Ambrose shook his head. He knew well enough how she felt. He took a sighing breath. How could he tell her all these things now, though - she had a rough night... wasnt' feeling good... just woke up.
With a frown, he mentally chided himself. Was he going to keep making excuses? His ears lowered as he took a deep swallow of saliva.
"It..... really was a shock to see you ...just... appear at my doorstep yesterday." He said, forcing a bit of a chuckle into his voice. "I'm sorry if I've been too overwhelmed to give you a more enthusiastic greeting. I guess.... in a way... I've felt too guilty about it all to do so. I... I was worried that my complaining to the staff might have brought you here... and... once you know the full story... I think you'll understand why that worried me..." He trailed off, trying to bridge into the topic easily. Once... once it was out of the way - once all of it was out of the way... things could be happy.... right?
