26 Tea Time

Ruby.

My arm hurt really bad, and the live-in doctor had to come to check on it. Glenda and Noelle stayed with me. Initially, the arm did not hurt as much until I realised I could not hold my babies with it. I had to miss playtime that evening. I contemplated calling Jasper about the event because I knew Brian would tell him, but I did not trust Brian, so I decided I would have to say it to him myself. I had already acted unnecessarily clingy before Jasper left, so I did not want him to think I was calling out of concern. I painfully waited until I was sure the six hours had passed, and then I called Jasper. I felt better after narrating the incident to him, but my arm still hurt, and I wondered why it hadn't healed.

"It is healing, Ruby; you are just eager to play with the twins, that is why. You have also never been injured while Jasper was absent. I believe that is why your arm is hurting more than it should. You miss him, and it has just been seven hours." Glenda said, laughing.
