Marta and Elyse finished their breakfast and Elyse insisted on washing the dishes. Marta was more than happy to oblige with that. She hated dishes. Then the pair headed back to Elyse's room so Marta could get her things. She would likely head straight to Kallisti after the session for school work. They had decided to keep the air mattress here, Elyse was hoping she could stay again sometime. It had been a nice change of pace for her, and for Elyse too. Even now Elyse smelled differently. The last few times Marta had seen her, her emotions had churned so much it was almost dizzying. Now, she still seemed sad and upset, but it was under control. Marta had asked about her sadness, and Elyse had just told her that she would be okay and not to worry. It was hard to not worry.
Marta grabbed her bag and gave Elyse a hug. "Thanks for letting me stay with you for the night. It was a lot of fun," Marta said.
"Of course. We will have to do it again sometime," Marta smiled at Elyse. "Would you like me to be there at first?"
Marta shook her head. "No, I can handle it. Sterling will be there, and if the worst happens, Splash can let you know. I don't think I'll panic though." She hugged Elyse again. "Have a good day, Elyse. I'll see you soon."
Elyse wished her the same and Marta headed downstairs to the dojo. Sterling, early as always, sat on the couch scrolling through her wallet. Marta plopped down next to her. "Sup?" she asked with a smirk as Splash gave Sterling's hand a lick in greeting.
