Oh, that's pretty much a foregone conclusion.
What might be funny is if she runs into Renee - in pretty much the exact same outfit as she has on.
Carl-E:
Yes! Same plaid shirt... wait, wasn't Marten wearing that one the other day?
Anyway, there is another angle to Padma. We've all seen how flighty she is. This may be the first time she's ever really fallen for anyone...
And she's scared. Really, really cared, and doesn't know how to handle it. So she's using the time-honored technique of avoidance.
It's not going to end well, methinks.
jwhouk:
It never ends well in this strip, does it?

It would probably be better for everyone concerned if Faye respected Marten's choice of how to handle this and left it alone. But that's unlikely, so expect highjinks at tSB when Faye goes on the warpath.

Again, personal experience. From my own experience, people aren't nearly as predictable. For example, my best friend (as in, he is like my brother to me) lost his father to cancer three years ago. Now, as his father underwent treatment, we talked once a week. When his father recovered, we hung out more, like we did. This went on for about a year. Then nothing for about a month, no returning my phone calls, messages, ignoring everyone he knew. Well, just as I was about to track him down, he turned up at the front door, his father had died that morning. It had turned out that during the month, his father's cancer returned, metastasized very quickly, resulting in him being moved into a hospice where he later died.
Point is, even from personal experience, there is no way in knowing exactly how people are reacting to something as traumatic as a loved one dying.
