Thomas had draped his own jacket over Theo’s head, shielding the boy while he himself was drenched to the skin.

Though Theo had caught some rain, Thomas’s protection kept him from looking too bedraggled.

Sharon hurried over, her voice tight with worry. “Theo, are you all right?”

The boy nodded. “I’m fine, Mommy. Thomas gave me his jacket. I’m really fine.”

A shadow of emotion flickered through Sharon’s eyes. “Thomas… thank you.”

With an easy laugh, Thomas swiped the rain from his face using his sleeve. “I’m your assistant. Looking after your son is part of the job.”
