“I wish I knew what was wrong,” I muttered, staring Madeline down, who was still a bit concerned. She’d just put the kids to bed and was heading that way herself. She’d come to check on me after I’d gotten sick.

“I do too, darling,” Madeline said softly. “Best to get some sleep, alright? James got in a few minutes ago. I told him you went to the bathroom because you weren’t feeling well. Get one of the cooks to make you some soup if you think that will help.”

I smiled at her, wishing soup would fix whatever was going on. “Thanks, Madeline,” I said softly. She went off to her room. We would get paperwork situated tomorrow, and all, but for now, I needed to take her advice.

I wandered off into my bedroom, where James was getting ready for bed. He looked up from his book and gave a concerned smile. “Becca? Are you doing alright, baby?” He hesitantly approached me, and I nodded, opening my arms for a hug.
