Clive was irritably ruffling his hair. Did he not want the child? Of course he did. He yearned to have a child with Alice, but her difficult pregnancy and severe condition were driving him to the brink of frustration. She was unable to keep down any food and had lost a considerable amount of weight since the pregnancy began. It was an incredibly stressful experience for him as well.
In his eyes, his wife’s well-being took precedence over the unborn child.
Sonny approached Clive, gazing curiously at his uncle. Something sparkled in the little boy’s eyes like stars in the night sky.
“Uncle!” Sonny greeted Clive warmly.
Clive looked down at Sonny. The boy was remarkably healthy, his skin radiating a bright red tint. Despite his young age, he already seemed destined to grow into a handsome young man. He was adorable, resembling a life-sized doll that had stepped out of a storybook.
Whenever people encountered him, they felt an overwhelming urge to hug him tightly and shower him with affection. Clive was no exception to Sonny’s charms.
He lifted Sonny into his arms.
“Uncle, are you feeling sad? Is everything okay?”
Sonny was very sensitive and could sense Clive’s restless mood. He wrapped his arms around Clive’s neck and planted a gentle kiss on his cheek to comfort him. “Mom kisses me whenever I’m feeling sad. It makes me feel better.”
“Do you feel better now?”
Clive was completely taken by Sonny’s innocent display of affection and smiled. He rubbed his cheek against Sonny’s and said lovingly, “Uncle feels better for now.”
