She smiled as a fresh tear fell from her right eye.
“Honestly, it’s fine,” she said.
“We can do this all night,” I said. “I’ll stand right here and ask you what’s wrong. Just save us the time and tell me what’s going on. It’s my job to look after you.”

This isn’t my job…
“Seb, I promise,” she said. “It was just a bad first day. That’s all. Just a lot. I didn’t know what time you were getting home. I was just taking a minute to myself.”

She turned and walked away.
I looked at Sebastian.
“Bailey,” I said, rolling my eyes.
