Chapter 1777 Gay Brother, Straight Sister, What?:>Ep10

• We left it there. Time to get back to work. We had accomplished a major part of what needed to be done to make the house livable. Of course, we found a bunch of things that we needed or needed to do. We could take it at a slower pace, though.

At one point I thought that leaving her to try to make her life without my complications would be best for her. Quickly discarded that because I couldn't make that choice for her. Only she could send me away. Finally resolved to not press her, or myself. Just try to continue as we had been. Obviously not the same as I'd exposed myself.
