The next day
The only time I got to see Ivy was in small glimpses or brief, very brief words before being called back for my chores. However, after finishing the washing, I hung it out. I had woken up extra early this morning, hoping to get my chores finished early. I had been building up the courage all day, and now it was nearing. I was already talking myself out of it.
