The More the Merrier

No Trouble

Arissa glanced at the clock and was startled to find that it was already very late.

She went over to Mary. “What would you like for dinner, Mary?”

“Let’s just eat at the hospital. As I’m not a big eater, there’s no need to trouble yourselves for me.”

Mary thought about the amount of food she had brought back at noon and felt it was a waste if she did
not finish it.

“It’s no trouble,” Arissa said as she tucked Mary’s quilt in for her. “We want some dinner anyway.
There’s no trouble in having you join us. I’m just happy to be able to care for you. Are you hungry now?
I’m about to head to the hospital cafeteria to get a snack myself.”

Mary shook her head. “I’m not hungry. I just had some breakfast food with you, remember? That hasn’t
even been digested yet!”

At that moment, Ethen entered with a big bag of food. “These are from Mr. Graham, Ms. York.”

Arissa did not expect Benjamin to follow through with his promise. “What is it?”

“It’s a delicacy around these parts.” Ethen placed the box on the coffee table as he spoke. “These are
for you and the children.”

Arissa came over. “Is there anything Mary can have?”

“I asked Mr. Bailey. He said she could have these saltine crackers.”



Ethen opened a packet and filled the whole ward with its fragrant aroma.

Though they looked like dessert crepes, these crackers were of the savory kind.

With a side of horseradish sauce and sprinkled with crushed peanuts and sesame seeds, it made for a
very authentic and satiating snack.

Just looking at it made the children’s mouths water.

Jesse swallowed. “Wow! It looks delicious!”

Ethen smiled. “There’s more in there! Hurry up and have some, Ms. York. They taste their best while
they’re hot!”

Arissa nodded and gestured at Ethen. “Please, join us.”

“Would you like to try some, Mary?” she said after bringing some back to the hospital bed.

Mary waved her hand. “Enjoy it, my dear. Don’t mind me! I’m not hungry.”

“Just a taste?” Arissa coaxed, aware that the older woman was simply being polite.

Mary gazed at the remaining crackers in the box. “Do you have enough for yourselves?”

“Plenty for all,” Ethen replied with a smile as he beckoned the children to eat. “I bought enough for
everyone to each have their own packet!”

Arissa sat beside the bed and fed Mary.

“Set up the tray, will you, Issa?” Mary requested with a gesture. “I can manage on my own.”



“All right.” Arissa agreed it would be at Mary’s convenience to have a table, so she obliged the latter
before continuing to feed Mary.

“I can’t finish the entire packet,” said Mary. “Leave me a few pieces, and you can have the rest. You
can have some too, Tim!”

Mary told Arissa that as she spent most of her time lying on the bed, her digestion was so slow that she
was still full from the snack she had had prior.

“All right, Mary.”

Noticing Mary’s uncomfortable squirming, Arissa obliged the old lady by apportioning a few pieces for
her.

“Hurry up and eat it while it’s hot! I’ll do the same.”

Mary picked one up and nibbled at it slowly.

Arissa watched her for a while. She only began to eat at Mary’s second reminder.

She looked at the children and saw to her satisfaction that all six were seated and eating obediently.

“I’m going to see if Bradley is here.”

Arissa walked to the door as she ate and found the corridor outside empty.

“Have you seen Mr. Hinton, kids?” She turned back and asked the children.

“Mr. Hinton?”

“Mr. Hinton was just here!”



“Did he go to the bathroom?”

The children exchanged confused glances.

Arissa pursed her lips. Turning to glance at the corridor again, she saw Benjamin engaged in
discussion with Shaun, Kingsley, and several doctors.

She put her cracker down and hurriedly wiped the corners of her mouth before walking over.

“Why isn’t Mommy eating anymore?” Jasper wondered aloud as he hurriedly followed her to the door.

Oliver followed suit. Bringing with him his morsel, he leaned against the door to peek outside.

“Mommy went to look for Mr. Hinton!” Jasper announced, his interest piqued in an instant.

Oliver giggled.

“I don’t see anyone else. I’m positive that’s not where she went!”

Oliver glanced at Jasper as he spoke and deduced something from his brother’s expression.
