Daphne felt this brooding feeling wash over her, although she knew that it was his emotions more than hers. "Perhaps, I can drop off Liam at Ella's later, if you'd like. I can talk to Millicent about it, or I can take the kids if she needs some time to herself."
She turned her face to put a small kiss on his temple, her fingers still rubbing on his shoulder. It wasn't like her to be comforting, but really, nothing that she had done lately seemed like her at all. And yet, she wasn't unhappy somehow.
Daphne smiled back as he tried his best to look somewhat happy. She took a sip of her own drink, nodding. He didn't need to say anything else. "Yeah...I know."
