Ryo sat in the chair next to the one where Maura was seated and ran a hand through his dirty blonde hair. "It was fine, the same as usual." he told her. "I had to bring some work home with me though." he added, sighing softly. Now that he was settled into his job as a Spirit Specialist, things were a lot more busy than when he had first started.
When he started, he had been able to get home earlier to be with Maura and Ciara. But now, he was barely having time to even eat something most of the time. Of course, he always found a way to get home in time to see them before they fell asleep which he was thankful for. He didn't want to miss any time he could have with his daughter or with Maura.
She mentioned getting a letter from her parents and Ryo looked at the envelope she was looking at. He thought Maura's parents would have been more understanding than they had been of her pregnancy, but then again the circumstances in which she became pregnant were anything but appropriate. Still, kicking her out wasn't the right solution to it. Not that he was complaining though, he loved being around Maura and it was even better now that they lived together with their daughter.
"There's no point in holding it off Mars. Why don't you just open it?" he asked her. No matter how long she went without opening the letter, there would be a day when she had to open it and it was better sooner than later. "You know it's better to open it now." he added, placing a hand on her shoulder.
