Blessing Or Enmity

9.

At school Lia more often daydreaming, she could not focus on her lessons. Her little brain was busy thinking about the strange thing that happened in her house this morning. Okay, even though he feels he is not mentally healthy, but he does not go crazy and believe that his brother is still alive with him. He had also been medicated and had no signs of going mad, but today, he doubted his psyche once again. She knew this was crazy, but she wished her brother could accompany her even if it was just a shadow.

The clock came home from school, Lia quickly got up from her seat and ran first out of class after finishing greeting. He was in a hurry to go to his psychiatrist. It would be foolish for him to come without making an appointment first, this is an urgent situation and he would feel more and more insane if he did not consult his doctor.

In the taxi, Lia called her doctor. "Can I stop by? Just a minute is okay, even if you have to wait is also not a problem. This is important, please?!" lia said as soon as her phone connection was connected.

"I still have one patient now, Miss Nathalia" said the doctor from across the street.

"I can wait, even if I have to wait for a few hours!" reply Lia pleaded.

"Alright, but don't complain if you wait too long, yeah."

"Sure, I just got there. I closed Sulu and thank you!" Lia hung up her phone, she paid the taxi fare and went straight inside after saying her thanks. Lia waited patiently, she sat in the waiting room for some time.

"Boring, right?" ask the doctor while throwing a friendly smile as Lia enters her room.

"Little if you can be honest," Lia replied quickly.

The doctor smiled again. "Well, mind if I hear your complaints while enjoying a cup of tea?" ask the doctor.

"Honestly, I'm pretty tired now. It was going to be my break, in fact you came and .. well, that's it!" the doctor continued explaining.

"Please sit wherever you feel comfortable, miss." the doctor picked up the phone and spoke for a while after he invited Lia to sit as comfortable as the girl. Not long after, two cups of tea had been prepared.

"So, what's the urgent matter until you come instead of visiting, miss?" the doctor said, sipping his drink.

"Please drink, this tea is good for calming the mind, can also reduce excessive fatigue, he said, anyway."

"So, it seems like the drug you just prescribed has no effect on me. I feel like I'm getting crazy, I'm seeing strange things that I shouldn't have seen this morning!" clearly Lia elaborated on the contents of her mind. Lia breathed a sigh of relief, although it did not disappear but told her doctor enough to reduce the anxiety that had plagued her since this morning.

"And what is that?"

"I saw my brother's writing and it's new writing. Should I be locked up in a mental hospital, doc? Are my hallucinations getting worse? Though I have consulted and did some therapy so as not to affect my life, right?!"

"I understand what you're worried about, miss. But just calm down and tell me slowly, okay?!" Lia told me everything, from last night when she felt lonely, the scribbles she made for missing her family too much, and the reply from the graffiti she made that she saw just before she left for school. Not a single detail was missed, Lia told all as per her doctor's request.

"It seems that I have to make sure for myself whether it is just imagination or really happening, can I stop by for a while to your house, miss? ask the doctor. Lia nodded doubtfully, no one had ever visited her home after she had lived alone. Everyone is away, even their families. So Lia felt awkward to receive a guest, let alone an impromptu guest like now.

"Sorry if I look a little awkward, doc. It was hard for a long time that no one ever visited. I hope you understand!" the doctor nodded in understanding, he came not as a guest, but as a doctor.
