The Day I Kissed An Older Man by Cher the Cherished

Jeremy looked at Francine with half-narrowed eyes and an indecipherable expression.

Francine had seen how Jeremy broke down after receiving news of Corinne’s death, so she knew just how important she was to him. She also understood Jeremy must be feeling all sorts of emotions, so it was best for her to give the couple some space.

Corinne walked up to him. “Hey, Mister.”

Only when she got closer did she realize Jeremy was holding an unlit cigarette between his fingers. She did not know why, but it seemed like it had been a long time since Jeremy smoked.

Jeremy threw the unlit cigarette to a trash can not far away before taking off his jacket and putting it around Corinne’s shoulders. After that, he silently turned and left.

Corinne frowned and followed after him.

As dense as Francine could be sometimes, even she could tell something was off about the way her brother and sister-in-law interacted with each other. Not daring to walk too close to them, she waited until they were a few meters away before silently following after them.
