Chapter 118 I Do Not Want To Stay At Home Alone

“Don’t you have lots of fun at school? Are you going to stay at home alone while your brothers go to school?” Arissa coaxed Jesse exasperatedly.

“No. They don’t have to go to school too. We’ll stay at home and play!” Jesse shook her head as she answered, her eyes still closed.

Arissa sighed and patted Jesse’s head.

The three boys had already gotten up.

They realized that Jesse was not with them as they brushed their teeth together.

“Mommy, is Jesse awake?” NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

“No. She’s still asleep.” Arissa started brushing her teeth.

“I’ll wake her up.” Jasper ran to the room with his toothbrush in hand.

“Jesse, wake up. Everyone will be leaving soon and you’ll be the only one left at home. What if someone comes and takes you away?” Jasper said as he pulled at the blanket.

“No!” Jesse cried sleepily.

She just wanted to go back to sleep.

“Wake up! If you don’t get up now, I’ll tell the teacher!”

“Jasper, you’re so mean!” Jesse sniffled pitifully.

“Get up quickly. Mommy got up early to make delicious food for us. We’ll eat everything and not leave any for you!”

When Jesse heard that, she got up in a hurry, but her eyes were still drooping sleepily.

Arissa entered the room after brushing her teeth and smiled when she saw Jesse’s sleepy look.

She picked Jesse up and exited the room.

“Are you still sleepy?” Arissa pinched Jesse’s nose, as she laid on her shoulder.

“Mommy!” Her adorable voice would make anyone’s heart melt.

Arissa caressed Jesse’s hair, which looked like a bird’s nest.

“Mommy, Jasper said that he would not leave anything for me to eat!”

Arissa was nonplussed as she looked at Jesse, who still had her eyes closed.

Only food would make her get up so quickly.

“If you wash your face and brush your teeth now, I’ll let you eat more later.”

“But, Mommy, I want to sleep!” Jesse whined and hugged her neck.

Arissa turned her head and kissed Jesse’s face. “Jesse, if you continue to sleep, we’ll finish our breakfast and leave. Do you want to stay at home alone?”

Jesse shook her head and rubbed her eyes. “No, I don’t want to be alone!”

“Then go wash your face and brush your teeth. I’ll send all of you to school,” Arissa coaxed as she passed Jesse her toothbrush with some toothpaste already on it.

“Jesse, come and brush your teeth. Mommy still needs to wash her face and put on makeup,” Zachary said to Jesse with a frown.

“Mommy, I’ll brush my teeth myself,” Jesse said softly.

“Okay.” Arissa patted Jesse’s head and let her down.

“Jesse, why are you so lazy today? Mommy has been up for quite a while. We need to take more initiative,” Oliver nagged Jesse.

Jesse brushed her teeth sleepily and answered, “I know, Oliver. I slept late last night.”

Arissa urged her children to hurry up as she squeezed out some facial cleanser on her palm and washed her face.

Zachary, Oliver, and Jasper grabbed their own towels.

They stood on small stools and wet their towels to wipe their faces.

Once done, they obediently placed their towels back neatly.

Zachary took Jesse’s towel and helped her wipe her face after she finished brushing her teeth.

Oliver and Jasper waited for Jesse to be done before all of them went to change their clothes.

“Hurry up, Mommy!” Jesse became very energetic and urged Arissa.

“All right!” Arissa answered with a smile and sped up.

“Go and have your breakfast first, Sweethearts! I’ll be right over!”
