Chương 491: Cousin Not Girlfriend

Candace sat on the bed as she watched Jamal dress up in readiness for Tom to drive them to the hospital when he gets back.

"Jam?"

"Hm?" he asked distractedly, and Candace smiled at how adult-like he sounded.

"Why are you so silent? What are you thinking about?" she asked, and he gazed at her.

"I was just wondering if grandpa Aaron is okay. Do you think I should hold his hands again when we get to the hospital?" Jamal asked, and Candace smiled.

"You seem to care about him a lot."

"Yes, I do," Jamal said as he tried to stay still while his mother brushed his hair.

"Why is that?" she asked, and he shrugged.

"Lucy and Tom care about him," he said simply, and Candace giggled, wondering what she had been expecting to hear.

Of course, he cared about Aaron because the two people he loved had shown him Aaron was important to them.

"Do you think he is a good person?" Candace asked, and Jamal bobbed his head.
