Eyes for You

She decided to feed him, but in the middle of the meal, his hand moved to her plate and picked up some food on the fork. She watched him move it to her mouth.

"I thought you could not move," she said

"You're feeding me so am going to do the same," he said.

She took the food into her mouth, "Doesn't it hurt?"

"I don't feel anything when I see you smile"

She chuckled and continued to feed him as he did the same.

After having lunch she fed him his medicine and let him lay back down. He got on his phone as she finished her work on the laptop keeping him company in the room.

Later in the day, Bob brought back Gabriel from school. He ran to his mother's room after she told him about his father being back.

...

"Why is she the one going and not you?" Jack asked.

Alex and Patricia laughed, "Tatiana is the CEO of the company and the event requires her to be there to represent us" Alex explained.

"Then who is going with her, she needs someone to be there with her," he said.

"Or do you just want someone to keep away the admirers from approaching her?" Eric smiled.

"Am just worried, such events are full of weird characters"

"You don't need to worry about me, I have been attending such events for a while now and I know what to do. Just stay home and rest" Tatiana smiled.

"You should all stop telling me to rest or relax. Am fine now, don't you all see I can move on my own now" he said.

"Yes, but the doctor said to wait until you can go back to work or do anything strenuous" Tatiana pushed him back down into the seat and excused herself.

"Tatiana can take care of herself so stop worrying," Eric said.

"We know your just jealous about the handsome men that are going to be around her tonight" Patricia.

"But you know she has eyes for you only so don't worry and let her go," Alex said.

Alex who had come to see Jack left after dinner and Eric and his wife who had come to stay with Jack and Gabriel while Tatiana was away made themselves comfortable.

Tatiana walked out dressed in a black women's suit with a half top under the coat and matched with black sharp heels. Her make-up was dark but toned to her skin and her shoulder-length hair was up in a bun and a few strands curly at her hair and side. She smiled seeing their reaction.

"I guess am ready"

"Yes you are, have fun and go show them who is boss" Patricia hugged her.

She kissed her son goodbye and smiled down at him. Jack., "Get to bed early and don't forget your medicine".

He watched her walk out with Bob and his frown grew deeper.

"Don't worry no one is going to take her away from you?" Eric said.
