Chapter 4. Taking Mom To The Hospital

"Why? Why, did you leave me so soon, Mom? I can't stand it, Mom! I can't afford it!" Mom's screams, which are getting more and more santar sounding.

I got up and ran out of my room. The sound of shard shards was heard now. My heart was getting worse when I opened the door to her room.

I looked at the mother who was on her knees, and held her head with both hands. Looking at his extremely messy room, and the many shards of shard scattered around him.

"Mother!" I shouted, in wonder. Slowly, I approached her..

"What's up, ma'am? Why is everything so messy like this?" mine, slowly. While helping him stand up.

"You! You killed my husband! Wh why? What's my husband's fault? Wicked, you!" shouted mother, which made me instantly confused.

A moment later, she was seen laughing, and yelling again, even pushing me. I'm really scared.

"What really happened to Mom?" Again, only that question always pops into my head.

I cried again, staring at my face. I also tried to get closer to my mother. I'm still wondering what happened to him. Slowly, I touched his shoulder. But this time there was no reaction from him.

This heart was no longer able to endure the crying, when I saw the blank look in my eyes. I thought, "Does Mom have a mental disorder? What is it like, the state of the person whose soul is being shaken?" my thinking.

"Ah, no way! I know, a strong woman's mother. No way, if it's just because you left, you're crazy!" I continued, refuting what was on my mind at the time.

However, seeing and paying attention to what was happening with mom at this time, made me even more afraid. Afraid, if what I think of mom, turns out to be true.

I also hugged my mother's body. And, mother really did not return my embrace back then. He only looked dreamy, with a blank look, and a face that looked sad.

The crying broke even more, when I saw mother's strange demeanor. He pushed me back, and ran to get a roll, which was on his bed.

He then sat down, with his legs bent and his hands hugging the bolster. Her tears are starting to drip. However, there was not a word I heard from his mouth.

I rushed out of the house to ask one of my neighbors for help. Fortunately, he wanted to help me, to be sad to see the condition of mother.

"Ra! How was it that at first, until your mother could be like this now?" ask Aunt Rina, a little worried.

"Nadhira doesn't know, Auntie. Before, mom was fine. And, mother also still had time to tell Nadhira to clean up. Because he said, we'll move out of this house soon. Finally, Nadhira shouts mom. And, when Nadhira entered her room, Nadhira had seen the strange attitude of mother, also her room was a mess like this." My answer, which as much as possible explains to Aunt Rina.

"Tante can't do anything, Ra. What's more, look at the condition of your mother like this. It's good, we talk to Mr. Rt first, Ra. Who knows, he can help us to ensure the current condition of your mother. Maybe he could call a doctor or something. If Auntie takes the attitude, fear Aunt is wrong, Ra." said Aunt Rina, making my heart even more unreasonable.

I could only nod my head, asking Aunt Rina for help, to help me talk about my mother's condition to Mr. Rt.

Aunt Rina also agreed to the request for help that I made to her. Meanwhile, Aunt Rina then rushed to go to Mr. Rt's house, I still accompanied the mother, who still looked down on her sadness.

Until finally, shortly thereafter Aunt Rina was back, with Mr. RT and also some residents who also helped ensure the condition of the mother.

"Neng, I'm sorry about earlier. Would there be any relatives or relatives to contact? Let me and also the citizens do no wrong for fear of thinking later we will just take a decision," said Mr. Rt, making me a little confused.

"Nothing, sir. My mother has no one. My father is also alone, there are no brothers or other families, other than me, sir." I said, making Mr. Rt look a little confused and maybe feel sorry for me.

"Patience, neng. What if we take your mother to check her psyche? Sorry if previously possible, Neng Nadhira was offended. But, this was for the good of her mother Neng Nadhira as well." He said again, making me actually not accept. But, looking at the condition of the mother, maybe it is good for the mother to be examined to the experts.

But again, I feel heavy at the cost. I could only be bowed down, when Mr. Rt, Aunt Rina, and also some citizens were waiting for my answer.

"Not to worry, Ra. God willing, Auntie will help with the cost." Aunt Rina, who made me a little in disbelief, but felt so relieved.

