Fear Aida

Fear Aida
Demand of Simon Dalton



After letting Aida cry in my arms for a while, she fell asleep on a sofa that was available in Mr. Simon's study. Me, Rachel, and Dr. Robert gathered in a separate room that was still a unit of Mr. Simon's office, but for a long time we were still silent in each other's minds. The terrible events that befell us left us in shock and trauma, especially for Rachel who I'm sure she never imagined such an event would happen to her.


Doctor Robert is one of the people who makes me most suspicious right now, although I saw the look of a face that seemed to harbor fear from him but the fact that his office in the witness and victim protection building was untouched made me ask questions. "How is it possible when almost all the rooms are hit by gunfire, only Robert's room looks good?" I asked in my heart, I was daydreaming at that time but my eyes were fixed on Doctor Robert.


"Ehem... Then what will we do in the future? I'm confused how after something like this happens to me, of course I can't work normally right?" rachel's chirping broke the silence between us, and I turned my eyes to look at her.


Rachel's dedication is indeed so high, even this very terrible event did not dampen her intention to continue to carry on her duties. Rachel seemed not to think if something similar would happen to her again, but Rachel's words were true because the damage to the building was very severe.


"Well, the building suffered severe damage. I will immediately ask for funds to the prime minister and the council to repair the building, it will certainly cost a lot of funds and also time. But I'm sure everything will be fine" replied Robert


"Do I still have to do regular absences, doctor? if not, maybe I can apply for leave" said Rachel


"I'm sorry, I can't give you leave permission" doctor Robert replied with a sigh


Being between two people talking to each other made me only be quiet while occasionally listening to the chatter between Rachel and Doctor Robert because we were in the same room. I was silent with many questions that disturbed my calm, since the arrival of Aida the life I lived became full of mystery. I want to solve everything well soon so that this terrible event is over.


"Why? what else can I do at a time like this?" rachel's voice sounded again with a tone that was so disappointed in Doctor Robert's answer, I can understand why he was disappointed but on the other hand I understand why Robert's doctor refused a leave application from Rachel.


"We still don't know how many of our doctors and patients have survived, at least give me more time to make a decision on your leave application" Dr. Robert replied


"Well, at least we know that there are three doctors here for a while." with a sigh Rachel said, no sooner did Robert's doctor stand up from his seat than walked up to a table and looked for something in a bag on the table.


"Your words remind me of something" as he reached into Robert's bag of words, I scrunched my forehead and kept staring at Robert's doctor.


Not long after the object sought by doctor Robert managed to find after a long time looking for, I saw him turn around and walk over to me while carrying an access card in his right hand. Doctor Robert gave me the access card, when I received it I just found out if it was my medical clearance card and indirectly I was declared to pass the test. "Is he kidding?" I asked in my heart, I felt a little angry at that moment.


After learning about my test results accidentally in Robert's office, I was angry about the results. As if Doctor Robert had deliberately given me a bad judgment so that Aida and I could be separated, I knew that was what was going on. I don't deny the fact that I sometimes feel a little crazy about what has happened to me lately, my emotions are sometimes uncontrollable at certain times. But I'm still conscious and able to maintain my sanity, I'm still a psychiatric doctor. Shouldn't this access card not be obtained if the results of the test I underwent many failures? Then what did Doctor Robert mean to give me this card? Am I faced with something I have to solve for myself?


"Doctor Lee, it shouldn't be like this new doctor's welcome ceremony but you know it's not good to have a proper welcoming ceremony. So I hope you can accept this with a free chest, welcome to join us" Robert told me after I received an access card that became my official identity as a doctor


The look on Doctor Robert's face at the time seemed to have no problem whatsoever with my acceptance back as a psychiatric doctor, even the sentence he said was so calm and reassuring it made it seem as if the test result I saw was a mistake.


"What is this, Doctor Robert?" I just pressed it a little, I continued to stare at the access card with a pseudonym, a photo of myself, and also the parent number.


"That's a medical card at the shelter, did you forget?" timpal Rachel, I laughed cynically at Rachel's words back then.


