Baby Robbie said, "Am I wrong? You love to gossip and you like to dig out other people's secrets so much so that you would dig three feet under just to find out someone's secrets. I don't know what else you'll be if you're not an excavator?” 1
Josephine was so angry that she waved her fist and wanted to punch Baby Robbie. Baby Robbie ran around the house, jumping around. Josephine chased after him for a long time before she started huffing and puffing due to how out of breath she was. No matter how she ran, she still could not even graze her fingers past Baby Robbie's clothes.
Jay watched the happily fighting aunt and nephew while standing on the sidelines. Although he was caught by surprise by the changes in 'Jenson' who was now suddenly sunny and active, it did not seem too bad if this were to become his permanent personality.
Because their driver was not around, Josephine was tasked to drive them to Kentucky while Jay and Baby Robbie sat at the back. Josephine purposely adjusted the rearview mirror so that she could keep an eye on ' Jenson'.
Baby Robbie sat on Jay's lap. His soft hands touched his daddy's nose for a bit. Then, he touched his daddy’s hair. In short, he did not stop touching his
daddy.
"Does this child have a hyperactive disorder?” Josephine could not help from asking.
Jay's gaze darkened. In the past, Jenson would always sit like a mannequin while riding in the car. Today,' Jenson' was touching and kicking about as if he could not sit still for a moment.
There was a hint of worry within Jay's gaze. To prevent his son from noticing the changes in his emotions, Jay turned to look out the window.
Outside the window, cars zoomed along the road. The streets were well lit, so the city looked bustling. A myriad of colors shone into his eyes but all he could see was black, white, and grey.
He was pondering the fact that Rose was leaving tomorrow. Jenson's condition would slowly stabilize once she left Jenson forever. Later on, he would slowly improve and might even recover.
Whether the heavens were going to give him a reserved Jenson or an active Jenson, as long as he was healthy, that was all that mattered.
Baby Robbie was enjoying his pizza from Kentucky. Jay and Josephine were as insipid as chewing wax when they saw how Baby Robbie eating the pizza. He looked like he regularly ate pizza even though that was not the case.
