"What would you like me to offer, Thomas?" Each syllable she spoke rang sharp, though not to the impassive figure across from her, but rather to herself. "Would you rather that I stay?"
Her hazel green eyes burned directly into Thomas Shelby's turquoise blue ones, and he observed how they had darkened by virtue of the fact that moisture was gathering in them.
He passively couldn't fathom her precisely then. He hasn't done so since he returned from the war. "Would you like to, Mar?"
His languid rejoinder swirled through the air, reaching her affecting heart. The way he spoke her moniker made her clamp her fists tightly, trying to gather herself.
"I regret that I do." That answer may have sprung from her heart, but she didn't know.
She is dubious. Her legs, on the other hand, felt eager to leave Small Heath.
Go. Move. Flee. Run. Run away from Thomas Shelby.
Thomas is aware of this.
He didn't actually know whether it caused him ache or joy that she would be able to leave him this time; However, he didn't get the opportunity to figure himself out.

❝I love you, and for that, I vow my absence plagues you for the rest of your cursed days.❞ she says. The words ache a little in her throat.
He gave her a sad smile. ❝You have no inkling, yet that would be heaven for the entirety of my life.❞
