Linger

Take a shower

In the afternoon, the rain fell again, making Kalea forced to bite her finger because her desire to walk in the hospital park could not be realized. Gavin clearly rejected his reckless idea of staying on the streets using an umbrella. And because he had promised not to be naughty again, then Kalea only complied when now Gavin told him to sit on the bed while enjoying the guava juice brought by Karel.

Yes, the young man is still desperate to be in the hospital despite having passed through a terrible incident that almost took away all his sanity. His fear of Kalea's condition overcame the horrors that spread throughout his body as he had witnessed Gavin's and Kalea's fornication earlier this afternoon.

"You don't want to go home for a change of clothes?" gavin asked as he glanced at Karel who was standing beside him. The young man's appearance was disheveled once, akin to a rasp.

"Later. I still want to be here." Karel Sahut. Just like Gavin, Karel also just stood still while watching Kalea who was sucking the juice of his bamboo.

"I've got some clothes on, you want to wear mine to change?"

Karel turned with one eyebrow raised up. Inwardly, Gavin was willing to offer him a favor. Is this a form of guilt for bringing him into an uncomfortable situation by hearing a shitty crackling sound this afternoon? Or the... Gavin is just trying to build a good-natured male image to make Kalea even more heartbroken?

But in contrast to her busy brain guessing the hidden intentions behind Gavin's offer, Karel nodded her head without hesitation.

"Before, I'll get it first."

Karel mangosteen again. He watched Gavin walk towards the storage cabinet on the right side of Kalea's bed until the man returned to his side, thrusting him in a black suit and shorts.

"Soap is in the bathroom. A toothbrush is also there, I bought some of it."

"Hopefully, already want to nginep long lo all buy-buy new toiletries." Karel Librarians. However, he grabbed the shirt from Gavin's hand and immediately walked to the bathroom.

After Karel's figure disappeared behind the bathroom door, Gavin again paid attention to Kalea who was now looking at him seriously.

"What?" tanyakanya. He knew Kalea had questions to ask, but it seemed that the woman was still a little afraid of him.

"I have to be treated here until when?"

"For as long as possible, until you are completely healed."

"But I'm the boss."

"Bossen's rather than sick."

"Gavin's..."

"According to what the doctor said, let it heal quickly and get out of here soon."

After that, no more protests came out. Kalea again suck juice jamnya with solemn. While Gavin still continues to nail the gaze as if he does not want to be helped again in terms of watching over Kalea.

Fifteen minutes later, Karel was out of the bathroom. The young man's hair was half wet and the smell of soap filled the room as he walked closer to the bed.

"The dirty clothes put it there, I'll take care of it." Gavin orders while pointing the dirty clothes basket in the corner of the room near the bathroom door using his chin.

Karel turned his head in the direction that Gavin meant, then without much question did as Gavin commanded. It's freaky. Karel himself did not understand why he was so obedient to Gavin. In fact, his hobby is to look for a storm with the man.

After throwing the dirty clothes into the basket, Karel returned again to the side of Kalea's bed. This time he was standing on the left side, opposite Gavin who was standing on the right side. Now, Kalea looked like a royal princess escorted by two of the most formidable knights in the entire country. Narrating.

"Where to go, huh?" kalea asked after finishing her juice. Gavin swiftly grabbed the empty cup and directly threw it into the trash can near the bed.

"Go home for a second and get a change of clothes." Gavin. "Why? You need anything?" tanyanya.

Gavin raised his face, glanced at Karel and they stared at each other for a few seconds. Until finally, Gavin retracted his gaze and looked down at Kalea.

"Just like Mother, will you?" bargained for.

"Mother is still here?" ask Kalea wonder. Because he thought his father-in-law had been home since.

"still. Want to be the same Mother? If you want, let me call you."

Kalea seemed to think for a moment. Mother is good and so painstaking when taking care of herself. Only, Kalea was not too close to her in-laws. Is it okay if he asks Mommy to help him take a bath?

But he had not finished considering, Gavin had already darted away from there. Maybe the man was too impatient to wait for Kalea who thought too long.

"I'm not done thinking." Kalea muttered as Gavin was no longer visible within her sight.

"Laki lo emang sat-set sat-set so, huh? Good, hell, but sometimes anjir's serem." Karel followed the grumbling.

After which, they looked at each other for a few seconds before finally exhaling a long breath simultaneously.

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

When Gavin came out of Kalea's nursery with the intention of finding Mother, Gavin was instead treated to a scene that gave him a headache.

From a distance, Mother walked towards him along with someone she hoped would not need to be present now.

Yes, that person is Papa.

Ever since the man said he would take the time to come here to visit Kalea, Gavin did not expect the sentence to be more than a small talk. But it turns out that the man's desire to look for face was apparently great as well, so willing to leave the job that he had been god-devoted to come here.

"Where's the mother from?" ask Gavin when Mother has arrived before him. He did not want to make small talk about welcoming Papa.

"From the front, get Papa." Answer Mommy with a warm smile that is like it has been set automatically. "Why? You need anything?"

"Kalea would like to ask for help with a shower." Gavin said straight to the point. He had mis-focused on the Lily bouquet in Papa's hands before he finally devoted his focus entirely to Mother.

"Can you shower? Don't you want to wipe with warm water?"

"The doctor said it's okay if you want to take a shower, as long as you use warm water. Mostly Mother knows for herself Kalea her wayward son, would not want her if only told lap-lap body doang."

"Yes, Mother will accompany him to take a bath."

Gavin doesn't say it anymore. He immediately turned around and walked back to Kalea's ward without any intention of letting Papa in.

Behind him, Jonathan could only sigh deeply at Gavin's attitude. There is nothing to blame either from Gavin's insolent attitude, as he clearly knows Gavin's current attitude is a form of pent-up disappointment for a dozen years ago.

"Come, Mas."

Jonathan received his wife's hand, and they went hand in hand after Gavin went into the ward of Kalea.
