Ansel was still kneeling before his mother. Grasping his fingers that felt increasingly thin and cold.
The woman's gaze led out the window, not to enjoy the scenery there. Ansel could see the blank look from both of his eyes.
"Mama, be patient. After my mission was successful, I must have taken Mama out of here. We're together again." After kissing the woman's fingers, Ansel looked back at the look on her mother's face that looked dreamy.
The sound of knocking on the door made Ansel take his eyes off the mother. The man left, as the nun, whose family believed in caring for the woman, carried a tray of water and a small bowl with some medicine in it.
"Sorry, Sir. It's time for Madam to take medicine" said Sister Monik, who helps her every day.
"Let me give." Ansel took a small bowl of medicine and also a glass of drinking water in his hand. The man bowed slightly to persuade his mother. "Mom took the medicine, yeah. Let the spit heal."
A few years ago, the mother who often locked herself in her room was declared depressed. When her father decided to send her to a mental institution, Ansel desperately refused.
Her mother is harmless, only occasionally seen crying without hurting herself or others. For that Ansel asked the papa so that his mother was treated at home only.
The father agreed, but Ansel had to follow whatever the man wanted. Including being exiled outside the country under the pretext of studying. He was also not introduced as a member of the family, while holding major events involving the company of the father.
And everyone only knows Bagaskara's descendants are only three brothers, not including himself.
Ansel still persuaded the mother to open her mouth. Not according to her, the woman actually pushed her hand until the glass she was holding broke. They seem surprised by it.
"Let me clean up, sir." The Monik Sister prevented Ansel from picking up the shards of glass under her mother's feet, immediately the woman rushed to pick up a broom and a washcloth not far from there.
"Mama." Ansel pulled out the wheelchair his mother had occupied. Kneel back to her knees before the woman who was still silent. Ansel didn't know what to say.
"Mistress's medicine stamps are up, sir. Doctor Nata hasn't sent you yet." The nurse said when Ansel asked for a new drug for his mother. Doctor Nata is the family doctor of the papa, Ansel is not too close to him.
"Give me a prescription for the cure." Ansel spoke without taking his eyes off the face of the mother who seemed to want to say something. Sometimes his lips were slightly open, but the look of the eyes was still difficult for him to read.
"Sorry, young master. The great lord forbid it." Fearfully, the woman said again.
Ansel frowned suspiciously. The woman before him raised her voice again.
"Say the great sir, let it be Doctor Nata's business."
Ansel was only a few months back home, seeing his mother no progress of course he felt suspicious. But for now he can't do anything.
"Suster," called Ansel who made the woman before him look up. "Please take care of my mom" he added.
The woman before him was momentarily stunned, but then nodded. "Well, young master," he said, sounding slightly trembling. But Ansel did not worry about it, he then stepped away from there.
While descending the stairs, Ansel meets Uncle Lim who seems to have just found out that he returned home, after several days of disappearing somewhere.
Uncle Lim is a special assistant hired to take care of Ansel's needs, the man even lived abroad when Ansel was ordered to study there. All of Bagaskara's sons had similar assistants who would help with his work.
"Why don't you ever come back, my God. I'm really worried about you." Uncle Lim, who was like family to the man, shook Ansel's shoulders and made sure his employer's son was okay. "Say, is your job done?"
Ansel shook his head, telling the forty-year-old that he was fine, Ansel gave a smile on his lips.
"In a moment, I'll be back soon." Ansel told of a favorable misunderstanding in the house, though it did not rule out the possibility that he was in danger.
"Don't do it if it's going to incriminate you" said Uncle Lim.
Ansel shook his head. "I have to do it."
Uncle Lim looked around, making sure no one else would listen to their conversation. He then told her a lot of information that he had obtained during the few days that the young man was not home. About his two brothers who got scolding from their papa.
Ansel was lucky to have a personal assistant like Uncle Lim, the man did not take sides with his papa. He often lies to protect himself. In the eyes of an Ansel, Uncle Lim was no ordinary assistant.
.
By noon and the streets of the capital are not a good combination for driving. Ansel hit the wheel again when stuck in traffic and had to stop.
Every now and then the young man glanced at the clock on his wrist. It was ten minutes late than he had promised to return to the girl. I don't know why he was so afraid of anything happening to Sena. What is like this is the feeling of a bodyguard who is assigned to keep someone fine. What a burden to him.
The class was empty when Ansel got to the door, the man then immediately looked for Sena who was definitely not far from there.
It is not difficult to find a Lasena Maura with a different hair color than most students there. Because it was only that girl that he knew in that place.
But not really, he is also familiar with the face of a young man named Bari who now pulls Sena and takes her away to the bottom of the stairs. Ansel approached him immediately.
"Gue said right, your business is the same I haven't finished yet, dear Sena." Bari put Sena's body against the wall, leaning her head to scare Sena who was throwing her face away and trying to push her chest.
Ansel snatched the back of the collar of the shirt Bari was wearing, making the man turn his head. Without warning, he then hit Bari's face until he fell on the floor.
Sena gave a surprised shriek, then turned to Ansel who still could not believe his appearance. Always on time and suddenly.
"As per your request. I've hit him, Miss." Ansel complained about his actions.
Sena patted her forehead with her palm, turned to Bari who had not yet stood up, then returned to her guard. "Lo what?"
The girl pulled Ansel's arm and took him away from there. If this commotion gets to the campus, they're definitely in trouble.
"I'm sorry I'm late." Ansel said regretfully, when they got to the car and he opened the door for nonanya.
Sena looked at him lazily. "Jude, I am okay. It was my fault, too" he said, then got in the car and sat in his chair.
Ansel closed the door, inexplicably preferring to hear the girl get angry. Because with this kind of silence, he felt even more guilty.
.
By nightfall, Ansel no longer saw Sena leave the room since they split up in the yard on their way home from college.
The young man was now standing on the balcony of Sena's room, just in case the girl ran away again through there.
"Askarra!"
The call made Ansel turn his gaze away from the artificial garden down there, turning to Sena who was standing next to him. "Why?"
"Gue there's something for you."
