Chapitre 176: Chapter 176: A Family Picnic

**Olivia POV

Ken came out of nowhere. The only warning of his arrival, an excited shout echoed down the hall. He still hadn’t got the hang of his ‘inside voice.’

Like a shot he was in the room, shattering the quiet solitude. I couldn’t have been happier.

Kevin was more subtle, coming in behind and waiting to be beckoned before coming forward. There was something about hospitals that made him less than comfortable.

“Mommy,” Ken cried, up on the bed like a shot.

“Hey, baby,” I said, as he took me in a near-choking hug.

“Hi,” Kevin said, quietly, keeping his wheelchair near the door..

“Get over here,” I said.

Kevin came up beside the bed, not needing to be told twice. From my bed I hugged Ken and held Kevin’s hand tightly, tears started to roll with little choice.

“Mommy?” Ken asked.

“Happy tears, baby,” I said.

“Oh.”

The room felt smaller all of the sudden and all I wanted to do was go outside with my boys.
