Jonathan came over holding a large plate of strawberries, sat down beside her, fed her one, then fed one to each of the two children. Suddenly, with a hint of sadness, he said, "It's really a pity to have missed the growth of the two kids!"
She chewed on the strawberry wearily and replied, "It's not too late to start now..."
He pondered for a moment, then leaned in close and whispered in her ear, "Or... how about we have another child? It might make up for the regret I have for you and for Agente and Josie?"
"Don't even think about it. Do you think having a child is easy?" She refused without hesitation. "Moreover, having a child is not easy, and raising one is even harder. Agente and Josie are relatively obedient, but if we end up with a child like Nola, you'd better prepare to be exhausted!"
