Chloe coughed lightly and excused herself saying it was just a mild cough.

"Let's forget about that, would we? come here, let us search this parcel, it seems to contain many things in it," I explained changing the topic.

I had convinced Chloe already and the earlier thoughts were pushed to the back of her mind as she hurriedly sat beside me eager to see what the big plastic bag contained.

"Where is mom?"

I demanded dragging the bag to the center of the bed carefully handling it so that it would not injure my already injured leg.

"Mom is in her room, she says she is too tired so she has gone to bed already," Chloe responded finding a space beside me to sit.

Opening the bag even wider, I searched the whole content with my eyes as I enjoyed the sweet fragrance that escaped from the bag.

"Wow! more cakes," Chloe mumbled.

I laughed, me too I was shocked with the number of cakes Nick had bought for me.
