    Summary

    In part, Mara feels a little bit like an idiot. She tries to rationalize her lack of care—for how he fell back into her life like an atom bomb, how he’s still so eager to go out of his way for her, how he still talks like he’s the smartest person in the room—with the fact that she’s going through something right now. She’s having the confused musings of a lost twenty year old at the ripe age of thirty-five, and if she pretends like there isn’t a wedding band strangling her finger or that she doesn’t have a toddler waiting for her at home, all of this is reasonable. Mara hasn’t done anything wrong.

    (alternatively: matt shows up in the lobby. naturally, mara does something wrong.)
