The diary

(JARED'S POV)

At the close of work, I packed up, ready to leave. I was reluctant to go home at first, but then, I had to if I didn't want Sofia to create another scene. And besides, I couldn't keep running away from my own house. On arriving home, Sofia welcomed me with a hug. I recoiled at her touch, I've been doing that lately.

"Alright. I have some good news for you."

"Yes, hopefully. He thinks he's okay now, and the doctors think so too, so they'll be back from India in two days."
