[Manning T]
[Iris could see the confusion in Sam's eyes as she left, but she hoped that she'd said enough to be able to come back in a day or two and pick up in a better place.
...if she hadn't decided to leave because of her visions. Awareness? She still didn't even know what to call it.
She'd been hoping to avoid Cris, knowing it would be easier for both of them, but he was on the stairs as she held TJ's hand and went back down to the street. She gave him a smile (small, like most all of hers were) and a soft "welcome back" as TJ jumped down another step. And then she was turning her attention back to the girl, making sure that no one was going to go tumbling down the rest of the way.
It didn't take long to get back out to the street, and far from what Sam was expecting, watching from upstairs, Iris and TJ (hand in hand) began walking back toward the house. It would be a long walk, but they took the dogs for long walks. And they could always stop and rest whenever they needed to.
Iris walked them along for a block (TJ skipping along next to her) before slowing a little and pulling out her phone. While walking:]
We're walking home.
