The backseats comfier, she suggested.
Albert wordlessly took the passenger seat. Jessie glanced his way, remarking, Your body, your choices. If you dont take care of it, no one else will.
Albert reclined, closing his eyes for a moment of rest.
As Jessie revved the engine, he muttered, You do care for me, but your words are always so harsh.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTears welled up in Jessies eyes.
After dropping off Albert, she trudged back home, her body weary.
Climbing the stairs, she noticed the light was on and realized Lettie had returned.
Jessie was a bit taken aback.
Shedding her shoes in the entryway, she questioned, Mom, arent you planning to stick around in Tashkao a bit longer?

Even if Jessie kept quiet, Lettie, being her mom, could see she was fretting over Albert.
Two days later, on Saturday, Jessie had her session with Jeslyn.
After Lunch, Albert lounged on the sofa, flipping through a magazine like he had all the time in the world.
Jeslyn, dolled up to the nines, snuck a peek from the stairwell, scrunching her nose at Elsie. Dads more amped for this than | am.
Elsie corralled Jeslyn upstairs to brush her hair.
Jeslyn whispered something.
Albert caught wind of it but just glanced up and kept mum.
Emma, hovering around, murmured, Mr. Waston, Doctor Calderons on the lookout for you.
