Waylen took the car keys and picked up Edwin.
“I’ll take you two out for a meal.”
As they got into the car, he turned to his sister and softly asked, “Have you visited Rena’s uncle?”
Cecilia nodded.
Waylen extended his hand to gently touch her head.

Cecilia felt the urge to cry.
Only in front of her brother could she fully let her guard down and stop pretending to be strong.
She rested her head on Waylen’s shoulder and confided, “Waylen, these past few days have been so surreal. I’ve been having dreams. When I wake up, I can’t tell whether I’m in the past or the present. I always feel like I’m still with him.”
Cecilia found it hard to let go of Mark.
But she forced herself to do so.
Waylen felt a sense of sadness. If Cecilia knew about Mark’s serious illness, she would surely reconsider.
However, that would be too cruel to her.
As her brother, Waylen couldn’t bring himself to do it.
Waylen had lunch with Cecilia.
At 2 p.m., he returned to the hospital. The doctors and nurses were carrying out a physical examination of Elva.
Hence, Elva’s clothes had to be taken off.

Rena was also there with her.
Waylen walked over and put his arm around his wife’s waist and looked at Elva affectionately.
He used to think his favorite daughter would always be Alexis, but after he had Elva, he realized he didn’t have a favorite daughter.
He loved both of them equally.
Elva, though she was in the presence of so many people, was not shy at all. Instead, she kicked her fat legs happily.
She even grinned at her parents, showing her toothless pink gums.
