Do me this honor
Dec. 21st, 2018 11:05 pmThomas planned a day. It isn't exactly their anniversary - that has come and gone - but he still wants to give Greta a lovely time. Brunch at a place they both like, followed by a matinee of a ballet performance and a walk through the park and maybe a little bit of leisurely but last minute Christmas shopping. Tea at the little cafe they had their first date.
All of it is to give Greta a day off, and more than that, to simply enjoy themselves together, not as parents or as people that needed to work. Sure, he's decided to make plans to take Saoire to see The Nutcracker now, especially since Greta thinks she'll enjoy it. But beyond that, it's rather lovely to be free of any obligation for the day.
It's easy enough to decide to walk home - it's an unseasonably nice evening and there's no rush, they can be leisurely.
"I had a lovely day. Thank you for indulging me," he says to Greta as the house comes into view.
