Chapter 61 Her Unease

• Blake POV
• She stands, glancing around, her expression one of realization and maybe even a bit of regret. “You didn’t really think this through, did you?” I ask gently, catching her eye. “In your mind, you’d just show up here and everything would fall into place, right? But the reality of being around each other all the time—none of us considered how that would feel.”
• Her gaze drops, and I can see that thought sinking in. “Back at your place, you were mostly alone because Jenni worked,” I continue, “and now you’re not getting that downtime. We all need to remember that we each need our own space and time alone; otherwise, it’s just going to feel… crowded.”
