The moment they hung up, Grace felt the hair on the back of her neck stand up.
She considered turning around or just jumping from the balcony. It was quite a tall building, she would definitely definitely die from the fall.
"Don't," he said from behind her, " think about jumping. I'll jump after you."
Grace slumped and rolled her eyes. Of course he would. Did he have nothing better to do rather than just jumping from building for her?
God, if that was off the table then she had to turn around and look at him.
Which she did, Grace slowly turned around, leaning against the railing before waving her hand at him quickly. "Hi."
"Hello," Christian replied, coming halfway through and crossing the distance casually with no hurry. "Did you eat?"
"I did. I ate breakfast while talking to nonna." She answered. "She told me that he also checked in on her."
"Of course, I did. It was her first day."
