ILY But Why?

The whole week felt like a huge toll for Topaz. Jethro knew that but he kept a brave face and stayed positive despite Topaz's hangups. She was starting to become irritable too, but Jethro was so patient.

He was looking forward to spending the weekend with her. This time, they would be at home, far from the whispers of people, from pitiful eyes. Topaz could be herself again. She did not have to endure anything here at her safe place, her home.

Jethro made sure that he was not too early or too late that Saturday morning. Although he was already up early and was already ready to go to Topaz's place at 7 am, he still waited for her good morning message. He did not want to come to her place too early. He noticed that she felt even more irritable when he arrived while she was still fixing herself. He knew that Topaz wanted to look good, look normal. It did not bother Jethro at all, but Topaz was.

"Can I go there now?" He asked Topaz through a message from f*******:. He immediately saw the three moving dots indicating that Topaz was already typing a reply.

"Of course, we are cooking pancakes. You'll just arrive perfectly in time when we are done." She replied.

Jethro hurriedly went outside and grabbed Clyde's car keys on his way out. He did not want to keep Topaz from waiting.
