Summary
Three months.
Three months of walking past Mulder’s desk and refusing to look at the empty chair. Three months of pretending that the silence in the basement office didn’t hum louder than the fluorescent lights.
When Walter Skinner had called her into his office and told her Mulder had been reassigned, off the books, classified even from her, she’d stood perfectly still. Hands folded. Chin lifted.
“For his safety,” Skinner had said.
“For how long?” she’d asked.
“I don’t know.”
And that had been that.
