Best Intentions Page #10

it can't be only the cheese and yoghurt.

She's been here for 2 days...

Really stop blaming yourself...

I mean he says that's a cause,

but it can't be the only one...

I should've asked more people

what she's allowed or not...

But Susu told you the same thing.

Really now!

I gave her that yoghurt

with my own hand...

Sir! I told you not to put

chicken and cheese in the salad.

Bring me another one...

- Chicken's okay...

- Okay then!

- It can have chicken, but no cheese.

- And a non alcoholic been please!

Fine... In an open air pub

near the hospital.

We're Waiting for the results.

They said it will take about 3 hours.

There's no hurry...

it's so nice outside anyway...

Okay... If you say so...

Okay kisses, bye...

- Who was it'?

- Rodica...

She said she'll call

to hurry them up a bit

'cause it's unacceptable

to Wait that long.

- You know how Rodica is... Nice.

- She is nice!

What's so nice about hen mom?

Didn't everybody tell you

that these tomography analyses

take time and that it's important?

- Why does she mess about?

- I told her...

- But she said she'll sort things out...

- There's nothing to sort!

- Does she know Whats best for you?!

- What am I supposed to do?

I didn't even have the chance

to tell her...

God! These guys and their

good intentions drive me crazy!

They can't mind

their f***ing business!

- They can't possibly be that stupid...

- Let's eat... I'm hungry!

Alex!

- He sometimes behaves just like father!

- Like me?

- You do exactly the same!

- If you drive me crazy... of course!

- C'mon love...

- I'm fine...

Hello, yes... Yeah... Okay...

No, I'm coming... 20... Thank you!

In about 20 minutes

we can go pick up the results.

- I knew it! What did I tell you?

- What did she say?

That it's really bad...

That I'm the only one shell tell...

- Stop messing around... Tell me!

- They didn't find anything!

- It's the same diagnosis.

- As if you can be sure...

They didn't even have time

to check the results properly...

- Mrs. Nuti will check them...

- Of course! And Mr. Crisan too...

Why the f*** does she mess about?

Why?

It's nice outside... We're in no hurry...

What does she Want to prove?!

- Alex, enough. it's over!

- No, it's not over...

She was overzealous

and we came here for nothing!

Enough Alex!

You want everybody

to do exactly what you say.

She only meant to be nice...

That's why I wanted

to move mom to Cluj!

You believe all you hear

and you can't say no to anyone.

- What do you mean?!

- You believe all the morons!

Now you're teaching me what to do!

And Keep quiet!

Everybody's looking at us!

I snould've gone back to Bucharest...

You know everything anyway...

It would've been better!

What? Don't you think

we can take care of ourselves?

And why are you acting

so high and mighty?

You always talk back to people...

- They're my friends...

- Enough...

Like hell, enough! You gave me

that cheese and it wasn't good, see?

- Or that you don't see?

- Why do you have to fight?

C'mon love, what did you get

so angry for?

Let's go pick up the results...

He's edgy...

He's feeling really guilty

about that cheese

and he got scared this morning...

- Look! it's Written in pen...

- I've noticed, but it's illegible.

It says physiological serum".

It means they found traces of

physiological serum in her blood.

So, the tests are useless.

- You see? You Worried for nothing.

- How was I not to Worry, dad?

- You said we'd talk later...

- I needed to see it with my own eyes.

- You're way too sensitive, Alex!

- Is this it'?

- He's an only child...

- Sorry for yesterday.

Exactly as I suspected: no traces!

Look here... There's some dots...

Here, here and here.

See them? They are older.

Anyway as we grow older,

the brain is affected by the...

all kind of factors...

It looks like a stroke,

but it's got nothing to do

with this, so... You can relax.

In other Words, with time

We all get brain spots!

Right! Brain spots...

- So can we discharge her?

- Sure!

Anyway I'll have to keep her

under close observation

for a couple of months.

I'll decide upon her medication

together with Nuti,

and she must continue

to take the Frontin in the morning

and in the evening.

It's bad to take it in the morning

when she's fresh and not sleepy.

Right... But, at first,

she should take at least half a pill.

Yeah... Half in the evening

and half in the morning.

And, in time,

we'll decrease the dose.

And she should take

the brain pill for about 3 months.

Wait a sec... There are no traces...

It doesn't hurt, of course...

If it doesn't hurt,

then it's good!

Let's try it for a month

and if she's fine, then...

Okay, that's good, too.

There's no fixed medication for this.

Alex dear,

we're not having an argument...

That's the Way We talk...

We've known each other for ever...

Your mom's medication

is great.

Alex, your mom's fine.

You can go back to Bucharest

Without any Worry

One more question...

I looked on the internet

to see whats the medication

in other countries

and its the same...

except there was another drug.

- Dipirimol, I think...

- See how cute he is?

How could anyone

be angry with him?!

- He's on the internet.

- It's called Dipiridamol.

It used to be recommended,

but it was proven useless

and it was eliminated

from the medication...

- it's an older drug...

- I see... I didn't check that...

That's what I had to deal with

every day!

- We all do the same, no?

- And he's an only child, too...

- We all do the same, no?

- And he's an only child, too...

You're not upset I'm not

seeing you off at the station, right?

That's really something!

I have no luggage

and dad's seeing me off!

What time will you get

the results tomorrow?

- Round 12.

- And you'll call me, right?

- Is this tuica enough?

- That bag is ugly...

- This is mine...

- No, it's not.

- Okay, it's his... I'm ready.

- Go get your shoes then.

I'm off...

Thanks for coming.

And I didn't mean to upset you...

I mean... to say what I said...

I got angry...

No, it's me who overreacted

I'm sorry.

C'mon, we'll miss the train.

Keep your Skype open

so that I can hear what happens.

And call me tomorrow

to tell me about the tests.

Okay...

C'mon, it's not

like we're leaving for Pakistan!

I'm sorry mom.

I didn't mean to hurt you.

Eh, how would you hurt me'?!

And it's not the first time

we had a fight, but sometimes

you act all hysterical.

But I'm not upset...

- Bye...

- So, you ARE leaving for Pakistan...

Listen... don't get angry

if mom forgets things,

Listen... don't get angry

if mom forgets things,

'cause that's the way it is...

And tell her to call me tomorrow

when she has the results.

And buy her

those low fat yoghurts.

And some flowers...

Anything else?

What time does

it reach Bucharest?

Round 6:
30,

unless there are delays...

Okay then...

God, you've turned grey!

You'll catch up with me in no time...

Bye;

it's very hard to notice.
