‘EMPTY SPACE’ # 2

Happy reading my Bebi Bala - Bala all....

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Little Star Island, Isola, Italy,

“Your feelings, how empty?..”

It was Varen who asked Val, because he wanted to make sure what he was thinking.

“Ham-pa?..“

Val responded to Varen's words with a confused-looking facial expression.

“So you said your feelings were empty. What..“ Varen said again.

“Me-samely, earlier, Val said so yes?..“

“Kan, when you asked how you felt, then you answered, if your feelings are empty, then you are silent.”.

“Me-in fact, when did you ask about Val's feelings?..“ Val asked as he looked at his older brother, who was silent.

“Ya. Forget it...”

Varen then said as he smiled at Val.

“Abang that bounces because glad you're aware. Now, you just have to focus on recovering your condition, and don't talk too much because it also requires power, hem?”

“I-ya, Brother..teng-gulok Val also still feels dry, even though it has been drinking ta-di—“

“You want to drink again?” varen said, looking at Val who nodded.

Then Varen looked at Celine.

“It's okay, if he drinks a lot, Cel?” he asked one of his confidants.

“It's okay, Mr...” replied Celine.

🌷

Aided by Momma, Val again gets a drink to wet his throat which Val still feels so dry.

“Te-thank you, Momma..”.

Val said softly after he finished drinking with the help of Momma.

“Sama-sama, Dear..”.

Momma replies Val's thanks to him.

Val then shows her smile to Momma.

And Val's smile was contagious to everyone she was with.

Yang felt relieved, because although thin and weak, they could finally see Val's smile again after approximately six months of Val's smile not visible.

“The throat of Val is still felt dry?” it was Mama Jihan who asked, because Val then fell silent with her neck up and down like she was trying to swallow something.

“Su-dah doesn't fuse ta-di,” Val replied still with her soft tone of voice.

“Alhamdulillah if it is.”

Mami Prita is speaking.

“But don't be forced to talk first if your throat is Val cepet again Val rasain dry.”

“I-ya, Mami..” Val said just by the movement of his lips alone, while he smiled again. Then everyone's focus turned to Celine speaking.

🌷

“Young Miss Valera, sit it up quite first huh?... Now Young Miss lies down first again, after she wants to sit back, just say it. But because the condition of Miss is still weak, so for a while do not sit too long.“ said Celine who was closer to Val.

Val nodded and gave a faint look at Celine. “I, yes,” reply Val.

After that, a conversation between Celine and the Val family members who were with the girl was created and Val just noticed.

Until finally Celine said again if the moment after Val ate, Val should be allowed to rest. In order to recover his condition, besides the girl it looks like a confused person.

That's what Val feels and thinks. It's just that his throat that he still feels dry quickly and has a rather painful effect if he makes a sound, making Val urung if he had wanted to interrupt to ask.

Then the many conversations that chimed in from the people in front of him, could quickly disperse Val if there was something he wanted to ask. So right now, he just watched those with him talk to each other.

Until then Val was returned to his position to lie down by Varen who then resigned from the presence of Val. And coded for Celine to follow him out of Val's intensive care room. Where one of Varen's confidants immediately nodded in understanding, then followed Varen when Drea's husband stepped away from where Val was.

While Val continues to lie down until food for him comes and then is helped again sit by the Daddy following Gappa and three Val brothers who are waiting their turn to visit after Val wakes up from a coma.

🌷

“Kak Arya if you want to enter see Val, you can..”.

Drea who had come out of Val's room then reprimanded Arya who was sitting with Mika and The other Kiddos.

Arya nodded and smiled. “Casual ‘Ya. Let you guys who are satisfied used to spend the same time Val. Besides Val also still need a lot of rest even though he just woke up from a coma.”.

“Iya sih—“

🌷

“After this Val no longer requires infusion, right?”

It was Poppa who said to Celine when Val had finished eating using his mouth after about six months Val ate through the hose.

“If it is stable, then after this infusion runs out then Young Miss Valera no longer needs to get infusion, Mr. Andrew—“

“There's still medicine he needs to take?..” Dad R then raised his voice.

“I just asked Aida and Hana to check on the blood sample of Young Miss Valera.”

Celine answered as well.

“If the result is okay, it means the antidote is working well and only vitamins will I give Miss Young Valera.

‘Aidstress?’

It was Val who was deepened after he had faintly heard Celine's voice.

‘What antidote, yes?—‘

“Hey, Baby, is there any pain you feel?” Papi John reprimands Val, because Val is silent while looking at Celine who is discussing with Poppa and Dad R.

“Heu?”

Val who gasped.

“Do you feel pain?”

Papi John repeated his question.

Val shakes. “V-al feel a little adorn-tuk—“

“Ya already, then you rest first huh?..” said Daddy Jeff and Val immediately nodded with a smile.

Then forget about him who wanted to ask.

