You're Out Daddy

Benjamin and Denise walked ahead and saw Natasha lying on the bed and unconscious.

They knew she would be okay, but in all their lives, they had only seen Natasha being strong. They had never witnessed her lying on the bed in such a terrible state before.

Their eyes instantly turned red as tears gathered.

“Nat…” murmured Denise. She got closer and began blowing on Natasha’s face. “Does it hurt? I’ll blow the pain away for you.”

Terence became teary-eyed when he saw that.

Kenneth was watching from the side as well. He shifted his gaze away, and those dark brown eyes shone with a hint of complex emotion.

“It’ll be fine. They already said that Nat will recover,” cooed Benjamin from the side.

Still, Denise couldn’t stop herself from crying.

“It’ll be okay, Denise. Your mommy will be fine, so you don’t need to worry,” cooed Terence as he walked to them.

To everyone’s surprise, Denise suddenly tilted her tiny head up and said, “I’m heartbroken, Gramps. Nat has never been this injured before.”

Terence was taken aback. She’s right. Natasha has always played the role of a powerful mother and a resilient granddaughter. Not once have I ever seen her in this state before… She would never let her kids see her being sick or troubled.

“It’ll be okay. Everything will be fine. It’ll pass,” promised Terence.

“Come on, Denise. Gramps will be heartbroken if you keep crying like that,” said Benjamin.

He was also heartbroken and in pain, but he was the small man of the house. He had to be the emotional support.

His words encouraged Denise to stop crying.

Kenneth spoke at that moment. “Old Mr. Watson, it’ll take some time before she wakes up. I got the room right beside this one for everyone. You should take the kids there and rest up.”

Terence still had a scowl on. “There’s no need for that. I will stay here with Nat.”

“I want to stay too,” replied Denise.

“I’m not leaving either,” said Benjamin.

It was clear to see how much they worried, loved, and depended on Natasha.

Kenneth could almost see how beautiful and happy the family was when they were together. And I was never a part of it…
