Day 3
I had a harder time waking Brother up this morning to come with me to walk Hayate; I think he's really exhausted from all of the work he did yesterday. I talked to him before he left and it didn't sound like he thought he'd be finished today either. I hope he isn't trying to push himself too hard; he just keeps saying that he'll finally be able to show up Roy, but I'm still not sure I entirely believe him.
He tries so hard to keep things from us, even now, especially when he thinks it makes him weak… I suppose I understand it, it's just that he's not very good at it, so he ends up worrying the people that care about him, and sometimes for no good reason…
Hayate and I had a pretty uneventful day otherwise: We spent most of the day at the park, like yesterday, and visited Brother at HQ for lunch and dinner. He was a bit more distracted today, but I think he did enjoy the distraction a bit, and not having to walk home alone. He and Roy usually walk home together, but with Roy out of town he would have had to walk alone. Now that I think about it, I probably wouldn't have let him walk home alone anyway, especially with how late he's had to stay at the office.
Well, Hayate seems to be enjoying himself, so maybe we can make this our routine for the rest of the week.
To be continued…
