*Tallon*
“Jesus Christ, if I’d known this was going to be such a fucking ordeal, I would have started this project months ago!” Alessandro cursed under his breath.
I couldn’t stop the chuckle from erupting from my chest. My brother jabbed his elbow back, striking me in the arm in response. Unfortunately, this only made me laugh even louder.
“It’s not funny, Tallon,” he gritted through his teeth.
Good God. It felt like ages since I’d seen the guy become so worked up over something. Normally this sort of reaction was geared toward an outside threat. But lately, my brother had become his own worst enemy… well, more or less, his anxiety had.
Ever since he told me that he was thinking about finally popping the question to Mia, the man was coming apart at the seams due to excessive worrying. I wasn’t entirely sure if he was worried that Mia would say no or if he was just concerned about screwing up the proposal all on his own.
Regardless, I gave him my full sympathy.
