โmy cousin will be keeping her company as i got quite a few things to do in Scotlandโ
john stopped walking as well before he turned and looked at eloise with a soft sigh.
Eloise stopped walking, surprised by the news that Francesca would not be returning to Scotland.
โOh, I had no idea...โ she said, glancing at her for a moment.
โAnd are you quite alright with that? I mean... it hasnโt even been a year since you were married...โ
as john smiled a little, he turned his head a little before noticing the sigh. perhaps she would like to talk about what was bothering her?
โit is just me who is returning to Scotland. your sister shall be here to accompany youโ
โIt has been... a rather good few days.โ she said, turning her gaze briefly towards the garden, a soft sigh escaping her before her thoughts could settle too deeply.
โIt is quite lovely to have the family together like this. I shall miss you all when you return to Scotland.โ
as he admired the nature around them, john walked a bit slower so eloise would be able to walk beside him.
โi am well. i cannot complain, really. how about you, eloise?โ he asked. โi do miss Scotland quite a bit โฆ i was thinking of returning soonโ
