31 I Need Someone By My Side (1/2)
”Ma'am can I help you calming him down?” he ask politely. His forehead already sweating.
Atfirst, she's a bit hesitate. But the baby keep crying without any hint to stop. She then pass the baby to him.
Holding the baby, he smile and cooing the baby.
”Hey there.. don't cry don't cry.. where did you feel uneasy? On your stomach?”
He rub the baby's stomach gently as he sway his body a bit.
”Or on your chest?” he move his hand to the chest. The baby start to slow his voice a bit.
Support his head gently, he facing the baby to his chest and rub his back gently.
Not long after, the baby burp with a quite loud and he stop crying after that and fall asleep.
Within just 5 minutes, he manage to make the baby sleep.
He handed over the baby to his mother back.
”Maybe you can put some essential oil on his stomach or try infant massage after he drink. It will at least help you when facing baby's colic.” he said politely to the mother as the mother nod to him.
The four of them almost drop their jaw seeing how Alan can easily calm the baby.
Aslan pouted even more. He was jealous obviously.
”Seriously, man! You really should get the medal.” Joe almost shouted.
”Damn good, dude, you really nail it!” Nigel said as he patted his shoulder.
”Even with us as a doctor, sometimes take more than 5 minutes to calm a baby who had a colic symptom.” Joe said again.
Chase lifting up his eyebrow.
”I can see how bright Hazel future is..” he said and smiled meaningfully.
”Almost everything you can do it. What things that you can't do Alan? It's so hard to figure it out, what are you before you lost your memory. It's look like you perfect on everything.” Nigel said. They walk to the bench and sit together at the park in front the mall.
”I feel like deep down inside me telling me that there is only one that I can't do and I can't get even if I pull it harder. But, I don't know what is that thing is.”
”Love?” Chase said and suddenly his heart feel a bit uneasy.
”Maybe yes.. maybe no..”
”Hmm.. I bet you're good at flirting. Oh wait, you don't even have to do that. They come to you without you flirt to them first.” Nigel snap his finger.
”Wanna test my theory?”
”Yeah yeah yeah..” Joe immediately agree following with Chase.
”Come on..give me a break.” he groans.
”There.” Nigel pointed at the group of girls who enjoying their picnic time at the park.
”Aslan, you act like a lost child, and then Uncle Alan will come to get you. And we'll see if my theory is work or not. I bet, even if he become a father, woman still will flirting to him.”
”Hey, don't use him.” Alan want to reject his idea but Aslan already run to the ladies and then stumble on the small rock.
He fell down and the ladies turn their eyes toward him. They all surrounding Aslan with a sympathy expression.
”Aww.. are you okay dear?” one of the ladies ask him.
He start to form a tears in his eyes.
”Awww, please don't cry..”
Not having a choice, Alan walk to them and clearing his throat a little making all the ladies turn their eyes to him.
”As..come on buddy, don't disturb these ladies here.” he extended his hand to him.
”Is he your child?” one of the them asked.
”Uh-”
”Papa.. my ankle hurt..” Aslan said with a sad voice.
Ignoring the question, he bend his body to him and look at his ankle.
'There is nothing there.' he shift his eyes to Aslan and he blink his eyes.