🌷

All members of The Adjieran Smith family who are on Little Star Island have got their turn to visit Val post-comment. And now, Val is made to rest again by Celine for the recovery of stamina besides Val has been getting food intake directly after for approximately six months, Val only get nutrients through infusion.

So once Val is conscious now, all food intake for her will be disciplined assumed to Val.

In addition to vitamins that are also given Celine, to help the Val recovery process faster. And if Val is fit enough to do a series of checks to observe the condition of his body.

Even Val who was a little sleepy until the girl then said if she was really sleepy, was left to sleep by Celine because of the drowsiness that Val felt was a natural process. After a while, Daddy Val, including Mommy Ara, who continues to be loyal to Val's side, questions security if Val is allowed to sleep again when he just woke up for a while.

But Celine gave a soothing explanation, until the Val family then felt relieved with Val who fell asleep again after not long awake from ‘tasur long.’

But still, worries arose from the members of the Val family, when Val felt long enough to fall asleep.

Then those who were worried were pacified again by Celine with the explanation the woman gave.

Val fears she will fall into a coma again after the girl falls asleep and breaks down, as Val wakes up in the morning in a condition that looks better than the day before.

🌷

“Ezra same Nino said to come tomorrow yes, Poppa D?”

Momma asked her husband in the dining room as the two and several other family members took part in the second session for lunch.

After the first session, those who took lunch in the second session were taking a turn to accompany Val, who did an examination on his head.

“Iya..”

Poppa immediately answered his beloved wife.

“Mario will also come with them,” said Poppa again and Momma a small beard.

“Sini Mi, ’Ya. Eat first.”

Arya who spoke, when she saw Mika enter the dining room with Drea.

Where the two immediately nodded then took a seat and joined the others who were having lunch in the second session.

“Abang equals Which son, Juleha?—“

“Abang again nemenin Val back to his nursery, later immediately followed here. Drea was told to eat first. The same daughter was bribed by Mama Fabi and Oma. At once invited to play with Papa and two kank uyut —“

“Oh, yes already..takimbin eat Abang also if that,” said Momma.

Drea was also pestering.

“Already finished all Val checks today?” ask Poppa.

“Already Pop... only physiotherapy for a while, then MRI and CT Scan—“

🌷

“Already out the result, Cel?..” Varen, who had finished his lunch and was outside the castle, had a habit of eating with several other men to enjoy a stick of nicotine and some of them were vaping, asked Celine who appeared before him and those who were billowing with him.

Celine answered Varen's question.

“This I want to give it to you, because the great masters there is none in the nursery of Miss Young Valera.”

“They may rest in the room again, Cel,” timpal Nathan, and Celine nods with a smile.

“After this you go eat with Aida and Hana too.”.

“Casual, Sir. Hana whom I have told to go to rest, because she takes care of the night.”

Celine said politely but casually. And Varen nodded in response. While he received several sheets of paper from Celine's hand which Varen then read.

“What is the result good?..” asked Varen before he read the piece of paper that Celine gave.

“Focused on the brain and spine of Young Miss Valera, all the results are good, Sir. All other internal organs are also in good condition. Medically, Young Miss Valera is otherwise healthy.”

Varen and some men who were more or less the same age as him then smiled after hearing Celine's reply, while also reading the results of the examination brought by Varen trust women for the affairs of activities on Little Star Island.

“Then Val's problem is still not focused and often looks confused, what is the effect of the coma?..” asked Nathan to Celine who immediately nodded.

“Young Miss Valera includes having a pretty good immunity even though she is still a bit unsteady to walk. But as for the size of the person who just regained consciousness from the coma, in the space of two days he has been quite fresh, it is amazing, Mr.”

Then Celine gave an explanation.

“Because usually, people who are newly conscious from a coma at least at the earliest it takes a week to recover. But Miss Valera can already sit down and eat by herself and even clean up even though she is still a little limited in her movements. Beyond that, the psychic problem is that he is still often less focused and looks confused, it is because Young Miss Valera is still adjusting to the situation around her now.”

Celine spoke at length.

“It's normal, really, sir. It's only been two days, and the memory in his brain must still sort the events that happened to him before he was in coma—“

“Alright, Cel... thank you very much huh?” varen hatch. “You go eat and rest there..” said Varen again.

“Iya, Tuan—“

“Are there any more checks for today?”

“Tomorrow Sir, for EEG and physiotherapy if Young Miss Valera still has trouble to stand for long time without the help—“

“Ya already then.”

“Oh yes Sir, one more. Just let Miss Valera remember for herself what happened. Don't be forced to think hard first.”

Varen and those who were with him then nodded, and after that Celine withdrew from before the mature men.

🌷

“Val, seems like a lot of sleep huh?..”

It was Kafeel who said, when he had the time to see Val who was like Kafeel said just now, if his beloved little girl was pretty much asleep.

