He knew that he could put him down in any of the different vessels that they had, but for right now, it just seemed like it was the most natural thing to do. Just to hold the baby close to him and at least let him feel that somebody was there. It's what they would be encouraging in the hospital.
And the baby didn't seem to mind too much. Every once in a while, he'd wiggle or squirm, but it was just to get readjusted into a new position. Soon he had him propped up against his chest as they both were watching the TV. Jonathan knew that the baby couldn't actually see that far, but it was interesting to see how the baby reacted to different leaps in colors. It was like his own science experiment that was going on right in front of his eyes in his living room. Jade finally opened her eyes a little bit and looked at the two of them, and kind of smiled and then closed her eye

The next few days were quiet, and Jonathan was preparing to go to work. It was already late in the evening, and luckily he already knew that the baby had been fed a few times and that there was a bottle next to her, so if things got to be a little bit rough while he was gone, she would be set up. She had only been taking over-the-counter medication for the past two days. Though the pain was still there, it wasn't as great as it had been. The incision seemed to be closing well, and there didn't seem to be any signs of infection, so he was OK with leaving her. Though he really didn't want to.The way that he figured it was today would be the day that she would actually be discharged from the hospital. He wasn't exactly thrilled with the fact that he was going to be about 1/2 an hour away. Something happened to her; however, her phone was next to her, and she could make phone calls. He had already added her phone number to his plan, and the number swi

He sent a text message to her just checking in and was not surprised when he got an immediate response saying that everything was fine. That took a lot of his mind. And he was able to concentrate. He was finishing up his reports that he was going over the toxicology reports for a few of their patients. And he was noting everything in the correct file. Most of what he did was paperwork. It wasn't exciting at all. A lot of people thought that his job could possibly be one of the most exciting, but it really wasn't. It was long and tedious and sometimes very boring. Though he enjoyed doing what he did, it was one of those things that he found was not exactly would you plan for.He also knew that he had some that tech about two hours ago to go find a terminal that he can use to pull up the information. It had been that long, at least when is surprisingly, as soon as he thought about it, the man showed up out of nowhere. He had a stack full of files in

The two men put off all the work for that they had to do for the rest of the night and began digging through the files. They were not only looking up Jade's records, but now they were looking up others as well. And there was something exactly seven months before. As well. The woman had been brought into the hospital with severe abdominal pain. There was nothing really written that much into the charts, but it was enough to give both men an idea of what she was actually there for.The stepmother had gone through a miscarriage.Jonathan was starting to put everything together, and that's when he realized that Jade and everything that Jade had gone through was something that had been planned for months to a year beforehand. She had suffered at the woman's hands for years. It was claimed to see through all the different files and case incidents that the woman had been trying to get rid of her.Jade had trusted a person who had worked for

Jonathan sat in his office for the rest of his shift. He had already finished most of the paperwork that he was supposed to finish and knew that he needed to save some for tomorrow because it didn't look like they were going to have any new patients was a good idea to have. He was contemplating how he was going to handle everything when he got back to the house. She had already shifted the way that she was sleeping, so she would probably be awake when he got there. He wasn't gonna be able to hide anything from her. But he didn't actually want to talk to her at the same time. It was the worst oxymoron that he had ever encountered.Never in his adult life here can you ever be put in a position the way that he was? He knew that he was probably jumping to conclusions, but at the same time, he knew that this was how people of that particular social status often acted. The fact was that he had the information right in front of him, and he had to process it the way tha

Jonathan went over every bit of detail that he found through the medical records. He waited for her to actually IG knowledge HP's as he moved on. The more important thing was that he was figuring out how to get to the conclusion when she looked up at him. “the bastard was having an affair with my stepmother, wasn't he?” she asked as the tears filled her eyes. “The last time she was rushed to the emergency room, she was complaining of stomach pains. And I'm not completely an idiot. I thought it was a little weird that the person who had worked for us for so long all of suddenly taken an interest in me. It seemed really genuine. Now I'm glad I didn't name him after his biological father. Instead, I told the person that was actually decent.”“damn, so sorry, I didn't mean to upset you. I wanted you to know what was going on around you so just in case I'm not there, you can make the correct decisions for yourself,” h

“If you're serious about this, then I'll go ahead & the papers. You're gonna have to sign them too.” Jade said as she looked at the paper that he had given her. He had two copies of them, and one of them, he had already filled out all of his information as well. It was something that he had never thought that he was actually going down to fill out, but it was something that he knew deep down that this was what he was supposed to do. This is the reason why Jade was put in his path. Nothing else mattered right now besides Raylin and the way that he was going to grow up.“I'm serious.” instead of as he looked at gene. There were going to be a lot of things that they disagreed on when it came to raising the baby. But for right now, this was the thing that they could agree on together. This would be making sure that the baby had the best type of life that was free from ever having to worry about the other woman trying to get

Jade called her father's job the next day. The secretary that she had come to know and care for was actually really surprised to hear from her. That was when Jade was informed that her father was overseas for the time being, and it was expected to stay there for a few months. Something had come up with one of the companies that he had to rush off in the middle of the night. It was like nobody at the company actually knew what was going on in the man's personal life. That was perfectly fine as well. They didn't really expect that she would be able to talk to him. When she didn't leave a message for him at all, it was something that the secretary knew was not right. However, Jade knew that there was no way that she could fix her family's problems right now.Jade had to come up with an adult solution right now on her own. She had to do the responsible thing, and she had to be an adult. This was not something that she was used to having t

Three days later, the two of them sat on a bench, the baby next to them. They were waiting for the judge to be done with the people that have been in front of them. This was not exactly how either one of them had planned to get married, but this was what they were going to get for the moment. They just wanted to get it done so he could fill out the paperwork so he could get her on his insurance. The next few days were going to be a little difficult because she was getting to the point where she really needed to take a shower. And he wasn't sure if it was OK for her too. They had been working things out with baby wipes for the moment, but it just wasn't doing anything for her. She had lost her hair that morning for the first time in almost a week and a half. As she put it, it made her feel so much better just being able to stand a little bit. She was able to do that and work for a little bit before the payment started to really get to be too much.

Jake tried to smile knowing that I couldn't possibly work. She looked at him with her wide eyes and then she reached out and touched his face. “Jonathan do you know how I actually feel about you?”“no I don't.” he replied as he looked at her and he could feel his muscles pulling into her direction.“I married you because I had some kind of feeling for you. I didn't know what it was at the time I always chalked it up that it was more gratitude than anything else. But that's not the case anymore. Throughout this entire thing you have been by my side and you have been the one to help me without question. You allowed me to have the time that I needed to figure everything out including how to be a mother and a life.

It was like she was cutting Jonathan off and it was really starting to get to him. There were only so many times that he could rearrange the boxes in the garage or move things around in the house.
