"Are you learning well?" He asked his son.
His question brought the boys attention towards the door. Little Superglue put on a big bright smile while holding up his paper. "Look, I can write my name! Next I'm going to write a letter to mommy."
Hearing his son wanting to write a letter to his wife makes Mua Kong feel complicated. He finally brought his son's mother home but she does not remember his son or anyone. He knew how much his son misses her, the last year, his son live day by day by always staring at her portrait and go to bed every night hugging a piece of her clothes. How do you explain to a four years old that their mother does not remember them due to a memory loss illness?
Mua Kong slowly took steps towards the boys, pulled a chair and sat down on the chair. He lifted his son over onto his laps while looking at the name his son doodled. "Daddy has something to tell you two."
Pao Hua thought Mua Kong acted a little weird, he put down his ink pen and gave his attention to Mua Kong.
"What is it daddy?" Little Superglue asked as he lifted his head up to look at his daddy.
"Listen to daddy carefully…" Mua Kong paused and took a slow deep breath before proceeding.
"Daddy found your mommy… but… She is sick right now. So, she does not remember you, Uncle Pao Hua or daddy."
Hearing the word sick made Pao Hua felt sick to his stomach, he thought Hli Ja caught a serious illness. His mouth trembled about to ask how sick she is but Mua Kong knew he misunderstood. He wanted to explain in ways that his son would understand but Pao Hua took the message completely wrong. So Mua Kong quickly corrected himself to Pao Hua.
"Your sister was. .h.i.t in the head and she lost her memory as a result of injury to the brain. She may gain her memories later or she may not ever. Other than that, she's healthy and fine."
Little Superglue didn't comprehend the last part his father explained to his uncle. All he knew was, mommy is back but mommy is sick. He tried to get off his father's lap and rush over but Mua Kong held him tightly doesn't allow him to leave. He struggled, "Daddy, let me down, I want to go see mommy."
Mua Kong glanced at his son, "Don't interrupt mommy, she's taking a bath right now. Wait til later."
"No daddy. I want to see my mommy right now." Little Superglue turned around staring at his father with his teary pitiful big round eyes.
"You can wait. Mommy needs a break to take a bath. We all can go see her later." Mua Kong explained.
"I can't wait daddy. I waited for a very long, long time." Little Superglue defended his reason to go see his mommy and about to bawl his heart out. He is feeling very emotional having been separated from his favorite person. He's been trying to be strong and be a big boy for a whole year just so that his mommy would come back. Now that she is back, why can't he see her right away?
"Then I want to go take a bath with mommy right now." Little Superglue retorted.
"Hue Houa!" Pao Hua called his name in a stern voice. Pao Hua doesn't say his nephew's name often unless he's dead serious.
Little Superglue shrieked when he heard his uncle called his name. He looked down and unwillingly comply.
Mua Kong felt bad that he was not around when his son was born and when his son finally appeared before him, his son was motherless so he usually always gives in and spoiled his son whenever he is home. This has caused Little Superglue to not listen to him most of the time. The only person who is stern with him is Uncle Pao Hua.
Pao Hua was stern with Little Superglue when Hli Ja was around before Mua Kong came into the picture. But Pao Hua plays with him the most too so even though Little Superglue doesn't listen to both his parents, he always listens to his uncle. His uncle loves him and disciplined him when necessary while his parents tried to make up for the loss of their partner causing him to be a little spoiled.
Mua Kong had left and told them that he will come get them. He walked out to have his order the guards to tighten their security around the palace.
The next hour is the longest for both Pao Hua and Little Superglue. Pao Hua is a little older and is more composed whereas Little Superglue was antsy, couldn't sit still.
After Mua Kong left, Pao Hua decided to explain some more of what Mua Kong said earlier to Little Superglue because he felt like his nephew didn't understand.
