I had no plans to work during this period. Plus, Munchkin was going to attend school, and I did not want to keep myself too busy. I had to take care of the child's schooling first and then arrange things afterward.
Since I did not have a job to worry about, I thought I would not need Theo to worry about things at home as I could do all these things.
After I finished speaking, Theo was silent for a long time.
As we spoke, Keith pulled out of the garage with the car and drove in front of us.
I was about to walk up and pull the door open, but Theo walked over to the passenger side and bent down.
Keith did not get it as much as I did. He was a little baffled while sitting in the driver's seat.
Did Theo not say that Keith could get off work after he drove the car here? Why did Theo not mean to get in the car at all?
"You can drive the car back today. By the way, inform Ruby about working overtime tonight."
Keith's face flashed a trace of surprise, but he seemed to have gotten used to Theo’s style of doing things where he would change plans on short notice. Hence, he did not ask any more questions and quickly nodded his head. He drove the car away again.
Theo put down Munchkin. "Tonight, you both will have to simply eat nearby. TH go back with you both after working late at night.
"Tomorrow, TH go with you to accompany Munchkin to choose a school. I'll let Keith be in charge of moving things over."
Theo made the arrangements as such. Munchkin heard that Theo would go with us tomorrow to choose a school for him and jumped up happily. "Yay, Daddy will come with us!"
"But I heard you have a lot of work to do. Can you get it done overnight today?" I was a little worried.
With Theo's efficiency, that was definitely no problem. However, with him cramming so much work into one night and having to spend time with Munchkin and me the next day, I was afraid he would be a little overwhelmed.
"Don’t worry, it's fine. It's just that I won't be able to join you guys for dinner today."
