Summary
Feeling guilty about leaving Joel to play single parent yet again, she rises and follows, finding Joel on Ellie’s bed with her all but on his lap, face tucked against his neck. His chin is resting against her head, and as she watches from the place in the doorway, he tucks his chin enough to kiss her hair.
“Easy, baby girl,” he says, a low, soothing croon. “You’re okay, baby. I’ve gotcha.”
Ellie’s response is too low for her to hear, and based on the way Joel’s expression doesn’t change, she’s not sure it’s clear enough to actually be intelligible.
“Shh,” he hushes. “I’m here, baby girl. I’m here.”
After a few more minutes of watching Joel handle parenting with ease like he didn’t have a twenty year hiatus between children, Tess decides to lay back down.
It seems like he’s got it under control, after all.
(after settling back in jackson, tess learns that after always doing it as a single parent, joel is AWFUL at sharing when it comes to raising a kid)
