章節 93: What If The Baby Doesn't Like Me?

Izzy had to admit that taking care of a newborn was an excellent distraction from her grief over losing Roz. They had been together for so long that it felt like a part of her was missing now that she wasn't there anymore but her baby sort of helped fill the void.
