Maura drove in silence. She was irritated, tired, and she had but one goal in mind. She wanted to finish her paperwork in peace, and there was only one place she could think of that she could get to quickly where her peace would be assured as she finished.

She chewed on her bottom lip as she thought about it. She wasn't sure she would even be welcomed. It had been a long week, and she knew that sometimes people wanted to be left alone to relax after being overly stressed for a long period of time. Still, she had always been told that she was both welcome to come any time day or night and permitted to use her key to do so.

Whether there was anyone home or not, Maura knew she could count on a safe haven. With that mental reassurance, she searched for a parking spot.
