After her fight with Aaron, Marta had taken as many of her things that she could carry and left. She wouldn't stay with him if he was going to be like that. Though she knew that it was mostly her fault, she decided that she could blame him because that's what women were supposed to do, right? Blame the man. She needed some time to herself so she left. What she hadn't thought about when she left was the fact that she didn't really have anywhere else to go. She didn't want to move into one of the other apartments because that felt too much like really leaving him. If she found a temporary place to stay, that would be better. She could ask for forgiveness and go back home and everything would be fine. The problem with that was that she didn't really know anybody else. She couldn't impose in Dr. Emerson even though there was plenty of room at the townhouse. She didn't want to bother Bruce with the things that he was going through, and she didn't really know anybody else. So she made up her mind to just sleep on the couch in her office until she could bring herself to apologize to Aaron. Which was where she was very early in the morning, having fallen asleep with the light in her office on, a book laying on her chest. She'd fallen asleep before she could get up and lock the door. |
