No

Your mother slowly turned around, a warm smile spreading across her face as she caught sight of you crawling towards her. Her eyes sparkled with a mix of amusement and affection. She walked towards you, her heels clicking on the tile floor, the sound echoing through the kitchen. As she approached, you could smell the sweet aroma of freshly brewed coffee wafting from the cup in her hand. She stopped in front of you, her eyes locked on yours, and said, "Good morning, Amber. Are you looking for Jimmy? Awe, sweetie he has classes in the morning. And Mr. Smith is at work, it's just us girls for now!" She said, as petting your head.

As your mother's words hung in the air, a faint crease formed between your eyebrows, and your gaze faltered, breaking away from hers. You felt a pang of worry, like a tiny stone dropped into a still pond, sending ripples of unease through your mind. Jimmy's absence was a void, a hollow space that echoed with uncertainty. You tried to push the feeling aside, but it lingered, a nagging sense of discomfort that made your skin prickle beneath the leather mittens. Your mother's smile never wavered, but her eyes sparkled with a knowing glint, as if she could see the turmoil brewing inside you. She reached into the pocket of her apron and produced a pill.

"Jimmy told me to give you this if you got anxious," she said, her voice soft and soothing, as she held out the pill between her thumb and index finger. You felt a wave of relief as you gazed at the pill, your mind racing with the implications of Jimmy's instructions. "Jimmy is still taking care of me." You think reassuringly.

Your mother's eyes never left yours as she held out the pill, her gaze soft and reassuring. You don't hesitate and open your mouth. She gently placed the pill on your tongue, and you swallow.

Your mother smiled, "Don't worry, I'll take care of your while Jimmy's gone." As the pill's effects began to take hold, your mother's words became a gentle hum in the background, a soothing melody that calmed your racing thoughts.
