Theo kept moaning in Charlotte's arms.

Charlotte tried to put him to bed and make him sleep, but Theo begged her to hug him, saying he needed to.

After much thought, Charlotte laid on the bed with Theo in her arms.

She patted Theo on the back and sang a lullaby, and the baby fell asleep with his face in her arms.

Charlotte was worried about Theo and tried to check his condition with her eyes wide open all night.

But strangely enough, she felt sleepy.

Her eyelids kept falling, even when she opened her eyes and pressed them.

She kept yawning.

Then she slept without realizing it.

When Charlotte came to her senses again, the light was faintly seeping through the curtains.

Once she examined her surroundings, she came to her senses as if someone had poured ice water on her head.

"Theo?"

Charlotte quickly looked at Theo in her arms.

He was sleeping with his hands folded together like a baby in his mother's womb.

His breathing was evidently more relaxed and calmer than before, but Charlotte was still worried, she examined Theo's condition more carefully.

Theo, who was as pale as grey, had returned to his normal skin tone, and his cheeks were plump with a peach colour.

The red fever that was on his face, neck, and arms disappeared.

Most of all, he no longer had a fever.

The forehead, which she only touched out of doubt, was rather cold, not hot.

"Did the effect of the Medicine come in late?"

Charlotte tapped Theo's belly, which had become thinner overnight, and raised her hand slightly to his left chest.

She felt his heart beating faster and more forcefully than before under her palm, which was a big hand for the size of his heart.

This time, tears fell with a different meaning.

She was so grateful and proud of this little boy for not giving up on his life.

"Thank goodness."

Charlotte rested her forehead on Theo's small forehead.

Theo seemed gentle in his sleep, wondering if he could feel her warmth.

"Thank you for staying alive, Theo."

She didn't want to cry, but her voice was hoarse.

Theo muttered as if responding to Charlotte's words.

"My sister..."

"Yes, your sister is here. Do you still want to sleep more? "

"'Pudding..."

'Huh?'

'I.... Theo would like to...eat..."

Charlotte burst into laughter at his words.

Perhaps Theo was still in dreamland now.

"Yeah, let's eat the pudding we couldn't have yesterday."

"Mio...too..."

Charlotte hugged Theo tightly and smiled slightly.

"Yeah, let's go see the Mio too."
