"I know I know.. Let's call him Ben." Akiko raises her hand.
"Why Ben?" Nigel ask.
"It's cute. Like Ben Ten."
"No, How about we call him James?" Loula said.
"And why is that?" Nigel crossing his arm around his chest looking at Loula.
"Hazel found him with a weird suit. He looks like an agent. James Bond?"
"What? No…That's too old. I choose Allen. Barry Allen." Hazel eyes lit up a bit.
"The hell? Why is the name is all the heroes' type?" Joe bristled.
"Ah come on. It's cool." Akiko said.
"So you telling me my name is not cool enough?" Joe looks at Akiko's eye.
Blush, she nods. "You're a different case."
"So, pick one. Which one of them that you like?" Hazel asks him.
He rubs his back of his head and said "Aaron. Not Allen. And no Barry too. Just Aaron."
"Oh.." Hazel looks disappointed, but she immediately chases the feeling away from her heart.
Akiko and Loula also look disappointed. But only a moment before they smile again.
"Okay. It's decided then." Joe claps her hand.
"So, Aaron. Once again. Nice to meet you."
Aaron nods his head. "Yeah. Nice to meet you all too."
...
Next day.
Joe helps Aaron to sit in the wheelchair. He then pushes the wheelchair out of his room.
He then looks at the interior of the house. It was magnificently beautiful.
In the middle of the hall area, there is a big round place that has a tree and a lot of flowers. The roof design is see-through, we can see the sky clearly. The interior color is mostly yellow and white. Bright color combination.
There is a big window glass from the ceiling straight to the ground. Outside the glass window is a various type of roses flower.
"Joe, where are we exactly?" he asks feeling a bit curious. This looks like a house, but they had complete facilities like the hospital too.
"We call it 'Sun House'. This is where we work, live, and play together." He replied making Aaron frowned even more.
Joe then brings him to one of the rooms. The room is an in-house gym. They have a lot of equipment and a complete set of therapy equipment too.
"Okay, we're here. Come on, man. I'll help you stand up." He supports him with his shoulder and sits him at the chair and there is a desk in front of him.
Joe attached his finger with a steel string and instructed him to pull the string using his finger force.
Aaron follows his instruction very well.
"Aren't you supposed to work at the hospital? Why you work in the house instead of a hospital?"
"Hm? Oh.." he records his scale and replied to him again.
"That's because we aren't hired by any hospital. We are a free-lance doctor."
"What??" he was shocked.
"Is it even legal? I mean you just treat a patient without any proper acknowledge from the hospital?"
"Huh? No, no. it's the hospital who came to us, normally."
"I don't get it."
"Well, did you ever see a drama series called 'House'?" After he has done, Joe led him to the treadmill.
"I don't know. I don't remember."
"Hmm. How do I put, we are a group of physicians that is only known to certain people? We treat a special person and a special case only." He smiles and set the treadmill to a slow run.
"Alright. Now, focus on your training." He pats his arm.
Knowing his cue which is he doesn't want to be asked again, he just nods and forces his legs to walk on the treadmill slowly.
After an hour he exercised, suddenly there is a small head pop up from the wooden door frame.
"Uhm...Uncle Joe." He said. His voice is so slow and cute.
Aaron turned his head around to see the small figure on the door.
"Oh! My baby Asher. Come here, come here.." Joe open both of his hand as the boy run slowly to him and hug his legs instead.
Bend his body, he carries the boy into his arms.
"When did you arrive? Uncle didn't see you earlier." Joe making a face to the boy as the boy laugh happily.
"Just now, Mr. Brandon brings me here. I would like to see mommy. But she's busy." He puffs his cheek.
"Aww~ Don't be sad. You still have a lot of Uncles and Aunties here. We would love to play with you." Joe tries to console the boy.
"Uh-huh?" he averts his eyes to Aaron's figure.
"Who is he?" he asked Joe in a cute voice.
"Oh..That is your mom's patient." He replied and bring the boy to him.
"Come on. Say hi to Uncle Aaron here."
"Uhm...Hi?"
"Hi." Aaron looked at the boy. His eyes were green and his hair is jet black and a bit wavy. He looks cute with a smile on his face.
"Ash?" Hazel's voice surprises the three of them.
"What are you doing here? Go back to your room." She said with a bit of angry lay on her voice.
Aaron frowned a bit. While Joe turn silent. He put Asher on the floor and whisper to his ear.
"Go now, we don't want to make your mom turned into a hulk, aren't we?"
He nods and waves his small hand at both of them before he fled to his room.
After seeing the boy fled to his room, she stared at both of them for a few seconds before she walks out of the gym."Fuhh.." Joe exhale."What's wrong?" Aaron asked with a curious expression."Ah well, it's not my place to tell you about this, but what I can say is..she..mm..not really like that kid." He then pushes his wheelchair and waits at the elevator inside the house.After going to the first floor, which is where the living room and kitchen located there, Joe bring him to the kitchen hall.In the kitchen, there is Chase who is currently making some lunch for him.He looked at Joe and immediately Joe reply to him without Chase asking."Hey, it's not I'm lazy okay. He's doing great with his exercise. I told you, he's a tough guy." Joe narrowed his eyes to the lunch dish that he had prepared."Oh. Where is mine?"Chase turned his head to the freezer."Seriously Chase?" he groans and walks to the
Around 3 AM.Someone suddenly knocking on his door. Because it's difficult for Aaron to move around, He just speaks from the bed."Come in."Mr. Brandon walks inside the room and his eyes fixed on the small figure on the bed."Ah..I'm so sorry. He must be tired from the long hour flight for him to sleep in here." He hurriedly carries Asher on his arm, while Aaron just smiles at the old man. He never saw him before."No. He might be afraid of thunder." Aaron said politely."I see. Ah.. how are you by the way? Did your wound still hurt?" Mr. Brandon looks at him with a worried expression.Shake his head, Aaron reply to him. "No. My wound is getting better. But, Mr…?""Brandon. I am Hazel's personal butler," he said, introducing himself to the man.Upon hearing the word 'butler', his head feels a bit dizzy. He tries to not show his painful face in front of him as he just nods his head."
