#Chapter195
/"Mummy, mummy/" I hear Mara call out from inside the house making me pull back. Ryland sighs letting me go and following me inside.
I go hunt for Mara and find her in the living room playing with her blocks on the floor, repeatedly screaming mummy.
/"What's wrong?/" I ask her and she looks up. A silly smile on her cheeky face.
/"Nothing is wrong, she is just calling out for no reason/" Thaddeus says, walking in with a bottle in his hand.
/"Come on munchkin, nap time/" he says, scooping her up and walking upstairs with her. I follow but go to our room wanting to shower and wash any lingering scent of the mailman from me.
Ryland follows me around as I grab clothes out of the drawer. I grab some shorts and a singlet out only for him to take them and toss them back in the drawer.
/"You don't need those,/" he says.
/"I do when I get out/" I tell him, grabbing them back out, he tosses them back in the drawer.
