His eyes widened.
“You did?” he asked, his expression turning to one of absolute joy. “That’s wonderful! Oh my God, Katelynn, yes! That, that’s wonderful! It’s easy access for you and, and I can come around and see you and help you when you move in and… oh my gosh. Yes!” Jack can’t help but wrap his arms around her gently, hugging her. “Congratulations…!”
She wanted to be happy with him but there was still the matter of…
“E-Except that Destruction Worker wants to help me move stuff…I don’t know if you want to help if he’s there..”
“…” he went quiet with his arms around her, unsure of what to say. No. He didn’t want that man near her. He didn’t want DW doing the work that her boyfriend should. But he didn’t have a car. He couldn’t lift heavy things.
Again, another friendly reminder of how weak he was.
“He can help.” he said gently, pulling back to look at her. “I mean he’s. He’s your friend, right?”
