As they traversed the familiar route towards the main room, Abby broke the silence with an unexpected question, "How are you enjoying Castra City?"
Nexus, caught off guard by the inquiry, replied with a genuine smile, "I think it is an amazing place, and the people I have met here are just wonderful. Like you, amazing Abby."
Abby reciprocated the smile, her mischief evident. "Of course, Castra City has the best people you could find," she asserted proudly.
Seizing the opportunity to satisfy his growing curiosity, Nexus delved into a more serious conversation. "Abby, I am curious about something as well," he admitted, causing Abby to cast a puzzled glance his way.
"What is it?" she inquired, her curiosity piqued.
