Fugitive Woman

Paralyzed

Kalila listened carefully to the explanation of the doctor who handled Darian. While Darian can only observe him while lying on his bed. I don't know what they're talking about but Darian is really curious.

A few minutes later, Kalila and the doctor entered the room where Darian was being treated. Darian looked at the two with a curious face.

"What's up, honey?" Darian asked confusedly.

"We're going to the physiotherapy room, Ian. The doctor will examine your nerves and confirm your healing." Kalila replied with a gentle smile.

Darian nodded in agreement. With the help of two male nurses, Darian was successfully transferred to a wheelchair in one experiment. Kalila then asked the two nurses to let them push her wheelchair. The two nurses nodded and walked away from Kalila and Darian.

"How are you feeling today, Ian?" Kalila asked as she pushed Darian slowly.

"Come, Honey. I'm stuck in this wheelchair so I feel pretty bad. But ever since I was sick, you've been so indulgent to me that it feels like I'm starting to love my pain." Canda Darian on Kalila.

Kalila laughed crisply. A few minutes later they arrived at the physiotherapy room where the doctors would examine Darian's nerves. Especially the nerves in his lower body.

As soon as Kalila pushed Darian inside, Kalila was able to feel Darian's body instantly stiffening. The woman then walked in front of Darian and crouched down facing him. Kalila grabbed Darian by the hand and held him tightly. That hand feels so cold. Darian must be feeling very nervous.

"You scared, Ian?" Ask Kalila gently.

Darian nodded slowly.

"Don't be afraid, my dear Ian. All the doctors here will help you heal quickly. You have me here anyway, Ian." Persuade Kalila lovingly.

Darian looked at Kalila sincerely. It wasn't exactly the doctor Darian was afraid of. The fear is knowing the diagnosis given by the doctor. He was afraid to know what he was going through and whether he could recover or not.

The two nurses who had helped Kalila swiftly pushed Darian's wheelchair into one of the patient's beds. A doctor was waiting for him there. The young doctor was a physiotherapist who served on Darian. The young man smiled kindly at Darian.

"Good morning, Mr. Darian. How are you doing today?" Ask the doctor is friendly.

"Good, Doc. Please start the test immediately, Doc. I didn't stay here long." Darian answered nervously.

The young doctor laughed. He nodded and immediately carried out a series of tests on Darian. Not far from the two, Kalila stood up and watched him closely. He must know the Darian test results. Because the next plan is entirely dependent on Darian's condition.

Wish the worst be with you, Ian.

...****************...

The young doker invites Kalila to enter his room. Considering his countenance, there seemed to be something serious he had to talk about with Kalila. The woman leaned back and brought her face closer to Darian.

"Wait a minute, Ian. I need to talk to the doctor about your condition." Say soft Kalila.

Darian seemed to object to Kalila who would only be alone together with the young doctor. Darian is an acute jealous man. Anyone has admitted it. So it is natural that he never likes his woman close to the opposite sex other than himself.

"I'm not going to play with fire with him, dear Ian. You know full well that I'm only yours. Please don't be jealous, okay?" Pinta Kalila with pleading eyes.

Darian finally collapsed under those beautiful eyes. He nodded slowly and Kalila immediately hugged Darian tightly. Kalila stood up and entered the room. Inside the room, the young doctor had already sat down while reading Darian's report. His face looked very serious as his fingers were busy flipping back every page. No mistake, something must be wrong.

"Sorry doctor, does the doctor want to talk to me?" Ask Kalila politely.

The young doctor nodded. He then showed the report of Darian's test results to Kalila.

"This is a test from Mr. Darian, ma'am. We've done many tests ranging from palpation massage, EMG, and even lumbar function. But the results are really bad." The doctor was full of regrets.

"That's, Doc?"

The doctor then pointed to a row of columns in a table. It shows Darian's physical test score.

"Mom see Mr Darian's test results here? All results show zero. And you know what that means?" Ask the young doctor.

Kalila.

"Zero means there is absolutely no muscle contraction at the bottom of Mr. Darian, Mom. In other words, Mr. Darian is really experiencing permanent paralysis." The doctor said with a heavy heart.

Kalila doesn't believe that. He was so shocked that his mouth was open. Kalila covered her mouth with her other hand.

"Geez, how am I supposed to say this to Darian, Doc? Is there no chance for Darian to heal, Doc? Whatever it costs we're ready to pay, Doc." Kalila said really.

The doctor breathed slowly.

"While there is, the possibility is very small, ma'am. Because the main damage is in Mr. Darian's spine. And it takes a very long process, ma'am."

Darian looked at the listless looking Kalila in confusion. Right after Kalila came out of the doctor's room earlier, her expression looked uninspired. Her lover was just sitting and daydreaming near Darian.

"Darling, what's wrong? What did the doctor say?" Darian asked slowly while touching Kalila's hand.

As if jolted from her daydream, Kalila turned her head and smiled clumsily at Darian.

"Ah, it's okay, honey. I just have a lot of thoughts." Kalila is lying."

Darian clasped Kalila's hand and looked at her seriously.

"Tell me, what did the doctor really say? Why do you look so bad?"

Kalila sighed softly. Then her crying broke. The woman immediately hugged her bewildered lover.

"The doctor says you're experiencing permanent paralysis, Ian." Said Kalila while crying.

Darian gawking. It was like hearing lightning in broad daylight he knew that fact. The fact that maybe for the rest of his life he'll be in that fucking wheelchair. And all this was due to an accident that day.

Darian clenched his fists furiously. He completely blamed Hanna for all this. If Hanna hadn't acted like that, maybe this accident would never have happened. And Darian will still live like he was.

"Hanna.." hissed Darian.

Kalila then let go of her embrace and looked at Darian affectionately. He wiped his tears recklessly and both his hands cupped Darian's face looking dumbfounded.

"But the doctor said there's still hope, honey. You can still recover with routine therapy. We don't give up, yeah. Please?" Pinta Kalila is sincere.

Darian nodded slowly. His emotions were too high at the moment. If it wasn't for Kalila's tears, maybe Darian would've messed up this hospital. But the tears of her lover melted all her anger.

"I'll never leave you, Ian. No matter what your circumstances are." Said Kalila while hugging Darian.

Darian was very touched by the sincerity of his lover's love. But what he did not know was that behind his back, Kalila was smiling very widely. His heart soared in excitement as the game had just become more fun.

How does it feel to be helpless, dear Ian?
