“Here you are. Home, safe and sound before dawn.” Elliot speaks elegantly, like a gentlemen.
“Thank you Sir, how kind of you.” Kei opens the door to her apartment and steps inside. It somehow seems a bit scary knowing that Nadia isn’t there and she’ll be alone for a time.
“Everything ok, Kei?” Elliot asks her with mild concern. She turns around with a smile.
“Oh, just a bit quieter than normal I guess. I’m fine.” She pauses. “But…you’re welcome to come inside for a while if you’d like. I have loads of leftovers. We could watch a movie too.”
“Are you stalling for time Miss Miller? If you’re feeling lonely, you should just say so.” He grins teasingly. “But alas, I have things I need to prepare, so I can’t stay with you. Maybe Rika can?”
“Not sure. She’s probably busy, but it’s ok. It’s not like this is my first time being on my own. I’ll be fine.” She pauses momentarily. “Well, I won’t keep you Elliot. Thanks again for today.”
