Catherine waited for Sean at home all afternoon.
Catherine held the phone and thought about it. Then she decided to call him.
"Hello?"
"How's it going?"
"I'll tell you when I come back."
"When will you come home?"
"Ten minutes away."
Catherine was hugely relieved and said, "I'll wait for you at home."
Sean smiled and answered, "Okay."
Sean liked it when Catherine referred to his mansion as her home. That meant she felt a sense of belonging.
"Catherine, Samuel's class ends at five. I'll go home to pack up a few things and return with him."
"Okay, I'll ask Geoffrey to drive you."
Susan asked Catherine if there was anything she should be aware of about the dinner. Catherine told her to prepare the meal as usual.
Catherine tried to check on Sophia. But she decided against it at the door of the guest room.
Catherine needed to be alone. Maybe thinking nothing would help it.
