Lyra didn't even think about that. Women were generally either Miss Their name or Aunt Their name.
Lyra sighed and collapsed gracefully into a chair in thr back room. "Look, really I just wanted to apologize to you. I didn't want a public scene or anything, and I didn't know he was married or with anyone. I wanted to do the right thing this time and.. well, you don't need my messy life story. But I wanted to tell you I'm sorry. I was both unprofessional and inappropriate."
She said it mostly with one breath but not too fast, just obviously desperately wanting to get it out.
"Also I guess I shouldn't have said anything at all. If it hadn't just happened and I'd had time to think and I'd known, I never would have said anything. I don't want to step into your marriage. I'm not going to ask him for anything." Not now. She'd dreamed of giving little pea a dad, even of making something with someone, but obviously that was out thr window now. "I had just thought he should know, but I had no idea all this shit was going to happen."
