and tonight you will sleep in my room," Fernando said without guilt.
"What!?" shrieked Viona in shock after hearing Fernando's words.
"Zeze was waiting for you in my room to fall asleep, the maid at home contacted me," Fernando explained.
"Oh...." Viona was silent and embarrassed because she had bad thoughts on Fernando. She slowly lowered her feet to the floor, assisted by a nurse, to sit in a wheelchair. The nurse pushed her toward the car in the hospital yard.
Fernando carried Viona into the car. It immediately drove away from the hospital to Fernando's house. In the car, Viona fell asleep, leaning against the window. Because Fernando could not bear to see her sleeping so uncomfortably, he finally moved Viona's head to his lap.
When they reach home, Fernando chose not to wake Viona. He slowly the girl's body into his house, to his room. When he opened the door, Fernando saw his little daughter was asleep on his bed, hugging her favorite doll, which Viona bought a while ago.
Fernando slowly lowered Viona down on the bed.
"Clean Miss Viona's body and change her clothes. Then, prepare food for me. I want to after taking a shower," Fernando ordered the four maids who were standing in front of his room.
The maids quickly entered the master's room, shortly after the boss entered the bathroom. They washed Viona's body with a wet towel then changed her clothes to a nightgown.
"Why is the master treating Viona so well? She is just a nanny," said a young maid in a whisper.
"Shut up. Master never considered Viona as a nanny," replied another maid.
"What about Miss Natasya?" Asked the young maid curiously.
"Stop talking already. If Master heard that, he could fire us. Let's just go. Our task is finished," whispered another maid.
The maids immediately left Fernando's room after hearing the sound of the shower stop, which indicated that Fernando had finished taking a shower. Sure enough, shortly after the maids left, the bathroom door
open, and Fernando appeared in his pajamas.
Fernando smiled when he saw that Viona's clothes had been changed. He canceled his dinner and approached the bed to join his daughter and Viona, who were soundly asleep.
"We'll be like this forever, Vio. Don't make me worry anymore," Fernando said softly as he hugged Viona from behind and then closed his eyes.
