"Why are you guys here? Remember having a child?" Ketus Nathan when he saw the presence of his parents is now in the inpatient room.
Those who came were Nathan's parents. At first he was surprised to see their arrival but he immediately neutralized the look of his face to be flat again. The look on his face was flat but in his heart he was a little happy because he knew that his parents had come to see him. He thought that his parents were a little concerned about him even though now their faces look sour.
"We wouldn't have come here if these people hadn't picked us up" said Mama Nathan as if he didn't care about her feelings.
Degs...
Nathan's heart was as if sliced by an invisible knife. He did not expect that his own mother could say such a thing to him. He was his real son but like an adopted son. He thought they were here because they wanted to visit him, but it turned out that the assumption was wrong.
Both her parents never cared about her. Always all they think about is a career even since childhood only ART at home cares. ART passed away a few years ago. After his ART died, he became a frequent complain about his life to Grandpa Angga.
They didn't even want to spend a dime on Nathan. From the first cost of his life was even financed by ART named Mbok Nia and Grandpa Angga who incidentally is his own neighbor.
"Sorry Nath, I brought them here. Let his brain be a little right if he sees his son again in a time of pain like this should be looked at. But if they are not aware as well, it means both do not have a brain like my parents" said Lio sarcastically.
"What's it made, Lio? Make insulting and uttering painful spicy sentences. After all, they are here also will not give me money to pay for my treatment. Let alone the cost of the hospital, the cost of eating and school just me from the mercy of others" ketus Nathan while laughing miris.
If you think about it, Nathan's life is so sad that he never really thinks too much about the future or his past. But of course Grandpa Angga who will continue to shape himself in order to achieve his future.
"Don't be rude you're the same parent. You two are the same, useless so we as the ones who make you not want to take care of. Then what now? After all, Nathan still lives in our house for free even though the cost of eating and school must think for themselves" said Papa Nathan challenged.
Lio could only shake his head to see the behavior and speech of the two who were not much different from his parents. Even this one is more sad, bringing up his son who lives in their house. It felt like Lio was stuffing their mouths with toilet soap to make them poisoned.
"I just want a statement from you. You gave Nathan to my grandfather as a foster carer, and he will even leave your house" Lio said.
Angga's grandfather had told him that he needed the letters to take care of Nathan so that he could become his foster child. With the letter of the legal provisions of foster care, of course, Nathan will be included in their family card so that when registering for school will be easier.
Nathan was shocked to hear what Lio said. Surely there is a sense of happiness when the person who had always helped him was actually volunteering as his guardian. He felt wanted in Lio's family compared to his own parents.
"Lio... Grandpa and Loe do not need to do rich gini. You guys have helped me a lot" Nathan refused unkindly.
"No, it's my decision with Grandpa. Loe entered the grandfather's family card" said Lio firmly.
Hearing that certainly made Nathan not feel good. Finally Nathan nodded his head in agreement. He believes he is no longer strong if he hears all the abuse that his parents threw at him. Moreover, they brought up her who lives in her house which means she is no longer considered family.
"alright. I'll give up custody to your grandfather. After all, we both didn't need Nathan because we already had other children who were much funnier and more obedient. Oh that is clearly not your rich installment" said Mama Nathan with his spiciness.
Hearing this, Nathan turned his face and clenched his hands together. The emotion of her hearing the heartless speech that was thrown from her lips. But he was very curious about who the child was meant by them, because every meeting seemed like his mother was not pregnant if indeed he had a sister.
Lio walked out of the room for a while and then shortly returned. Lio came with a letter that his grandfather had prepared with a stamp inside.
"Please write the name, ID number, address, and signature on this stamp" said Lio firmly.
They quickly take out the proffered paper and then complete what is requested. Even they did that without a second thought made Lio only be able to stroke her chest patiently.
"So don't you want to see me and accept me as a child? You didn't even ask me when you saw me lying in a hospital gurney. That quickly you handed me over to others as if there were no burden at all" Nathan's inner smile miris.
Lio glanced at Nathan at a glance, there was a look of disappointment and sadness in his eyes but the young man tried to cover it up. Lio must firmly do this so that in the future his best friend's parents do not undermine Nathan's life that has improved. Although actually breaking the relationship between the child and the parent is not allowed.
"It is" said Mama Nathan as she handed the paper over.
Lio took it and asked Nathan to sign there. With trembling hands, Nathan immediately affixed his signature there. After he finished, Nathan immediately handed it back to Lio.
"If Nathan is successful one day, you can't interfere with his life. Think of it as a stranger who has just met" said Lio who saw his two best friend's parents were already standing at the door.
"good. If you see us, think of us as strangers too. No need to worry and be kind" ketus Mama Nathan has no heart.
Both of them immediately came out of the treatment room without any burden. While Lio approached Nathan then hugged him so tightly. Nathan was sobbing as if what his parents said hurt him so much.
