Chapter 617 Jesse Fell Off The Bed Benjaminâs eyes snapped open as he observed his surroundings. His guard was up. However, he didnât discover anything out of the ordinary.
He was about to go back to bed when a loud wail pierced the air.
âMommy!â
Arissa woke up instantly and scrambled out of bed. She didnât even realize she had to crawl over Benjamin to leave the bed.
She went in the direction of the wails immediately.
âSweetheart, donât cry. Iâm right here,â she coaxed patiently.
Afraid sheâd stumble, Benjamin switched on the lights hurriedly.
Arissa spotted her daughter wailing her heart out on the ground and picked her up.
âWhat happened? Hush, Sweetheart.â
âMommy...â Jesse burped pitifully and complained, âMommy, I fell off the bed!â
Stunned, Arissa checked Jesse hastily to find if the latter was injured.
âDid you injure yourself? Show me!â she urged.
Jesse shook her head. âMy butt hurts!â she sniffled.
Her small face was a mess of tears and snot was bubbling out of her nose.
Arissa wiped her tears off and unbuttoned her pajamas to check her body.
âIs she all right?â Benjamin came over to them.
Arissa stopped abruptly when she realized he was also there. She glanced at him before turning to look at the bed. Did he just sleep here?
âMommy, my butt hurts!â Jesse whined as she touched her butt.
âLet me take a look.â
Arissa observed the sore spot and massaged it gently. âDonât cry. Let me put on some ointment for you!â
Feeling sorry, Benjamin offered, âIâll go see if there is any ointment around.â
He strode toward the living room to find the ointment.
The other five kids roused and rubbed their eyes sleepily.
Worried, they asked, âMommy, what happened to Jesse?â
âJesseâs fine. You should go to bed. She fell off the bed, but sheâs fine,â Arissa assured them.
Oliver and Jasper were used to it, so they returned to bed and promptly fell asleep.
Zachary also did the same.
Jesse often fell off her bed, so this time, it didnât cause a huge ruckus.
Both Gavin and Tim gazed at Jesse worriedly, so Arissa explained the situation to them briefly.
âSweethearts, you should sleep. Jesseâs fine. The floor is covered with carpet, so she didnât hurt herself.â
âBut Jesse is crying so sadly!â Gavinâs brows scrunched up in worry.
Chuckling, Arissa patted Jesseâs back and explained, âPerhaps she got shocked after falling off the bed suddenly. Itâs fine. Hurry, sleep now!â
Tim could barely hide his concern for Jesse.
âDonât cry, Jesse.â
Arissa brought Jesse over to them and said, âLook, Sweetheart. Your brothers are worried about you.â
Jesse sniffed loudly. Tears hung on her lashes, and her nose was red. She looked like a pitiful sight.
âGavin, Tim, Iâm fine. My butt hurts, though. You should sleep. Iâm sorry for waking you up!â she said.
Both Gavin and Tim shook their heads profusely. âWeâre glad youâre fine!â
Benjamin came in with the ointment. He joined Arissa on the bed and uncapped the ointment.
The More the Merrier ï¤Chapter 616 âHere, apply some ointment for her.â
Jesse flung her arms around Arissa tightly.
Arissa patted her back to console her. âIt wonât hurt. Youâll feel better after applying the ointment.â
She coaxed Jesse patiently and told Benjamin. âGive it to me. I shall apply it on her bottom.â
Jesse rested her cheek on Arissaâs shoulder and allowed her mother to apply the ointment to her bottom. Her cheeks were pink.
Gavin and Timâs eyes turned as round as saucers.
Carefully, they wiped her tears away.
âIt doesnât hurt anymore, right?â
âYes!â
Jesse bobbed her heads and stared at her brothers.
Arissa focused her attention on applying the ointment a few times.
Benjamin sat aside and noticed that Jesseâs bottom looked slightly green. His brows furrowed together at the discovery.
âApply more ointment and more pressure. Otherwise, the bruise wonât go away,â he uttered.
Arissa paused and shot him an amused look. She pulled Jesseâs pants up without hesitation.
She found his reaction quite funny, actually.
âThat isnât a bruise.â
