A Piece of the Past In White Grey
Chapter 25

Now I look at my sister's departure from the window. Under the yard there Mami and Papi drove Gara to the airport feeling unwilling. I know they're heavy to drive Gara. Because we all know if the holidays are still a few weeks away. At first Mami was very surprised to hear Gara had to go to the airport today as well.

My body limps down on the mattress after seeing the house car coming out of the yard.

“Why should it be like this eventually? Should I be happy or sad? Because I am so sincere. But that relationship will never be possible. We're sister brother. Although not a blood brother, but I was raised lovingly from Mami and Papi. Of course it would be inappropriate if I put my heart on the child that they hope will get the perfect companion. It's not like I'm not clear the origin and my intelligence is below average.”

Since Gara's departure that day I never again got a call or just a short message you used to send. All his attention just disappeared. I knew this was all I expected even though it felt so lost.

“Agatha, what's wrong with you?” Once in the morning when I woke up, Mami's voice sounded making me glare open my eyes.

It felt like my body was so limp and uncomfortable when it wanted to move.

“Mami,” I see Mami's hand has been placed on my forehead. Today exactly two weeks passed after Gara's departure from home.

“Agatha, you fever dear. Wait, Mami get me a thermometer first.” Tasha's mom was so freaked out that I had a fever.

Maybe because of my body fatigue it became feverish. Working too long to busy myself to not pay attention to my body condition.

Mami came to check on my body, and it sure looks 39 degrees hot on my body at the moment.

“Mami, I'm fine. Don't worry like that. This seems like a symptom of wanting the flu only.”, said I who held Mami Tasha's hand when she looked very panicked.

“You must be taken to the hospital, Darling.” I'm shaking.

At that moment, a voice from outside my room was heard.

“I'm fine, Mommy. Papi must have been very panicked outside.” Sighs Mami also came out for a moment.

I don't know what they're talking about out there, which is clear when I re-enter my room I see Mami already looks sad.

“Mi, I'm fine. Don't be sad like this.” It's not like that. A face that is always cheerful and warm looks sad when it knows this child who cannot return pain.

“Gara also hurts, Agatha. Why are you both sick like this? Papi you will leave today also because Gara has been rushed to the hospital.” Successfully both my eyes are perfectly rounded to hear Mami Tasha's words.

Whahuh? My little sister is sick? Because sick? Nnnnope. This is impossible. How could we not be together for two weeks and now I hear bad news about him.

My head is even dizzy at this moment. However, as hard as I can convince Mami if I'm okay. There because it's much more concerning for sure. All this time I know every sick Gara always in the care of his parents even I also took part in caring for him.

“Mami, go with Papi. I'm fine here. There are many of my best friends who can take care of me, Mi.” I saw both beads of Mami's eyes glazed over and her head shook.

“Mami promised your late mother. Mami will take care of you, Agatha. Take care of you with all your soul and body Mami. Just like we take care of our biological children.” My tears fell hearing how Mami Tasha truly loved me. Even when her own son is in the hospital, Mami can still decide to take care of me.

“Let your Papi depart with Grandpa and Grandma only.” I hugged Mami Tasha's body even though my body was struggling to get out of bed.

Until the next second I could no longer see or hear anything. My eyes were suddenly dark in Mami's arms.

What a bastard I am can have a taste in the child of a woman who is very kind and sincere to me. However, my position is still wrong as a brother where my age is older, it cannot prevent wrong actions from happening.
