"Adrian," Lucas acknowledged with a nod, his eyes still fixed on the city lights.

Arriving on the edge of the rooftop, standing next to me, Adrian placed his hands on the handrails and looked at Silva City in the distance.

As Adrian and I watched the city in silence, a strange yet relaxing atmosphere enveloped us. It was as if all of our worries were gone for a split second.
For a short period, neither of us spoke. We just calmly watched the city below us.
