Yvette sted, lifted her head, and saw him awake, was both surprised and delighted. “Josiah, you’re awake?” It wasn’t Sienna. It was Yvette
Josiah’s raised hand quickly fell. He thought, Of course, it can’t be Sienna Sienna doesnt want me anymore
“Feeling better?” Yvette raised her hand to check Josiah’s forehead temperature
“Much better” Josiah turned his face away, leaving Yvette’s hand hanging in the air. “It’s just sweat,” he said, “Don’t dirty your hands. I feel much

When Josiah came out of the bathroom, Yvette had back and waved to him from the dining table, “All done! Come over here. I ordered some porridge with side dishes. It’s tasty and easy to digest”
