Everett’s mind clearly didn’t approach this one. He paused for several seconds before gently patting Dorothy's hand, "Your health isn't the best right now. I do want another child, but not under these circumstances."
He was still unsure about the extent of the poison lingering in her system. Talking about having a child now felt almost like a death sentence to her.
"Oh." She muttered.
Everett had made his stance clear, and knowing Dorothy, she wasn't one to push back.
But that night, she seemed less than cooperative with Everett.
After one attempt, Dorothy claimed she was too tired. She retreated to the bathroom for a shower, and then curled up under the covers to sleep.
Everett had a hunch about what was bothering her, but didn’t know what to do.
He could just take a cold shower to cool off.
...
The next morning, by the time Dorothy woke up, Everett had already left for the office.
Still, he had taken the time to prepare oatmeal, keeping it warm, and left her a note.
Their relationship seemed to have momentarily regressed to their early cohabitation days.
[I dropped off Abigail and Langston at school. Have breakfast when you wake up, then get in touch with Kevin. Everett.]
Dorothy carefully preserved the note, and then made her way to the dining room to eat while calling Kevin, "Did Everett tell you about me taking over the project?"
