"Flávia passed out, I think she couldn't handle the delivery! The doctor asked if she had high blood pressure!"
Adolfo approaches, "No, son! Flávia is young and healthy. That shouldn't have been the reason."
One of the nurses runs out of the room to call for help.
Josias feels some tightness in his heart. Uélton had already lost Natalia. Now is he going to lose Flavia? No, God, that would be too cruel for his best friend! Please don't let another tragedy befall the Freire family!
