Irene’s voice was hoarse as she began, “Hold me, Isaac.”

Isaac did so, leaning in and wrapping his arms around her through the blanket, asking her softly, “Do your hips hurt?”

Irene sniffled. “Tommy was crying?”

“Oh, he’s enjoying himself out in the courtyard now,” Isaac said, his expression turning serious. “What about you?”

“Me too.” Isaac chuckled.
