It took him a full hour to correct all his mistakes, and only after that did he finally get Ellinor’s green light to step out
for an hour.
Learning from yesterday’s mistake, he put on some clean clothes without putting much effort into his appearance
and dashed out the
door.
After Byran finished his homework, Ellinor checked her phone.
Theo hadn’t accepted her money, nor had he replied to her messages.
Why was he acting so hot and cold?
First, he was so chatty that it was annoying; now he was giving her the silent treatment and ignoring her messages.

Suddenly, Bartlett texted her. “Ellinor, are you okay?”

brings you here again? Shouldn’t you be at home with Ellinor?”
Byran said righteously, “I’ve been with her all morning, so I thought I’d come and check on you. You ignored me
yesterday and didn’t have lunch with me. I was starving all day till dinner! But I’m forgiving, so it’s fine. I forgive
