章 240: 241

“Makes sense.” Jensen said. He didn’t press or make her feel judged for turning down Tim's fondest wish.

Jensen took a step closer and inclined his head so he couldn’t be heard over Tim's giggling. The closeness raised goosebumps on her arms. "I have missed you, Kat. I just wanted to stop by and say hi. It's been a while. I sincerely hope you haven't been avoiding me"

Katherine looked down at the sidewalk, then back at him. "No, of course not. I have just been busy, that's all. I'm sure you have been too"

He nodded.

Letting him in meant he’d be in her life, in Tim's life, with all the associated risks. She wasn’t sure how she felt about that yet. Still, she knew he and Tim liked each other a lot and wasn't it fair to use her mixed feelings to prevent them from learning more about each other. So far he hadn't done anything to hurt Tim. In Fact he had been so helpful. Kinda like a Dad.
