He felt his heart burning with worry at the sight of her covered in sweat.
He no longer wanted the toys!
Seeing his mommy fight so hard for him, he could not bear for her to continue. He came to her side to massage her joints and arms with his small hands in hopes of quickly alleviating her soreness.
"Since Luca likes the plushies, mommy will surely win it for you."
She vowed to do that for him with a resolute look. Once she had a gulp of water, she asked for another chance at the game with her VIP ticket.
Luca stood at the side with his face flushed and lips thinly pursed. While his mother's insistence made his heart ache, it also caused warmth to spread in every pore of his being.
