Goodbye, Mr. Regret
Chapter 97
Chapter 89
Jessica paced restlessly, worry etched across her face. She wanted desperately to ask the doctor about Henry, but she couldn't speak.
Timothy seemed to sense her anxiety. He stepped forward, voicing every question she wished she could ask.
"It's only a minor procedure," the doctor assured them. "There's really nothing to worry about."
Soon after, Henry was wheeled into the operating room.
Even with the doctor's reassurance, Jessica couldn't shake her anxiety. Surgery was still surgery, no matter how simple. She hovered by the door, her heart feeling as though it might fly right in after her son.
Guilt gnawed at her.
She'd been so absorbed in her own mess lately, tangled up in her feelings, that she'd barely noticed Henry. He was only six, just a child-he acted out sometimes, said the wrong things. But instead of gently guiding him, she'd ignored him, left him to fend for himself.
If she'd paid more attention, if she'd cared for him like a mother should, maybe he wouldn't be sick now.

Timothy came over and wrapped an arm around her shoulders. His voice was low
and soothing. "Hey, it's going to be all right. Don't worry."
Jessica closed her eyes, struggling to compose herself.