"What?" Aaron looks at everyone while scrunching his eyebrows."Man! Don't tell me, you're a waiter before?" Joe breaks the silence."Uhh...I don't think so, mate." he shakes his head."Then, what are you?" Nigel asks making Akiko raise her hand."I know, I know. He must be a superhero. He had nice abs and pecks when we found him, and not only that, he can cook and his movement is smooth and fast."".…." Aaron just chuckled and continue to eat his dinner. Its amusing him to see how worked up all of them to guess who he is."Oh, Akiko..you hurt me. Am I not man enough to you?" he replied with a hint of sulking.Chase takes the slice of carrot on his plate and puts it on Joe's plate making him more irritated."Damn you Chase!"'What?' he raise his eyebrows, he did not say anything, but his face clearly mocking Joe."You're telling me I'm skinny?" Joe narrowed his eyes to Chase."
Aaron walkout from the isolation room and strolled over to the living hall where is Chase and Joe were enjoying playing a video game there.He slouched on the couch and watch both of them playing the game. Chase notice his gaze and he handed his game console to him."Wanna play?" he asks.Looking down at the game console, he nods. "Yeah, let me try this stage."Lifting up his eyebrow, Chase shifts his sit from the floor to the couch, and Aaron changes from couch to the floor.Joe looks at two of them."Ready Aaron?" he snickers."Yeah.""I'll be gentle on you. Since this might be your first time playing this game." He said arrogantly."Mhm? Don't be too kind, Joe. Use all you got." Aaron also smirking looking at his face."Alright.." he pushes the start button....A few minutes later,Joe leaning his head back at the couch cushion with a defeat expres
She slips her hair behind her ear when the wind brushes her face. She looks at the fall leaves near her as she sits at the bus stop bench waiting for the bus to come over.She put the earphone on her ear and play her playlist on her iPod. Listening to the song, she starts remembering the blue eyes men she met before at the cafe.He was tall with a great shape of the body. Not a bulge one, but it was the one that will imprint to each woman's eyes once they saw his figure.His blonde hair and perfect jaw were so alluring. His eyes..is blue like sapphire and he gives an aristocratic vibe around him.Honking sound made her jolt her body a bit. She looks at the bus which already stops in front of the bus stop, she then stands up from the bench and steps inside the bus.After 15 minutes ride, she steps out from the bus and walks to her apartment."Hi Vi, just got back from your work?" a man who is her neighbor asks her before she twi
After having dinner, the four of them return back to the Sun House.Joe joins Akiko and Loula watching some drama series on the television while Nigel returns back to his room.Aaron went back to his isolation room and resting. While Chase took a bath and change his attire before he walks to Hazel's wing and knocks on her room door.After a few moments, Hazel open the door."What's the matter Chase?" she asks."Can we talk?""Sure. Come in." she pulls the door to widely open it.Walk inside her room, he takes a sit on the single chair facing her."We bros agree to let Aaron stay at this house.""Okay..so?""He needs a room.""Mhm..""And there is only one room left.""No, he can't.""Hazel..it's been years... let it go..will you?"Hazel shook her head making Chase stand up and look at her face."Move on Hazel.. you said you hate him, but you never let h
"Do you remember Asher?" Chase asked him. He knew Aaron already met this little boy last time.He nods. "Yeah.""He is… Hazel's fiance child." Said Joe."Oh, so, Asher is their child." Aaron nods again, not knowing why Joe suddenly said about their child."No. It's not Hazel's. It's his 'bastard' child. He had an affair or another girlfriend aside Hazel." Joe correcting him."What?" Aaron dumbfounds a moment."I know you wouldn't believe it either. So we run the DNA test on that child, it is a 99% match with his.""Whoa..that's too much for her.""Ever since that, people always talk bad about him. But I believe there must be a reason for him to do so. He's not the person who will hurt her. He loves her so much." Chase look at the floor blankly."What happened to him? I mean, they can still reconcile and be together right?""How do you plan to reconcile with someone who's already gone?
Chase takes his cup and sits at the table around the corner of the cafe. He put his sling bag on the seat and take out his book.Violet secretly peeking at him when she had a chance. Her action was caught by Poppy, her manager."He's handsome isn't he?" she looked at the way as Poppy's eyes do."Huh?" Violet immediately turned her eyes to her manager back."He's a regular customer. But, it's been months since last he visited here. I thought he might be already moving out to another city." she smiles and touches her shoulder signaling there is a customer at the counter.Not asking anymore, Violet continues her work as her manager, Poppy went back to the kitchen....After a whole day practicing and doing some exercise to built back his figure, Aaron walks into the bathroom to take his shower. His body is sweating so much.Standing under the shower, he closed his eyes. He keeps remembering the dream th
