Chapter 568

  “Just tell me you will be there… Without a doubt, and I’ll feel better.”

  “I’ll be there. Couple more days and I will be right back beside you, where I belong.” He responds genuinely.

You never mention them or seem to want to make any?” Arry pushes softly and I tense right away.

  “I like my quiet time after school, I see them all day. I guess I just feel tired and like to come home and chill out. An early night after I do some of the sewing I need to do and maybe a movie in bed… You know me… Munchies and a movie and sleep, three of my four favorite things.”
