The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Joey blinked and nodded. "Okay."
Corinne helped Joey get comfortable in the bed. She draped a blanket over him before she started to talk.
"Joey, what happened today was just an accident, and I promise it won't happen again. Remember the lessons from this experience, and be more careful in the future. Also, can you promise Mommy you won't be traumatized because of it?"
Corinne was trying to counsel Joey out of worry that he might suffer from post- traumatic stress disorder.
Joey pouted pitifully. "But it was so scary... Every time I close my eyes, I see that woman hitting me... Mommy, can I go to work and come home with you every day from now on? I don't ever want to be away from you anymore."
Corinne's heart ached as her once cheerful, sensible son had become shell- shock. She gently stroked his head. "Silly boy... Daddy is back now, so Mommy doesn't have to go to work every day. I can stay home with you guys all the time!"
"Really?" Joey visibly relaxed after hearing that.
Corinne continued to gently stroke Joey's soft hair as she said, "But you should know that Mommy can be with you all the time because you're still a kid. Soon, you'll grow up to be an adult! Mommy won't be able to be with you every day by then. You'll need to be independent once you grow up because Mommy can't always stay with you, or you'll be annoyed."
Joey's gaze was firm as he said, "No way! I'll never find Mommy annoying. I want to be with Mommy forever and ever!"
Before Corinne could say anything, Jeremy walked over and pinched Joey's cheek. "You're quite the dreamer, huh? Daddy's the one that's going to be with Mommy forever and ever! You can find your own wife to be with when you grow up!"
Joey looked at Jeremy, baffled, before looking at Corinne. He then smiled. "Oh yeah! Mommy and Daddy are together again!"
Corinne smiled at Joey before giving Jeremy the side-eye. "Why did you have to talk like that to him?"
Jeremy pulled up a chair and sat next to Corinne and Joey. "This little guy is already fighting over you with me at such a young age. I have to make him understand that he needs to find his own wife when he grows up."
Corinne rolled her eyes. "I can't believe you'd feel jealous over something like that."
Jeremy did feel a tinge of jealousy, but it was not as serious as it would be in other situations.

Jeremy and Corinne's relationship had been challenging, to say the
least. They hardly had the chance to
enjoy their couple time before their four children came along. They even suffered years of separation due to external forces. Visit

How could he bear to share her with anyone else?
Suddenly, Jeremy's phone rang. He took it out, glanced at it, and stood up. "You two carry on. I need to take this call."
After that, he strode out of the ward.
Corinne did not think too much of it. She turned her focus back to Joey. "Joey, did you intentionally pee in the cave? Were you leaving a clue for Mommy?" Joey nodded.
Corinne felt heartened and affectionately patted Joey's head. "You're such a clever boy to leave such an important clue for Mommy."

Joey pouted. "I was really scared at
that time, afraid I might never see you again. You told us that should we encounter bad people, we should find a way to leave a clue for you so you
can have a chance to find us! I couldn't leave any belongings because I was tied up all over, so I
thought I'd leave my scent... That
woman had her partner carry me
down the mountain, and I peed a little
along the way... Mommy, you're not going to be mad at me, right?" Visit Popsnovel.com to read the latest chapter of this novel

Corinne shook her head. "How could
Mommy be mad at you? In fact, m
think you're level. In
very elever. Looks like
you really did listen when I was teaching you. What a good boy you are." Visit Popsnovel.com to read the latest chapter of this novel
