Anna had no aspirations of becoming a professional dancer, but took evening ballet lessons at least twice weekly. Her desire was largely to remain fit and indulge in a hobby. This fit well into our lifestyle, as during these times I was expected to do all my own household chores (such as my own food shopping and laundry) so as to not disturb our joint time at home. Typically, on dancing nights, we would arrive home together, but soon part ways for the evening. Depending upon the time of her lesson, she would either depart home immediately after changing clothes, or sometimes have a light snack before departing.
