For the next hour, Liam did what he could to cheer Oliver up. He had given Oliver the bowl of ice cream, and when Oliver didn't seem too motivated to feed himself, he had fed Oliver himself, ignoring the boy's protest that he could feed himself. After letting Liam feed him five spoons, he became uncomfortable and promised he would feed himself.
In all honesty, he enjoyed the cream and didn't know when he had almost finished the bowl as he watched Liam make them spaghetti.
He was glad Liam hadn't arrived with Cindy like he had planned because Cindy's father had a three-days leave and was home with his little daughter. He wouldn't have liked it if Cindy had seen him crying like that.
