She found it hard to believe that Lyndon couldnât find himself a place to stay.
And his suitcase suggested that he was headed for a business trip.
Then, unexpectedly, Sheldon had called him, asking him to stay.
Lyndon arched an eyebrow, playing along with her assumption.
âYes, I was supposed to go on a business trip.
I came straight here after Sheldon said something happened.
â
Tildaâs fingers curled up slightly, a look of apology in her eyes.
âIâm sorry for interrupting your work.
Weâre okay now.
You donât need to worry about Sheldon.
You should continue with your plans.
â
Seeing the apology in Tildaâs eyes, Lyndon continued jesting.
âThe boarding time has passed.
I havenât changed my flight, so I canât leave tonight.
â
Upon hearing this, Tilda adjusted her glasses and made a decision.
âThen you can stay in my room tonight.
â
He had delayed his business trip for her personal matter, and she felt it would be rude to have him sleep on the sofa.
As Tilda turned to walk into the bedroom, Lyndon was briefly stunned.
âNo, thanks!â he called out after her.
He had only been joking and hadnât expected her to take him so seriously.
Tilda ignored him and proceeded to prepare the bed.
Emerging from the bathroom, Sheldon ran up to Lyndon, eyes wide with curiosity.
âDad, I heard Tilda offer you her room for the night.
Are you going to share a bed?â
Lyndon burst out laughing at the innocent question.
He lifted Sheldon up and playfully flicked his forehead.
âCome on, thatâs not the case.
â
Sheldon rubbed his forehead.
âDad, youâre not proactive enough,â he accused.
Lyndon raised an eyebrow.
âWhy do you say that?â
âWerenât you the one who said you planned to have Tilda as your girlfriend? Why havenât you succeeded yet? There seems to be Limited progress in your relationship.
â
So that was it!