I don't know what Rachel and Doctor Robert think of me acting weird, I'm sure they were astonished by the expression I showed but I didn't care because I was tired of being in an enigmatic environment.


"Am I really accepted? what the hell is going on? aren't you wrong, Doctor Robert?" I asked after I was satisfied to laugh, I also looked at the face of Doctor Robert who looked confused.


"What... did you say, Doctor Lee?" it sounded like doctor Robert was confused when he said it


"It's bullshit!!" I snapped while throwing the access card on the floor, I stood up and faced Doctor Robert.


"Andrews!! I'm warning you to stop whatever you're thinking right now!!" Rachel yelled at me again, she stood up and stopped me from getting close to Dr. Robert.


I keep staring at Doctor Robert's eyes sharply, angry? of course, there was no reason for me not to be angry at him. I'm sure something's not going according to Robert's current plan so I should be declared a pass, probably because Aida's still survived this far.


If I get rid of this time, I'm sure these criminals will think that I'm going to take Aida away and they'll have trouble tracking her back. So as to hold Aida not far away from their surveillance, my plan of removal must be temporarily postponed. But what a pity, I've been able to read all their rotten plans. Doctor Robert is one of the pawns of this chain of crimes, I must uncover the secrets starting from him.


"Doctor Lee... What is this?" ask Dr. Robert


I removed Rachel by pushing her to my right and then immediately hit Doctor Robert's face hard, she fell on the floor. Not stopping there, I hit her cheek and face again several times until she bled - blood.


Kalap, at that time I really controlled my anger at him. I didn't even care about my surroundings anymore until a force so strong pulled me that I was sitting on Doctor Robert's body so that I could beat him in a tube, tubi, I was pulled away from Doctor Robert who was lying on the floor and held my body so I could not get back near Doctor Robert. Only then did I realize that some police were pulling and holding me back at that time, but it didn't make me slack to throw my fist back at him.


"Andrews!! stop stupidity!!!" mister Simon snapped at that moment, a flash of my anger subsided hearing that heavy and authoritative sound.


I turned to look for the source of the voice, Mr. Simon standing at the entrance of his study. He looked at me with a look of sadness, I don't know why he looked at me like that. I thought he would show anger because I had ruffled his study, but there was no anger at the time but a look full of sadness. "Whatis that? why is he looking at me like that?" I asked in my heart, my mind raved.


"You guys, take Robert's doctor for treatment" orders Mr. Simon on two of his men standing right behind


Without much questioning, the two walked up to Robert's doctor and took him out of the room. After the door closed, I heard the sound of Mr. Simon's breath so heavy. He walked up to me, who was still being held by two policemen, and loudly, Mr. Simon slapped me when we were close.


"Are you aware of your madness?" asked Mr. Simon, I could only be silent with a gaze that still felt yellow - a firefly.


"What's really going on here?" ask her again while walking closer to Rachel


"A. I don't know.he suddenly he was angry and attacked Doctor Robert just like that without giving any reason" replied Rachel heard him talking while crying.


"Andrews, sit down" master Simon told me


"But.." I'm not done yet saying, Mr. Simon cut in with a snap.


"Sit down!!" so loud was his voice that it echoed in the room


For some reason this body felt helpless, without me realizing my body was walking itself towards a sofa when the two policemen who had been holding my body since earlier removed his hand from me. When I sat down, my head felt down on its own and I did not dare to look directly into Mr. Simon's eyes. I was like a teenage boy who would be scolded by his father after making a mistake, my heart skipped a beat after hearing Mr. Simon's snapping at me.


Not long I felt Mr. Simon sitting in front of me separated by a small table, my eyes could see Mr. Simon's shoes on the floor and on the table I saw Mr. Simon throw my access card. I really did not have the slightest courage to look him in the eye, I could only continue staring at the access card without doing anything.


"It looks like this old cop's instinct is still very strong, I can tell the motive of your anger... Andrews, I'm the one who asked Robert's doctor to give you that access card and pass you even if you don't have the competence to do it" Simon said
