“Daddy.” he whispered, before his eyes shut once more.

With the flush from the alcohol adding a rosy glow to his handsome face, Marcus looked even more charming.

The tension between Marcus and Melissa grew noticeable, even the nurse felt it. She quickly gathered her things and rushed out to fetch a new thermometer.
Marcus sat on the beds edge, letting Matthew rest against his shoulder.
Matthew made a face and complained, “Daddy, you smell Like wine” After hearing that, Marcus gently placed Matthew on the bed, and then stepped into the bathroom for a moment, removing his wool coat. When he came back, he seemed more composed than before.
The nurse returned with a fresh thermometer, checked Matthew's temperature again, and mentioned, “He's still running a low fever.
But he'll be fine. Just keep an eye on his temperature, in case it spikes again” Melissa nodded in understanding and dismissed the nurse.
