The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Melody did not immediately head upstairs when they arrived at the hospital. Lucas spent some time with her downstairs for a stroll to help her digestion. She indulged herself with a few extra pieces earlier because of the rather plain food she had been eating recently, so she ended up feeling a little uneasy as a result.
