After spending time with Mike and Nara, Mike stood up. "We will leave you two then," Derek said and got up. They had finished dinner and he decided to return back to his place with Taaliyah.
"Yes," Taaliyah said and stood up.
"What?" Nara was surprised. "No," she began. But Mike stopped her. He smiled at her.
"Let them go, they are adults too, don't try to control your sister's relationship," Mike whispered to Nara while he kept his cool.
"But she is my sister, she is young, she is..."
"Don't be such a hypocrite, let her go, you know well more than anyone, and we are in no position to stop them," Mike advised. Nara smiled uneasily.
"Okay, call me if you need anything," Nara said. She was supposed to be at work but took a day off after all the hiatus.
"Yes, sure," Taaliyah said and left with Derek.
