Luca’s heart warmed up when Tommy’s hand grabbed one of the shopping bags. Sean, who had been waiting next to Tommy, also smiled.

The full shopping bag was quite heavy, and Luca did not want to trouble the child. She shook her head and said, “It’s fine. I can carry it myself. You don’t have to wait for me at the entrance. Just sit in the car next time.”

Tommy grinned childishly and said, “I want to see you as soon as possible, Ms. Luca.”

Sean said, “Master Tommy really likes you. We went upstairs earlier but saw that you’re not home yet, so he insisted on waiting for you at the entrance. I can’t park the car at the entrance, so I parked at the side of the road, and we waited for you.”

Luca nodded. The weather was cooling down, but it was not too cold yet, so the child could wait there without suffering any ill effects other than slightly sore legs. However, it would be winter soon, and she did not want the child to wait for her in the cold.

She considered giving him a set of spare keys for the apartment, but she remembered that Luke was keeping a close eye on her. If Tommy had her house keys, Luke would be able to go inside whenever he liked.

She had nothing to hide from Luke, but Luke was a cautious man, and she was worried that he might find something.

After arriving at that thought, she rejected the idea.

She moved both shopping bags to her left hand and held Tommy’s hand with her right. “Alright, let’s go upstairs.”

Tommy held Luca’s hand happily. Sean said, “I’ll be leaving Master Tommy to your care, Dr. Craw. I’ll come back later to pick him up.”

“Alright,” Luca replied and led Tommy into the apartment.

Back at her house, Luca first prepared some cut fruit for Tommy as usual. She saw Tommy taking out several workbooks from his backpack, so she asked him, “Do you have a lot of homework today?”

“It’s not a lot, but I don’t know how to answer some of the questions,” Tommy said with a smile. He actually knew how to do them, but he wanted Luca to guide her.
