Benjamin and Denise continued playing in the living room until it was late before going to their rooms.

Kenneth knocked on Denise’s room door moments later.

“The door isn’t locked, so you can come right in.” Denise called out to him in her childish voice.

“Why aren’t you asleep yet?” Kenneth asked when he entered her room and saw her sitting on the bed.

Denise pouted and let out a sigh as she replied, “I’m a little worried about Mommy. She’s all alone in the hospital right now, and I’m not sure if the doctors are able to take good care of her.”

“She’s all by herself in the hospital?”

Denise nodded. “Yeah. Gramps told me about it over the phone earlier.”

Kenneth pursed his lips and said, “Get some rest, Denise. I’ll go check on your mommy at the hospital.”

Denise’s eyes lit up when she heard that. “Really?”

Kenneth nodded in response.

He was planning on heading over, to begin with, so Denise being worried about Natasha provided him with the perfect reason to do so.

“Thank you, Mr. Handsome! You’re such a nice guy!” Denise exclaimed happily.

Again with the “Mr. Handsome…”

I’ve always felt this inexplicable sense of closeness toward Denise whenever I saw her. Never have I ever expected for her to be related to me by blood. Now that I think about it, I really have missed out on a lot…

With that in mind, Kenneth reached out to pat her on the head. “Denise…”

“Hmm?”
