~ Los Angeles ~
Sarah and Aiden are in a restaurant, having lunch with Jarred and Charlie.
Charlie is excitedly explaining about his upcoming surgery.
Sarah can understand his feelings. Even though JoAnna didn't give him more than one in three chances to walk again, it is much better than zero.
"Surgery is in three weeks, did Anna give you any instructions until then?", Sarah asked.
"Not really. She said to rest. But I'm sitting all the time. What more rest I need?", Charlie responded.
"She probably implied to rest your head.", Jarred glanced at his overly-excited nephew. Even though it sounded that he is scolding him, Jarred was smiling. It's been a long time since he saw Charlie in such high spirits.
Charlie looked at Jarred and frowned for a second before rolling his eyes dramatically. "My head does not need rest. I'm optimistic. That is a good thing."
They laughed.
