The Hospital Out

Early in the morning like this, I heard good news. Finally, after a month of my stay, Doctor Fanny let me out of a place full of torture. I hate being in the hospital. I hate being sick. I hate having to eat porridge every day. I hate syringes, it hurts so much. But I don't hate your readership, hehe....

Okay enough. Back to topic.

I should be allowed to come home from here tomorrow. Since I really couldn't stand it, I persuaded papa to talk to Doctor Fanny to take me home today, because I know from papa and mama's chatter that Doctor Fanny is their best friend.

"But at home later, you have to keep the condition, yes, do not drop, do not be too tired, do not think about anything about your past. Do not let stress be the point," said Doctor Fanny. Maybe, he was upset with me because I was whining back and forth to ask to go home. "Should keep eating porridge," he continued smiling triumphantly.

Not fair! Why is he still telling me to eat those vile foods, anyway? He's gonna prank me, huh?!

I cast such a sharp look at Doctor Fanny, and the look on her face was so indicative of dislike. "Ga wants to" I said in a slightly depressed tone. Tartly.

Doctor Fanny who saw me immediately laughed. He really laughed out loud. What's so funny trying? "You look like my son" he said, equating me with his son. What is the same try? "He also doesn't like to eat porridge. When being bullied like this, his behavior is the same as yours," Doctor Fanny said as she pressed on the word 'kerjai'.

So he just pranked me, huh?

"So from earlier, I got bullied?" I asked who was still upset but showed an expression of disbelief. "So, I don't have to eat porridge anymore, do I?" I convinced my opinion.

Mama and Papa who saw the two of us could only laugh softly when they found out that I had been bullied by this damn doctor. If only he wasn't the doctor who had healed me, I could have brushed him with a toothbrush. Kidding. Yeah, well, what do I want to brush his teeth for? Besides, mom and dad must have known that I was being bullied by Doctor Fanny. Why didn't you tell me. You're not on my side. Papa again, it's been twice not on my side.

"Yes" said Doctor Fanny, throwing her charming smile at me. He felt innocent even though he pranked me. "Your age is the same as her."

"Yes?" I repeat his words as a question mark.

"Yes. Later you will be one Junior High with him," he said looking so happy. "In your new Junior High."

Huh huh?

I pushed my head forward a little, and my mouth opened. "New SMP?" ask me to confirm his words.

"Hmmm...." Papa was on the couch. Papa stood up and walked over to me. "Darling, from tomorrow you're in a new school." Papa made clear what Doctor Fanny said.

"Why, Pa?" I ask who is astonished.

Tech.... Tech....

Again the clockwork clanging sounds I always hear, when I ask them things they might find difficult to answer. What are they, anyway? Afraid I won't accept it or find a reason to lie?

"That's not what you should think about. The important thing is, you have started school tomorrow," said Doctor Fanny who dampened the atmosphere of silence earlier.

"Hm...." I just clucked, accepting Doctor Fanny's words. I should also be grateful, still given the opportunity to go to school, despite this kind of memory loss. "We're sorting out, yuk, Ma, Pa. Kayla's really hot in here," I continued.

--oOo----

I still can't believe I've been here. The house I had turned out to be bigger than I expected along the way. In this house, whatever I want is available. Like a heaven of the world. There is a swimming pool, there is a garden, there is a library. However, what amazes me the most is, my bedroom is so big. I used to think that I was still asleep and dreamed of being a princess in fairy tale kingdoms.

"Pa, Ma, wake me up" I said, still glaring to all sides of my bedroom. The room is about 8 x 10 m. Really big, right? I glanced to the other side, there was my bed on which was a roof. I thought, is this a bed or a house?

Papa and mama scrunched their eyebrows and forehead when they heard my words, and then they pinched me. I let out a sigh of pain, but they laughed out loud. "Wake up, Princess?" ask papa meledek.

It's true, it's not a dream. This is the new life I forgot.

"You rest, yeah. Mama wants to take your medicine" said the mother, who wanted to leave, but stopped coming back because I was holding her back.

"What medicine, Ma? I'm already healed." I frowned in wonder and mama just pointed towards my arm with her eyes and chin, then left.

I looked up at my arm, and was a little surprised to see so many incisions. Stupid me, why am I just realizing it now?

Suddenly my tears came, I don't know why. Papa who realized it immediately calmed me down and swept me towards the royal bed.

"Have.., don't think about the wound on your arm, dear," said papa, calming me down and wiping my tears as he and I sat on the side of the bed.

"All right, Pa." If you ask, I will not refuse. I smiled, the more inflated my cheeks are classified as cubby, and papa pinched soft cheeks that increasingly show his cubby. "Sick, Papa," I said, pretending to be in pain. But, my dad hugged my body.

"Whatever is hugged? Mama no?" asked Mama who out of nowhere suddenly appeared just like that. I didn't hear his feet at all. Mama was like Kuroko, the Kuroko No Basket anime character I watched to fill the void while in the hospital.

I let go of papa's embrace, and ran over to mama, wanting to hug her. "Okay, Ma. Kayla could breathe this. Mama is so hard on Kayla. It feels like Kayla will miss Mama." With a body this big, my mother hugged me very tightly. However, the hug still remained soft and warm for me. I truly feel an inexhaustible happiness.

Mama who heard my words immediately took off her embrace and looked at me. He just smiled sweetly, showing his neatly arranged rows of teeth. It's very different from my teeth, which are overpriced. However, despite having teeth like this, if I smile it still looks charming. Then, my mother hugged me again, followed by my father from behind.

Thank you, Lord. I have a very good family. I closed my eyes, prayed to thank the beauty God still gave me, and re-embraced the two parents I loved so much.

"Udah, ah the hugging event. We kind of want to separate," said I take off slowly hugs mom and dad. Actually, I don't want to do it, but it looks really weird to have to cuddle all this time.

"Ih, Honey. Don't let go" said Mama and pulled me back into her arms again. "Ten more seconds, yes," mama's pinta who made me and papa smile.

Ten minutes have passed, and we have stopped hugging it. It's ridiculous, but it makes me really happy. It feels like this world belongs to our family, the others are just hitchhiking. Sorry, I changed his words a little.

"Papa stay first, yes, papa wants to go back to work," said papa to me and mama. Then leave us.

I still don't know, papa's job. But, when viewed from such a big house, and the busyness of papa who rarely even saw me in the hospital, it might be a very great papa job.

"Well, we treat your wounds" said the mother who immediately pulled me back to the side of the bed, then treated my wounds very slowly to make me not sigh in pain at all. Then he wrapped the scars of the incision, until it was no longer visible. My mom is like a professional nurse.

"Thank you, Ma," I said as my mother ended my wounds.

"Together, my dear." A sweet smile is singled out on your thin lips, showing the curvature of the lips that are almost as curved as the moon. "Mama stay first, yeah. You just rest here. Tomorrow you start school, so gather all your strength for tomorrow." My mother moved my body to lie down. And stroked my head gently while singing the song 'nina bobok'. I treated my mother like a two-year-old child who wanted to sleep.
