She had to hurry if she were to sneak out of the house before her father decided to drag himself out of bed. She wanted to avoid any last-minute confrontations.

Sirena’s mother abandoned the family when Sirena was only a teenager. She’s suddenly come back for a visit and has brought with her a surprise.
