"Hold still now," she tells him, her fingers cleaning the cut on his knee with care.
Jack squirms and bites back the whimper that's caught in his throat.
He wants to protest that he's fine, he's not a baby, and can't she see that?
Instead he looks at the way her white hair gleams in the sun that shines through the leaves, brightening the shade.

She smoothes the bandage, one with cartoon mice on it and Jack blinks tears of gratitude away.
She kisses his forehead, the pain forgotten.
