"You wouldn"t disappoint your father with such weakness . You would think of something much more final than death such that Ellie would never want to see you ever again . You"re much more cruel than that, if someone hurts you . " Deul looked at Henry with a soft smile of someone whom Henry did know know had been watching him closely while he played in the water as a child .
Advertis.e.m.e.ntHenry didn"t know how to reach so he finally just shrugged . "I"m sure I would never harm her without good reason . She"s not like the people who were around me back then . "
Deul looked up the staircase longingly . "Is Ellie in any state to see anyone? I could just peek in on her to see that she"s well . It"s alright if she can"t talk to me or is in a lot of pain . "
"Since the idea of me worrying about her disturbs her, she removed me from her staff . I should be quite offended, but women are the interesting puzzle to me . I never understand . But I know she will be delighted to have you with her, I know her trust for you is something that she doesn"t question . "
As they both made their way up the stairs, Henry quickly explained the whole story behind Ellie"s symptoms .
Deul blew in a gasp, "So it really were the nurses who were doing the wrong . I knew I should have tried to make someone to understand my concerns for her . We always say that too much medicine is not good . "
"I"m sure that Ellie was confident that the doctors at the hospital were doing the best that they could with the knowledge that they had at the time . She"s happy that she found a second opinion to know that they were wrong . She is no longer taking any painkiller to numb her, I imagine great amount of pain . " His eyes met Deul"s in consternation of this choice . "I know very little about medicine and about painkillers . I am worried that she is in much more pain than she tells me . I would rather she takes it until she is more able to move about, but she is as stubborn as her brother . "
"When I worked in a garage in China, there was a mechanic who would take a Tylenol with every meal . Every time he would forget, he would get a severe headache and groan about it until someone went to the corner shop and got him some . It always made me suspicious of anything that isn"t given herbal . " Deul explained with a shake of his head . "I can see why Ellie wants to stop before it gets worse . That girl is headstrong, but not to the point of stupidity . She"s not going to jeopardize her health when she is well on her way to getting better . "
Henry nodded slowly now satisfied . "Now that you know you"re way around, I think you can find the door . People here speak our language as well so you don"t have to speak English if it strains you . If you get lost, remember there are people all around who can help you . If you get the urge to visit Ellie again, don"t worry to call me and I"ll send people and a car over . You could stay here permanently if you"d like to as well as I know that would make Ellie feel more at home as she regards you to be family . I know you want her to get better as quick as possible . "
