Chapter 27 The City-Wide Search for the Child

That night, Sadie was out like a light, her cold weighing her down into a deep slumber, and she slept right through her alarm.

It was Brenda who finally roused her from bed.

Sadie heaved herself up, her body feeling like a lead weight, and went through her morning routine, feeling out of sorts.

Upon learning of Sadie's cold, Brenda promptly brewed a pot of ginger tea, its warmth a small comfort.

Noah rummaged through the medicine cabinet for some cold medicine and then poured a glass of steaming water. "Mommy, after breakfast, you have to take your medicine like a good girl," he instructed, his young face earnest. Sadie, her nose stuffed up, held a tissue to her face. "Thank you, sweetheart. I overslept today, so I'm pressed for time. I'll have Brenda take you to the bus stop later."

"Don't worry, Mommy. I can handle both of them," Noah assured her, his demeanor surprisingly mature for his age, his handsome features set with determination.

"Mommy, please don't go to work today. Take a sick day and see a doctor," Mia pleaded, her chubby hand reaching up to dab at Sadie's runny nose, her expression pinched with concern.

"It's just a cold. I'll be fine once I take some medicine," Sadie croaked, her throat raw, her voice a dry rasp as she reached for more water.
