Ky didn’t move for several long minutes, instead opting to rub her face and take deep breaths and decompress as much as was possible without actually relaxing. She had no guarantee he wouldn’t come back. That wasn’t likely, but it also wasn’t guaranteed that he wouldn’t change his mind and want to come have the last word. She couldn’t afford to let her guard down until she was certain he wouldn’t.
She also clearly couldn’t leave yet. She had no idea where he was going and no desire whatsoever to run into him again tonight. If he was going to his room, she needed to allow ample time to be sure he’d be up the stairs before she attempted to go to hers. And, well, if he’d stopped to take a break in the hall to rest after that tense interaction, she didn’t want to run into him there, either.
