Excerpt from the upcoming 6th chapter of ‘Molly’s Turn’

Sadie:

“ When John Watson had left the two little ones to their own devices (it may sound ludicrous, but after the smacking Sherlock received beforehand, he could depend on a short period of good behavior), the first thing he’d done was stand in the middle of the sitting room and look around, marveling at the stillness of all surrounding him, from the pair of well-used armchairs on one side of the room to the short table on the other, with an empty bottle, a full sippy-cup, and the first dummy that Sherlock started the day with before chaos reigned.

Then he’d had a good, long (muffled) laugh at the absurdity of the juxtaposition of it all. “
