Re: In-person: Amy M/Si M
She wished she could tell him that they could leave and never, ever come back, but she wasn't free, and she couldn't do that. She could take a few days away, though, without it being a problem, and she knew that. She would call the manager in the morning, and she would tell him where she was going, and it would be fine. So, she took his fingers when he reached for her hand, and she squeezed. "I'll go back where you're staying. I know I can't go there, but I can stay somewhere nearby for a few days, okay? For a few days and a few days more," she promised, and, really, she kind of needed that as much as he did right now, to be somewhere close and where things weren't bad.
