She buried father, something that was inevitable but an act she was still was not prepared to do. After she patted down the final patch of dirt on his grave, she craved a distraction.
That distraction was named Adam.
She scrubbed the scent that lingered on her body. It was an act that was supposed to temporarily relieve a pain that left her heart in pieces. With that, she didn't think of the consequences of her discretion. She wasn't thinking when she laid with him. It wasn't for love; it was a temporary distraction to not feel alone.
She stood in the shower and she wept.
But she wasn't really alone. She thought about calling her partner, what would she say. He was so far away, she knew he would be on the next plane if she asked him. She couldn't ask that of him.
She wallowed. She thought that she had earned that.
Until it came to bite her in the ass, again.
Her partner was upset. This time he did not let his anger fester, no, he openly told her how her felt. She had nothing to say. Her actions spoke louder than words. Her reply wouldn't patch anything up. Not this time.
She returned to her apartment after an arduous day. She poured a glass of wine and decided to take a shower to wash off the remains of the day. But the weight of her partner infested her brain. "My Hebrew must not have been as good as I thought because I could have sworn when I dropped you off at the airport, I said you were not alone"
Ziva stood in the shower and she wept.
