Determined to do right by her girlfriend and also her mum had been difficult but a sense of pride sorting things out. It was a lot of juggling but she had not dropped the ball. Getting in contact with Paige was the easy part, getting actions and real life results would be a lot harder, even with her lawyers paving the road ahead smoother regarding some other aspects. Luckily she already had the week off booked but her plans for the holiday had definitely changed a fair bit. An original idea to perhaps try and convince her girlfriend into a horse riding lesson at Atlas Mountains newbie trail. Rather gentle compared to her normal route but she hoped to lure her into further adventures. Lazy mornings, lunches, little dates, just the stuff they had missed from the holiday im the busy Sol City rush. Tuesday had brought a little tired but rather happy Marlin as Xia was released into her care and had managed to at least move her basic essentials to the Manor from her apartment, or at least what was left and Carlo had been able to replace alongside Marlin. It was not perfect but she had done her best to make good from a rather bad job. Proper food, a comfy bed and alot more privacy at home. Walking out, she gently wrapped an arm around her girlfriend as they walked out, she had a long road to recover fully but was going to help her along it. ... Offering a helping hand down from the Land rover if she needed it parked up on the drive, heavy gates locked behind, and all the alarms, cameras and flood lights had been set to cover as much as possible. Finally home, well part of her however much the situation hoped that it became home home... That overly forward part had been particularly active recently having been forced to realise what she might have lost. The rather scary amount of medicines and appointments still attested to that coming up over next few months. [i][color=f6989d]"Home Xia, Finally, traffic was a pain, you ok to get down? I know this week has not exactly gone as planned but hey, il try to make the best of it. I still have you, so I'm already not doing too bad. "[/color][/i] However worried she was determined to least try and make the best of it, it just was too hard to be close to the Caribbean woman and not pick up some of her infectious drive and personality. [i][color=f6989d]"Key, you want to do the honours?"[/color][/i] Handing her own Key to the front door, it was a tiny thing but important. This was her home now, she might be in Marlins care as such, but some things were just important to do properly regardless. Leaving things open, if Xia wanted to go out if she felt up to it that was fine, if she just wanted to chill in the garden or curl up for a nap that was perfectly fine. Victoria had visited the hospital too, though her experiences made her dislike the buildings on principle to check up. It seemed Xia was kind of part of the family in a sense, Marlin was rather protective of her girlfriend right now. Xias mum, that was one meeting a marlin was a little nervous about, had she done enough? Had she done things correctly? Much as she liked the woman, this was her daughter she was looking after! Grown up or not, parents tended to be protective. What if she met Maria? Marlin could only imagine what the two would be like together. [b]Mentions[/b] [@King Tai]
