“Well, that too.” He nodded. “I’ll be here with you.”
I think the child wanted to see him too when he woke up.
At that point I saw the child lying in the hospital bed being pushed into the operating room by several nurses.
“Uncle Joe, you came to see me.” She looked at Joe smiling happily.
“Yes, baby, you must be brave, you know. Uncle and mother will be waiting for you when you get out.”
She nodded. “Okay.” Then he looked back at me, “Mama, you do not have to worry, I am not scared at all.”
At that moment, the little girl is still thinking about comforting me, and my tears suddenly fall down again. Fortunately, I was able to fight back.
“OK, your mother promises you that.”
After saying a few words, the nurse said it was time and pushed her inside.
“The family members are waiting outside.”
A wall in front of me is not heavy, but it separates my thoughts. Outside it’s my worry and fear, and inside it’s my anticipation.
Joe has comforted me to take it easy, but now I really can not listen. I am pacing back and forth here.
After a long time, the operating room door opened and Dr. Lance came out.
“Lance, how is my child?”
“An emergency blood transfusion is needed. The same blood type in the hospital is not enough. The child is AB blood. Which one of you has the same blood type as her?”
“I have type A blood.” I said nervously.
Joe’s blood type does not match either. Now the situation is very critical. If there is no way to transfuse blood in time, the consequences will be unimaginable.
“It’s a bit difficult now.” Lance sighed.
At that moment, a man came my way, scaring me. I looked away anxiously, not wanting to see him and praying inwardly that he would not see me either.
Gavin perspective
I had been very upset since I had scolded Auree that night.
When I saw that she never came back to apologize to me, I was furious and called her to leave that place.
I did not expect her to actually decide to leave like that, and she would not even explain it to me.
If she had told me, I would have forgiven her even without words.
Why did she do this to me? Is it because I can not compare myself to this man?
After all, this person is the biological father of her child.
Just yesterday, I heard the news that she fainted at the airport and my heart hurt at that moment. I had to go to her, but after thinking about it, I felt I could not throw in the towel, so I resisted not going.
But what I did not expect was that Aure had already met with Lance and promised to help her daughter with the surgery.
I do not want to stop him from saving people. The kid is cute and I like her a lot. I want Aure to admit her mistake.
“Lance, you can not operate on Aure’s daughter.”
“Why?”
“Because that woman insulted me.” I was unequivocal and said it directly.
Lance did not care, “This is between you adults. The child is innocent. ”
“I am not refusing to save the child. I just want her to admit her mistake to me. If she comes to me, I am sure I’ll agree.”
“That’s your business. I can not say anything, but I am a doctor. I can not fool around with you. Since you can not forget her words so easily, you’d better go find her yourself.”
Later, no matter what I said, Lance simply refused to help me.
I had no choice but to go to the hospital myself today, and I just saw Aure waiting outside the operating room with the man.
“Lance, I have to tell you something. You can not have the surgery. Everyone’s going to do it. You are my friend. You can not.”
When he saw me, he did not say those words like he had before. Instead, he pulled me directly to him and said to the nurse, “His blood type matches, draw his blood.”
Before I could respond, I was pushed right in by him, “Hey, I am not here to give blood.”
He ignored my words and comforted Aure.
After he drew my blood, I glared at him angrily, “What the hell are you doing? Why did you push me to do this?”
“No way, patients need to donate blood.”
“Then go to their birth parents. What do you mean you are pushing me?”
I have never been a nosy person. As for Aure, if she asks, I’ll definitely say yes.
“Your blood match, but the man does not. I’ll go to the operating room.”
Do not match?
I was lost in thought. Lance meant the man was not the child’s biological father, and I…
Is this just a coincidence?
Aure looked over as well. I saw a certain shyness in her eyes. I gave her a look, turned around, and walked straight away.
In this matter I was very suspicious, in the evening I called Lance.
“Why? What can I do for you if you call me so late?”
“Check one thing for me.”
“How can I help you find something out?”
“I want you to take a paternity test for the child of me and Aure.”
I was very tense and waited for the results. If the child is really mine, what should I tell Aure? I should ask her why she did not tell me?
That evening, Lance came with the hotel manager.
