The dinner was finally ready.
By this time, it was already dark outside.
A table full of delicious dishes, but, it was just Landon Brooke and Luther Holmes enjoying them.
Luther was not as shy anymore, but he mainly kept silent because he didn't know what to talk to Landon Brooke about.
Landon Brooke didn't start any conversation with him either, simply urging him to eat more. Meanwhile, Sister Kingston kept providing analysis of the dishes for Luther, which seemed to prevent any awkwardness throughout the meal.
Luther ate quite a lot, and when Tom Rosenthal returned, it was already past nine o'clock at night.
Of course, Luther did not plan to stay here; it didn't seem appropriate, and it wasn't very convenient, so he insisted on returning to Zephyria Central.
Landon Brooke didn't stop him, and had Sister Kingston prepare some snacks in case he got hungry on his way back.

Coburn Courtyard was very quiet at this hour, the courtyard lights very bright...
