Well, you'd have no one way of getting it from the fic itself, I don't think, but when I was writing it, I was working under the assumption that her rape would come before the end of the following week. I just really liked the image of Lucy trying to get used to the idea of a lifetime of weeks without her husband, when in fact, this was effectively the only one.
I mean, granted, there were 15 years without him technically, but I hardly think she was in a position to appreciate it. Right. I'll stop babbling now...
