Bab 232: Cut some Slack

"I think I saw Chris," mumbled Caleb, while looking at the door. Ashton turned his head around and tried to spot the said person.

"I don't think he is here, he traded places with me last night, remember"? Ashton reminded him. 

"I know, which is why I am a bit confused," Caleb frowned. 

"Dad!" Connor, who was twisting and turning in bed a while ago, jumped up. He was wide awake in a manner of a few seconds as he came down running to Caleb and jumped on him,

"Ouch" Caleb winced making Connor pull away abruptly, 

"Did I hurt you"? He asked.

"No, I am good." Caleb chuckled. "I am fine now"

Connor without any word hugged his dad and remained like that. Soon enough he heard silent sobs, "I was worried something happened to you" He mumbled. Ashton was surprised for a moment, since he technically didn't tell Connor about Caleb's mishap. but somehow he seemed to have figured it out. Or maybe he was surprised to see his dad in hospital gown.