"Yes, Neng. Just calm down. Neng Nadhira did not have to worry about the cost. Incidentally, we still have cash that is allocated if there are people who are sick or in distress." said Mr. Rt, who again makes me feel very relieved.

I also nodded and smiled widely, when I heard the words of Mr. Rt and also Aunt Rina. Meanwhile, Mr. Rt immediately rushed to prepare his car, to help take my mother to one of the nearest hospitals.

I also got ready and asked my mother to come out of her room. Luckily, this time my mother did not rebel at all, when I asked her to walk out of the room.

When we arrived at the hospital, my mother was checked. No one was allowed to come in with him, including me.

Me and the others were told to wait patiently, until a while later, the doctor who had examined the mother was seen coming out of her room.

The doctor called me, and suddenly asked me to come into his room. Maybe, because he knew that I was one of my mother's families.

"Please sit down, Deck!" the doctor said, smiling.

Actually, I'm very afraid of the explanation that the doctor who just checked my mother's condition will tell you. Meanwhile, I looked at the book that was still sitting next to me, blankly.

"How, doc?" ask me, who ventured to make sure my mother's condition.

"good. Look, deck. I can't be sure one hundred percent about Ms Tania's current condition and circumstances. However, I can only give advice, if it's good for Ms Tania to be taken to a psychiatrist first. Just to make sure he is in his current condition. Therefore, I will provide a referral letter to Ms. Tania, so that she can be immediately taken and examined by medical personnel who are experts in psychiatric examination." The doctor replied, making my mind more uncertain.

"So, is it true that my mother is mentally ill, doc?" askaku.

"Therefore, I gave a letter of reference so that Ms. Tania could get certainty about her current condition. Hopefully, nothing will interfere with his psyche." said the Doctor, who seemed reluctant to admit that my mother was really mentally ill.

"Good, Doc. Thank you very much." I said, standing up and leading my mother out of the room. The doctor smiled and tried to help us get out of the room.

After returning from the examination room, Mr. Rt and some of the waiting residents saw us walking towards them. So, they quickly moved and approached me.

"Where, Ra? What did the Doctor say?" asked Mr. RT so curious.

I was just speechless, giving her a referral letter wrapped in a white envelope.

"What is this, Ra?" tanyanya, again. This time it looks so confused.

"So, the doctor can't be sure what my mother's condition is, sir. He can only give a referral letter, so that the mother can be directly handled as an expert. But.." answered me, who hesitated to continue my words.

Apparently, my words just now were enough to make them a little confused and wondering. However, I was also embarrassed to be frank with them. Until I can just keep quiet and down.

"By!" call Mr. Rt, which makes me slightly raise my head.

"What's wrong? Frankly! Don't hesitate!" saying, again. Seraya patted my shoulder.

"No! It's all right, sir. Sa-me... I just don't want to bother you, and all the people who are here. Before, I was very grateful for the help of my father, and also these fathers. But I also don't know what else to do, sir. This treatment seems to be quite costly. So, for now I better take my mother to go back home first. Later, if indeed I already have my own costs, I may, sir, ask for help again to the Father, and the citizens of all?" I said, a little shy.

"Definitely! Of course you can, Ra. But, I hope, Nadhira and mother can be pleased to receive a little help from us, yes." said Mr. RT, while thrusting a long brown envelope."

"Here, what's this, sir?" my question, confusion.

"A little rezeky and help from the citizens. Maybe not much, but we hope with the money, your mother can get a little treatment" replied Mr. Rt, smiling.

"Oh my God, sir. Thanks very much. Nadhira really do not know, in what way, Nadhira repay the kindness of the father and the citizens of all. Thanks, Sir! Thanks!" my mouth, while not aware if my tears then just dripped.

Shortly after, we rushed back to go home. However, when on the way home, suddenly mother went back to rampage.

Eventually, the car we were driving stopped. Then, the mother forced to open the car door immediately. In the end, we also obeyed his wishes.

Mom was in a hurry waiting for me to open the car door, so when I managed to open it, she quickly went down and ran across the road. Until none of us can hold it. Right then, we intended to quickly catch up with Mother.

However,

"Brruuugg!"

The sound surprised us.
