Hospital


Andre put Abel in the back seat then followed by Nadia who suddenly got into the car and immediately grabbed the little girl. Andre was very grateful to Nadia who was very sensitive to the situation until she followed him. So did Mbok Imah who brought Arnold and Anara in so that everyone would go to the hospital. Mbok Imah just deliver all five to the car because she has to go home immediately, especially her husband is sick.


Anara sat in the steering wheel, while Arnold was in the back seat with Nadia and Abel. After everything was ready, Andre drove his car at medium speed because he still remembered in the car there were his children. Fortunately, the road they passed felt so quiet that they did not feel they had reached the hospital. Andre immediately went down to ask for the help of the gurney on the medical team while Nadia still holds Abel. After the gurney came with several nurses behind him, Andre immediately took Abel and put him on the gurney. Afterwards Andre carried Anara who sat in the front seat and Nadia who carried Arnold in her carriage. The four of them followed Abel's gurney that had been pushed by the nurse first.


Abel was put into the ER room, while all of them were waiting in the front waiting chair of the room. Anara and Arnold had stopped crying even though their faces were still flushed red and there was even a soft sound. Andre and Nadia still continued to gently stroke the backs of the two while whispering sedative sentences.


"Sorry sir, you better tell your parents. At least now they know how the condition of his grandchildren" Nadia suggested.


Andre who heard the advice from Nadia finally agreed then contacted her parents. After knowing the news from Andre, tomorrow morning they will soon go home because they are very worried about the condition of his grandchildren, especially Abel. Even the mother was heard screaming hysterically because she heard that Abel was in the hospital due to a high fever.

Chequek...


The sound of the ER door opens after 1 hour more doctors do an examination inside Visible a doctor out with a thinning sweat. For a moment the doctor looked at the patient's family and then exhaled slowly. There was a sense of fatigue and disappointment seen in the doctor's eyes that made Nadia and Andre increasingly wary of listening to the explanation of Abel's condition.


"Are you the patient's family?" ask the doctor.


"Really, doc. How's my son doing?" ask Andre.


"Patients had convulsions, hallucinations, and anxiety due to fever that is too high. Lucky to be handled quickly. Otherwise, it could cause death. Do not underestimate the fever yes ma'am, sir" said the doctor.


Andre and Nadia who heard that nodded their heads. Fortunately they swiftly brought Abel to the hospital so that his condition was not too serious.


"What is really going on with the patient? Is this patient a victim of violence? If it is true that the patient is a victim of child abuse then this cannot be allowed. The bruises on his body are numerous. I think there's even a fractured inner bone. I will conduct a visa on the patient in order to bring the perpetrator to the police" the doctor said.


The doctor who handles Abel is someone who is also a child observer so do not be surprised if he dared to report this to the authorities even though both parents refused. He will move according to his conscience, no matter if he has to fight the perpetrators.


"Yes doc, the patient is a victim of violence from his stepfather's family. Please do an overall examination for Abel starting physical health examination as well as his psychic. Do it also for the visa because I will also bring this to the legal path" said Andre.


The doctor nodded his head and ordered a nurse to conduct a thorough examination of Abel.


"Fortunate for you because the patient is a strong child. Take good care of him" the doctor said.


Andre nodded his head, convinced that Abel was a strong boy. Surviving 3 years in conditions and environments that are very stressful will certainly have a bad effect on his body, especially his psychic, but Abel looks very strong and mature facing all that. The doctor immediately passed from the presence of Nadia and Andre to conduct an examination of his patients. While Andre will take care of the administration of his son and Nadia waiting with Anara and Arnold.

By midnight, Anara and Arnold were already sleeping on the mattress in the room. Abel had rested, while Andre and Nadia were still awake sitting on the sofa of the room.


"You better sleep next to Anara and Arnold, that's the mattress still fit" said Andre.


"It is better that you also rest, sleep next to Abel" Nadia said.


Andre said he then walked toward Abel's bed gurney and then climbed upstairs and hugged his son. While Nadia also did the same thing to sleep by hugging Anara and Arnold.

The next day...


Nadia and Andre had woken up first. Nadia went home to take a bath and get a change of clothes while Andre accompanied his three children who were still asleep. Before long Abel woke up with a face that looks sad.


"Papa.." call Abel Iirih.


"Yes, baby" replied Andre.


Andre who was sitting next to Abel's gurney immediately stroked his son's hair gently and even gave his best smile when he woke up. Abel who saw that also returned her papa smile very sweetly.


"I thought it was yesterday's dream. It turns out Abel did not dream that he had gathered together papa, Anara, and Arnold" said Abel.


"No, Abel was not a dream. We've gathered together, plus grandparents are coming today. So Abel must recover quickly yes" said Andre.


Abel replied with a nod of his head, he will believe in his papa. He was closer to his father than his mother, but somehow he was under his mother's care. But he did not blame his brother for his fate to be a victim of violence.


Abel went back to sleep after confirming that what happened yesterday was not a dream. Now he can sleep soundly without being overshadowed by the abuse, mockery, and snapping again. His papa's family will definitely keep him from everyone who wants to hurt him. He believed that.


Andre who saw his son fall asleep with a smile immediately imagined how Abel's days for 3 years. What about such conditions that his son can survive? If other children might run away, but Abel did not do that because the outside world is also very heavy for children his age.


"I promise to keep you all at stake with your lives at stake" said Andre, looking at his three children.
