Of course. Is it really necessary for him to live at the house, though?
You're right, I don't. I knew about Sofia, but I didn't know that. [...] I know it is. Just think of the reverse, however. If Sam had left early, and you had been angry with her for going on her own, she would have been angry and hurt that she couldn't be in the city on her own, without you watching over her. I know that argument doesn't hold water after what happened - that you feel you should have stayed with her all the time, whatever her objections might have been - but you've told me many times that I need to respect what she wants. If she wanted to go to the Capital early, and have some time to herself, wasn't that her decision? And whatever happened when she got there, that isn't her fault or yours.
