Chapter 98

Josiah steadied his nerves and tried to reassure his grandmother , “ Grandma , don’t you trust Howard : He’s always been exceptional .

He overcame being in a vegetative state .

Do you really think rehab is going to stop him ? ”

His words hit home for Miranda .

She nodded in agreement .

“ You’re right .

Howard has always been an obedient , never once making me worry .

Everything he’s done .

……

She shot a glare at Josiah .

“ Not like you .

You just live to frustrate me .”

At that , a fleeting shadow crossed Josiah’s eyes , but it was so subtle it almost went unnoticed .

He quickly masked it with his usual carefree demeanor .

“ Of course , ” he raised his eyebrow and said with a playful grin .

“ As an elder brother , he should be great , and he can protect me .

night ? ”

Miranda couldn’t help but chuckle , tears still glistening on her cheeks .

She reached out and tapped Josiah’s forehead .

“ The moment Howard woke up , you started acting like a little kid again ,” she said .

She sighed deeply .

“ All I hope is for Howard to get bener quickly .

That way , you’ll have it easier , won’t you ? ”

“ Yes .

Grandma ,” Josiah replied , nodding solemnly .

That night , the two stayed in the hospital room , keeping vigil .

The next morning , Miranda personally helped Howard wash up while Josiah assisted from the sidelines

Though Howard couldn’t speak yet a faint blush colored his cheeks , clearly shy .

“ Oh , come on .” Miranda picked up on it instantly .

After all , she’d raised Howard and knew him very

v well .

“ Howard , feeling shy ! What’s there to be shy about You and Josiah were both raised by me , diapers and all …” she began .

“ Grandma “ ” Josiah protested , holding a wash basin “ Leave me out of this What’s all this talk about diapers ! 1 was born dashing and debonair .

“ Don’t be ridiculous ” Miranda retorted , rolling her eyes .

“ You think you were born a tall , handsome man ? ”

“ Of course ,” Josiah said , straightening up with mock pride .

“ I came into this world destined to be 6 feet 3 inches ”

“ Hey ! ” Mir

Miranda scoffed , shaking her head .

“ o feet 3 inches ? That’s Howard .

You’re six – foot – two , tops ”

“ Grandma Josiah exclaimed , feigning outrage .

From his bed , Howard watched the exchange , a small smile tugging at his lips

Once they were done , Miranda sat beside Howard , coaxing him to sip some water .

Though his feeding tube hadn’t been removed yet , the doctors had instructed them to let him start drinking slowly .

After all , he hadn’t eaten by mouth for many years , and this was part of his recovery ,

“ Here we go , ” Miranda said gently , spooning a bit of water for him .

“ Take your time , no rush .

”

Howard tried his best , and a little water escaped the corner of his mouth as he swallowed .

Josiah was quick to wipe it away with a towel .

“ Howard , there’s no rush .

You’re doing great for your first try … .

”

Suddenly , there was a knock at the door .

Before anyone could respond , the door swung open , and Yvette hurried in , practically running to Howard’s bedside .

“ Howard ! “

She stopped , catching her breath , and stood by the bed , Josiah , sensing the moment , stepped aside to give her space .

Yvette had clearly come straight from a shoot .

Her makeup was still on , and she looked utterly exhausted from a sleepless night and the rushed trip .

Her pallor betrayed her fatigue , and her eyes were filled with a mix of panic and weariness ,

“ Howard ,” she whispered , clasping his hand tightly .

She bent down , pressing her forehead gently against his .

When she finally spoke , her voice trembled , barely holding together .

Howard made a faint sound in his throat as if trying to respond .

“ It’s okay .

” Yvette murmured , her tone soft but resolute .

“ Take your time .

You’ll get bener , and when you’re ready , we’ll talk .

I’ll want for you .”

Miranda and Josiah exchanged glances , a silent understanding passing between them .

Without a word , they left the room , granting the couple their privacy

After a while , Yvette emerged from the room .

Her eyes were rimmed with red , her lids puffy .

Josiah raised a hand to his lips in mock dismay ‘ Chasing That’s such a harsh word , Miranda .

I’d call it pursuing , respectfully , of course ”

Outside the door , Yvette happened to be passing by .

Hearing Josiah’s comment through the slightly ajar door , she stopped in her tracks .

She held her breath as she listened .

“ You’re just asking for trouble ! ” Miranda scolded , rolling her eyes at Josiah .

“ I tried to set you up with her before , but you wouldn’t have it .

Now that she’s no longer interested , you’re chasing after her like a fool

Sighing , Miranda’s thoughts turned to Yvette , and she couldn’t help but add .

“ Is it that you always want what you can’t have ? Do you only like a lady who doesn’t like you back ? ”

“ Grandma , Josiah exclaimed , clearly exasperated .

“ Why are you saying the same things as everyone else ? How many times do I have to explain this !

“ Yeme is Howard’s beloved one .

Now that Howard’s awake .

Please be careful with your words .

You can’t say things like that anymore .

”

Miranda looked sheepish at the reminder , nodding apologetically .

“ You’re right , I misspoke , ”

Then , steering the conversation back to Sienna , she asked , “ So , if Sienna isn’t in Jeiacrity , where is she ? ”

Josh raised an eyebrow , his expression strug .

“ She’s in Harbwood ”

“ What’s she doing in Harlwood ? ” Miranda looked even more puzzled .

“ She doesn’t have any family there besides the Flynn family .

I hope she’s not being tricked by someone .

“ Grandma , ” Josiah interrupted with a laugh .

“ Relax .

She went with Brenda .”

He then explained how Sienna had joined the Lightning Dance

Miranda’s eyes widened in amazement .

“ You actually went to such great lengths for Sienna ! All for her ? ”
