Does Fate Have to Be Like This?
Sick Mom

This week I would love to meet with my friends to play with them, and I would like to thank Kasta for giving me the key to the whole exam yesterday. But it seems like today I can't go out to play because I'm not feeling well. At this time, my mother was lying limp in her room while she was covered.

I brought water, medicine, and food for my sick mother lying in her bed. My heart is hurting to see my mother's condition like this. Maybe mom got sick like this because mom forced herself too much to clean this big house alone. I couldn't help him every day, because I had to go to school, and sometimes I had to do the work that the teacher gave me. Sometimes I also have to picket classes to clean up classes that make my school schedule longer.

"This mother I brought her medicine to my mother." said I who put her on the table beside my mother's bed.

"Thank you Ryan my dear son." said my mother in a weary voice, and soon woke up from her sleep to prepare to take the medicine I gave her. Then I gave the medicine to my mother, and also a glass of fresh drinking water for my mother.

"Eating the fruits that carry also mom, so that mom can heal quickly" said I who peeled apples with a knife in my hand. Then I peeled off the whole apple to give it to my sick mother. I fed it slowly, and cut the small apple, so that it would be easy to swallow.

Cklek! then suddenly Angga's uncle who heard my mother was sick from his son, Angga came to my mother's room. I saw the face of Uncle Angga that I had never seen before. Truly very surprisingly, a cold face that had never once shown a different expression to us, was now showing an expression that was not at all his nature.

Uncle Angga immediately ran over, and placed his hand on my mother's forehead lying down. Mother's face was immediately shocked as soon as Uncle Angga did the unexpected, mother's face looked red, and her condition seemed to immediately look fine. I who was innocent, and did not understand about a feeling called love could only look at them in wonder.

Pluck up! suddenly a hand touched my shoulder, and it turned out to be Adrian's. I felt surprised because Adrian was also suddenly like this to me, I was confused because suddenly Adrian felt pretty close to me, as if everything that had happened before had never happened. But I immediately realized myself, where maybe he will get back to familiar with me, this must be just his acting in front of mother, where he will be, and Uncle Angga to make our friendship look okay.

"They look friendly." said Adrian with words that surprised me.

"A-what do you mean?.." said I who did not understand his words, and immediately keep a distance with Adrian.

"I mean they look good as a couple" Adrian said to me with the same expressionless look as his father's face he always showed. It seems like father, and son are the same, their faces, their expressions are very similar, why I only realized now.

"Haha... don't joke.. What fits, are you mocking us who look like this?" my words felt that Adrian's words were softly insinuating us. He said fit regardless of what other people thought, to my mother. We are monsters, and monsters are not compatible with humans. That's what I thought of Adrian saying just now, that he was insinuating my mother to me subtly.

"Huh? whatchu mean? it seems you misunderstood." said Adrian who was surprised to see my very annoyed look at him.

After that Angga uncle who seemed worried about my mother immediately carried my mother in the car, and took her to the hospital. Her face that was worried to the brim with sweat made me feel bad. Something that made my mood confused, actually I was also curious about the nature of Uncle Angga who suddenly changed like this when my mother was sick.

My mother was inpatient with hospital facilities, and the best care. This is all thanks to Angga's uncle who is very worried about the state of the mother. Even my mother still looks shocked by the nature of Uncle Angga just now. So is it with me, because it's such a rare sight.

"Don't. don't go. Please..hold on.." said Angga's uncle in his small voice, who was sitting next to my mother's hospital bed. Uncle Angga seemed to suffer once, to the point that he lowered his head which he never bowed to anyone.

Then suddenly Adrian pulled me out of my mother's ward violently. After I walked out of my mother's room, I immediately let go of my hand with an annoyed face. Again Adrian looks strange, his pupils look enlarged at a glance.

"What's wrong with you? what do you want? are you still not satisfied with throwing me away? do you intend to make my mother your second target to satisfy your foul feelings!" I said with annoyance to Adrian, and after that I immediately turned around, body, and tried to go back into my mother's room.

But suddenly Adrian pulled my hand and bowed his head to me, "Don't bother them both for a while until my father comes out of your mother's room" said Adrian who looks depressed with his voice that sounds heavy. I don't know what he's thinking, but somehow my heart feels sorry to see him, my heart really feels it, the feeling he feels.

"Why? are you able to explain it to me." I said the truth I asked like this out of curiosity about the nature of Uncle Angga who changed drastically like this. But Adrian did not answer my words, and kept his head bowed before me.

Until he finally spoke, "After my mother left. He was like an undead living his life in a world that was colorless to him. That's why he looks cold, and expressionless. But after he found you on the street, my daily life seemed to change a little.

Until finally dad really showed his expression back. Your mother in my eyes looks like my late mother, maybe that's why I brought you home that no one ever came to her. Maybe because of that, my father became restless after hearing the news that your mother was not okay. Because he thinks of your mother as his late wife in his eyes, then he immediately felt the worry in his weak heart" said Adrian who finally explained about his father at length.

If not wrong then I've heard a glimpse of the story about Adrian's mother. Her mother died a few hours later after giving birth to Adrian. Now everything makes sense, about why Uncle Angga became like this. If it's like this, then I'll just let it go according to what Adrian wants, and Angga's uncle.

And also my mom. who seems to be a little happy. I'm still me, and I'll never change until then. Until I finally realized where the right position for me. For a person like me, you will only be at the bottom, and be a supporting character for them.
