New Day

The next morning, Thora and Chris are at the table eating breakfast. Thora has Felix curled up on her lap.

“So what was up with you last night why the late night dissapearing act?” Thora implored.

“Honestly, I don’t know, I think I was just a lil bored and I needed to get out, ya know that kind of thing.” Chris answered as he looked into Thora’s eyes.

Thora looked down at Felix still sitting in her lap. She stroked his head.

Thora looked back at Chris, with a contemplative look.

“What made you feel bored?” Thora asked.

“I dunno, the movie was over and we were just sitting around, so I felt like going for a drive to clear my mind, ya know, I have been stressed a bit with the whole un employment thing, ya know?” Chris answered his expression changing.

Thora took his hand in hers.. She looked at him with a sympathetic look.

“Aww Chrissie.. It’s gonna be ok.. I had no idea you felt so stressed. you will find a job.. its just gonna take time.” She said.

Chris smiled.. and nodded.
