That wave of relief from Roxy made the snapping easier for Jess to cope with. At least she'd taken one burden off of the anchor, even if she'd given her another. [color=teal]"I was thinking,"[/color] the empath said as she jotted down the appointment time on a wall calendar, [color=teal]"mornings would be easiest. That way the shop can open back up in the afternoons."[/color] Best to have the garage open at the busiest times, for Roxy anyway. For her, it would mean facing customer after customer while in a fragile state from the sessions. Then again, that amount of work might help take her mind off things. [i]Who knows,[/i] she tried to convince herself, [i]it could suit both of us.[/i]

Once she'd had a bowl of cereal and cup of coffee, she headed back to the workout area. [color=teal]"So, uh... I'm ready if you are,"[/color] she told Roxy, moving towards the stairs and hoping for no sketchy customers. That was one thing there was no talking to a counsellor about.
