Love's Change of Heart

After Leanna was done feeding the boy, Aidan took him away.

Reminded of what happened earlier, she said, "Don't bully him."

Aidan said, "That should be the other way around."

He then took the boy to the garden.

The boy lay on Aidan’s back, staring at his mother melancholically.

Naomi said, "Don't worry.He knows what he's doing."

Leanna looked away and smiled.

"I know."

Aidan was a softie, and he wouldn't say what he was really feeling out loud.

After breakfast, Leanna was about to do the dishes, but Waylen coughed.

"Umm, come with me.We need to talk."

"We'll talk after..."

Naomi took the dishes from Leanna.

"Go.I'll handle this."

She went into the kitchen.

Leanna looked away and wiped her hand, then she followed Waylen out.

She muttered, "What's wrong?"

Waylen rubbed his neck.

"Sorry if I said the wrong thing."

Leanna smiled.

"It's alright."

Waylen said, "But I was serious about you guys getting another kid.An infant's cord blood is filled with stem cells, and those are the seeds of life.They can turn into all kinds of cells the human body needs—blood cells, nerve cells, bone cells, you name it."

He continued, "And there are hematopoietic stem cells in cord blood too.It can build the immune system, and it'll be great for the boy's treatment.Maybe you'll get something more out of it too."
