Joshua really felt the pain and whimpered, “Hisssd”
“Just bear with it. It’ll be over soon,” Cynthia rubbed his head, comforting him as she
would comfort any other child.

The doctor was speechless.
Things were not going as he had planned!
She should be kissing his boo or mocking him for being unable to bear the pain!
