"Here's how far I can come with you. It's up to you to choose whether or not you'd continue with this."
Hailie stopped at the door of the small place. It looked like a shabby hut.
"Are you sure that this is the place?"
That was a necessary question. She nodded, not taking the question personally.
Drake turned and looked around for the last time. There were towering modern buildings to the left and right. No one would had thought that there was such a shabby hut in such a technologically advanced world.
Drake decided not to feed his doubt anymore. He touched the alien Drive which was in his back pocket.
"Are you sure you don't want to leave? You don't have to keep a watch. If Rodney finds you here it would be quite difficult for you."
"You're as kind and reasonable as ever, Drake. Perhaps that was why I fell for you."
