Amnesia Of Love
8. All About the Taste

VAM!! VAM!! VAM!!

The sound of hurried footsteps echoed through every hallway of the hospital. The woman continued to run with a pretty messy appearance no matter the gazes of the surrounding people who were disturbed by her actions let alone the clock had shown at eleven o'clock at night. He then stopped at the door of a nursery with breath gasping from running tired. He opened the door slowly.

THE CKLEKK!!

The open door featured two similar-faced juvenile figures who fell asleep there. One was lying in bed with nassal canulla perched on his nose and infusion in his right hand and one was sleeping next to the bed in a sitting position on a chair with his hands not loosely holding his left hand lying in bed.

A sweet but beautiful sight. The woman was crying in silence and then immediately approached there rubbing the legs lying in a bed covered with a blanket. Then he turned to the other teenager rubbing his back slowly. The sitting teenager was writhing as he felt a swab on his back.

"Mother.."

Mario immediately hugged Aulia tightly and sobbed in his mother's arms. Ja. The woman who had just come was Aulia, the mother of both of them.

Mario is very happy with his mother. Max once said that the most powerful sedative was his mother and Mario strongly agreed with it.

"Mother..Max bun's..Max bun.." isak Mario is still in Aulia's arms.

Aulia understands. Totally understand. For sure Mario is very scared at the moment just like himself he is also afraid. He was afraid that Max would give up and leave them all.

"Shusstss calm down, baby. Mother has already said. Everything must be fine. Max strong son. Your sister is strong and we also have to be strong" Aulia said calmly.

Mario looked up at the face of his mother who looked tired but did not reduce the level of beauty.

"Thank you mother" said Mario.

"Yes equally dear." replied Aulia with a gentle smile.

"Thank you for coming here and leaving your job there" said Mario.

Aulia shook her head.

"There is no job or anything more important than you. You're a priority mom's never gonna replace."

Mario smiled happily. She did know, Aulia had never attached any importance to anything other than the two of them.

"Now Rio's sleeping yes but sleeping on the sofa. Let the mother sleep next to Max." said Aulia.

"But the mother must be tired, better mother.." not finished Mario talking Aulia already cut it.

"Mother wants to sleep next to your sister, so you are now the mother's turn."

Mario nodded obediently then immediately went towards the sofa not far from Max's bed. Then lay his body there. Aulia covered Mario's body with a blanket until his second then gently rubbed Mario's head and kissed him after that Mariopun began to knit dreams.

Aulia then approached her youngest son. He sat beside his youngest son's bed. He never had the heart to see his youngest son like this but fate made him have to accept if his youngest son was special. Aulia rubbed the fingers of the youngest son gently and kissed his hand.

"Max.honey.quickly healed yes son.don't keep getting sick. Max loves mom, dad and sister, right? Hold on, son. Don't surrender. We fought together. There's a lot that Max loves so don't leave us. Mother loves Max very much. Father and brother Rio also loved Max very much. So Max has to be strong and hold on. We want to see you through to adulthood, housekeeping and having children and grandchildren. So again never give up. We will always be there for you, son. To Maxnya mother.hikshiks." Aulia grew sobbing but she tried to dampen her voice. He did not want his youngest son to be disturbed and awakened by his actions.

"Good sleep and good dreams, Mom and don't forget to wake up tomorrow."

Aulia rubbed Max's head slowly and then peeked at Max's head and fell asleep beside Max with her hand holding Max's hand tightly.

The next day Mario sees his phone full of notifications. There were several missed phones and messages that he never opened and this morning his phone again vibrated somehow. Likewise with the twin sister's phone that must have experienced the same thing like it. Fortunately, they use vibrate mode on their phones so they do not disturb anyone in the room. Mario's phone is back. Mariopun saw the name of the caller there. Jonathanlah. She swiped her phone screen towards the green picture.

"Callo.."

The sound of screeches could make him jump in shock. Fortunately, he did not drop his phone.

"Mario!! Why did you just pick up your phone, huh?! Where have you been?! Your sister too, where is she? Where's Max?! I called and sent dozens of messages over and over again but there was no answer. What are you guys doing?! You want to make me die young from worry, huh?!"

jonathan shouted furiously.

Mario rubbed his ear that felt hot. Mario's squealing sound was like an electric shock to him. He sighed.

"hhh.. Why didn't you call home? Even if you call my house, Bi Imah will definitely pick up your phone."

Jonathan remained silent. He blinked his eyes many times and hit his head slowly.

"Ah? You're right too. Why didn't I think that way, huh? hahaha."

Mario rolled his eyes lazily. He was very upset at his father's nephew despite the warmth that spread because he became increasingly convinced that many people love them.

"Hhhh..Why does he have a nephew like you? My family is all smart. Is it because when the division of your brain does not come and immediately born just like that huh? Hmmm.it seems so." joked Mario.

