Love Story of Alex And Desi

The Mental Hospital

Alex and Farel are in a mental hospital where Hendra Wijaya, the father of Alex Candra Wijaya, is being treated. Hendra's whereabouts in this hospital has entered the fifth month.

Five months ago Alex made a very tough decision, when he had to agree to the police decision regarding the transfer of the father who suddenly suffered a psychiatric disorder when his father had to serve a life sentence for many crimes he had committed.

Now he was watching the father with his male cousin Farel from afar. Standing side by side while putting both of his hands in his pants pocket. It is the habit of those who often do the same thing as today. In fact, they have also been monitoring the development of Hendra Wijaya for five months. But until now the doctor said that Hendra Wijaya did not show the slightest signs of improving.

"Why can't I still believe Papa's crazy?" Alex asked who was still faithful to look at the father from afar. From his monitor, the father was indeed in a state of madness. But his heart said that his father seemed to be fine.

Farel turned his gaze to his cousin-brother. "Why are you saying that? It looks like Hendra's really crazy." Now his gaze returned to his uncle who was sitting on a garden chair while laughing himself. Sometimes his uncle is seen counting his fingers while suddenly laughing again himself. "Have you ever heard a story about a man who failed to get something?"

"Hem... Why?" Alex asked who did not take his eyes off his father. It's like looking for something that feels weird from his own biological father.

"I think Hendra is going through that." Farel replied that managed to make Alex now pay attention to him.

"What do you mean?"

"Hendra's obsession with getting something that doesn't belong to him is now like this" replied Farel again which made Alex frown. "Didn't Hendra want a Wijaya Group company?" Ask again who answered a nod of the head by Alex. "His overzealous obsession made him like this" he continued, again paying attention to the younger brother of his father who was being treated in a mental hospital in the last five months.

If you think of Farel, there is a point. Hendra Wijaya's desire that is too big to have a Wijaya Group company that is not even his own has become Farel's perception that really makes sense.

Baffled. Maybe that's the one word Alex had in mind. Between believing and not believing the madness experienced by the father. On the one hand he was eager to refute all the perceptions that Farel gave but somehow on the other hand Alex's mind agreed with what his brother said.

The father had been undergoing his treatment for five months but during these five months the father also showed no signs that he would recover from the madness he is now suffering.

"So you think the madness that my Papa is currently suffering from is greed that can't get what he wants first?" Alex's question confirmed the perception that Farel had just said.

"really. His obsession is too big to get the company Wijaya Group, so he can not pressure his mind to not have what is not his. His desire is too high to make him crazy like this" Farel explained at length. "Do you remember the doctor yesterday?"

Alex simply responded to all of Farel's explanations in silence. He was still standing in his place while putting both of his hands in his trouser pocket. After returning home from work, he had made an appointment with Farel to visit his father in a mental hospital.

A moment later his feet moved to step closer to his father. Step by step. He usually never met his father in person. From the first time in prison or in a mental hospital. This was the first time he had approached his father.

"Where are you going?" Farel asked but his legs were also moved following Alex's footsteps from behind. For a moment he frowned when Alex for the first time approached his father's sister in less than fifty months in this hospital. For a moment he halted his steps as he saw Alex already sitting next to the bench where his uncle was.

"Lad..." Alex said, holding his father's shoulder. But the grip of his hand did not make the father look at him. He saw the father still doing the activity as before. Counting his hands while laughing to himself. "Lad..." Call him again. But again the father did not respond to his call. "Papa look at me..." Alex's two hands immediately held his father's arms to look at him.

"Alexes..." Now it's Farel's turn to hold Alex's right shoulder. "Relax..."

"Lad..." Alex said again. He even stared sadly at his father as his father also looked at his face. "Does you remember me?" Ask the response of the residence by Hendra Wijaya. But a few moments later Hendra again laughed while counting his fingers one by one. Suddenly there was a sense of tightness in Alex's heart when he saw the father he used to hate now even become a useless person.

A moment Farel, who understood the sadness Alex felt, now held his hand back to his cousin. Trying to strengthen his brother's heart when he can't do anything either.

Farel was staring at his cousin silently as Alex hit the glass door of his car hard until the glass door broke. To vent his uselessness as the only son of his family.

He used to have to do what his father told his cousin Farel. Trapping Farel so as not to control the company Wijaya Group. In the past he also had to take care of two women who were very valuable to him, namely his mother and sister. The game he used to live with his father because he wanted to free his mother who was being held hostage by the father.

He really hated the father because the crime of the father in the family of his cousin's brother had crossed the line. But in his little heart he felt guilty when he used to follow the game of the father. The regrettable thing is why he did not try to convince the father if the actions his father did were wrong.
