Elouise is already on the operating table, the doctor has injected dope. Just waiting for the drug to react. While Alan, he also entered the operating room. Because he wanted to say something to his son.
"El remember, papa has already occupied your wishes. You also have to keep your promise. Well accept your new kidney, so you can be like Alexix. You're going to school, meet new friends. Eat whatever you want, drink as much as you want. And ...,"
"Papa, why the apron? Yes, El will wake up again. Papa ni, I'd like to wake up." Upset Elouise.
Alan smiled, his son was very brave. He knew that, his hand was holding his son's hand to give strength.
"Papa." Calling Elouise made Alan refocus on seeing her.
"And make mama nanis, mama's glasses," said Elouise with a sad look.
Alan was silent, he could not agree with what Elouise said. Instead, he often made Azalea cry. She was afraid that she would disappoint her son.
"Dear daddy mama nda?" Ask Elouise. His gaze started to spoon, it seemed like the medicine was about to react.
Alan did not reply, he himself was confused by his feelings. How could he answer Elouise's question.
"Why do you want to answer? Belalti papa nda kayang mama?" Ask Elouise.
"Ehm, papa dear mama. Don't ask me again, sleep." Pinta Alan while wiping her son's forehead to quickly fall asleep.
Elouise closed her eyes, Alan thought the dope was already working. But his guess is wrong. Elouise opened her eyes again, and looked at Alan with a different look than usual.
"Papa, mama maki maihi. Mama loves cama papa, mama pellah says it's cama El." After saying that, Elouise did not respond anymore. The dope worked, making him lose his consciousness.
Alan was silent, he pegged for a moment. Elouise's words, made her heart flutter. Alan was confused by his own feelings, why he was so happy to know that Azalea still loved him.
"Sir, we'll be operating immediately." Reprimanded Doctor Aryan while approaching Alan.
Alan nodded, he looked at Doctor Aryan with a fixed gaze.
"Please, do what's best for him. Whatever it costs, I will pay. I just want to see my son recover like he did before he got sick. I want to knit moments with him, as Elouise not Alexix. I want to prove to her, if her papa loves her so much" Lirih Alan cupped her hands together.
Doctor Aryan nodded, "Elouise is also like my own son, much less that my son's kidney will soon be inside his body. We're both fighting, Elouise is a great kid." Doctor Aryan.
Alan nodded, he was sure his son was a great child. His son survived until this moment. After saying about his heart, Alan rushed out. Letting medics handle his son.
Cklek!
Seeing Alan coming out of the operating room, Azalea came closer. He wanted to ask about Elouise.
"Hows it? Elouise is still scared?" Azalea asked worriedly.
"The anesthetic has worked, the doctor began to perform acts of oepration." Answer Alan.
Azalea felt it was not the answer to her question, she wanted to go back to asking. However, his lips felt heavy to speak again.
"Mama, Lekci lapel. Dali hasn't eaten yet!" Alexix exclaimed, his stomach was thrashing to be filled.
Alan looked at his son for a moment, then turned to look at Kendrick who was playing his phone.
"Kendrick!" Call Alan.
"Yes sir!" Kendrick looked at Alan.
Alexix couldn't take it, wanted to eat with his mom. Even the papa told him to go with Kendrick, how could he not be upset?
"money ...."
"Let me Transfer." Alan's voice cut out Kendrick's words quickly.
Kendrick nodded, he turned to look at Alexix. The boy looked at the father unfriendly.
"Master, come on" Take Kendrick.
"Luckily again lapel, if nda .. nda want Lekci pelgi without mama." Alexix grumbled as he approached Kendrick who was waiting for him.
After Alexix and Kendrick left, Alan sat next to Azalea in the waiting chair. Both of them were silent, they were busy with their own thoughts.
Azalea felt anxious, her hands squeezing each other. In his heart, he hoped that the operation that Elouise underwent would be smooth. So, after this Elouise will be able to return to normal.
"Azalea .. I want to ask you about Elouise's childhood." Alan asked without looking at Azalea.
Azalea glanced at Alan at a glance, she looked back towards the door of the operating room. Memories, back to remember the story of Elouise as a child.
"Elouise, he's a cheerful and active boy. Since the baby, she's been sensitive to my feelings. He couldn't see me crying, and he always didn't want to stay. The first word he said was papa, not mama. I was able to video it. Unfortunately, the video no longer exists."
"When he was three, he started asking about his papa. He asked...What does El have papa? What is your dear El? El wants to see papa's picture, papa what else?"
Azale took a deep breath, and exhaled it slowly. Really, his chest felt tight when he recalled Elouise's childhood.
"Elouise was very happy with the car, I always bought it. However, after he was declared ill. Our lives are changing, let alone buying toys. For Elouise's treatment alone I had to sell my house, the business I built was also bankrupt. Until, our finances thinned and decided to return to the big city."
"I thought, Elouise will find it hard to adapt to our new life. However, Elouise was quick to adapt. He never asked for things I couldn't do for him. He's withholding his wish so as not to make me sad."
Azalea held back her tears that were about to come down, her lips smiling faintly as she went back to telling about her life with her son. While Alan, his heart was touched after hearing the life of his son.
"Did you know? Elouise once told me that she wanted to have friends. He wants to go to school like any other child. However, again due to the limited money I made. Elouise had to study at home with me."
"Did Elouise ever tantrum when her wish was not fulfilled?" Ask Alan. Remember, if Alexix always tantrums when his desire is not found.
Azalea shook her head, she touched the corner of her watery eyes. "No, Elouise always harbored her feelings. I need to be more sensitive to know about his wishes." replied Azalea.
Alan compared Elouise and Alexix. Elouise, getting complete affection even if only from a mother. While Alexix, he always ignores his son for busy work reasons, so Alexix grows up without a upbringing from him making his son have a hard personality.
"As long as Alexix is with me, I pay attention to all his attitudes. He shows an attitude if no one loves him. I don't want to blame you, I know you're busy. But can you take an hour to hear his heart? Children, they will grow up faster, lest you lose their moment of growth."
Degh!!
Alan was silent, Azalea's words made him realize and feel guilty for Alexix.
"You know why I gave Reagan a chance?" Alan turned to look at Azalea with a complicated gaze. So did Azalea who looked at Alan with her teary eyes.
"Because I was thinking, my son needs a father figure like his. Not like you,"
Degh!!
