"We have one more thing to talk about," Matty said, as she walked into the bathroom, closing the door behind her.


Bill pulled open the shower curtain slightly and poked his head out.

"In case you haven't noticed, I am taking a shower here."


Matty walked to the toilet, put the seat down and sat on it.

"You really should keep the seat down, especially when you have company."


Bill stared at her.

"Again, can I have some privacy. I want to take a shower, pack and get out of here."


Matty nodded.

"Yea I kinda figured that by the way you were talking."


"It wasn't a secret, Matty. I told you flat out that I am leaving."

Bill closed the curtain and continued his shower.

"Now, can you please leave?"


Matty sighed.

"No can do, Bill. There is one more thing I need to tell you about last night."


Bill's head appeared through the shower curtain again.

"I'm not engaged to that huge man, am I?"


Matty shook her head.

"Nothing like that. No marriage, no engagements. Nothing embarrassing."


Bill closed the curtain once again.

"Good then I have no legal bonds to this place."


"Well," Matty whispered.

"Thats not exactly accurate."


Bill's head slowly appeared from the shower, for a third time.

"What does that mean?"


Matty was silent.


"Matty?"


Matty let out a long breath.

"Well, when we came back here last night, we had a beer. While we were talking ...

Well more like while I was talking and you were slurring, you came to a decision."


"How could I come to any decision? I don't even remember coming back to the house."


"I know that," Matty seemed to apologize.

"But you still did something."


"I didn't hurt you, did I?"


"No. No. No.

You were actually very sweet, but there was a point where I went to the bathroom. When I returned, you were sitting at the desk."
