“I’m worried about you.”
MEME | ACCEPTING
he was only supposed to stay long enough for eliza to give him the food that she had promised him and madison. thomas had saved her youngest son from ALMOST getting run over by a carriage in the street, so, she owed him. he only asked for her to make the sweets that she brought over awhile ago–– when martha was still alive anyways. now, they were sitting down and drinking tea, and he had spoke that DREADED sentence. ❛ thomas, i think it’s sweet that you come CLOSE to caring about me, but you don’t need to, i’m fine. ❜ but she wasn’t. philip was dead, alexander had cheated on her, and her oldest daughter was dying. she was so closed off now, no one understood that, she doesn’t think anyone can ever understand. ❛ i heard that you were running for president, you have more important things to focus on then my MENTAL health. ❜ she sent him a warm smile, but it was all FAKE. she had almost perfected the art of faking a smile, she has to, everyone uptown PITIES her.
❛ here, ❜ she stood up, getting the sweets off the counter. ❛ and thank you again for pulling my son out of the way, i owe you so much more than FOOD. i still can’t imagine why alexander doesn’t like you, although, him and i are just very different people, i guess. ❜ she swallowed a lump in her throat, reaching over and gripping his hands as she placed the neatly wrapped bag in his palms. ❛ you should probably go, he took the kids to church and then is taking them to get food. i told them that i wasn’t in the MOOD, but, i just didn’t want him knowing you were here. but, please, come more often, i could use a FRIEND like you. ❜
