Kelsie leaned forward to tug his cheeks, her face softening into a smile as she sat up.
"Have you three had breakfast? If not, go do so. Mommy will be down in a bit."
Jesse sat up, his eager eyes following her every move as he queried, "What about that… Adler man?"
Turning to look at him, she batted her eyelids in surprise, realizing he was really serious.
"Mommy will, uh… think about it."
His serious face immediately eased into a bright smile as he hopped out of her bed, "Okay!"
And just like that, his sour mood vanished and he skipped out of the room happily.
She showered, changed into casual clothes and drove them to school.

"Is that you, Ms. Sutton?" A familiar voice suddenly called out behind her in the hallway.
Kelsie didn't stop walking and briefly glanced back at Charlotte Hastings.
Seeing it was really her, Charlotte smiled and hurried toward her.
