Angie: What?

Fran: Mason has dengue fever?

Diego: That can't be good.

Fran: It isn't. Do you know how many people die from dengue fever?

German: But it is curable. Unlike Malaria which is more worse than dengue.

Angie: This is bad... How are we gonna tell this to Leon?

German: I'll tell him.

Fran: What? Don't you think that's a bad idea?!

Diego: Yeah, I mean Leon's probably gonna be so happy right now. If you tell him he's gonna get upset.

German: Then what do you expect me to do? Not tell him? He's the father.

Fran: Do you really think now is the best time to tell him? He's gonna tell Violetta and they're both gonna get so stressed. Today is supposed to be a joyful today for them.

German: Look guys, they are going to find out sooner or later. It's not like we can hide this news from him can we? Besides, the doctor asked me to tell Leon to get back to the hospital as soon as possible.

Fran: (Sighed) Great.. Here he comes.

Leon: (Came and smiled) Hey guys. You can come in if you want. Violetta is awake.

Angie: Already?

Leon: (Smiled) Yeah. She's quite strong this time.

Diego: How's the baby?

Leon: (Smiled) The most beautiful. We've already thought of a name but Violetta says she wants to be the one to tell you guys. So let's go. (Went)

Everyone: (Looked at each other)

German: Leon, wait.

Leon: (Stopped) What is it? Is something wrong?

German: There's uhm, something I have to tell you.

Leon: Could you tell me later? We really need to get in there. I'm so excited for you guys to meet her.

German: It's important.

Leon: Okay... what is it?

German: It's about Mason.

Leon: What about him?

German: He uh...

Leon: He what?

German: He... has dengue fever.

Leon: (Stunned) What?

German: Yeah uh.. The doctor called. He told me to tell you to go over there as soon as possible.

Leon: (Kept quiet)

German: Leon, I'm sorry that you had to hear this from me but I think you should really go there as soon as a possible.

Leon: That would mean I'd have to leave my newborn and Violetta again.

German: Leon, you have to do what's right. Violetta has gone through this before. She will be alright. Your son needs you.

Leon: (Nodded his head) I know. (Went back in)

Fran: Where's he going?

Diego: Probably to tell Vilu.

Vilu: (Saw Leon) Leon. Come here and look at her. She's smiling. She's so cute right? (Smiled)

Leon: (Held Vilu) Vilu, I have to go.
