"Meet us there, Damos."
I do not know whether there was room for one more in the palanquin that was brought around to the house early that morning. But it was clear that Bijou meant to spend that time alone with Marius en route to the theatre.
I left a bit ahead of them while it was still dark out, and had my own time to think on things as well.
I think.. maybe Marius was right all along about not wanting any women in the house or under foot.
