Authors: and Khloé Kardashian Kim Kourtney
Dollhouse (20 page)
Kass smiled wearily—she felt like she’d run a marathon—and leaned back against the pillows, taking in the scene around her. Kat and Benjy were trying to revive Beau, waving a bottle of hand sanitizer under his nose. Kyle was showing Bree how to change diapers, demonstrating with a linen dinner napkin and a blue “Congratulations on Your New Baby Boy!” teddy bear that she’d gotten in the gift store downstairs. Kamille was rocking Alex back and forth and singing “Express Yourself” to him lullaby-style, off-key.
Everything was back to normal again.
