MY FOSTER SON
Caught Wet
Kalingga was declared cured after undergoing treatment for three days. The doctor comes every morning to perform an examination on Kalingga. Luckily, Jojo knew so little about the patient's treatment and medication that he was able to take good care of Kalingga.
However, doctors advised Kalingga to continue to do blood tests to the hospital this morning. The man must undergo a complete examination in order to know the condition of his body in detail.
After breakfast, Keenan and Kylan go to work, while Kai leaves for school.
"What if I don't need to go to the hospital?" ask Kalingga. He is very uncomfortable if he has to continue to deal with doctors and drugs and syringes.
"Sister, for your health. You were sick for three days and I didn't take you to the hospital. For this time, please follow the doctor's advice," said Jojo. He was washing dishes while Kalingga sat at the dinner table.
"I'm healthy, look!" Kalingga stood up while stretching out his hands. Show Jojo his body if there's nothing to worry about.
"Health from the outside is not necessarily healthy on the inside" said Jojo. He cleaned his hands and pushed Kalingga's body up the stairs.
"Jojo, please!" Kalingga.
"Come, get changed and I'll take you, brother."
"You should go to college. I'm healthy, don't force me!" exclaim Kalingga. The man continued to plead and requested that Jojo cancel their schedule to the hospital this morning.
"Well, if in the next three days you come back with a fever, I'll take the others to force you into the hospital, sister."
Kalingga was relieved. Now he can be free from the terror of syringes even though he still has to take some medicines from doctors to recover his condition.
At half-nine, Jojo left for college by riding an online motorcycle taxi. Before leaving, he had already prepared the pureed medicine for Kalingga rations during the day. Caring for Kalingga is sick, just like caring for a five-year-old child who needs to be persuaded and seduced while taking medication.
While on the way, Jojo passed a cafe located adjacent to the campus. The girl asked the driver to stop suddenly when he recognized a boy was about to enter the cafe.
"Kai, what is he doing?" inner Jojo. The girl immediately pays the driver for the motorcycle and catches up with the boy she recognizes as Kai into the cafe.
Upon entering, he sees Kai sitting down with his schoolmate. The boy sat down while waiting for the order to come. Without waiting for long, Jojo walked quickly to his foster children.
"Hey, what are you doing here? are you truant?" ask Jojo. Kai does not expect to meet Jojo, he is shocked and confused.
"Hey, Jojo. What are you doing here?" ask Kai.
"My question answer, are you truant?" ask Jojo again. The male friend who was sitting opposite Kai just stared dumbly. He did not know who the girl who was nagging at his friend.
"Jojo, I can explain. Please don't put me on brother, please!" kai said pleading.
"No way, your brothers should know about this" Jojo said, turning around. He reached into the cell phone in his bag and intended to contact Kalingga.
Panicked, Kai snatches Jojo's phone and begs, asking that the girl shut up.
"I'll explain, please don't call anyone" Kai said.
Jojo is devastated, he undoes his intention to call Kalingga and let the boy sit back.
"You owe me an explanation!" jojo exclaimed before leaving Kai. She had to leave because her class was almost here.
After arriving at the college, Jojo went straight into the classroom. He really could not focus on hearing the lecturer's explanation because his mind was filled with curiosity towards Kai.
Being a caregiver of four teenage boys to adulthood certainly makes Jojo burdened. Not only does he have to make sure his foster children eat well and all his clothes and house look clean. She also feels worried like a babysitter.
At the turn of the class, a man suddenly approached Jojo and dragged a chair to sit as close as possible.
"Jo, you never return my messages or take my calls. Come on, don't ignore me" lamented the man.
"Hey, get out of here!" Irene.
"I need an answer" continued the man. He put his head on the table in front of Jojo.
"Go!" jojo said slowly, but with great emphasis.
"Jawab my question first. You always ignore my messages and calls, why?"
"I'm busy and I have a lot of work. Stop bothering me, Leon!" exclaim Jojo.
Seeing her best friend being bullied, Irene intervened. He drives Leon away and pushes the man away from Jojo. Irene seemed to understand if Jojo's heart condition was bad. That girl daydreams a lot today.
"Is there a problem with your kids? or your parents?" ask Irene.
Jojo breathed a heavy sigh. He put his head on the table while playing a ballpoint pen in his fingers.
"My oldest son just got well. He was sick for three days and refused to go to the hospital. So the doctor provides treatment at home. He was afraid of needles and could not take medicine. Ah, it's exhausting my days," complained Jojo.
"I usually buy ice cream before my son takes the medicine. So, if she wants ice cream, she has to take her medicine as a condition" Irene said.
"Does that work?" ask Jojo.
"Of course, everyone loves ice cream" Irene replied confidently.
"Hmm, then how to cope with a child who skipped school?" ask Jojo again.
"A usually diligent child then suddenly ditching means he has a strong reason. While the child is used to it, ditching is a hobby" Irene explained.
Jojo was silent for a long time, then grabbed his phone and sent a message to Kai. Reminded the boy not to take any actions that could make his brothers angry.
When all the subjects are finished and Jojo is almost home, he is chased by a man named Leon. The man never seemed to be deterred even though Jojo rejected him many times.
"Follow me!" Leon clasps Jojo's wrist and drags the girl. Despite the flare-up, Leon doesn't let go.
"We need to talk" Leon said.
"Take me off, Leon. You hurt me!" exclaim Jojo. He brushed off Leon's hand and rubbed his flushed wrist. Now they are both on a basketball court in the backyard of the campus.
"I love you, Jovanka!"
