Our Brother's Keeper

Lucas

I bandaged up her arm carefully after putting the right things she needed on it so it could heal

Glancing up at her, she was looking down

After finishing up, she went up to the top of the bed and laid down

I got up, walking out and going to Jr's room

I picked him up, carefully trying not to wake him

As soon as I picked him up, he plopped his little head up

He looked at me and made a weird face

" Mama? " he asked

" I'm taking you to her " I said as I walked out with him

He nodded his head while putting a arm around my neck and starting to talk all gibberish

I walked out his room and back into ours, over to the bed then

Once I made it over to her, Jr clapped

" Mama! " he said happily with a smile on his face

She looked at him and weakly smiled

Lord.... he's so innocent, he just don't know how bad she's hurting inside.

He reached out to her and I put him down

Once I put him on the bed, he crawled over to her and put the covers on his little legs

He laid in front of her, looking at her, smiling bigger

Her smile grew a little bigger and I saw a tear roll down her face

His whole facial expression changed to a confused look

" Hey... " he said

Getting out the bed, he ran to the bathroom and came back with tissue

He got back in the bed and wiped her eyes with the tissue

She smiled bigger and this time big enough to show them pearly white teeth of hers

" Thank you baby " she croaked

He nodded then laid on her, hugging her

She hugged him back

After giving her a hug, he planted a kiss on her lips

" Mmmwaauhhh " he said

She chuckled and kissed him back

" Mwauh " she said

I walked off to the bathroom and turned off the light

Afterwards I came back and laid on my side

Them two was whispering about something.. kinda.

I could hear Jr non-speaking ass.
