Ice and Fire novel Chapter 356

"I can't fall back asleep after I wake up, so I may as well get up, " Cherry told him politely, smiling.

Jackson was obviously still worried about Grandpa and asked, "Grandpa, how are you feeling this morning? Would you like to go to the hospital?"

Andrew waved his hand and said, "No, no need for that, I'm fine. You two don't need to worry about me."

Jackson was still worried. He sat beside Grandpa and said seriously, "I suggest we have a thorough check-up to make sure."

Cherry agreed with Jackson, "I think that is the best thing to do Grandpa. We should make an appointment for you Grandpa."

Andrew shook his head, "I know better than you two what is best for me. It doesn't matter, I'm fine. You two don't need to worry about me."

Then he took Jackson's hand, looking at both his grandchildren, and sincerely assured them, "I know you think it's best for me, but I'm okay, honestly. Please, don't worry about me anymore."

Jackson and Cherry had no choice but to drop the idea of bringing Grandpa to the hospital.

"Grandpa, I'll go and see if Lily has breakfast prepared yet, " said Cherry.

"Okay, " Andrew nodded.

Then she headed off to the kitchen. Seeing Lily bustling about the kitchen, Cherry asked, "Lily, is breakfast ready yet?"

"Madam, It'll be ready in just a minute." respectfully replied Lily.

"Okay, then I'll go wake Joe up, " said Cherry.

"Okay, Madam, " replied Lily.

Cherry went upstairs to wake Joe.

Cherry found her son was fast asleep when she opened the door to his room. She walked over to his bed, and said softly, "Joe, rise and shine, it's time to get up!"

She went to the window and pulled the curtains open, allowing the sun to stream in.

The bright rays of the sun came shining through the window. Joe squinted as the light hit his sleepy eyes. He rubbed them, reluctantly sitting up leaning on one hand. He asked, "Mommy, it's so early, can't I sleep longer?"

Cherry sat on the bed's edge, looking at him, and said, "Sweetie, you went to bed so early last night, do you really need more sleep?"

"Well, no, I'm not that sleepy, but, it's weekend! I thought I could sleep in a little longer today." said Joe.
