The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Jeremy wheeled himself over to Bryan and patted his head. “There, there. I promise you I’ll reunite you with your mother.”

Bryan nodded. “Okay! I believe you, Daddy!”

“I need to do my rehabilitation exercise now, so be a good boy and play with your toys in the living room, okay? Promise me you won’t touch anything in the kitchen, and shout for me if you need anything,” said Jeremy gently, which was different from his usual stern tone.

“Okay! I promise I’ll be a good boy. Good luck, Daddy!”

Jeremy pursed his lips and wheeled himself to the bedroom. The condition there was very limited. He could not buy professional rehabilitation equipment, lest Sophia found out what he had been up to.

Thus, he could only go to the balcony and use the railing there to do rehabilitation exercises. One good thing about doing the rehabilitation exercise on the bedroom balcony was that if Sophia came back midway, he would have some buffer time to recollect himself.

He held the railing of the balcony with both hands and struggled to stand up, almost using his arms to support the entire weight of his body. His legs kept shaking because of the lack of strength in them. He then tried to use less arm strength and let his legs stand for a moment.
