Chapter 61: Want to End
"Whatever problems you experience, running is not the answer.." - El-El.
BRACKET!
El opened the nursing room door violently. He came in with big steps. The sound of sighs of relief rang out as he saw Luna sitting on the chair, looking at him with a puzzled look. A few minutes ago his heart nearly fell apart when he saw the notification on his phone screen, indicating that there was a payment on behalf of the hospital. Panicking instead of getting stuck, El snatched his briefcase and ran out, caught up, and he was here.
"Luna's... Thank goodness..."
"Sister... How can I know I'm in--
Luna's words were cut off so with a tight hug from El. Along the way his brain had made him imagine the worst of the worst. Seriously ill? Getting hit? Suddenly faint? Everything that came to his mind did not help.
"What's going on?" El let go of his embrace and looked at Luna fixedly, waiting for an answer.
"Anu. that..." Luna turned her gaze to the left and right sides. "That's..." Luna pointed towards the bed where her sister was lying. "Arya is sick" he said slowly.
El turned around instantly and only realized the circumstances surrounding him. From that moment on he only focused on Luna, not paying attention to anything other than the girl. On the bed, under the covers, there was a child lying weakly with a hose adorning his hands. The boy's face looked sad, with the rest of the tears in the corners of his eyelids.
Turning perfectly, El approached Arya. He looked at her for a moment before stroking Arya's head slowly. "What's wrong?"
Arsya and Luna stared at each other, waiting for each other, asking wordlessly for one of them to give up and tell El.
"Tell me..." El was anxious for the brothers who were constantly looking at each other, instead of answering his questions.
"You both answered," he ordered. "Speak..."
Luna let out a long sigh and Arsya swallowed her hard-earned saliva. They looked at each other again.
"Jeez, just say it!" El felt this full for the first time. Didn't they know he was curious?
"Arya's sick, sis..." Luna answered doubtfully.
"Yes, I already know..." El snorted annoyed.
"I can see it..." He rolled his eyes. What he wanted to know was not this. Oh, come on, that's right.
"Hm..." Luna played her finger. "Arya's sick and she seems to need Mommy..." He bit his lower lip, then looked at Arsya, as if telling his sister to continue her sentence.
The awkward Arsya, connected Luna's words with a stammer. "A... A... Arya's sick..."
Already know...
"He's sick..."
I can see it...
"He's a typhus..."
Gosh...why keep turning?!
"Where's your Mother?" El who was tired of getting lost in Arsya's words that kept spinning from earlier, chose to ask directly. It could be until the new year if he waits for Arsya to speak.
The two brothers looked at each other again. El had breathed a rough sigh. Luna who heard it, felt she had to say it immediately, before El lost his temper.
"Mother leaves the house, don't know where..."
"Huh?" El was a little surprised to hear that. Get out of the house and leave her child in this state? Is he crazy?
"Get out of Alex's house, Mommy's out..." Arsya paused for a moment, he examined El's face, guessing whether his brother-in-law would feel angry or guilty. But, he couldn't read it. Poker face El is too hard to guess.
Go before knowing that his son is sick, it seems like El can still accept that.
"Can't you call him?" ask El. Arsya answered him with a slit.
"Did your father not try to find him?" He asked again.
Arsya looked completely wrong before answering. He hesitated for a moment before opening his mouth. "Dad didn't do anything... Didn't say anything..." Luna and El fell silent at Arsya's reply. Inside their brains, there was a thousand questions for the guy. One of them is why?
Arsya shook her head slowly, which indirectly answered the question that came to the couple's mind. Luna and El nodded, as if understanding that this matter was indeed not Arsya's capacity as a child, let alone that she was a minor.
"We're confused... Don't know what to do...." Arsya breathed a moment. "But I think brother Arga and brother Arka are looking for Mommy, even though they say nothing..."
"I can only help look after Arya..." Arsya looked at her sister with a sad look. His job is only to look after Arya, and for that he failed.
El and Luna looked at each other for the umpteenth time. A sense of worry emanated from Luna's face. He did not have the heart of Arsya who had tried, but he was also not as strong on Arya. What exactly has happened all this time? Are his brothers living well? Without Mother?
Luna sighed slowly, then took a deep breath. He repeated it three times. He'll ask more.
"Then, when you went to school, who was Arya?" El asked him before.
Just one question and it seemed like Luna's heart was scratched as El said it. Luna thought in silence, without a mother, her sister must have been abandoned. Arya is still a child. He still needs attention and affection.
