Making sure Edwin was following, Scarlet guided him out of the hospital and towards her home. Saying few words other than to point out where they were going, she felt happy with the silence. Suddenly her mood changed. Now she was subdued for a reason. Her house was before her. Looking up at it, her home was still in reasonable condition.

''Oh Rouge.... All that time, I never even considered keeping the house clean or tidy....''

"Edwin.... this is my home."

Saying those words lifted something within her. Her life, her whole life was out in the open. She wasn't hiding, Scarlet didn't have to hide any more. Worried to open the door, she stood by it for a moment.

''Ok, I can do this. Think happy thoughts, think about Edw- uh, ok. Just be happy....''

Momentarily confused by that thought, Scarlet opened the door without any trouble. Seeing the dusty room beyond, she didn't know what to say.
