[Clarke doesn't announce her return. That's because she feels pretty terrible. Instead of walking out into the rest of their apartment to let Eugenides know that she's here, she sleeps. It really is around twenty hours before she wakes up. It's even longer before she heads into the rest of the apartment.
But she does do precisely that in time, stopping off to take a quick shower before going to Eugenides' room to knock on the door. It's a quick rasp of her knuckles, but he can probably guess what's going on. There aren't many people who can just appear in a bed.
At the moment, her hair is still wet, but she wears a black tank top with a pair of jeans. It's the closest to what she finds adequate now, to what she enjoys wearing. It's something—more importantly, it's her. Clarke doesn't know how she'll ever explain what happened to her.
Or whether it's even a good idea that she does in the first place.]
