 "How can you?"

 "This ..." Elise's face looked confused. She didn't know what to answer and turned to look at Brian asking the man to help her. Elise believes Brian must know the current dilemma she is feeling.

 "Mommy knows that you are busy studying and are focused on taking care of Dean right now. But Mommy's friend is begging Mommy for help. So, Mommy is also difficult to refuse."

 "Sorry Mom, I ...." Elise was silent, confused about what to say. She looked down and squeezed the hem of her shirt nervously.

 "Mom, Elise is still learning to nurture and care for Dean. She must be tired and tired of all the new things like Dean's sleeping hours that are always erratic and waking up in the middle of the night. Or Dean's fuss and cries that sometimes make Elise confused. Mommy can understand. " Brian's words really helped Elise. The woman hoped that Rena would not force her after Brian said that.
