Lois had no sooner gotten outside that she was crying. Heavily, at that. Perhaps she should have been glad she was wearing waterproof mascara, but at the moment, she really didn't give a damn.
She also didn't seem to give a damn that she was unprotected. It was 9:30, well after dark, and she knew there were probably all sorts of vampires and demons roaming the city streets. She probably should have found someone to escort her back to the apartment, or called Chris, perhaps. But she wasn't so sure her son wanted anything to do with her right now, not after he'd found out what she'd done with that monster.
Lois felt... alone.
She felt more alone than she had in the entirety of the last three months, even more alone than she'd felt when she watched her fiance's life slip away, as she cradled him in her arms.
Overwhelmed with the oncoming flood of emotions, Lois stopped walking, and found herself leaning back against the wall of a closed building.
She took a few deep breaths, and tried to compose herself.
