"Where are you going this early? I thought you had no work for today," Felix asked as he combed his hair back and checked himself in the mirror. He was preparing himself for work, while I was getting ready to meet Karl Sawada for the second time. I have not told anyone yet that he has asked to see me once again; I thought that Richard might have only sent me that message and no one else. It would not be right if I brought someone along with me, is what crossed my mind.
"Um," my voice came out as a whisper. Felix slightly turned his head to look at me. "I am going to my parents' home. You know how I told you that I needed to talk with Dad about Timothee? I decided to see him today since I am free." I saw from his reflection that he smiled, then I felt his strong arms wrapping around my waist as he pulled me close towards his chest. My hands rested on top of his, and my head was leaning against his.
