Olivia had not come to Mina's home with the intention of chatting. She had come to set up a cover story for herself, but the later it became, the more guilty she felt. Jay's father had come to get her, and Willow's uncle had called her telling her it was too late for an unmarried woman to be out of the house.
Eventually it was just the two of them and it gave Olivia the confidence to tell Mina that she wanted to use her as an excuse. Mina did not seem shocked or surprised, and she looked as though she expected it. She laid out ground rules, telling Olivia that she needed to be back in the apartment by 2AM, and then she gave the woman a spare key.
"I don't agree with sneaking around, but I think I already know why you have to. If Cylus finds out, I will feign ignorance and if you miss curfew more than twice; I am telling." Olivia nodded and wrapped Mina into a hug so tight that it hurt. "Just be careful."
