302. Dehumanised
Once they reached the hospital, Steven immediately received treatment from the doctor while Mark and Elena went straight to Edward's parents who are currently being treated in the ICU room.
" What about your son?" mark asked with a worried face.
Mundo approached Mark then he looked at his boss in the office with a sad look and a very deep sadness.
" The doctor said that if Edward doesn't make it through tonight there's a chance that his life might be in danger!" Mark was surprised to hear the words of the mundo he could feel the pain and also the sadness of a father who thought about the fate of his son.
Because he feels the same way now. Steven is also currently in the ICU room and is getting serious treatment from his team of doctors.
Mark seemed to take a deep breath. Then he patted Mundo on the shoulder. He showed his empathy to his subordinates who were in the office working as a cleaning service. Meanwhile Elena was currently hugging her mother Edward with great care.
Martha could see her parents who were so sincere in giving empathy to Edward's parents.
Martha was happy that at least her parents still had a human side after seeing Edward who is currently still in critical and unconsciousness.
" I'm sorry Steven did something so outrageous to Edward. Steven is currently also in the ICU room, he is also unconscious after being beaten up by Martha who feels angry at her sister who has molested your son." mart said as he lowered his head because he was really sad at the moment thinking about his son and Edward who were both happy now and fighting death in the ICU room.
Steven and his friends' punches in the stomach area as well as Edward's head had inflicted fatal wounds on the young man. So that his body is unable to survive and is currently struggling to re-open his eyes in order to meet his parents again.
Mundo and his wife were shocked to hear Mart say that Steven was also in the same hospital as his son and was in the ICU as well.
Mundo glanced at Martha who he knew had helped his son to be taken to the hospital and saved him from the ferocity of Steven and his friends.
Mundo has heard a lot about Martha from her son who always protects her friends from Steven's behavior that always harasses and bully her friends who are considered inferior to her.
At a glance Mundo nodded his head in thanks through the look of his eyes to Martha. Because it has given a lesson to Steven who, even though he will certainly not be able to do that given his status only as an ordinary employee and not a wealthy person like Mark Clarkson.
Mundo's eyes looked teary. He felt moved because there were still rich people like Martha who still cared about weak people like them who dared to fight even hit her own sister in order to teach Steven a lesson that was already very outrageous against son.
Edwards' mother immediately hugged Martha and immediately thanked the beautiful girl who had contributed to give lessons for her son.
Though without words, but Martha could feel the feelings of Edward's parents at this time. However, they cannot offend their parents, who will be angry if they express their true feelings in front of their parents who have high self-esteem.
After feeling enough to provide support for both parents Edward. Mark also promised that he would finance all of Edward's treatment until he recovered and would even give a scholarship to Edward until he finished college.
Although both feelings are shattered, they realize that they do not have any strength to be able to fight the great Mark Clarkson and also strong in all sides.
The three of them then say goodbye and see Steven's condition which has now been moved to the treatment room.
Steven's condition isn't too severe. Because considering Steven's body does have strong endurance. Steven's life habits of exercising and eating healthy food, make his body have protection against attacks from outside.
After a few days in the hospital, Steven was allowed to go home.
" Mah I want to see Edward's situation. Can I?" steven asked, lowering his head.
He's been in the hospital for a few days now, it has made him think a lot about his behavior so far which is always bullying and also likes to bully his friends who are considered weak just for his personal pleasure who like to see others in distress and pain.
It is a kind of psychological illness when people feel happy to see the suffering of others.
Steven nodded his head and he was already preparing to meet Edward who until now was still unconscious.
Once inside Edward's room, Steven was seen shedding tears. He felt sad and guilty when he saw the person who had been the victim of his current bullying, looking so weak and helpless.
" I'm sorry Edward! I promise that if you get up again, I'll always protect you wherever you are!" steven promises while holding the palm of Edward's hand that is still in a coma and unconscious.
Mundo and his wife seemed to shed tears. They were moved to see the consciousness of Steven currently visiting his son.
" Edward! Hurry up and avenge my deeds to you, be a real man!" said Steven still grasping the palm of Edward's hand that was so cold because too long asleep in a sterile and germ-free room.
Not long after, Edward's eyes opened slowly.
Mundo and his wife were very surprised to see their Son who had come to their senses from his coma.
" Edward is awake!" his mother said Edward was very happy to see his son open his eyes again.
Martha who saw the miracle she immediately ran out and looked for the doctor who had been taking care of Edward.
Martha also contacted her parents. Now Edward is conscious.
Mark and Elena were so happy when they heard the good news.
Steven who was still holding Edward's palm he immediately let go of the hand and looked at Edward with a cold gaze as usual.
" Why are you here?" edward asked in a stammering voice.
Steven scratched his non-itchy nape, he felt astonished. Why Edward, who had been in a coma for almost a month, suddenly woke up after he came to see him.
Steven was truly astonished by the miracle that lay before him.
" Why did you just come to see me? I waited a long time for your arrival to apologize to me!" edward said in a stammering voice.
Steven is trying to master his heart which is currently in a state of turmoil and also confused however he can not admit his defeat in front of Edward who has been considered the weakest man in his school so he feels he has the right to bully that weak young man.
Steven did not know that Edward had a black belt and was a Taekwondo coach who was reckoned to be a national athlete.
Just because Edward always remembers his father's message to always give in to him. So that Edward always let his body be beaten by Steven and his friends.
" You're waiting for my arrival!? Have you not been in a coma all this time? Have you been playing the show all this time?" steven's questions began to get frustrated.
Edward shook his head then he smiled at Steven who looked misbehaved before him.
" I'm in a coma, only I can feel everything in this room. I can tell everyone who came and cried for me. But I never saw you here. Therefore, I said that I waited a very long time for you to apologize to me!" edward explained everything to Steven so that Steven understood that even in a coma, Edward still had full awareness of the surrounding environment.
Steven then told Edward who had been examined by a doctor that his condition had improved vital signs of his body was looking good.
Elena and Mark are very happy to see Edward who is now awake again they are very happy because after all they do not have the heart to see Steven who always regretted himself because Edward was still unconscious.