Jonathan's eyes were together. Why his cousin likes to insult him even though he often does the same thing but still he does not accept.

"Moriooooooo!!" jonathan shouted furiously. Maybe if this was in the movie, two red horns were already on his head.

"Don't get angry Jo. I'm just kidding." said Mario chuckling.

"Ishh is not funny. Now quickly tell me where have you been? Why is there no news at all, huh?!" Ask Mario ketus.

"You know what Max is doing now? He was eating but was fed by the mother." said Mario did not connect.

Jonathan scrunched his forehead confused.

"Ckkp. You're this! I asked what, you answered what? Not connect. Aunt Aulia's out of town anyway." Jonathan's upset. Suddenly he heard a familiar voice.

"Yeah! Brother Rio! Who's calling?! Why are you saying no, huh?! Mother's bad sister." Max fights like a child. In this situation Max would be spoiled for his mother.

"It's okay, baby. Kan Max is indeed the mother of bribes. " said Aulia while chuckling.

Max moved his lips five centimeters. The mother did not side with him at all.

"Utuu.utuutu.lucunya big baby brother Rio" said Mario while pulling the mouth and cheeks of his twin sister.

Max glances as Mario lays he's a big baby and plays his cheek. He then brushed off Mario's hand.

"Aww.." ringis Mario as his hand is pushed rough by Max.

"habits. Horror's surfaced." annoyed Max with sharpened eyes. It's not scary, it's adorable for Mario.

"Tock horror Max. Is it that Rio's sister is spooky?" ask Mario to explain.

"It's Rio's brother that the jahil relapse is so abnormal, creepy like Valak!"

"Huh,Valak?! Mother, the evil Max when this handsome mother's son is equated with Valak?" shoot Mario.

Mother only shook her head to see the behavior of her son who was still like a five-year-old child.

"That's why you don't disturb your sister" said the mother.

"Ohhh. Mother is so." annoyed Mario.

"Sense. One and the same." said Max, sticking his tongue out at Mario.

"Ckkp. You little boy." Mario smashed his mouth.

"Rio.." Jonathan's voice began to be heard back on the phone.

"Bun, I'll call you outside for a minute." Mario's permission.

Aulia nodded.

"Big baby shit, sister Rio came out for a while huh."

Max raised his pillow high preparing to throw it towards his brother. Before he finally broke down when his mother's voice intruded on him.

"Yes, baby. Let's finish the food after that take the medicine." persuaded Aulia.

Mario chuckles to see his sister swerving towards him. He went out and closed the door.

"Rio..Max why?" jonathan's voice sounded soft.

Mario breathed his rough breath.

"Max relapsed overnight and was taken to the hospital. I'm sorry we ignored the phone calls and messages from you and Hayden" said Mario.

"What did the doctor say and why did Max relapse? Is Max exhausted? or Max fell or what Yo?" Jonathan's voice was slow but full of worry.

"Mother says Max remembers his past" said Mario.

"What?! How can?!" surprised Jonathan.

"It seems to have something to do with the woman from yesterday."

Jonathan was confused.

"Huh?"

"Bye,Clara. Hey don't just shut up. School is still quiet and you're quiet too, so it's getting quieter Ra. Do not keep thinking. Yesterday it wasn't your fault. He'll be fine, calm down." Cassie said calmly.

Clara shook her head while continuing to walk in the hallway of the school which was still quiet because it was still very early so not too many students had come.

"But it's all my fault Cassie, I should remember that if Max was sick, I'd forced my will. You know his hands are cold and wet. His face was pale too. I'm afraid something happened to her" said Clara Lirih.

Cassie rubbed Clara's back slowly trying to calm down. He no longer knows how to calm Clara, since yesterday Clara continues to blame herself,cassie said it wasn't her fault, but Clara blamed herself so this was all she could do for Clara. On the way to class. They heard the tenth grade one disciple speak.

"Yahhhh our twin friends did not enter." lamented one of the schoolgirls with tears.

"Yes he said Max was sick and was taken to the hospital shortly after school yesterday" another student said.

" What's Max sick?" ask the students to look in the eyes.

"Don't know. I hope he's okay. C'mon quickly. We'll come early in the morning for picket duty. Let's hurry."

After the students left. Clara and Cassie were silent. Cassie turned to look at Clara who bit her lip.

"I'm sorry Max.it's my fault.."

Clareapun went opposite to the direction of his class.

"Yeah! Clara where are you going?" Call Cassie in a panic and catch up with Clara.

Clara ran and locked herself in the bathroom.

"It's all your fault M. Why should you be present if to go. hikshiks.."

"Why.." Clara hit him on the head repeatedly with tears already pouring down.

"Why M? Wh why? Why should there be love if someone gets hurt..? hykshiks."

"I hate you..

SERIATE..
