...Suspicion..

Rose and Yvine brought as much food as they can to the little boy's house. They cooked some porridge for his mother and cleaned the place.

- There is so much dust in this room, we must take the mother out for some light and fresh air.

The sick mother hardly opened her eyes, they gave her some water.

She couldn't speak, but she was looking around for her son.

- Don't worry ma'am, Fred is fine. You must eat some food to gain strength.

After eating, they took her out for a bit. It has been so long since she went out.

Remy and Fred were coming back, as soon as he saw his mother, the little boy ran towards her.

- Mom, are you okay?

She smiled and hugged him.

- I...I'm....fine...

Rose leaned towards Fred while patting his head

- We will be coming every day to check up on you, I left enough food for both of you. Take care of your mother you are such a good boy.

Rose, Yvine, and Remy got back to the chief's house. A big feast was waiting for everyone as usual.
