When Faye Townsend got home, it was already half past seven.
If she hadn't remembered about her appointment with Clara, she might have stayed busy a bit longer.
But upon returning home, she discovered that Clara had been there for a while, playing with Darnley.
"Faye, Sister Clara has been here for quite a while, how come you're only just back?"
Faye could hear the complaint in Darnley's voice, so she stepped forward and picked him up to look at Clara: "Clara, I'm really sorry, I've been insanely busy these past few days."
"It's fine, Faye, I came early on purpose." She raised her hand to ruffle Darnley's hair: "Just as well, I can play with him for a while."
Faye smiled: "Uncle Rivers, please prepare dinner."
"Miss, everything's ready, I'll get Mrs. Li to set the table now."
Faye looked at Clara's face with some concern: "Clara, how come you look so unwell after just a few days?"
Clara sighed: "A lot has happened recently, it's really hard to sum up."
