(yea that could work as well. horu would be annoyed with James because his husband seemed to not feel for his wife and didn't understand how painful it was for Horu to have milk filled breasts.)

(i am not quite sure why is Horu crying here. In my mind it would be normal if he's a bit disappointed... but not so serious that he was crying. If he cries now is it because he was angry with James for making the kids cry?)

"Horu? i thought you'd fallen asleep already. i saw you yawning earlier." James climbed up the bed. Seeing his children so clingy to him, asking him for story after story was making him quite happy - James always loved it when the kids showed how much they loved their daddy. However, it also made him feel guilty because he knew most of his was due to the fact he couldn't join in the school picnic.

the room in their shared bedroom was dim. James climbed up ad settled on bed, not seeing Horu's face properly yet. "Horu?" James sat on the bed and circled Horu from behind. He rested his head on his wife's shoulder. "what are you looking at?" he asked curiously, since his wife seemed quite determined not to let him see his face.
