Opening Up.

"So, what about Amanda's fine caretaker?" Ken asked after some time, as they both relaxed in his living room with a glass of Baileys wine in both their hands. 

"Why do you keep asking about her? You want her?" Pete asked with a scowl.

He had come all the way to Ken's house to get rid of thoughts of Kathleen, so why was Ken bringing her up again?

Ken chuckled.

He was in a better mood now, having had that discussion with Pete about Ella.

"I'm not interested in her for myself. I'm just patiently waiting for the day you will tell me you find her attractive or that you're both having an affair," he said with a grin.

"And what makes you so sure that day is going to come?" Pete asked with a scoff.

"It's only a matter of time. As long as she lives under the same roof as you..."

"She doesn't live under the same roof as me, she has a different roof. The boy's quarter roof," Pete corrected.
