Christianna
His head tilts as he considers my words. Then he nods, slowly.
“I need to request, because this is yours. So you know I respect you and your decisions,” he says. It’s a statement, not a question.
I nod, my eyes never leaving his.
He takes my other hand in his. “Christianna. May I bring in a piano so we can play together? I would like us to collaborate.”
“Yes, Erik, you may.” I give him a small smile. “Thank you for asking.”
He nods. “Good. I’m glad you are sensible.” A pause. “I have other things I want. Do you want me to ask now?”
Remy steps in. “Food is ready. You’ve already shown them where to set it up. Let’s eat while it’s hot.”
Erik releases my left hand but keeps my right clasped in his. “Agreed. Let’s eat before they start putting reminders on your phone as well.”
He tugs me gently behind him as we head toward the kitchen.
