... Apparently not.
Merlin.
She hadn’t left him? Or worse, died? Emily thought as he handed her a small photograph.
Upon inspection however, Emily realised the case, at least... not as she had imagined. “She’s lovely,” she said in a low voice, conscious of the fact that she was intruding on something personal. She would never have guessed that Rusty was a father, especially to one so... grown up. But a few pieces started to click into place, forming an impression. “You’re a good father....” it was easy to tell. The markers were there.
Emily handed back the photo, happy she had asked.
And calling Lola lovely made him smile. Big smile, flooding his whole face. He was proud of her, she was precocious and meant the world to him. "I try to be." He took the picture back and slipped it back into his wallet, which in turn went safely into his pocket. "She's six. I have to find the right place for her, somewhere good for her to grow up. Somewhere safe and nice." He had to be fussy about it in a way that he wouldn't if it was just himself.
"The Leaky isn't ideal, but the owner has a daughter her age, and is taking care of Lola when I'm working and looking at houses, which helps tremendously."
