Normally she takes as much care with her appearance here as she does at home-- impeccable makeup, fairly formal clothes, hair in perfect order-- but for some reason she ran out in a hurry yesterday. Who can remember.
"I didn't know you cooked without a phone," she teases. Pot, kettle; the occasional baking of chicken to throw on top of a bagged salad does not a gourmet make.
She doesn't argue the point, when instead of if. It's probably a bad idea to make a habit of sleeping with your coworker, even therapeutically and platonically. Someone is bound to get the wrong idea.
(In the privacy of her own mind, she can admit it might be her.)
Should they be holding hands again? Somehow it feels different to reach out this morning, though she won't shy away if he does; he just checked his balance, he'd know if he needs it. Probably.
Her fingers itch to grab his, though. Perhaps she's been too permissive with herself.
