𒊹︎︎︎ Worry and loneliness.

Inez sat in the car while chewing on her crisps and looking out of the window. Today has been tiring for both of them. They had ventured to every corner of London in a span of 7 hours. From the changing of guards in the Buckingham palace to the British museum, they had enjoyed every second of it.

"Are you tired?" she heard Theo whisper beside her as head snapped towards his direction. He was leaning carelessly against the seat as his elbow rested on the window pane with his face on top of his clenched fist.

Theo was a great companion, he took her to all the famous tourist attractions of London and narrated various famous stories related to the concerned place. Inez had smiled all day, she was happy that someone took out time just for her. Something her parents never did, even though they loved her more than anything.

"No I am fine. I enjoyed a lot, thank you Theo" she said with a small smile, some part of her was still upset about something and she didn't know why. Theo frowned as he kept looking at her.

He looked forward without saying anything "Ben you know where to go" he said to the elderly driver as Ben happily nodded as he gave Theo a glance on the rearview mirror.

"Where are we going?" Inez questioned as she looked at him suspiciously. Apparently she didn't fully trust him yet.

"Don't look so suspicious darling. We are just going for dinner" Theo said with a small smirk as he pinched her chubby cheeks. "Ow!" Inez hissed while rubbing her cheeks and glaring at him. Theo chuckled while scrolling through his phone.

"Hello John" Theodore greeted the man as they entered a high end restaurant. The man had dirty blonde hair and looked in his late 40s, dressed in expensive armani suit as he hugged Theo while laughing out their manly laugh.

"Good to see you Mr. Cunningham it's been a while!" John greeted as he raised his finger and called a waiter. He looked like a respectable person there, the owner maybe. Inez's eyes roamed about the impeccable restaurant and noticed that everyone was dressed in expensive clothings and rare jewels.

She looked down, feeling a little embarrassed. She was dressed like the teenager she was, jeans and shirt. "And who might this young lady be?" she heard John say as she looked up at him and smiled.

"She's my niece, it's her birthday today and we are here to celebrate" Theo said while smiling widely as John's eyes widened in delight.

"Oh that's wonderful! Let me show you two to your tables!" he said happily as Inez gave him a pseudo smile and kept looking down while following behind them. Theo noticed her uneasiness as he saw her clutching her hands and biting her lips in nervousness.