In the sense--Val was most awake about three hours after he woke up from a coma, then the girl would fall asleep in time as people sleep at night.

“The metabolism of his body is not normal.”

Varen then responded to Kafeel's remarks, as he was standing with the man behind Val's glass intensive care room.

Kafeel also nodded.

“So if she falls asleep for a long time, Celine says it's nothing.”

Varen said again.

“Toh despite the length of his sleep, Val moves occasionally, even changing positions. Unlike him who flinch during a coma.”

Kafeel then nodded. After that, take the time to look at Val who was asleep for a long time. While waiting he was allowed to meet face to face with Val.

“Wait for all Val check process completed new lo I will invite to appear in front of him. But inget one thing, if when he saw lo then he told you to leave, you better go first until he calms down.”

“Iya—“

“In the meantime, rather than lo idle, mending lo check the financial statements sent Ammar because I did not have time to cross it report.“

Kafeel gave a smile after hearing Varen's words just now.

“Gue has resigned, Va—“

“Ga I accept resignation lo.”

🌷

“Abang..”

Val has just done a follow-up inspection accompanied by Varen and three other members of his family, and Val is now crossing the inner area of the castle in a wheelchair and Varen is pushing him.

“Ya?..” said Varen who heard Val calling him, because Val's voice was clearer now when speaking.

“What is Val seriously ill?..”

“No. You were brought here because you were in a coma and needed intensive care. That's it.”

“Why was Val not taken to the hospital?..”

“First, we want to avoid journalists in London who are sure to ask why you could be in a coma. Second---“

“Oh yes, Val has heard several times if Val is in a coma. Indeed, why did Val get into a coma?.”

“You don't remember?”

“No..”

Val's reply left Varen speechless. But after that he then remembered Celine's words if Val was still adapting his memory.

🌷

“Abang..”

“What?”

The slightly dreamy Varen then gasped as Rery whispered in his ear while touching his arm.

Val is being talked to by Ann and Drea after Varen releases her grip from the handle of Val's wheelchair.

“You need a pillow for your seat, Val?..” Ann asks and Val nods in agreement, and Ann steps up to get Val a cushion to sit on, while Drea tidies Val's hair.

“There is Kak Kaf on the front page.”.

‘Kak Kaf?..’

Val sat in his arms when he heard Rery whispering in Varen's ear, as the two were standing right behind Val.

“Why, Val?” Drea asked, because her eyes caught Val holding her left chest. “After you are sick?”

“No, Sister Drea..”

Val then replied.

“Only suddenly thumped a little—“

“Oh, possible inspection effect—“

🌷

Meanwhile in the castle courtyard,

“Today Val underwent what inspection, Dad?”

Kafeel and Val family members, especially with his men already better than ever since Kafeel had lived on Little Star Island when he was told the fact that Val was still alive after Kafeel thought Val had died by suicide.

“EEG and Physiotherapy.”

Kafeel nodded after hearing Dad R's reply.

Which is already getting better, because Kafeel has often gathered with the men without often being alone, or lingering on the side of Val when his beloved little girl was still in a coma.

Where the relationship between Kafeel and the men in the Val family is almost like the beginning, started by the Dad who never hated Kafeel. In fact, they did not have the heart of the AA after hearing that man had been depressed also because of Val.

On the basis of his pity, Varen finds out that Kafeel is with some of his family members on the castle's front page with information from Rery, decide to meet Val with the man who loves his half-dead sister. Because Varen assesses, Val's condition is good enough if only met with Kafeel.

Even Varen hopes Val's condition will improve after he sees Kafeel, then hears how the man has always been by his side for the past two months without breaking up. So Varen pushed Val's wheelchair up to the front yard of the castle where Kafeel was there.

🌷

It's just that Val's reaction when faced with Kafeel was completely unexpected.

Val did not show any pleasure, let alone happiness when he saw Kafeel. But also, not showing any hatred towards the man.

Even Val, it seems flat to see Kafeel, without any form of emotion happy or hate.

Where's Val's flatness, “Which is he?... Why should Val be given space with him, Daddy?..”

It shows that Val does not recognize Kafeel, whose face looks surprised like some of the people who are with him.

Some of the Val family men who were with Kafeel immediately looked into Val's face, to find an indication that he was faking it.

But unfortunately, the indication of the pretense was not found in Val's facial expression. Even some of Val's remarks later, so raised new concerns.

“What... Val, drive himself and crash until Val is in a coma, and then he helps Val? But as Val recalls, we were on a big vacation and Val was sitting with May on our yacht, chatting while having a snack. Then when did Val crash, huh?—“

“What did you say, Val?—“

“Yes, as Val recalls last time, we were on a cruise with all our relatives. But know-know Val has woken up in a room that looks like the hospital's outpatient room—“

“Ya Lord—“

🌷

“So how, Cel?”

“Nona Valera feels herself still at the age of fourteen.”

To be continue....
