Chapter 1 - The Beginning Of The Story

Tirana is the capital city of Albania. A beautiful city with a million natural beauties. However, behind all its beauty, the city holds a deep wound for a man named Jack Macario. A 30-year-old man who since childhood has tasted the bitterness of life, and until now Jack is still friends with sadness. Likewise today, destiny intends to take what Jack loves and cares for the most. 

Dert ... Deert. The loud ringing of the cell phone was barely audible by Jack, who was welding metal pillars in a building. From inside his trouser pocket the phone kept vibrating, but Jack was still serious about his work. Not long after, a 40-year-old man came out of a room and shouted for Jack from downstairs. The man is the foreman where Jack works named Paul. 

Jack … Jack!” Paul was still screaming for Jack. 

However, again Jack did not hear the call from the foreman. The loud thumping of construction tools at work overpowered Paul's screams. For a moment Paul intended to ask someone to call Jack for him, but everyone there was busy with their own work. So like it or not, the fat man went up to the 30th floor where Jack worked. With Paul's haste a bit up the stairs to get to the top floor, the large body made it difficult for him to get there quickly. 

"Why do you guys use elevators to transport goods!" Paul grumbled. Once Paul was upstairs, he paused to catch his breath. 

However, to Paul's surprise, he realized that Jack was clinging to a rope in order to be able to weld iron from the outside. 

"You're crazy Jack!" Paul looks annoyed to see Jack, "Why are you doing this to me? Do you want me to die with you?" Paul rushed to Jack. Paul's face looks worried after finding his men doing dangerous work. Jack often does work that is very difficult for others to do. 

The floor, which was still not completely tiled, made it difficult for Paul to walk. A building nearly 30 stories high is where Jack works. Jack has made his living all this time by working menial jobs in a building. The difficult economy and low education made Jack have to work hard to provide for himself and his wife. Plus he is now waiting for the arrival of a baby in the midst of his small family. Jack works hard to make his wife and children happy. 

Jack seemed to be focused on what he was doing, until he realized that someone had been shouting. Finally, Jack stopped doing his activities. 

"Jack, do you want to die in this place? Why are you hanging like that by a rope?" cursed Paul. The big man couldn't understand what Jack was doing. 

Jack then took off his face shield helmet with his body still leaning on the edge of the building, "What's wrong?" asked Jack. 

"Get down first, you scare me!" Paul waved his hand asking Jack to come down.

"Speak from here!" Jack shouted. 

"Come down fast, you're freaking me out with that rope!" Paul ordered. 

Jack gave in, "All right, Boss." Then Jack tried to get down from where he was hanging. First Jack loosened the rope around his waist, then he jumped up to come over to Paul. 

Seeing what Jack had just done made Paul more shudder in fear, "Are you out of your mind, where's your harness?" Said Paul.

Paul feels crazy dealing with Jack, but Paul likes men like Jack. Because Jack is an honest and hardworking man, although a little arrogant. 

Jack just smiled faintly when he heard the chatter from his boss, "Don't I look cool?" Jack joked to his boss. 

"Girls think you're cool, but I don't think so at all!" Paul felt very annoyed with the ridiculous behavior of the subordinates in front of him. 

"What's up calling me, Boss? I just finished my assignment." Jack pulled the rope and rolled it between his palms and elbows. For the girls Jack looks cool and sexy with the muscles that have been formed. However, the wound on his face always looked scary to anyone who looked at him. 

"Oh, yes. I forgot to tell you. Your father-in-law called me a while ago, he told me that your wife had just given birth, and they are all waiting for you at the hospital!" Paul told Jack what he had been meaning to say. 

Without thinking, Jack immediately gave the rope he was holding to Paul. "Is it true?" asked Jack uncertainly.

"Yes, of course! You think I have time to joke with you?" Paul felt a little annoyed at Jack's silliness. 

Then, without much more to say, Jack left, leaving Paul looking irritated, "I go first!" shouted Jack. 

However, before that Jack returned to Paul, "What else?" asked Paul feeling strange. 

"Please lend me your car, Boss." Jack smiled at his boss. 

Paul reached for his car keys from his trouser pocket, and give the key to jack. 

"Thank you." Jack quickly snatched the key from Paul's hand. 

"Hey, you!" Paul just realized that the key he was holding had changed hands. "Be careful on the road!" Paul shouted again reminding Jack. 

Jack's face looks so proud, a smile of happiness is always painted on his thin lips. Jack was overjoyed by the news he had heard from Paul the foreman. In the third year of marriage, Jack finally got this happy news. He really couldn't believe that God had given him happiness this time. 

Jack then hurried away from the building that was still visible in the form of a concrete frame. Because he couldn't wait to meet his wife and newborn baby, "What is this feeling, why am I feeling so happy? Is this what it feels like to be a father?" mumbled Jack along the way. In the car he borrowed from Paul, Jack rushed to the hospital. However, Jack doesn't know what is really going on at the hospital.
