I'll Explain Later

by genesssa

In this drabble, doubtless miscounted by the site, Nyssa and the Doctor take turns not explaining things to each other.

I'LL EXPLAIN LATER

Sometimes the Doctor is impossible. Yesterday, I asked him why, whenever I ask him a question, he says "I'll explain later." He replied, "I'll explain later."

Last night I was in my room thinking about Adric. The Doctor stopped by and saw me crying. "Nyssa, what's wrong?"

I sobbed, "I'll explain later."

This morning I couldn't find the Doctor. We'd materialized, so I went outside to look for him, and there he was, picking wildflowers! He quickly arranged them into a bouquet, which he gravely presented to me. "What's this for?" I asked.

Turning away, he answered, "I'll explain later."
