Too Late To Love Me I Already Left With His Twins (Lydia and Dave) novel Chapter 166

SICE

Untouched bed.

Touched pajamas.

Untouched excitement.

At that point I knew.

Something was definitely wrong.

Only Ava was dressed and ready for breakfast downstairs.

I walked toward Eli again and sat beside him.

“Baby,” I said softly. “Come on. Bath time.”

Usually bathing Eli required negotiations, arguments, dramatic speeches about independence, and somehow constitutional rights..

Today?

Nothing.

He simply let me

y him.

Completely cooperative.

Half asleep against my shoulder.

And honestly that scared me more than anything else.

I bathed him slowly myself, washing his hair while he rested weakly against me with barely enough energy to complain.

My chest tightened harder with every passing second.

Maybe it was stress, I tried convincing myself.

Maybe all the excitement overwhelmed him.

Eli had not fallen sick properly since preschool.

Maybe his body was tired.

Maybe–

I carried him downstairs afterward wrapped in one of his favorite towels before changing him into soft clothes.

Breakfast was already ready.

Pancakes.

Fruit.

Scrambled eggs.

Things he normally attacked like survival depended on it.

But he barely touched anything.

SICK

No chatter.

complaints.

No random conversations about dinosaurs or why waffles deserved political representation.

Just quiet.

Overdid
