Ernie tried his best to give Hannah some space on their way home. Not in the way that he was ignoring her, but he wanted her to be able to process the overload of information without him smothering her. So when they returned home, he gave her a soft kiss on the cheek when she mentioned lying down. "I think that's a good idea. I'll make you some herbal tea and milk?"
He moved towards the kitchen and was busy grabbing the kettle when she mentioned needing to tell him something. Her tone and words left him a bit concerned, but he kept it from his face, instead giving her an encouraging smile. "Of course, what is it? I'm all ears."
