The Light of Love (Children of Genius)
Chapter 8. Get Angry

The next day, Isabella came with a face filled with anger. He's looking for Ella and Reo in a planting hospital play. With trembling hands, he approached them with a gaze full of anger.

"Ella," he said in a trembling voice, holding back anger.

"You .. You really have no right to hide Roberto from me."

Ella was surprised and anxious to see Isabella's angry facial expression, let alone the name of Roberto.

"Isabella, I don't understand what you're trying to say. What's up?" asked Ella curiously to know.

Isabella laughed hatefully, thinking that she had planned something clandestinely. Especially with Reo, a tool that can bind Roberto.

"Hehhh? It's more than privacy. You hid his son's whereabouts all along and made me look stupid, after Roberto found out everything, huh?!"

Reo who was beside Ella stared with eyes filled with confusion and fear. He did not understand why there was so much anger inside Isabella's face.

Isabella chased after him again by saying, "You know, now I understand why you guys keep protecting this kid. You want to sacrifice me, for your relationship! Aye, right?" isabella shouted, not looking at the current situation and condition that was in the hospital garden.

Ella tried to explain carefully, "Isabella, it's not about "sacrificing" or anything. We just want to give Reo a decent chance at life."

Isabella threw a sharp glance at Reo, thinking that there was a big change in Roberto after the recent arrivals of Ella and Reo.

"A decent opportunity? But you deserve a chance yourself? I want you to leave as soon as you get what you want!"

Ella tried to maintain her composure, hoping that the situation would not get worse. He doesn't want Reo, to come to think no.

"We didn't mean to hurt anyone, didn't want to take Roberto either. What happened between us is the past, and now our priority is Reo."

Isabella took a deep breath, her face full of anger. For all you know, Ella tried to bring Reo closer to her lover, Roberto.

"I will not let you be satisfied, by getting what you want. You guys, you better get going!"

After speaking with the intention of expelling, Isabella left just like that. He doesn't care about Ella or Reo's feelings.

Ella and Reo are left in a situation filled with uncertainty and tension. Isabella is only ambitious to teach the two of them a lesson, and slowly but surely, Isabella only wants the two of them to leave Roberto's life soon.

"Reo, honey, there's something you want to talk about. Remember, not long you will recover and can leave this hospital. We, back to our old house. Reo wants to, right?" throne of Ella, slow down.

"Yes, Ma."

Ella, smiling faintly at her son's answer. He does not need to talk much because it will add anxiety to Reo, and he does not want if Reo finally thinks a lot.

"That's right, Reo. We'll go home, and live together as happily as yesterday."

"Did Roberto come?" asked Reo, innocently.

"No, honey." Ella, answer quickly.

The woman, of course, did not want to give great hope to Reo. Moreover, lately, Reo and Roberto are getting closer like a child and father.

Although he is happy, Ella, who has just found out that Roberto has a lover, does not want to ruin their relationship. Moreover, the reason for coming to this city was because of Reo, all for the sake of Reo's health and safety alone.

"You, you didn't do anything wrong, honey. Some people may have incorrect opinions or information about us. And sometimes, people can feel anxious or angry when there's something they don't understand."

"But why don't they like us?"

Question after question was asked by Reo, and to answer it, Ella needed to think a lot so that the answer could be accepted by her son who was quite critical.

"Some people can feel anxious or threatened by different things. Maybe they don't know about us very well, and they can feel scared or suspicious. But you know, we have a lot of friends and family who love us, don't you?"

With her words spoken slowly and carefully, Ella hoped that her son would not return to ask her questions.

But it turns out Ella's wish didn't materialize. Reo, again and again asked another question, which made Ella let out a long sigh with the intention of calming down.

"Yes, Reo knows. But Reo was still feeling sad, and why was Auntie angry?"

"Hemmm ... That's normal, honey. Sometimes, we can feel sad or confused when there is a problem. But we're gonna get through this together. The important thing is, Reo stays with Mama, supporting each other."

But Reo, was not satisfied with just such an answer. He kept asking questions again and again, which was more critical.

"What can we do, Ma?"

"We will talk to people we trust, like doctors and our friends in the hospital. For example, the sisters who had been taking care of Reo. They'll help us explain what really happened to us, to people."

Although not fully understood, Reo still bothers to hear the answers and explanations given by his mother.

"Reo, believe in, Mama."

"Yes, Honey. Together, we will face this problem and you can heal and grow strong. And we'll always be together."

Reo nodded, and no longer wondered. But it seemed to be only temporary, because soon he asked the question again.

"Then, when do we go, Ma?"

"Emhhh, we wait for the decision of the doctor first, huh? If we're allowed to go home tomorrow, we'll go home tomorrow. But if the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow."

Chief Reo, nod back. The child seemed to understand the meaning of his mother's words, with the problems faced as well. But he doesn't fully understand.

"We, back in the room, yuk!"

"Yes, Ma."

Ella, asking her son to return to her room, could rest for a while after a walk in the hospital playground.

Inwardly, the woman hoped that Isabella could hold herself back and no longer come to the hospital with emotions.

'I, will quickly leave once Reo recovers. You, calm down Isabella. I, never thought to go back to Roberto, as you alleged.'

Ella, could only speak inwardly, as it was impossible to talk about this with her son. As much as possible, he will think about it himself by making decisions that he thinks are much better.
