Haikal woke up and glanced at the wall clock in his room. The clock shows at 12. 30 pm, Mahendra who saw Haikal wake up immediately approached the child and rubbed Haikal's hand gently.
"Honey Kala's up? what do you want, son?" Mahendra asked very gently.
"Mom..." Haikal only answered softly with that one word while holding Mahendra's hand.
"When you're still dizzy? head hurt?" Mahendra asked again and Haikal just nodded slowly.
"Had not been forced to take a lot of rest" Mahendra gently rubbed Haikal's hand but suddenly Haikal released Mahendra's hand.
"Why son? your hands hurt?" Mahendra was confused but Haikal just shook his head Mahendra wanted to touch Haikal's cheek but Haikal avoided Mahendra.
"When why? why are you afraid of papa?" Mahendra noticed that Haikal's eyes showed fear and said not to touch him.
"Haikal this is papa darling...why are you not the same old man?" Mahendra asked in a soft voice Haikal just kept silent and suddenly cried without a sound while staring at Mahendra.
"Don't cry baby. okay okay if you don't want to touch but when you don't cry yes" Mahendra was very sad to see Haikal like this but he tried to be strong.
as the examination hours arrived Hendery had trouble examining Haikal as Haikal continued to refuse to be touched. Inevitably Hendery gave a low dose of sedative injections that would put Haikal to sleep for one to two hours.
"Doctor Haikal why? why is she afraid of me?" Mahendra.
"Mr Mahendra the effect of a trauma is not playing.Apaikal is currently experiencing severe trauma not only for what just happened but also because of what happened before you adopted him...
I hope you can be patient with Haikal's attitude. Approach him slowly as you first know him, this may be difficult but believe me he remains Haikal your child who needs your affection and presence beside him" Hendery.
After explaining all that, Hendery left the Haikal room. Mahendra sighed heavily and tried to hold back his tears, Mahendra then enveloped Haikal.
"papa will try to do the best for you dear, papa know this is heavy for Kala but don't worry son papa will never leave kala because papa dear same time" Mahendra spoke near Haikal's ear who was still unconscious in the hope that the child would hear himself in his sleep.
Haikal woke up again and saw Mahendra who was sitting in a sofa was composing fruits for him. Mahendra who saw Haikal wake up immediately approached the child and wanted to hug him but Haikal's reflexes encouraged Mahendra.
"Hiks hyks don't get sick when the hyks of Kala are afraid" Haikal cried again.
"papa will not hurt Kala nak. papa dear same time" Mahendra stood some distance away from Haikal so that the child felt better.
"Hiks hiks hiks Kala was afraid pa hiks when afraid" Haikal looked at Mahendra with tears seeing that Mahendra's heart was really hurt.
Mahendra slowly approached the child and stood beside Haikal.
"If you are still afraid of the same Papa is okay, but let papa take care of kala. when not this later when not healed" Mahendra said with eyes that have glass.
"But Kala is afraid of the hyx hyx reward when he does not want to be hurt again hyks torah pa all body when sick, if not want" Haikal.
"Yes dear yes. papa will only take care when papa promise will not touch kala without permission kala and until then not afraid again as papa" Mahendra.
Haikal just silent Mahendra's heart was really broken when he said that. His own son the child he fought for and loved was now afraid of him not even wanting to be touched by him.
Haikal has improved and his legs can also start to move, but his fear has not disappeared at all.
"The papa has a gift for this time" Mahendra gave the Gift to Haikal but Haikal avoided it.
Mahendra who saw it smiled blandly and placed his Gift box on the nightstand beside Haikal's bed.
"Papa put it here yes.it's for a time" Mahendra.
Mahendra then returned to sit on the sofa a little far from Haikal. slowly Haikal took the gift box and opened it turns out it was a necklace with the initials H&M.
"The necklace is papa's special message to Kala, H means Haikal and M to Mahendra... when you like?" Mahendra.
Haikal just nodded and put the necklace back in the box. Mahendra just kept quiet because if he asked again he knew Haikal would not answer and would only cry.
"Well, can the legs move?" Mahendra asked gently Haikal just nodded slowly.
"Why help wiping the body?" Mahendra.
Haikal quickly shook his head with a look of fear and dismay.
"Papa just help when mengelap body keep changing clothes, papa promises will not touch when it runs out" Mahendra.
"When not wiped and changed clothes later his body gatel continue to irritation.. can ya son? just a second" Mahendra.
After several persuades, Haikal finally nodded. Mahendra gently and painstakingly wiped and replaced Haikal's clothes despite Haikal's several times like fear and had revolted when Mahendra touched him.
"It's finished now papa want to put dirty clothes when to the laundry basket first, so that later all Bi Mina brought to the laundry deck here" Mahendra.
Haikal looked at Mahendra nanar he wanted to hug her but he was also afraid.The pain and fear gripped Haikal's heart and made him unable to calm down.
Haikal ate Mahendra's porridge but only a few bribes because his throat had just improved. Haikal stared at the gift box containing the necklace he had just held.
"Pity is equally poor but when afraid of pa, when afraid" Haikal said in his heart.
Mahendra could only stare at Haikal from afar. He misses the child very much and wants to hug him but he also cannot force because at this time Haikal's mentality is still chaotic.
"When you want a picture? it was Arif Bawain picture book Kala here" Mahendra.
Haikal nodded slowly, seeing that Mahendra immediately took a drawing book and pencil for Haikal.
"This is a drawing book and pencil.if you need something directly tell papa, papa want to work first yes" said Mahendra who again only answered by a small nod Haikal.
Mahendra sat down on a couch and started working in front of his laptop. Sometimes Mahendra will look at the child to make sure the situation.
