It was 6:23 by the time I returned home after dropping off Isabella and Sophie. Other than almost dying today, everything else had gone according to plan and I felt quite accomplished.
The only thing left for today was a nice evening meal and I was very much looking forward to it.
Climbing past Martha's apartment, I got to my room and after freshening up, I waited and waited and by 7:10 just when I had begun wondering if Valera had failed her mission there was a knock on my door.
"She's so going to be pissed" I shuddered as I walked to answer the door.
Martha had spoken against involving Valera in our Matter and well I had just gone and done that.
Honestly, as I opened the door I was ready to dodge a pot of hot soup being thrown at me but no such thing came in sight.
"Martha" I called as opened the door and stared at the bombshell behind the door, my eyes studying her with interest and liking that she held a bag.
