It finally came to the day to do the surgery, Jack and his dad arrived at the hospital. Only two of them came because they had activities to do even though they where willing to cancel their plans he convinced them that every thing would be alright.
They entered the hospital talked to a lady at the information desk to state their reason for their arrival at the hospital.
After she confirmed their appointment and searched for Jack's name, she lead them to a room and told them to wait.
After 15 minutes a doctor, Dr Phil arrived to greet them.
Seeing Dr Phil coming to their way they quickly stood up to greet him.
"No need to stand up on your feet please kindly sit", Dr Phil urged them to sit once again to which they complied.
After Jack and his father sitting down, the doctor briefly explained about the surgery, on how it will be done.
" The surgery as I mentioned earlier will be done in the brain. Since it's small piece of wood with the size of five normal needles combined, we will cut a little bit of hair around the area and make a small hole and use a special tool to go in the brain and take it out instead, since it more better to heal the scar....
Jack found the talk very boring that he didn't want to listen so he bent his neck down looking down on his laps to sleep like he's bowing his head to pray.
Seen this,Dr Phil misunderstood his patient.
Thinking that Jack is afraid and sad he told him," don't worry young man am an expert in this part. It will be precise and done quickly. Also you won't feel pain since an anesthetic drug is given to you". He tried to encourage him.
While encouraging and explaining to Jack that there won't be nothing wrong he didn't notice that the person who he was advising was past asleep.
Mr Willams seeing this discreetly quickly woke Jack up.
Jack seeing the situation after being woken up adjusted perfectly. He nodded while thanking and agreeing to the doctor's statement.
While Dr Phil was still talking not looking over them, Mr Willams stared at his son giving him a questioning look.
Seeing this Jack whispered to his father, "Dad I guess my personality is getting the best out of me, I found his conversation boring, sorry".
He explained to his dad and apologised for his behaviour.
Though Jack's father didn't say out loud he also found the conversation boring. Seeing the doctor ramble on and on he decided to indirectly stop him to cut the conversation which worked, it always did work.
Then the doctor let the father and son be. He went on his way to prepare for the surgery while some nurses came 5 minutes after he felt to go remove his clothes and wear the hospital gown.
The wheeled him after to the emergency room where the operation will be done while Jack's dad waited out of the door and waited.
After some few minutes the light outside the room, above the door turned on signaling the operation has begun.
.....
Inside the operation room.
After they took Jack inside, doctor Phil appeared already ready, covered wearing the two surgery gown, two gloves, hair and face mask,....
Nodding at the nurses to start, they placed a plastic mask over his nose and mouth with a can attached to it that contains the anaesthetic.
Making him breathe in and out for a few seconds they removed it it and asked him to count from 10 backwards in a descending order.
"Ok.10...9...8...7...6...5...4...3...2....1....0", he finally fell asleep unknowingly that he broke a counting record.
As the surgery was on going, Dr Phil asked for one of the nurses to play music. She asked if he had a song in mind. While getting the long tool to the brain to get the piece of wood out he paused to think.
"Umm.... I choose 'Poker face' by Lady Gaga. Yes!! let's go with that", he said continuing what he was doing after replying to the nurse.
The nurse replied with an okay sign and played the song.
While Phil didn't know who was in his operation table, the moment he took the wood piece of the brain, like a circuit separated finally connecting while current finally flowing true it, Jack's body slowly returning to his normal state will cause the world to change once again and more than he did in the past.
The moment was yet to come.
.....
Outside the the door.
30 minutes has passed when Mr Willams decided to finally sit down and wait for the good news of a successful surgery.
The moment he sat down he saw his beautiful wife who didn't listen to him and son telling her not to come.
He didn't say anything to her. He only glanced at her wondering what kind of excuse she was going to come up this time on her reason for coming to the hospital instead of staying at home as initially discussed beforehand.
"Why are looking at me like that? As if I am going to make an excuse? I just came to check on my son any problem?", she side eyed him and continued to explain.
"I just came to see if he needed anything and on my way I brought his favourite food and some meds for his pain", she proudly said.
"As if they don't have any of those here who are you trying to fool", he mumbles quietly to himself.
"What did you say? Say that to my face", she said giving him a murderly smile.
"Nothing. I said nothing. I said that you are good", he lied panicked while cold sweat dripping down his face.
"You better", she uffed as turned away from him, backing him clearly offended.
After 30 minutes the door finally opened as it was announced to them that the surgery was very successful.
With that the surgery lasted 1 hour 15 minutes in total.
