Chapter 46 She Is Back

• "Son? What the heck is happening here?" Mrs McCall asks in utter confusion.
• Jerol has been a statue ever since times in memorial. I doubt if he can even hear his mother's voice. His eyes are not focused so much on this woman's face but on her belly, and I can't help but think that he is getting a kick out of thinking that he may be the father of Ellie's baby. I know how much he wanted a baby, how much he still yearns for one. I am cognizant that he also loved this woman with the whole of his heart. He went insane when she left, and that alone elucidates how deep he was into her. That is why I don't think he is even aware of his brother's presence. His entire focus is on the belly bump and I'm sorry for what I am feeling right now.
• "Umh...baby?" I call in a low soothing tremor, and by good luck, I manage to snap him out of wherever he was lost to.
