As Michelle got up from the bed to freshen up, she felt eyes on her. She quickly looked at the door that had now closed, and no one was there. If only Rodriguez was standing there, and she could hold him one more time... she shook her head to get rid of that thought.
She went into the bathroom and filled the tub with warm water to relax her nerves. She then grabbed a towel and got undressed, submerged herself into the water, after adding a few drops of lavender oil.
She let the water envelope her in a hug and wash away the smell of the forest and the clinic. She closed her eyes, focusing on the aroma of the lavender and the way it relaxed her tensed muscles.
After she was satisfied with the bath, she got out and opened the shower only to realize that she should have showered first before jumping into the bath.
After showering, she wrapped herself into a towel and walked out, only to see that the room was still empty. Arya hadn't returned.
