354 The Future of Nexus Global

(Jayden)

Winona steps back into the room after checking the older kids in bed. She looks a little more at ease. She has the monitor screen in her hand.

"The monitors work well," she says, sitting down beside me. "But I don't know. It feels so impersonal. I'd

rather be more hands-on with the kids."

I nod, knowing exactly what she means. "It's a big house. Everything's spread out. Feels like we're miles away but moving into a guest wing isn't practical for the first night."

"I know," she says, glancing down at Henry, who's starting to doze off in his bassinet. "But Henry will sleep in our room tonight. There's a cot and I'll leave him in the bassinet. I don't care how good the monitors are. I want him close." I smile at that. "Of course. Can't leave him up to his own devices."

She leans back against the couch, letting out a small sigh. "I think the family house will be so much better. I can't wait to get started making it livable."

"I mean, the staff here could have it done in no time."

"I know. But I think it'll be cathartic for us to do it ourselves. For you."

"Don't think it will magically fix things for Gus and me."

"No, but it can't hurt to see you were wanted, Jayden. No matter how things turned out. You should see the backyard. It's massive and every kid's dream to explore."

"Not to mention full of kittens." I give a wry grin.

"Yes! Hundreds of them, all plotting against you." Winona laughs.

"The move, this ridiculous house, Nexus... everything is complicated right now."

"But, we eat the elephant one bite at a time."

The kids, you, us. That's what matters. Nexus is just a job." Winona looks up at me, her eyes searching mine.
