Zane answered, "Next Monday" "Tomorrow's Saturday.." Willow murmured while counting down the days in her mind. Then, she announced her plan, "It's settled! Let's cook dinner as a family on Sunday." She eagerly wanted to experience the life of a regular family of three. Zane met my eyes, concerned that I would say no to Willow. However, I didn't mind it one bit. "Sure!" Zane relaxed upon hearing that. He caressed Willow's cheek and said, "We'll do as you say, then." On the other hand, Zachary hadn't eaten anything since he got hearlier. He was so hungry that his stomach kept churning and making bubbling sounds. Desperate, he opened the fridge to check if there was anything to eat.
Alas, the fridge was empty. Zachary rubbed his tummy while checking the freezer, which had plenty of ice cream.
He hesitated, knowing Annalise, whom he referred to as "Mean Mommy," didn't let him eat ice cream often because it was bad for the stomach "But Mean Mommy and Daddy were already divorced. She can't controlanymore! I can eat whatever I want now!" Zachary thought. He ate one ice cream but still felt hungry, so he ate more. Eventually, all the ice cream left him feeling chilly, and his stomach hurt a lot. That was when the door clicked open. Following that, Zachary could hear Jessica and Steven merrily chatting "Zachary will be happy once he sees all these things we bought him." A smiling Jessica added, "Don't you agree, Steven?" One could tell from Steven's voice that he went along with everything Jessica said. "Yeah, he's always hoping you can spoil and shower him with affection! I bet he'll be touched to know you went to prepare a surprise for him even though you're pregnant" Jessica only called out for Zachary after receiving the former's assurance. "Zachary!" Zachary was in so much pain that he had no energy left. He unconsciously broke out in cold sweat, which dribbled down from his forebead. "I'm over here!" He wondered what surprise his new mommy had prepared for him. When Steven heard how weak Zachary sounded, he rushed to the latter at once His face darkened when he saw all the opened ice cream packaging on the ground. Yet, he knew that wasn't the tto lecture his son. He picked Zachary up, rushed into the car, and floured the accelerator to take Zachary to the hospital.
Annalise was always busy caring for Zachary whenever the latter had health issues. Now that Annalise and Steven had divorced, Steven had to do everything alone.

"He's still a kid! He wouldn't know his limits like an adult would. How could you let him have that much ice cream? Steven didn't know what to say, so he could only patiently listen to the former's complaints
"Daddy.." Zachary weakly snuggled closer to Steven's chest as he asked, "Why can't Mommy Jessie keepcompany? Mommy used to stay withwhenever I felt sick in the past "
Now that Jessica had becZachary's mot, he felt she should be by his side whenever he was sick. Steven couldn't bear to see Zachary so weak since the latter was his flesh and blood "Moramy Jessie has a baby in her tummy. She can't wear herself out too much." Zachary couldn't understand that. "But why could Mommy still look afterwhen she was pr pregnant with a baby?"
