Philippe had been exceedingly sorry. He had been away for almost half a year, which had way surpassed his expectation. They had their moments together, but there was so much that the webcam could show. He had noticed Reese putting on a little weight, but that was something thta he felt secretly relieved, for he had appeared to be very tired and exhausted during the first few weeks of him leaving.

Philippe had been working like a dog, with the setting up of the branch at the most crucial moment. He had only time for a fleeting chat with Reese and Ollie. He hoped he could be able to br back as soon as possible. It would be a surprise for Reese. He had even booked the ricket back, but in the end was forced to delay it further. He sighed in disappointment looking at the ticket. He really mised them. Reese also looked a bit off. He seemed to grunt sometimes when they were webcamming, and sometimes looked to be having difficulty lifting Ollie up to get his little face in the cam as well. Philippe was a little worried even though Reese always brushed it off.
