Chapter 170: Henry Goes to school

Richard stood on the other side, his smile warm and reassuring.

"Good morning," Richard greeted her, stepping inside. "Are you both ready?"

Emma nodded, forcing a smile as she tried to quell the butterflies in her stomach. "As ready as we'll ever be, I suppose."

Richard placed a comforting hand on her shoulder, his touch grounding her. "Everything's going to be just fine, Emma. You'll see."

She took a deep breath, nodding once more before turning to call for Henry. The little boy bounded into the room, his eyes lighting up at the sight of Richard.

"There's my big guy!" Richard exclaimed, scooping Henry up into his arms.

Henry giggled and squirmed happily, his nonverbal communication filling the room with joy. Emma couldn't help but smile at the sight, her worries momentarily forgotten.

The drive to the school was filled with nervous energy, with Henry blissfully unaware as he played happily in the backseat, oblivious to the significance of the day. Emma, however, couldn't shake her concerns, her mind whirling with a thousand questions. "Richard, you're sure this school can accommodate Henry's....special needs?" she asked, twisting in her seat to look at her friend. "What if they can't understand his nonverbal communication or help him develop his speech?"

Richard reached over and gave her hand a gentle squeeze, his touch reassuring. "I've done my research, Emma. This place specializes in children like Henry. They have highly trained staff, including speech therapists and child psychologists, to help kids just like our little guy."
