When Thalassa woke up, it was already past three in the afternoon.
Her mom was still asleep, so she quietly got out of bed. Her stomach was growling with hunger, thinking about heading down to the diner to grab some food.
As she approached the door and swung it open, she nearly bumped into the man outside.
The guy had a handsome face with a smile in his eyes and an approachable aura that made him seem easy to get along with.
It was Callum.
Thalassa blinked in surprise before greeting him politely, “Mr. Gordon, didn’t you catch a nap?”
After speaking, she glanced toward Callum's cane, noticing a bag hanging from it, filled with what looked like takeout boxes.
He was favoring one foot, unable to put weight on it and using the cane for support, while his other foot stood firm on the ground, one hand wrapped in a bandage slung around his neck. He was clearly in a bit of a bind.
But even with his hobbling, he had brought some food for them.
Callum's face held a gentle smile as he said warmly, “Missed lunch, didn't we? I got us some food from the diner downstairs. Let's eat.”
Hearing Callum's words, Thalassa felt a small tug at her heartstrings, realizing he had indeed brought the takeout for her and her mother.
“Thalassa, who is it?” called out Evelyn from inside.
Thalassa looked back and replied, “It’s Mr. Gordon.”
“You’re up,” Callum called into the room.
“Mr. Gordon, come on in,” said Evelyn warmly.