Not far away, the two of them whispered something and looked surprised.
I asked, “What are you two doing?”
The two turned in turn, “Nothing.”
I was not in the mood to care about these things, so I asked Lance directly, “Did you come out with the results?”
He said disapprovingly.
“How?” I asked with great anticipation.
He showed a particularly disappointed look on his face and told me in a regretful tone, “Unfortunately, the results show that you are not a father-daughter relationship.”
I was immediately in a bad mood.
This child is not mine!
It’s not this man’s, who else’s, and how many men Aure has, I do not know.
I sat down bored. At that moment, two people handed me a thing, “This, see for yourself.”
I thought to myself, these two people are deliberately trying to stimulate me. Since they are not my daughters, there is no need to see them. I grabbed them, tore them into pieces and threw them out.
“Well, you are not watching it. It has nothing to do with us.”
I thought they were both really confused, so I kicked them right out.
I lay in bed thinking, and I felt a terrible headache coming on. Before I knew it, I was asleep.
The next day I got up, got ready, and suddenly wanted to go to the hospital.
I told myself that I just wanted to visit the kids and that it had nothing to do with Aure.
The kids are so cute and innocent, I just have to see them.
I bought some extra fruit and came to the hospital to see their ward.
When I got to her ward, I found that she was the only one sitting in the hospital bed, which was boring.
When I walked in, she looked over at me and said in disgust, “You are a bad uncle.”
I remember the last time I was at her house, I had some conflicts with Aure. When she saw me hurting her mother, she thought I was a bad person.
Me, I was not angry and smiled at him, “Uncle is not a bad person.”
“You are. I hate you and I do not want to see you.”
I pulled up a chair and sat in front of her, “Do not be mad, the little princess is not cute when she’s mad. uncle bought you a lot of fruit. Which ones do you want to eat?”
“I do not want your stuff.”
“Oh.” I replied with great interest, “In that case, I’ll eat them myself.”
I took an apple in my hand, began to peel it, cut it into small pieces and handed it to her. She took her leave with a proud face. I smiled softly, took a piece and popped it in my mouth, “This is delicious.”
She glanced at me, her eyes filled with thoughts of food.
“If you do not want it, I’ll eat it all.”
Now she could not help herself and stopped me, “I’ll eat one.”
I lifted my mouth slightly, picked up a small piece and fed it to her mouth.
She nodded affectionately and looked appreciative, “Yummy.”
“Eat more, i.”
She ate with relish, piece by piece, completely forgetting the dissatisfaction of a moment ago.
I secretly rejoiced in my heart. Soon she was eating a whole apple and touching her belly contentedly. I smiled.
At that moment, she suddenly asked me, “Uncle, your apples are so sweet, you shall not be a bad person?”
I smiled gently, this child is really innocent and adorable, and she can easily change her mind about a person because of the sweetness of an apple. If that’s the case, there will not be any bad people in the world.
I looked at her seriously, ”Of course, I am not a bad person. Back then, my uncle had some contradictions with your mother before arguing. I really did something wrong and scared you. My uncle apologized to you.”
She smiled and shook her head, “It’s okay uncle, my mother said if you can correct your mistakes, you’ll still be a good boy.”
I touched her head indulgently.
Not long after our harmonious time, Aure walked in. When she saw me, her bright smile suddenly stiffened, “What are you doing here?”
I stood up and looked at her, “I came to see the kids so you do not get me wrong.”
I noticed a small trance in her eyes, but I did not give up asking her.
“Do you have anything else? If nothing else, please go back for now, the child needs to rest.”
I choked and she threw me out?
Before I could answer, the little baby pulled at her clothes and said softly, “Mama, do not drive the uncle, okay? He’s not a bad person.”
Aure looked at the child in shock, obviously wondering why the child’s attitude towards me had changed so much in a short time.
I did not think carefully about how to face her. I do not think I should face her first.
“It suddenly occurred to me that I had something else to do, so I went first.”
I turned , and the child’s voice came, “Uncle, when are you coming to see me?”
“Soon.”
After leaving the hospital, I feel much better. A problem that seemed to plague me for so long has finally been solved.
In fact, this child is so cute that if I take it out, others will think it’s my child.
