Sidney pressed his lips together, then released her hand and said, "Aveline, my mom's condition is not very stable. She gets confused sometimes, so if she says anything, please don't take it to heart." Aveline's brow furrowed. "Is her condition that serious? Have you discussed it with the doctor?" Sidney gave a helpless smile. "Her health wasn't great to begin with. After everything she's been through, it's only gotten worse. The fact that she's still holding on is thanks to the hospital care here." His voice was slightly hoarse, his eyes filled with deep, unshakable sadness.
Aveline could feel that sadness as well.

A voice cfrom inside, "Is that you, Sid?" "Yes, it's me," Sidney replied, opening a bag he held and taking out sof his mother's favorite fruits.
"Mom, I bought sfruit for you. Have a little," Sidney said gently.
Aveline saw that Ruth looked much different from when she had last seen her. Back then, she had a spirit about her.
Now, she lay in the hospital bed, looking incredibly frail, her eyes clouded and unfocused.
With a pained expression, she said, "Why spend money on that? I don't want to eat." Sidney coaxed her softly, "But I've already bought it, and I can't return it." "Then you eat it," she insisted.
Sidney chuckled. "Mom, don't you remember? I don't like these." "You...," Ruth sighed with resignation.
Under his gentle persistence, she eventually sat up and took a few bites.

Ruth turned to look at her, her eyes brightening. "Is that Miss Young?" Aveline nodded, taking hold of her extended hand. "Yes, it's me, Ma'am. You look great today; I'm sure it won't be long before you're discharged." Ruth was delighted by her words. "Miss Young, I'm so glad you came. I hope I didn't make you miss any work?" Aveline shook her head. "Not at all. I'm on vacation right now." Ruth nodded approvingly. "I've always wanted to say, we're so grateful to you. Without you, Sid wouldn't have found such a good job. You two are colleagues, right? If you ever run into any trouble, just look for him. He's a big guy, he can handle anything." "Alright, I'll keep that in mind," Aveline replied with a smile.
Ruth patted the back of her hand, then suddenly asked, "Miss Young, do you have a boyfriend?" Aveline was momentarily stunned, and Sidney quickly interjected, "Mom, try another bite. See if it's sweet."
Ruth obediently took a bite, nodded, and said, "It's sweet Migs, Young, would you like some?" Aveline shook her head. "No, thank you, Ma'am. You should eat more."
Ruth nodded with a smile, her eyes still studying Aveline. "You're som beautiful, Miss Young. I'm sure you'll find a boyfriend who will love and cherish you in the future." Sidney's expression froze for a moment; he glanced at his mother.
But she didn't look at him. She continued, "And if that boyfriend ever mistreats you, just tell Sid. He's younger than you, so treat him like a younger brother, boss him around however you like."
"Alright," Aveline agreed with a grin, then turned to Sidney. "Dittle brother, did you hear that?" Sidney chuckled, a hint of embarrassment mixed with amusement. "Yes, I heard it." RULE #1 choose married women They have reason to keep things secret, as do you.
