    “Mom?” Ivy was being clingy, crawling into Rosalynn’s arms, “Where’s my brother?”


    “He’s fine,” Rosalynn’s nose tingled and tears threatened to fall, “Ivy, you have a fever.”


    “Huh?” Ivy was puzzled, lying in Rosalynn’s arms, “No wonder I can’t keep my eyes open…”


    “Don’t worry, we’ll take some medicine and you’ll be better soon.”


    Ivy didn’t resist taking the medicine, knowing it would make her feel better, and obediently let Rosalynn


    feed it to her.


    After taking the medicine, Rosalynn put a fever patch on Ivy, and held her the whole time.


    Wayne came over and saw Rosalynn secretly wiping away tears.


    His heart ached, and he took a thermometer to check Ivy’s temperature again.


    After taking the medicine, Ivy’s fever went down a bit.


    “Where’s Cory?” Rosalynn turned her face away, not wanting Wayne to see her crying.


    “He’s ying chess with Baillie. I didn’t tell him his sister is sick.”


    “Good, don’t tell him. He’ll worry,” Rosalynn replied.


    “Let me hold her, Wayne whispered.


    Rosalynn hesitated, but Wayne had already reached over and picked up Ivy.


    Rosalynn was worried that Ivy wouldn’t like it, but she sleepily opened her eyes, looked at Wayne, and


    closed them again without any sign of


    reluctance.


    She slept in Wayne’s arms for another hour.


    When she woke up, she was much more groggy than before.


    Sitting in a chair, Wayne checked her temperature again, and she still had a slight fever.


    “Mom!” Ivy suddenly remembered something, looking at Rosalynn with newfound energy. “When my


    brother had a fever on the ind, the doctor gave him ice cream. Since I have a fever, can I have ice


    cream too?”


    Rosalynn was taken aback, thenughed helplessly. “Sure, tell your dad take you to buy some.”


    Wayne was dumbfounded.


    “Can she really eat it?” He asked Rosalynn uncertainly.


    Rosalynn nodded, “Yes.”

    “Then I’ll go with her!”


    Ivy was thrilled, getting up to find her coat.


    Seeing her regain some energy, Rosalynn didn’t stop her.


    “Take good care of her, she reminded Wayne.


    Having a chance to go out alone with his daughter, Wayne was delighted


    Ivy still felt a bit groggy


    After getting dressed and walking to the door with Wayne, she thought for a moment and looked up at


    him, “I’m sick. Aren’t you going to carry me?”


    Wayne hesitated, then quickly opened his arms and picked up Ivy. “Sorry, I forgot it. I’m so careless”


    Ivy didn’t say anything, already thinking about what vor of ice cream to eat.


    By this time, the rain outside had stopped, and the sun was out.


    Wayne found a nearby convenience store and put Ivy down at the entrance, thinking she would go


    straight in.


    But before taking a step, she first held onto his fingers.


    Wayne was greatly moved.


    Soon after, they were staring at a dazzling array of ice cream, both feeling a bit lost.


    “Ivy, which one do you like?” Wayne asked.


    Ivy looked at Wayne, “I’ve never tried any of them, so it’s hard to choose. What about you? Which one


    do you think is good?”


    Wayne hesitated for a moment, then said, “Actually… I’ve never had any either.”
