For a few days more, I have the illusion that I have done the right thing and that doing the right thing means I am getting better. I am kind to myself. I bathe often. I am nice to Guy. I try to think as much as possible about Guy. I go for walks in the park. I tell myself the worst is over. It is time to put it all behind me now.

I go into the Beaufort Institute again, returning to my regular work schedule. There is one loose end to be tidied up. I send an email to Sandra. Hi Sandra, Just to give you a heads up, I thought I should let you know I won’t be returning to the external examining position next academic year – I thought the more notice I gave you the better. It looks like I might be doing a full-time maternity cover here and so my diary is going to be stuffed. I’m sure you’ve got a list but let me know if you want me to suggest some names for you. I hear Mahmoud Labaki is very good, a hard marker. Guy has worked with him a lot and really rates him – let me know if you need his contact details. See you soon I hope, Yvonne.

After this, I send an email to Marc in Human Resources. The person he found for the maternity cover has just pulled out on him, so I know he will be pleased when I tell him I can take it on after all. He emails me back immediately, delighted. It’s working, I think to myself, that’s all I can do for now, keep busy.
