206 A Good Life

Thea let out a long deep sigh as she looked at the electric fences protecting the whole area of Jeru's house from the veranda of her room. This was better than staying at the safe house or the Military Base. At least she could go out to work.

It was still dark outside. Today, she woke up early to prepare breakfast for Jeru and herself. Before she moved in with him, Jeru was living all by himself in the new house. He didn't have a live-in housekeeper to help him with the management of his household affairs. Only a trusted cleaning lady would come once in a while to clean the house. 

She had noticed that Jeru never bothered to have his breakfast at home before he went out every morning. He asked if she wanted to grab some breakfast somewhere yesterday, but she refused saying she would eat at the office instead. So cooking for him and preparing his breakfast was the least she could do for him.
