Nina froze for a moment, glancing at Amelia and then Nelson.

Normally, if she saw Amelia feeding another child, she would have been upset.
But thinking of how Nelson had saved her, she felt he was a very good boy.
Nina nodded seriously, then opened her mouth wide toward Benjamin.
Benjamin was ready-he scooped up a bite of food and gently fed it to her.
Both little ones were starving after everything that had happened.
Benjamin and Amelia made sure the kids were completely full first, then quietly finished the leftovers themselves.
The remaining food had gone a bit cold, but neither of them minded. They ate quickly and tidied up the small table.
Just as they were finishing, the Wilson family arrived along with William and Daniel.
William and Daniel had come straight from the police station.
They brought the latest update as soon as they walked in.
Daniel said, “The driver isn’t saying a word, but the police are digging into him hard.
“Lucas is staying on top of the case over there. He’ll let us know the second there’s any progress.
“How are Nina and Nelson doing?”
A whole crowd of adults poured into the room.
If this had been a shy child, being surrounded by so many people-even family-might have felt overwhelming.
But Nina? She thrived on it.
The moment she saw the room fill up, she didn’t hesitate for even a second. She immediately sprang into action.
“Grandpa, hug!
“Grandma, hug!
“Un-coo!
“Auntie!”
She went around greeting everyone and giving out enthusiastic hugs.
Finally, she climbed right onto William’s lap, sat down comfortably, snitlled, and launched into her complaint.
“Car hit me! Boom! Hit me!”

They already knew what had happened, but hearing he say it in her own small, shaky voice still broke their hearts all over again.
The whole room took turns comforting Nina who’d had such a scary day. They didn’t forget Nelson either.
He received just as much concern and gratitude.
The Wilson family even offered to take Nelson home with them so he could recover there.
Amelia and Benjamin politely turned them down.
After spending a good while in the hospital room, everyone finally brought the two children back home together.
On the drive, Nina was thrilled to see that Nelson was coming with them.
“Nelson, you come my house?”
“I have doggy! So big!
“Nelson, you come?”
Amelia had reminded her many times not to touch Nelson because of his injuries, so Nina tried her best. She tilted her chubby little face, carefully keeping her hands to herself, and just chattered away at him.
She repeated herself a lot. Nelson never once looked annoyed.
He nodded quietly. “Yes, Nina. I’ll go to your house.”
Nina beamed, her little mouth stretching into a huge grin. “Yeah!”
She was the most welcoming little host imaginable.
Her chatter didn’t stop for a second.
Amelia had to reach over and gently pinch her lips shut twice.
She sighed, “Nina, that’s enough talking now. Let Nelson have some quiet time.”
Even pinching her mouth didn’t work.
Nina’s lips got squished into a perfect duck pout. Thinking Amelia was playing a game, she started bouncing and kicking even more excitedly on Amelia’s lap.
Amelia felt utterly exhausted.
When they finally got home, Amelia set up a small bed fight next to the big one in her and Benjamin’s
room.
“Nelson, this will be your spot for now. If you need anything at all, just tell Benjamin or me, okay?
“Don’t feel shy about asking. You’re still so little. You need someone to take care of you.
“You don’t have to be polite with us. Promise?”

Amelia spoke to him with the gentlest voice she could manage. Benjamin, meanwhile, had finished assembling the small bed himself. Then he brought in child-sized crutch and a little wheelchair.

He’d carried Nelson in and out of the car and up to the oom earlier. Now he was preparing these things not because he didn’t want to carry him anymore, but because he thought they would make things easier for Nelson.
