Help Me, Doctor...
Earth 23 – Mom's Opportunity to Meet
By mid-afternoon Calvin Adam was still not out of the house. Mom Delia was worried because of a very drastic change as if her son had gained enlightenment and his naughty nerves were cut off one time this morning hit.
“Do you feel unwell, son?”
Calvin Adam only answered briefly without taking a look from the book he was holding, “I am okay mom.”
Mom Delia scratched her unscratchy head too astonished by the seriousness seen from Calvin Adam reading the book Basic Pharmacology and Clinic by Bertram G. Katzungs. The book that has been in this house for the last four years and still looks new because indeed Calvin Adam was never seen to take the time to read even so from the story of his classmate, he said, Mom Delia knew that Calvin Adam was an intelligent and genius child.
“Didn't because of being bumped my son into forgetting everything he learned? But that's impossible, ”lih Mom Delia monologues with herself.
Remembering the report given by Oscar and Lydia that Calvin Adam always succeeded in every practice test and rarely failed the theory test only the problem faced was that his son was often ditching so that the constraints of attendance make it hampered and not immediately able to complete his lecture.
“Mom, why did you say I was already in my fourth year. If I can master all the books in my room then I can officially become a doctor and treat people?” once again Calvin Adam's question made Mom Delia feel strange and dizzy because her son should have understood with such basic information.
“Calvin Adam, have you never listened to information from your lecturer since the beginning of your lecture?”
Calvin Adam's attention was finally turned and looked at Mom Delia, not because he did not accept the question but because there was a new word that he had to understand.
“Lecturer.. Lecturer,Leeja Calvin Adam in heart.
“Mom, let's just say your brain has been damaged after being hit this morning. Hopefully you understand mom, I promise I will finish my studies soon so that I can finish all my missions in this world soon.”
Mom Delia was inexhaustible as if Calvin Adam already had a purpose in life and had very little time in this world.
“Mom can not explain in detail Son, you just meet Oscar and Lydia, they are your playmates if you amnesia also on them.”
Asklepios really tries to remember who the two names are and hopes there is a memory left of a Calvin Adam so that he can more easily continue life without the need to be a fool who does not understand anything. But it was useless as if there was no memory of Earth 23 that he could read.
“Are they also my friends every night to go enjoy liquor, Mom?”
A Mother's patience is as vast as the Ocean but a Mother's concern is also as much as the water that fills the Ocean.
Mom Delia tried to be patient in answering and considered that Calvin Adam was playing drama with her for fun even though in her mind had considered to immediately bring Calvin Adam to check his brain if only he have enough money.
“No Boy, Oscar and Lydia are good friends and quite attentive with you and Mom. All the books you have most of them. Mom worked every day as a laborer in their home, they loved Mom like family, and forgot about your irreverence for them. Mom hopes that your previous bad attitude will also disappear after your head is hit!”
Calvin Adam got up from his seat, “I want to see them Mom, did Mom come to their house today?”
Mom Delia shook her head, “Today is the week Son, I'm off at the weekend. If you want to meet them, go two blocks from our house. From morning you haven't left the house either. The large terracotta building is the home of Oscar and opposite it is a minimalist building but has a garden with a variety of flowers that is where Lydia lives.”
On the way to the home of Oscar and Lydia, Calvin Adam attempts to establish communication with his Aunt Artemis, feeling that only his aunt can help solve his problems. In the eyes of Asklepios Aunt Artemis was more than a mother and the place she depended on was what rounded her resolve to marry Aunt Artemis.
“Don't expect you to be able to communicate with your Aunt before the feeling of love and wanting to have gone from your mind and heart,” Apollos scolds to the point.
Calvin Adam stopped walking and leaned against a large, flamboyant tree in the middle of the garden that separated his home area.
“Pa, why are you making me dazed? Why don't I have a memory of Calvin Adam's life on Earth 23? As if I was born into a baby with no memories but an adult,” Calvin Adam sulks at his father.
“Where can a dead person have a memory.”
“What do you mean Pa?”
“You replaced Calvin Adam on Earth 23 who died of an overdose last night. We at Chronos 299 see it as an opportunity to put you on Earth 23 naturally and not too conspicuously. Looks like Zeus also already knows that there will be someone suitable for you to replace.”
Still with complaints and dislike Asklepios protested against her father,
"Why Calvin Adam? Is there not a better young man I can look forward to? For example Oscar friend Calvin Adam who seems to live very well and abundant in luxury. Did you accidentally put me in a rickety hut along with that spice-scented old lady?”
“Asklepios, can't you learn to serve your punishment with a better attitude? Do you want to be thrown into Earth 23 as a goat looking for a she-goat so you can go back to Chronos 299??? If that's what you want, I'm sure even before your mission is over you've ended up being a medium rare rib eye steak with white mushroom sauce!!”
“It's awkward Pa, all this time I was only close to Aunt Artemis as a substitute for Mom and definitely my lady then.”
“Stop Asklepios!! You don't remember why you were here?? Learn to forget your feelings for my sister, for your own good. Don't call her your woman, just think of Artemis as your mother's replacement. And if you are currently feeling awkward with the old woman who is currently the Mom of Calvin Adam.. In my opinion, you should be grateful, “ said Apollo who was quite laid out at the end of his sentence.
Calvin Adam still couldn't accept and punch the flamboyant tree behind him until some crimson flowers fell on his head, “Tell me what else I should be grateful for Pa.”
Wait a few seconds until Apollos decides to unlock one Earth 23 secret where his son is, “Because the old woman is Coronis. The woman I once loved but betrayed me even before you were born.”
The information was quite astonishing and made Asklepios in Calvin Adam's body bristling because in the end the hand he touched and felt there was warmth was the Mother who should not leave him in Chronos 299.
“Why is he here?” calvin Adam asked with a burning sensation in his chest.
“His body burned in Chronos 299, but because he can keep you in his womb then I ask Zeus to give him a chance to live and at the same time the punishment has dared to betray by living on Earth 23.”
“Don't say that..”
“Yes, Asklepios. Mom Delia there Coronis who get punished by marrying Winson who is a bastard. The real punishment is giving birth to a Calvin Adam who also has the jerk attitude of his father. But the sincerity of a mother made Zeus and I decide to forgive Coronis and let you meet, even though he wouldn't notice. As well as enough he took care of his son Calvin Adam who was a jerk, let in the rest of his life he get happiness by seeing a Calvin Adam managed to become a useful person.”
Asklepios nodded in capture of that very important information, “Thank you Pa already told me, making me at least be more appreciative of my closeness with Mom Delia. A second chance to get to know and feel a mother's affection. I'll make him proud of a Calvin Adam who he's taken care of”
