Stewart And Jean
“But that was crazy. What was she going to do, quit her job? It was absurd to have shot Kevin and moved to New York and still be intimidated by the incident. In comparison to those two steps, taking a bunch of sick days seemed pathetically ineffective.
At the office she made a point of smiling at everyone and saying hello and being especially cheerful. To polite inquiries after her health, she responded with a wave of her hand and the assurance that it had been nothing. In public Marissa got... the same sort of greeting as everyone else, which hurt her feelings some. But when she poked her head into Jean’s cubicle and asked again how she was doing, Jean granted her a wry shrug.
Something about the way Marissa’s eyes seemed so carefully loaded with concern, about her hushed and serious tone, worried Jean. She saw that Marissa wanted to talk about this stuff. Jean didn’t feel particularly like talking about it anymore, but she sensed that if Marissa couldn’t converse about it with her, she’d find someone else.MoreLess
