Jean coughed several times. Her face looked pale and sickly, but she managed to force a smile. “I’m fine. Don’t worry. Just a little tightness in my chest.”
Upon hearing her discomfort, Brad forgot all about scolding Nadine and swiftly scooped Jean up into his arms. “I told you not to come. Your health is the most important thing. Why didn’t you listen? I’ll take you
back.”
Without giving Jean a chance to argue, he strode purposefully toward the door of the doctor’s office with
her in his arms.
Once outside the office, he paused and turned back to look at Nadine. “I’ll find you later.”
With those words, he disappeared from Nadine’s sight.
It wasn’t until his figure disappeared that Nadine snapped out of her daze.

Sean nodded happily and asked, “Can you treat your pride to a burger?”
Afraid that Nadine would refuse, he even patted his little tummy.
Unswayed by his sweet talk, Nadine smiled and shook her head. “Of course not. Junk food is not for
children.”
Though Nadine didn’t agree, Sean wasn’t disappointed. He sighed theatrically and shook his head. “You women are so fickle. One moment you call me your baby, and the next you won’t even let me have a burger. Sigh! All those sweet words for nothing. You adults are all good liars.”

Sean jumped up in joy. “Yeay!”