"Nighborly, brother. Wait there until we get home. Sometimes when she gets bored, Arya goes home and waits alone. He said he'd rather be like that, he could be free to watch TV."
In a second Luna took her eyes off Arsya, trying to hold back the tears that were about to drip from her eye patch.
Luna already knew, that her youngest sister was indeed the most understanding child. He was a quiet boy and rarely whined. But still, he is still a child. His attitude is too mature for his age. A seven-year-old child guarding the house alone, it was certainly not the recommended thing to do, no matter how smart the child was. They still need to be nurtured and guided, not excessive self-study like this.
Arsya. "Yes..."
Luna bit her lips, closed her mouth tightly. He must not cry, just look at his sister even more rigid than him.
"Then who drove Arya to school?" El felt that he should be more attentive to Luna's younger siblings. Yesterday he only solved the problem between adults. He forgot about the impact this had on these children. He should have been more sensitive.
"Dad, brother." answered Arsya.
"Then who picked you up?"
"He went home alone, brother..."
Home yourself?! This little kid isn't afraid of getting lost or being kidnapped?!
"What's okay?"
"Streetings, sis..." El almost fainted hearing that answer. Little boy, go home alone, walk... All the way alone?! He rubbed his forehead which suddenly felt dizzy.
It couldn't be worse...
"Do you cook?" El continued his question. He wanted to know, down to the most trivial thing.
"No, sis... Dad bought me dinner back from work..." El's forehead is wrinkled. The answer that made his head wince.
"How breakfast?" Further.
"It's often late to wake up, so no breakfast..." Arsya stroked her chin trying to remember.
"Lunch?" ask El again.
"We are given pocket money, so lunch at school...."
Now Luna understood why her sister had come like this. "Sister, can you please find out where Mother is?"
El nodded in understanding, he immediately told Kris to do just that. The man who today was dressed in black from top to bottom, only nodded once and left without a word. Whether since when Kris was there, Luna was unconscious. It's a ghost.
El stroked Luna slowly. "Just relax, your mother will be found..."
"Thank you, brother..."
"Same-sama darling..." El kisses the top of Luna's head. Arsya who witnessed it even looks ashamed of herself.
El was aware of Arya's misbehavior, he smiled for a moment before finally speaking. "After this, you stay home with us..."
Arsya's face was shining brightly. "Really, brother?" He asked in disbelief.
"Of course it's true..." El shuffled Arsya's hair dear. "There will always be a place for family..."
Arsya welcomed El's warm smile with a excited nod. "Thank you, brother..."
"Yes, you're welcome..." Now he turned to Luna. "Ep... Honey, I'm kind of hungry. Let's go get some food..."
"Hmphc... You're..." Luna pouted but still got up from her seat and walked to the door.
"Do you want to drop something, Shay?" Seeing Arsya shake her head, El immediately caught up with Luna who was already standing in the doorway.
***
Not perfect yet El put his ass on the chair of the hospital canteen, his cell phone rang.
📞 Yes, how?
📞 Get there now...
Luna was surprised not to play when El held her hand suddenly and pulled her hand just like that, even though she was queuing to buy food. There was only one more, and then it was his turn. But at such a crucial moment, El pulled him out of line.
"What the hell is it, brother?" Luna asked annoyedly while following El's steps, half-running.
"Hurry up, we don't have time..." El pulls Luna's hand to speed up their steps. The loud sound of footsteps adorned the desolate hospital hallway.
"Why the hell, brother? What's up?" Luna continued to ramble along the way. Obviously he was curious because this was the first time El pulled him like that, more precisely like dragging.
With a step, they finally arrived at the lobby. El's car came shortly after, they immediately went in and sat in it.
"Where are we going, brother? Do you want to eat outside? We should've taken Arsya..."
El did not answer Luna's question. In his brain right now there was a voice from the caller just now.
"Sir, what's wrong? Why are you so scared?"
"Your mother..." El hesitated to answer. His face looked sad and wrong.
But unfortunately Luna did not focus on what El's facial expression was. He just underlined the word 'Mother'. Luna's face lit up for a moment. "Mother have you met?" Luna clapped her hands happily in the passenger seat she was sitting next to El.
"Yes..."
"Where?" ask Luna excitedly. He was impatient to meet Mother with Arya. Arya must be very happy if when you wake up there is a Mother in front of him.
"On the bridge..."
"Oh.okay..."
"I'm not done yet Luna..." El turned Luna's face towards him.
"Your mother, on the bridge, tried to kill herself..."
