77. Implicit Rules
Most people who had any clue to her and Roy's relationship often wondered how she did it. How did she put up with all the women that filtered through Roy's life? He always seemed to have a new lady on his arm, wining and dinning her.
Many of them told her to give up on him; he was too much of a playboy. She would just smile and tell them that she trusted him. They would shake their head at her and tell her she was a fool. She couldn't blame though. All they saw was a man who constantly flirted with women. Even her fellow comrades under his command thought this. They had found his journal with details of his dates and the women he was seeking out and deemed him a sneaky woman chaser.
They didn't know what she knew though. They didn't know that while Roy trusted those inside the Intelligence Department, he himself often did his own digging for facts. Who better to get this info from that the women closest to the men in charge? Or better yet, the women whom served them? These were the women who could tell him the most about his superiors, what they liked, and ways to please them. It was all apart of a game for Roy to find out ways to rise in favor in the eyes of the current Fuhrer. The little book carried the info he learned from each women and any potential information he might could use them for in the future to find out more information.
She knew all this information and she knew that he had to do what it took to reach his goal. There was only one unspoken rule between them in regards to his activities. It helped keep her sane and to keep her from believing all the people who told her that she should give up on him. Every night after his date, he made it a point to come by her house and have a cup of tea with her. It was that small gesture that showed her that her face was the last one he wanted to see each night.
