Pulling Loose Strings Unravels...
A continuation after the Black Fairy visits Paige in Tying Up Loose Ends
It was Tuesday. The day after Miner’s Day. The event seemed to have gone well. He had spent some quality time with Grace while helping out in the community. Interacting with so many people was refreshing and something he hadn’t done in a very long time.
Jefferson felt good. Despite the threat he had received from Fiona on Sunday, it seemed his time with Grace had been ignored by the fairy. She certainly was no Evil Queen.
Perhaps he was smug about it, but he had other things to occupy his mind than worry over some two-bit villain’s treats. He was planning on going out to visit Rumpel-MacAvoy at the church when his phone buzzed in his pocket.
Can we meet sometime? I need to talk to you. Grace should be at school at the moment, but he’d never deny her a response simply because she was texting at school. He was happy to respond.
Of course. I’m always available, he sends back. I’m at home, but I can meet you in town after school. Bus stop? Oh, but he noticed she neglected to end it with the love sentiment she usually added since she figured out he was her father. He could not think of something being wrong. Everything was turning up roses lately. So, he added it to the end of his text. Love, Dad.
