Genius Child: CEO & His Private Chef
CHAPTERS 121. Trauma of the past
**Mansion Wijaya***
###Flashback Off###
Jackson's face became very pale and his eyes could not take his eyes off the barbeque sauce cow steak Rossy was serving in front of him.
All the flashbacks of what happened twenty years ago appear over and over again and cannot be stopped at all.
Sweat poured profusely from Jackson's head and his hands clutched tightly onto the handle of his wheelchair. His breathing became very heavy and irregular.
Jackson bit his lower lip hard until it bled and Jackson did not notice it or feel any pain at all.
Rossy was surprised to see Jackson's state and immediately called out to him.
"Mr Jackson!"
Rossy shouted so loudly that Felix who was eating his barbeque sauce cow steak voraciously put down his knife and fork and ran over to Jackson.
Mr. Lesmana who saw the situation Jackson also felt tense.
During this time both Mr. Lesmana and Rossy and Felix had seen the same symptoms in Jackson when Jackson tried to eat something.
But the symptoms this time were clearly more severe many times compared to what Jackson had shown.
They all realized this time was the culmination of everything that had always been Jackson pendam tightly in the depths of his heart.
Jackson never hurt himself when he remembered his trauma. However, this time Jackson unconsciously bit his lower lip until it bled and did not realize it at all.
"Jackson! Jackson!"
Felix yelled out to Jackson and there was no answer at all from Jackson.
"Mr Jackson! Mr Jackson!"
Mr. Lesmana shouted frantically to Jackson.
Jackson could not hear any calls from Rossy, Felix or Mr. Lesmana. It was as if the one sitting on the wheelchair was only Jackson's physical body, while his subconscious was confined to the barbeque-sauce beef steak and the events of twenty years ago, which constantly appears in Jackson's memory.
Jackson felt his entire body very sick like he was hit by a big stone and he could not get rid of the big stone at all.
Jackson's chest was so tight and aching that it subconsciously held onto his chest with a painful facial expression.
Rossy was increasingly panicked and anxious to see the state of Jackson because he was sure if they could not resuscitate Jackson as soon as possible then most likely Jackson could have a stroke.
Rossy's eyes followed the direction of Jackson's eyes that were staring at the barbeque sauce beef steak before him with a blank look.
Rossy recalled Felix's words about monitoring Jackson's emotional reactions to a wide variety of foods so Rossy was convinced the barbeque sauce cow steak was the food Susan gave Jackson twenty years ago then.
Rossy took a barbeque beef steak dish from Jackson's presence quickly and Felix's barbeque sauce steak plate was picked up by Rossy.
Rossy immediately removed the two barbeque sauce beef steak plates from the dining room.
Felix realizes that barbeque sauce is the main problem that causes Jackson to lose control and consciousness so as not to prevent Rossy.
"Mr Jackson! Be aware! There is no food in front of you now. You're no longer five-year-old little Jackson. You are now a strong and tough Jackson!"
Rossy tries to make Jackson aware of the illusory traps of his past.
"Right what Rossy said. You're so strong and tough, Jackson. I'm with your grandfather, Mr. Lesmana, and Rossy will be right next to you. And there's also Chandra, your real son who was a child and needed you so much to protect him" Felix said.
Mr. Lesmana could only nod his head loudly in agreement with Felix's words because his lips could not speak any more words.
Mr. Lesmana's teary eyes held back his tears. Mr. Lesmana was very sad and shocked to see Jackson.
A while later Jackson began to be able to blink both eyes slowly. His eyes were painful as they were open for a long time.
"I have to be tough. Chandra was a kid and needed me to protect her. I don't want Chandra to suffer as much as I did for the loss of a father and mother twenty years ago" Jackson said.
Rossy immediately ran to fetch a glass of warm water and brought the glass closer to Jackson's mouth.
"Drink Mr. Jackson" Rossy said in a soft voice.
Jackson opened his mouth slowly and Rossy slowly poured warm white water into Jackson's mouth sip by mouth until the water in the glass ran out.
Rossy was relieved to see that Jackson Wijaya's face was not as pale as before.
"Felix."
Jackson called Felix in a weak and small voice.
"Yes Jackson" Felix replied.
"Help push me into the bedroom" Jackson said.
"All right" Felix replied.
Rossy stared at the departure of Jackson's wheelchair pushed by Felix.
Rossy knew the main thing Jackson needed now was calmness.
Rossy hoped Jackson would tell what he had experienced twenty years ago to Felix so that the burden of large stones that had hit Jackson so far could be removed slowly.
***Jackson Wijaya bedroom***
Felix helped push the limp Jackson onto his bed. Then take a new shirt for Jackson because the clothes in Jackson was wet with sweat.
Moments later after Jackson finished changing his clothes, Felix pulled out a chair and placed it beside Jackson's bed. Felix sat on that chair.
"Jackson. How are you feeling now?" ask Felix.
"Not good and very bad," Jackson replied with a long sigh.
"The food Susan gave you twenty years ago is barbeque sauce beef steak?" ask Felix carefully.
Jackson was silent and gave no answer. The atmosphere of Jackson's bedroom became calm and quiet.
Felix was silent waiting for Jackson's answer, while Jackson was silent too because he did not want to tell Felix anything.
Ten minutes passed without a single word coming out of Jackson's mouth. Felix was so impatient that he opened his mouth first.
"Jackson. You can't avoid it anymore. It has been twenty years that you have harbored all the hurt and pain in your heart. You should be able to tell me what happened twenty years ago. You definitely want your eating disorder to heal and become a healthy daddy to Chandra. Only you can help you right now. Tell me!" Felix.
