Listen To Mommy
Arissa hugged her six children and stroked their heads fondly. The children smiled happily, delighted at
her show of motherly love. No one said a word, yet it was still a heart-warming and cozy scene.
Benjamin woke up when they were almost at the hospital. He arched a brow when he saw Arissa and
the children hugging each other. Jesse noticed he was awake and exclaimed, “Mr. Graham’s up!”
She stared at him with her adorable, large eyes, and Benjamin mussed her head fondly as he
straightened himself in his seat. The blanket over his knees slipped off. Instead of picking it up, he
turned to look at Arissa, who was still preoccupied with entertaining the kids.
A concerned Jasper piped up, “You can sleep a bit longer if you’re tired, Mr. Graham. We promise we’ll
be quiet!” “It’s fine. I already had a good rest.”
After reassuring his son, Benjamin lifted his wrist and checked his watch. He had slept for almost half
an hour. It was the best rest he had gotten in the past two days.
“Were we too noisy? Did we wake you up?” Arissa asked when she noticed Benjamin’s furrowed
brows. “No!” Benjamin returned her stare. “Why didn’t you wake me up when we picked the children up
at school?”
Arissa’s eyes lit up with humor as she explained, “You were sleeping so soundly that I couldn’t bear to
wake you up, so I fetched the kids myself. They were so happy when they knew you came along!”
Zachary and the others looked away in embarrassment. Benjamin looked at the six children crowding
Arissa’s lap and patted the seat beside him.
“Come on! Sit over here. Don’t crowd your mommy!” To his dismay, the children glanced at him before
hugging Arissa even tighter.
Arissa was delighted. Benjamin side-eyed her before massaging his temples to feel more refreshed.
Concerned, Arissa suggested, “Why don’t you sleep a little longer if you’re tired?”
“It’s fine,” Benjamin replied curtly before picking up his tablet to work again. Arissa stared at him
wordlessly.
Gavin observed their exchange attentively and said to Benjamin, “Daddy, why are you so disobedient?
Listen to Mommy! If she asks you to rest, rest! What a worrisome fellow!”
Benjamin froze and glanced at his son while Arissa hastily looked elsewhere.
A second later, he stroked Gavin’s hair and said, “Don’t worry about me. The sooner I get this done, the
sooner I can sleep at night!”
Gavin merely huffed pettily in response. “I’m not worried about you!”
His behavior brought a smirk to Benjamin’s face.
Realizing the other kids were staring at him, Benjamin asked gently, “Is anyone still bullying you at
school?”
Thankfully, they shook their heads in unison.
“Not anymore,” replied Oliver.
When the boy saw that Benjamin’s eyes were bloodshot, he asked, “Mr. Graham, do you want to get
your eyes checked?”
Benjamin was touched by his concern. He reassured, “It’s okay. I’m just lacking sleep.”
“Then you need to rest more!” Jasper insisted with a pout.
Tim chimed in worriedly, “You should sleep more, Mr. Graham. Don’t tire yourself out, or you’ll fall sick!”
Nodding, Benjamin promised, “Okay! I’ll take your advice!”
He set aside his tablet and pulled Tim, Jasper, and Oliver into his arms.
“Are you coping well in school?”
The three boys stared at him and nodded. “Yup!”
“Are you keeping up, Tim?”
Despite meeting the school beforehand, Benjamin remained worried that Tim would struggle to keep up
during his first time in school.
Tim nodded and said, “I’m keeping up. The teacher always makes sure to teach me anything I don’t
know.”
“Plus, we’re there, Mr. Graham. We’re teaching Tim too!” Jasper offered with a smile.
“That’s great!” Relieved, Benjamin nodded in approval. “I’ll teach you some stuff later tonight too!”
The children were excited.
Jesse boasted happily, “Yesterday, Mommy helped us with our homework. This morning, the teacher
praised us for our work. We even won first place!”
Surprised, Benjamin looked at Arissa and asked, “What homework?”
“Paper-cutting. Mommy’s so good at it! And you complained it was childish!” Gavin muttered before
pursing his lips.
Benjamin raised his brows in interest.
