Jade was in a much better mood by the time her cab pulled up in front of Tom's gate later in the evening. She walked down the distance from the gate to the house, and as she drew closer, her heart skipped a beat, when she saw one of Harry's cars parked in front of the house.
What was he doing here? Was he here to see Tom? She mused.
Deciding not to let his presence affect her mood or composure, she headed inside, prepared to go directly to her bedroom so she wouldn't cross paths with him.
It wasn't like she had anything against him, but if they were taking a break she didn't want to see him too often.
As she approached the stairs, ready to retreat to the sanctuary of her room, Sonia and Lucy emerged from the den, their faces lighting up at the sight of her.
"Jade, hey!" Sonia called out, a gentle smile on her face.
"Hi," Jade responded, trying to keep her voice steady.
