Chapter 17 Getting Your Mind Right

• Pyotr
• I tried in vain to concentrate on work. The lack of sleep, Mary, the stress and all the changes of the last few days were affecting me. I couldn't focus on anything and as lunchtime approached, I decided it was best to go home and not deal with it until tomorrow.
• Mary looked confused to see me leaving, but I needed this time to get my head on straight. Especially with the engagement dinner approaching, I have no idea what Mr. Navruz might be planning.
