He Croaked!

I need food!

Jerlina placed her hand over her rumbling stomach. She tried to move her legs but she couldn't move even an inch. As she was wondering if she should shout for food, she heard the door open. And immediately, she closed her eyes. 

She didn't know why, but she did.

Alright, she did know why. She didn't want to walk and wanted to be carried by him.

His big hand warmed up her forehead and his soothing voice warmed her soul. 

"Honeybuns, dinner is ready!" 

"Jeryl," he kissed her cheek as she didn't move. "Wake up! Have dinner and sleep afterward."

"Mmm…" she hummed and wrapped her hand around his neck. "Carry…" she whispered.

Jeremy's lips curved to a smile. He picked her up and walked down the stairs. She rarely acts like this and he wanted to treasure it.
