Cho slammed her bag down on her kitchen counter with a huff. She'd had the worst day. Lost out on two sales opportunities and in her frustration from those failed conversations she'd snapped at Amanda and sent the girl home early as an apology. Of course, then Cho had needed to answer the phones in the front herself and had lost track of her planning time for two upcoming events. In the evening, she'd been at a beautiful birthday party that she'd planned, candle light and crystal, and the six year old birthday girl had spent the entire night having a temper tantrum. It seemed her mother's idea of a proper birthday party clashed with a child's. All Cho could do was keep the party on schedule and do what the mother wanted.

Stomping through the flat, she snapped out of her heels and left them along with her skirt and blouse in a pile on her floor, not even wanting to pick up after herself. She wandered into the kitchen in her underthings praying to Rowena that she still had some of Mel's snacks stashed somewhere.

Cho was standing in front of the open icebox door, her hair still up in bobby pins and curls, when she heard her floo activate. Not many people had access, so she wasn't too worried about being caught in her bra and underwear, but the thought of her mother coming through and finding her in such a state had her scurrying through the flat quickly to her badroom. "Hello?" She called out from behind her half closed door, rummaging through her dresser for a long t-shirt to pull on.

Finbar had known that something was off, when his niece, Deirdre, had Flooed him to tell him about the horror of a birthday her daughter had just been to. Oh, the birthday had been amazingly planned and everything had looked absolutely stunning, but it just hadn’t been a child’s birthday party, and then she had proceeded to talk about the poor party planner who had kept a brave face and done what she could to keep it from turning into a complete disaster. After a bit of prodding, Cho’s name had come up, and he could only imagine how hard it would have been for Cho.

Not wanting to jump to any more conclusions than that, he had put on a clean shirt and had Flooed to Cho’s place, set on taking things from there, all depending on how she was taking this.

“It’s just me, babe!” he called back when he heard her voice from her bedroom. “You all right in there?” he asked as he made his way towards the bedroom door and knocked gently.

Cho breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Fin's voice answer her own. "Oh, Fin, thank Godric." She stopped foraging and stood, before realizing she now stood in front of him in just her underthings and then shook her head in embarrassment and went back to her search, grabbing a long t-shirt and throwing it on hastily. "I thought you might be my mother and that was the last thing I needed today," she said without further explanation.

Crossing the room to him she asked, "What are you doing here?" with a tired smile.

One by one, Fin picked up first Cho’s shoes, then her skirt and her blouse on his way to the bedroom. He had only just draped her clothes over a chair there, when he saw her. The look in his eyes softened as he took in the perfection that was a near-naked Cho. And then it was gone, disappeared into a long t-shirt that only made her all the more alluring.

“Deidre told me about the Clarkson birthday,” he told her simply by way of explaining. As she came closer, he set her shoes down, and opened his arms to her. Idly, as he was still looking down into her face, he smiled and let his fingers undo her hair until he could comb them through it. “So I thought you’d either need a long soak in the tub, a bottle of wine, something stronger, or a good foot-rub. Maybe all of them.”
