Kristy halted on her steps and slowly faced Niko. "Where is my friend?" she asked.
"She's inside my bedroom, sleeping soundly," he answered. "Please come back to the sofa, Madam. Let's talk about the reason why you're here," he said in a businesslike tone and sat on the sofa.
Kristy hesitated to go on with the purpose of her coming to this place.
Niko looked at her. "If you have questions about me and Erin, you can ask her anything when she wakes up," he said. "Please sit down..." he said.
Kristy sighed heavily and settled herself on the sofa facing him.
