Chapter 0144

“Noah, are you done with your homework?” I call, but I don’t get an answer.

It was Friday afternoon and I was dead tired on my feet. I had forgotten when you’re pregnant how easily you get tired. Every single thing tired me out.

The only thing I’m grateful for is that I never experienced morning sickness unlike when I was pregnant

with Noah.

“Noah?” I call him again.

I wonder what the hell he is doing. I usually get an answer immediately. Unless something has caught his

attention and distracted him.

Before I can carry my tired b*dy to go upstairs to check on him, my doorbell rings.

I release a heavy sigh. It’s not that I didn’t want to see anyb*dy, I just wanted to take a break. Maybe have a long bath.

I spent the whole day at the Hope Foundation going through tons of documents that needed my attention. My eyes were dry, My mind was burnt out and my b*dy was aching all over.

Dragging myself, I open my door and I am surprised to find Calvin and Gunner at my doorstep. It’s been

two days since that day in my backyard.

When Gunner didn’t show up when Noah got back from school, I assumed that maybe Calvin didn’t want anything to do with us. After all, he was really grumpy during our whole encounter.
