Deirdre froze for a moment when Kyran did the same thing. However, she soon snapped herself back to reality by shaking her head.
‘Why am I thinking of him again? It isn’t that Brendan is the only man in this world who would do that.‘
The snow was getting heavier as they moved forward, and small piles of snow were on their shoulders. Deirdre did not know if it was because Kyran was holding her hand that she did not feel that cold.
When they arrived at the door, Kyran stopped and typed on his phone, “We’re here.”
Deirdre patted the snow on her body and said, “Thank you.”
She went forward to open the gate, but Kyran kept standing still. She hesitated for a moment and asked, “Mr. Reed, do you want to come in and have a cup of tea?”
“Maybe next time,” Kyran quickly typed a few words on his phone. After that, he thought for a while and asked, “Didn’t you ask me if I had something to say to you last night?
“Yes, I indeed had something to say to you, but let’s talk when we meet next time. At that time, I hope you can answer my question honestly.”
Deirdre was stunned. By the time she came around to her senses, Kyran had already left.
She entered the courtyard, and Eilis was setting up the fire. When she saw Deirdre, she hastily took a towel to help wipe the snow off her body.
“What took you so late today? I was going to call you after setting up the fire.”
Deirdre smiled and replied, “Since there’s only a little bit of work left in the yard, I decided to finish it off before coming back.”
“Silly kid. Won’t you feel cold? I was going to help you after I finished mending these clothes. Anyway, sit down and warm yourself up first. I’ll go get you a cup of water.”
“Okay.”
Deirdre sat down, enjoying the warmth from the fire that petted her cheeks. She stretched her arms forward, and after chasing the coldness away, she thought about the things that Kyran had said.
He had said that he had something to ask her and that he hoped she could answer
his question honestly.
Did that mean that he had something to ask her yesterday?
‘Something that makes me look nice?‘
