The Returning Ex

Sophia only agreed after a long pause. John knew that she really wanted to join in the fun, but she really shouldn’t go. Putting his arms around Sophia’s shoulders, he took her into the living room and told the others that he had something to do, so he would be leaving first.

William, Matilda, and Old Mrs. Constance all knew what he was going to do, so they didn’t probe any further and only told him to come back as soon as possible. John patted Sophia’s head before turning around and leaving.

Sophia pouted, still looking unhappy. Seeing her unsatisfied look, Matilda beckoned to her. “Come and sit down.”

Going over and sitting next to Matilda, Sophia grumbled to her in a low voice along the lines of John refusing to bring her out with him. Matilda stroked her back. “If you go over, he’ll have to look after you. You’re now pregnant, so it’s only right that you go out less.”

Sophia pulled a long face and stopped talking.
