Saying thank you with subtlety.
A day or two following her stay with Lawrence, she comes home from work to find a huge box sitting outside of her apartment door. The box doesn't betray what could be inside it, it's relatively plain, but the address on the box does. It's from a place called "Mischler's Florist" which makes the odds that they're flowers pretty likely.
To open this box outside of the apartment, which looked like it might hold a six year old child with room to spare, would be crazy. She has to drag it inside, which is no small task. It's awkward and deceptively heavy.
When she does finally get to open it, she'll find four and a half dozen pink roses and somewhere among all the carnage, a card, that says simply:
Thanks for staying.
