Not Even After Midnight
“I think so,” Arissa said. I think so?
Gavin furrowed his brows, sensing something amiss. As the boy stared at Arissa, he wondered,
Doesn’t Mommy work with Daddy in the office? How can she not know if Daddy’s still in the office or
not?
“Mommy, did you fight with Daddy?”
“I didn’t. Don’t worry.”
After ruffling the boy’s hair, Arissa took the children’s bags and placed them on the couch.
“Sweethearts, did your teacher give you any homework?”
“Yes, Mommy. Our teacher has given us homework,” Jesse quickly answered. “Wash your hands first.
I’ll accompany you to finish them now.”
“Okay!” Jesse bobbed her head. The five older children all glanced at Arissa before running off to wash
their hands. Edwin came out with washed fruits and asked, “Mrs. Graham, shall I prepare more food for
you and the kids?”
Arissa had told Edwin that they were eating at the hospital, so Edwin had brought them food as well
when he delivered food to Mary. “Edwin, it’s fine. If they get hungry later, I’ll make them some pasta,”
Arissa replied.
Edwin nodded. “Mrs. Graham, feel free to ask anything from me.” “All right.” Arissa nodded. Edwin then
left to look at the children.
Gavin was leading his younger siblings to wash their hands before they run back to the living room. By
then, Arissa had cleaned up the coffee table. She was sitting on the carpet and waiting for them to
return.
“Come over and start working on your homework.”
The six children sat down and took out their homework. “Mommy, the teacher said that we can work on
different kinds of homework.”
Arissa glanced at the topic before helping the children with their paper-cutting exercises. She made six
different patterns for them while they assisted her. Once in a while, Edwin would bring them food and
drinks.
He was impressed by Arissa’s skillful cutting.
“Mrs. Graham, you’re amazing with your hands,” Edwin praised. “None of us knew how to do Gavin’s
homework, and Gavin stopped wanting to do it after a while.”
Arissa paused and raised her head. “Did Graham not help Gavin?”
“Mr. Graham is too busy for it.” Edwin sighed.
Gavin huffed. “Even if Daddy comes back early, he won’t do it with me. He thinks it’s childish!”
Arissa’s heart ached when she heard that, and she patted his head gently.
“I’ll do it with you from now on. It’ll be the same.”
“Okay!” Gavin smiled.
Arissa smiled in return and continued helping them out with their homework.
Zachary and Oliver had done many similar things before, but when they saw Gavin, Tim, Jasper, and
Jesse working seriously on their homework, they became excited too.
Not long after, the children completed their homework.
“Thank you, Mommy! You must be tired,” the children chorused, then came over to kiss her cheek, Tim
included.
“No problems, Sweethearts!” Arissa hugged the children and gave them kisses on their foreheads.
“Sweethearts, it’s time to shower and go to bed.”
“Okay!”
The children packed their bags and rushed to the bathrooms.
Arissa glanced out the window before going upstairs.
The first thing she did was give Jesse a shower.
After stepping into the master bedroom, she packed her things and brought them to the guest room.
Once she was done with her shower, she went to the children’s room to tuck them in.
Even after they fell asleep, Benjamin did not return.
Is he keeping that woman company?
Arissa could not help but think about that man.
As she watched the sleeping children, a sigh escaped her lips.
The kids were just asking why he hadn’t come back. They still love their daddy. Should I ask him about
it? What if he’s enjoying his time with her? Won’t I be disturbing them in that case? Forget it.
Even when midnight came, even after Arissa fell asleep, Benjamin did not return.
