"Boss, Mr. N is approaching. 50 meters."
After a faint buzz, Kenneth's voice resounded in Calix's ear. The Team B's leader reported Nicholas' recent movement when Calix carried Calliope to the display counter.
"Yes."
Calix whispered ever so quietly. His jaw tightened almost imperceptibly but, his composure remained sturdy. His focus returned to Calliope.
"Which one do you want, Poppy?"
Nicholas wouldn't dare to do anything in a public space like this. Calix wouldn't let the man ruin his precious time spent with his wife and daughter.
"Oh~ Poppy wants~ Hurm..."
Calliope admired the colorful assortment of ice creams, her eyes sparkling with delight. She wanted to press her tiny hands on the glass but, Calix quickly stopped her.
The ice cream shop staff patiently waited for the little dumpling to choose from the huge variety of ice cream.
"Papa, that rainbow one! Please~"
