Bab 303: Alice's last warning

"That's... sudden. Besides, you don't know me that well."

"I plan to."

She fell quiet. George quietly watched her as she had fallen in thought. He walked over and leaned forward, but leaving a healthy gap between their faces as he untucked the piece of the sheet keeping her restrained. "Take your time to think about this and let me know."

Nora watched him leave and reminded unmoving, still baffled. "What the fuck am I supposed to do with this?"

George set up their plates at the counter in the kitchen. He sat, looking at his phone, going through messages and important emails. He had left Amy a message that he would be visiting Joanne and she had responded agreeing to a phone call.

A very punctual George was growing impatient when Nora finally came out and joined him. She sat down opposite him and he put his phone away before they started filling their plates. He could feel her eyes on him, watching his every move.
