When Jake called out to her, Jessica couldn’t help but gag again.”

The next second, Brian came rushing out of the kitchen, still holding a spatula and wearing his apron. “Jessica-”

The smell of cooking oil still clinging to his clothes made Jessica feel even worse. Without thinking, she looked up and said, “Don’t come over here!”

Brian stopped dead in his tracks and stood a few steps away, watching her with concern. “Jake, help your mom by patting her back. I’m going to wash up first.”

“Okay, Daddy!” Jacob replied loudly, stretching up on his tiptoes to pat Jessica’s back.

Jessica refused. “No, don’t. I might throw up on you.”

She hadn’t been paying attention earlier and had already gotten some on herself. Jessica really didn’t want to get clean little Jacob dirty too, but Jacob didn’t hesitate to respond.

“It’s okay, Mom, throw up all you want. You took care of me the same way when I was sick!” Jake still remembered those few times he’d had bad colds and was throwing up.

Jessica would carry him straight to the doctor, and even when he threw up all over her during the ride, she never put him down.

Jessica hadn’t been disgusted with him back then, so there was no way he would be disgusted with her.

Jessica was surprised he still remembered those moments, and warmth spread through her chest. ‘At least all those years of caring for him left some kind of mark, she thought. But it was too little, too late.

Seeing that it worked, Brian quickly placed the spray in Jessica’s hands, then scooped her up and carried her to the clean couch nearby. When he noticed her clothes were dirty, he immediately grabbed some tissues to wipe them clean while giving Jake instructions.

“Jake, go get your mom some clean clothes,” Brian said.

“Okay.” Jacob immediately turned and ran toward Jessica’s bedroom.

Jessica wanted to stop him but couldn’t react fast enough, so she just let it go. She looked down at Brian, who was carefully cleaning the mess off her body, and for a moment her expression went completely blank.

‘Brian, do you really not mind this?‘ she wondered. ‘Or have you been pretending this whole time, just putting on an act for me? But could someone really be that good at acting?‘

Jessica didn’t know and couldn’t figure it out.

“There, all clean now. Jessica, you can take your clothes off now,” Brian said. He was worried she’d be uncomfortable wearing the dirty clothes, so he’d cleaned her up as quickly as possible.

“Okay,” Jessica replied weakly, then let Brian help her out of her jacket.

Brian took the jacket and put it in the dirty laundry basket in the bathroom, then came back out with a broom and mop to
