“Don’t say that. You don’t owe me anything.” I shook my head.

My dad was about to go on a business trip, so he dropped by to check on my mom. Bonnie’s actions and words earlier had weighed heavily on him. He was frowning the whole time.

The three of us left the hospital together. Bailey was waiting at the door for my dad. After they left, Russel took my hand and led me to his car.

“Let’s get you some food; put some weight back on,” he said with a grin.

“If only one meal could restore all the weight I’ve lost,” I sighed, letting Russel lead me.

He turned to look at me and said, “What’s so hard about that? From now on, I’ll eat with you every day. If I can’t, I’ll have someone send you gourmet food to make sure you’re well-nourished and healthy.”

Russel took me out for a lavish dinner. He was incredibly gentlemanly and tender, peeling shrimp and picking out bones for me. Everything was perfect. It was the most relaxing day Id had in a while.
