I currently lay in bed with a sleepy Tobias.

I'm not gaining weight

I'm not even feeling pains.

I smile, get up, and walk into the kitchen to see Tobias turning off the smoke detector and the stove burning.

Shailene shakes her head and grabs the cereal from the cabinet.

Tobias opens his mouth but I say something first.

Yup.

Things are back to normal and the way they should be…
