"I mean it had crossed my mind. But that would be your call." Joseph felt a little shy, which wasn't like him. He could be in a business meeting and be under heavy fire with his employees and not feel as unnerved as he did right now. "So what do you think?" He added.
April wasn't sure if he was teasing or if he had really gone next door and bought a whole house just to keep her close by, so she asked "About moving next door? You already bought it, didn't you?"
Joseph answered honestly, "Yes." He had hoped she wouldn't be annoyed by his presumptuous tactics at keeping her close by.
April giggled, "Okay."
"You said yes!" Joseph beamed at her response. His gamble had paid off, he was overjoyed with her response.
"You're surprised?" April smiled at his behaviour, she wasn't aware that she had impacted his life so much that he would buy a whole house just to stay close. Is this what family is, she wondered.
