My theory however, is, Nate was actually Frank's punishment but he found a way to avoid it.
'I'm going to put Kolin to sleep. He has a fever and I don't want it to progress.' I stood up and went to the kitchen to get a bottle of water.
After a woman I met at antenatal told me about how her child almost choked in the middle of the night, I always slept with a bottle of water close to my bed.
'Why don't you call a doctor and maybe get some drugs?' He asked.
'I'll ask Eric to help me get drugs from the pharmacy.' I smiled.
I was smiling because I did not want him to make a big deal of it. Letting mum know about Kolin was the last thing on my mind.
'Hey, I'm going home.' Eric came to the kitchen.
'Is mum asleep?' I asked.
'No but she'll be fine.' He came to hug me.
I really did need the hug, I needed to know someone was by my side.
'Kolin has a fever, do you mind getting some drugs for him from the drug store?' I asked.
