Ice and Fire

Looking at Joe, who had just said that he wanted to protect his mommy, Jackson suddenly felt a little bit more happy. He was very grateful to have such a sweet son.

"Joe, " suddenly said Jackson.

"Yes, daddy, " seriously replied Joe when he saw his daddy's stern face.

"You don't have to worry about that anymore, because from now on, daddy will protect both you, and mommy, " said Jackson while he caressed Joe's wet short hair.

"Really?" Joe then happily flapped the water around him when he heard that both him and his mommy were going to be protected by Jackson. He made a big splash, and then said, "So mommy and I can lead a happy life in the future?"

After that, Joe continued to play cheerfully in the water.

However, Jackson felt very painful when he saw how delighted his son was of the good news, because he couldn't imagine the crisis that they had suffered in their hearts during the past five years. Had they been scared without his protection all this time? But everything would now change, because he said to himself that he would never allow them to feel scared ever again, and that he will spare no efforts in trying to protect them.

After he finished his bath, Joe got out of the bathroom and jumped straight into Cherry's bed. Cherry was reading a book, and when she saw Joe next to her, she drew back the quilt to let him in.

At that moment, Jackson also came to the bed, and lied down next to them.
