The hearts of parents who are not broken, sad and hurt when they have to accept the fact that the child has a mental disorder. Larisa who used to be beautiful, cheerful and full of spirit is now turning 360 degrees. Skinny, pale, lethargic, blank stares and sometimes crying while laughing or raging like a doormat. But when he regained consciousness, he would act normally like nothing had happened to him.
It's been three months Larisa's been locked up in the house. All the windows and doors were lined with iron bars. Their house is now turned into a luxurious prison to keep the princess from doing things that could endanger her life. All objects that feel dangerous have been removed according to the advice of psychologists.
Today Endra and his wife will deliver Larisa to the RSJ according to Pak Gino's recommendation yesterday.
“Where are we going, Mah?” Weak but still heard by Davira. Larisa's view leads out the car window.
“We're going to the Hospital, baby.”
“Who is sick, Mah?”
Davira glanced at her husband who was sitting on the front bench.
“And you have no appetite so we want to check all of you for the same appetite-boosting drugs, Doctor, yes,” explained Endra staring at the princess.
Larisa nodded weakly. Davira hugged her daughter, and she raised her head to hold back the puddles of tears from falling down her cheeks. Until in front of RSJ the three of them stepped into the hallway to the doctor's room to be found.
“Mah, what Hospital is this?” ask Larisa.
“Ya, Regular Hospital, baby. Ayok, his doctor has been waiting for us,” invites Davira to guide his daughter.
Larisa looked around, but she realized that this was not an ordinary hospital as the mother said. Most patients look like crazy people he meets on the street. The hospital room is not like a hospital in general. Here all the doors are made of iron trellis just like in his house. The yard was lined with barbed wire and the nurse here seemed to be watching the patient instead of caring like in other hospitals.
Suddenly a patient was screaming hysterically for fighting over a toy with his friend. The nurses began to hold her hands and feet and tried to inject sedatives.
“Pah, is this good for Larisa?” whispered Davira.
“We'd better hurry to the doctor's room, Mah. Before Larisa saw more and she realized,” replied Endra.
“Good morning, Mr and Ibuk.” Doctor Ningsih as the head of the RSJ welcomed their arrival well. Who does not know Endra is a famous businessman in this city.
“Again, Doc,” reply them.
“Please sit!”
They sat on the sofa opposite each other.
“I think Mr. Gino has explained our arrival here. So, I no longer need to give a description?” Endra said straight to the point.
The 53-year-old mental doctor smiled broadly. "Previous, my name is Ningsih. Can be called, Doctor Nining."
Endra and Davira just smiled knots in return. Their slightly tense facial features made the Doctor understand why Endra and Davira were less than friendly with him. Then he turned to look at Larisa who was still scanning her study. “Hai, your name, Larisa, yes?”
Larisa just nodded. “Mah, this is not an ordinary hospital. No tools - tools for checking.”
“This office name, dear. If we want to check, we move rooms. You want?”
“Larisa want to be checked?” Davira tries to persuade the princess.
She seemed hesitant but the girl agreed. They're heading for another room. Whether the examination like what Doctor Ningsih will do, Larissa began to feel uncomfortable. Accidentally passing through the nursery he saw the patient was already sound asleep on the mattress but his hands and feet were handcuffed on the side of the bed.
“This isn't an ordinary Hospital, is it, Mah?” dismayingly.
“This is the hospital we used to visit, baby,” Davira replied.
“This is a Mental Hospital right?!"
"No, baby."
"Mama, lie! This is indeed a Mental Hospital. Mama, do you think I'm crazy?”
“Darling, you're here just to do a check. Not that the people who seek treatment here are crazy,” explained Doctor Ningsih.
“Risa, baby, Mama and Papa love you, so we're here to get well,” said Endra.
“Tell them to let me go if it is, Papa, Mama loves me.”
Davira could only cry seeing the princess being between the nurse and the nurse. Regretted that he came here but he could not do anything for his recovery.
“Gak pa-pa, Lisa. The doctor just wants to talk to both of you,” refer Ningsih again.
“You're evil, you think I'm crazy. Though I am your son, why did you bring me here?” Larisa's voice rising in strength can no longer be controlled by the sisters and nurses who hold.
Larisa continues to fight and rebel in order to escape from the people who hold her. He can no longer be controlled emotions have mastered making him scream hysterically swearing at both parents. Successfully off Larisa ran as hard as she could, she had to run away she thought. I don't want to live here with those crazy people.
Some of the sisters and nurses were chasing Larisa so as not to run into the streets they thought and it could be dangerous. Right in front of the gate of Larisa Hospital hit the body of a man who had just got out of his car and was about to enter.
Brak ...
“Please, help me.Bring me away from here, I don't want to stay here, I'm not crazy,” please give me a cue.
“Hey, relax. What's up, you why?” The man who was hit earlier held Larisa's shoulder.
“I'm not crazy, I don't want to be treated like a patient by them.” Larisa pointed at the people who were behind.
Abista saw her mother and Larisa's parents running to get closer. He also began to understand it seems like the girl in his arms is the same as the patients he handled so far.
“Please, I, I am not crazy,” muttered Larisa in her tears.
“Oke, I'll help you. But can you calm down?”
Larisa shook her head with a tense and anxious face.
“If you are not calm, I will hand you over to them,” reply Abi pointed at the nurse and nurse with her chin.
“Iya, yes, I will be quiet.”
“You won't run again? Won't you be hysterical again?”
Larisa shook her head and nodded her head.
“Then come with me,” take Abi gently.
“Where?” hold Larisa.
“If you want me to help, come and trust me,” firmly look into the eyes of the girl.
“But I don't want to go in there again.”
“Ada me. I won't let anyone else get close to you.”
“Really?”
“Believe in me!”
