Day two.
Rosalynn had to get up early for work, so she was the first one up.
When she woke up, Wayne woke up too.
Like a big dog, he limped after Rosalynn with his crutches.
Ever since their reunion, Wayne and Rosalynn had been inseparable. Suddenly having to be apart for a whole day, Wayne started showing signs of separation anxiety as soon as he woke up.
While Rosalynn was brushing her teeth, Wayne hugged her from behind, his chin resting on her shoulder, "What time do you get off work? Can I call you? What if I have a conflict with Ivy and Cory?”
Rosalynn turned around, leaning against the sink, looking up at Wayne, "Do you hate to see me go?"
Wayne looked pitifully at Rosalynn, then nodded, "I'm afraid that when I wake up, you'll be gone."
Rosalynn was taken aback, her eyes reddening, "I can video call you during meeting breaks. You can also come to the office with me, but now..."
"I'll be a burden if I go to the office, because I don't remember anything." Wayne was considerate.
He's way more considerate than before!
"Then wait for me to get off work, I'll come straight home as soon as the meeting is over. And, Ivy and Cory won't have a conflict with you, they both like you very much.” Rosalynn paused, then kissed Wayne, "and I love you too."
This seemed to alleviate Wayne's separation anxiety a bit.
After getting ready, Rosalynn and Wayne had breakfast together.
By this time, Ivy and Cory had also woken up.
Ivy was groggy, stumbling as she walked.
With half-closed eyes, she crawled onto Rosalynn as soon as she came out, then hung on Rosalynn like a little koala.
Rosalynn gently patted her back, "Ivy Jared, you have to take good care of daddy today."
Ivy nodded, "Mom, don’t worry."
Rosalynn explained to Wayne, "Max is a golden retriever you adopted for Ivy. In the video I showed you earlier, that's the dog Ivy was rolling around with on the lawn."
Wayne nodded, indicating that he understood.
In that video, the dog's expression seemed a bit fierce, his tongue was hanging out, swinging back and forth, Wayne was a bit worried.
"Max was almost killed by bad guys, you saved him!" Ivy quickly said, "What Paige said is true!"
"What did Paige say?" Rosalynn asked with a smile.
"Paige said, Daddy is so awesome that even the devil can't take him away!" Ivy repeated Paige's comforting words, "Dad, you saved Max, even in the face of such danger, you still came back to us, you're really the best!"
"My dad is the best!" she concluded proudly.
Wayne blushed.
He looked at Rosalynn, smiling.
