She didn't trust herself to look at him as he walked out that door. It might be believed that he had offended her; Let the doorman spread that gossip then, it would be better than the truth.
Her heart thumped as he brushed by. She closed the door and let herself crumble into the cool wood, a hand pressed to her core as she gasped for breaths. What had gotten into her? She felt her forehead for a fever, moving down to feel the heat across her neck.
She was a little flushed. Yes, must be coming down with the flu.
She pressed the bell for her ladies maid and lowered herself on the couch. No more appointments would be made. No, perhaps it was time for an early bed...
She didn't feel like herself.
She didn't feel like herself at all.
