"Okay. It's Piggy's naptime. Talk to you later."

"All right. Bye, Mom. Bye, Piggy."

Piggy waved at Debbie happily. "Mommy, bye-bye."

Debbie blew a kiss to Piggy before hanging up.

'Little one, sorry, Mommy can't spend time with you right now, ' she thought sadly.

When she arrived back at the ward, she sat beside the bed. To her surprise, a moment later, Niles walked in. She had forgotten he worked at this hospital.

"Hi, Little Pepper," he said to her quietly.

Debbie raised her eyebrows. "Why do you call me that?"

Niles replied, "Damon calls you Pepper Nian a lot, so I guess it sounds natural."

"Why does he talk about me? He doesn't like me, so I bet he bad-mouths me a lot," she wondered, one hand cupping her chin.

Irene thought about it for a second and then asked, "Hang on. What department are you in?"

"Why?" Niles wondered.

Irene rolled her eyes at him and waved her hand with a wry smile. "Off you go."

Niles shoved his hands into the pockets of his uniform and flipped his tongue to make a noise to draw her attention. "Listen up. I'm part of the surgical department. Niles Li."
