William and Arthur decide to wait for a moment in front of the room, planning to enter after the doctor finishes checking on Oskar. Not long after, Alexa who got a phone call from Arthur immediately approached the two. In his hand, there are three glasses of drinks that Alexa carries for whom.
"William, are you coming too?" greet Alexa.
"Eum, I drove Arthur and I saw Oskar" replied William.
"Sorry, trouble you!" said Alexa.
"No problem!" answer William.
William and Arthur, both of them already look lackey and serious. Not as noisy as when they were in the car.
"This is for you." Alexa gave William a cup of coffee. It looks like a smile, but there is sadness that is implied behind his smile.
"Thank you!" William immediately opened the coffee cover and drank it, he happened to be thirsty so not hesitant anymore.
Meanwhile, William sees Alexa whispering something into Arthur's ear then points to one of the different drinks. Arthur seemed to nod, as if he understood the secret instructions Alexa whispered just for him.
"Thank you!" alexa hugged her husband in front of William.
Arthur returned his embrace, not forgetting to land a kiss on Alexa's forehead.
"All right, I'll go first!" pamit Alexa's.
"Don't push yourself too much!" pinta Arthur's.
"I understand!" alexa then left.
Speaking of Alexa, that beautiful woman is really cool. He refuses to stop working even though Arthur asks for it. In fact, without Alexa work, their lives are very guaranteed. Right after Alexa's departure, a doctor and a nurse who was inside also came out. Arthur and William rush in after smiling for both.
"You guys coming?" greet Joanna when she sees her two guests. That tired face, William and Arthur could see it.
Arthur soon approached Joanna who was still standing carrying Oskar in his arms. Putting one cup of coffee is also a drink that seems to be deliberately bought Alexa to give to Joanna. While on the other hand William just kept quiet, looking and following Arthur from behind because he was not as familiar as Joanna.
"It's late, why bother coming here?" ask Joanna.
"What are you talking about, we don't bother at all" replied Arthur.
"What did the doctor say?" asked William who was also near Joanna. Seeing Oskar still hiding in his mother's arms.
"Still the same as before" replied Joanna. Forcing a smile even though it is actually difficult. William understood the point, that there was no progress. And finding a donor soon is the only way out.
"You sit down!" joanna invited Arthur and William to sit down.
"Will, you sit down you must be tired from driving" Arthur asked.
"I'll sit down if I want to" William refused.
"Jo, give Oskar to me!" pinta Arthur's.
"Don't, she'll cry again later" Joanna refused.
"We haven't tried it yet. Here give it to me, you must be tired, right?" force Arthur.
"Arthur, I'm used to it. You two must be tired from all day's work."
"Jo, I said give it to me!" force Arthur.
"But,-"
"I told you I'm not tired" forced Arthur again. Without wasting any time, Arthur grabs Oskar. But it seemed they had to be disappointed because again Oskar moved quickly by holding Joanna, fearing her mother would leave. Very fast, but also very weak.
"Oskar, how are you?" greet William with a faint smile. His hand touched the boy's head and ruffled his hair.
"Xiao O, playing plane-treatment with Uncle Arthur yuk?" persuade Arthur.
Oskar remained silent, but saw Arthur and William in turns. Not saying anything, nor smiling as usual.
"Mommy." That was the only word that came out of his mouth. Then look for a comfortable place in Joanna's arms.
"She'll be in a minute" Arthur insisted.
"Xiao O, would you like a fat uncle?" once again, Arthur repeated his question by thrusting out both hands.
Oskar still didn't budge, but Arthur didn't lose his mind" Xiao O, Uncle William wanted to play Xiao O. Later he cried," he persuaded again.
William who was suddenly called turned his head towards Arthur. His hand was ready to hit him. Don't tell me he'll be forced to cry if Oskar still refuses. But it seems William must be relieved, because Oskar who was initially silent finally nodded his head and welcomed Arthur's hand.
Now, Oskar has moved from the arms of Joanna to the arms of Arthur. Rubbing his eyes that seemed to be very heavy, then hugging Arthur by wrapping his infused hand around Arthur's neck. William can barely believe what he sees, but Arthur looks really cool and gentlemanly.
"Jo, are you okay?" william asked after Arthur went the other way.
"I'm okay?" answer Joanna. A little awkward, but trying to be mediocre.
"That's, Louise's been very busy lately,-"
"Can't you talk about it?" cut Joanna down and sit on the couch.
"Sorry!" william answered quickly.
Again, Joanna reviewed the forced smile once again that made William feel even more guilty.
"Xiao O, don't say hello to Uncle William? He came all the way here to see Oskar loh," Arthur ordered as William approached them.
Once again, William was amazed. Because Oskar according to what Arthur said, greeting him complete with a thin smile, sounds very weak but makes William touched, "Uncle Will?"
Just two words but it made William very happy and touched Oskar's cheek.
"Xiao O, why are you so picky. You haven't greeted your other uncle yet" whined Arthur. Complaints over Oskar's unfair treatment.
"Uncle Arthur?" sapa Oskar again is still complete with his sweet smile that expands.
"Well, so new right. Oh yes, uncle wants to collect wages for changing Xiao O's diaper as a child. Come here, give me the pay!" continued Arthur.
William doesn't understand what Arthur means but Arthur is seen thrusting his cheek at Oskar. Oskar held Arthur's face, then kissed him repeatedly without hesitation.
"Smart kid!" praise Arthur.
William smiled, not expecting Arthur to be able to persuade the child to this extent.
"Auch!" arthur shouted suddenly pretending to be in pain in front of Oskar.
"Uncle Arthur is sick?" ask Oskar slowly.
"Xiao O, uncle's waist hurts, can we sit for a while?" ask Arthur.
Oskar did not say anything, but his head nodded quickly. Arthur immediately takes Oskar to his bed, puts him to sit down but Oskar continues to hold Arthur's shirt. It seemed like he did not want to be released from someone's embrace.
"There are important things that uncle wants to convey to mommy. Oskar played with Uncle Will?" arthur's permission is gentle. Pinched his cheek and kissed him.
Without waiting any longer, Arthur pulls William and encourages him to sit on the bed. Then he lifted Oskar up and put him in William's lap. William was stunned, because Oskar not only did not refuse but also hugged and leaned his head in search of a comfortable place in his stomach. Seeing that, Arthur gives William the code to pat Oskar on the back and give him a hug.
Seeing that Oskar was getting comfortable with William, Arthur immediately approached Joanna who was sitting on the sofa and giving a glass of drink.
"Sum up while it's warm!" arthur orders him to hand over a glass of the drink he put on the table.
Unsuspecting, Joanna immediately drank it up to half. Then put it back on the table but Arthur asked him to spend it all.
Joanna who did not know Alexa had added sleeping pills back to drink until it was not left.
"Rest comfortably, I'll take care of Xiao O" Arthur said as he picked up a glass from Joanna's hand.
Joanna nodded again, and Arthur went to the bathroom to wash the old glass before throwing it into the recycling bin.
