She'd needed last night, Isabel realized. After everything that had happened, she needed a night of being quiet and feeling safe.
Eventually she'd made it back to her room. After a shower, she'd called her mom, feigning surprise at the news of the destruction of the Meta-Chem, and quickly changing the subject to the cleaning supplies that were currently working busily around the room.
"I know mom," she said eventually. "Yes, we'll be out for dinner soon. I promise. Bye." Isabel hung up her phone and opened her laptop. Solitaire would be a good way to not think for the afternoon.

Although personally I've always been partial to the pout with puppy eyes." Teasing and pretending everything was alright was just easier, Isabel realized.
