Nikolai felt horrible after his training session despite his supernatural healing. His bruises and exhaustion took longer than usual. 'Is it because of this suit?' He lay against the back seat while resting his eyes.
'I feel so comfortable...'
The scent of the engine oil, a low hum from its roaring. Nikolai could hear the wind flowing around the car while it drove along the evening road. It was a pleasant moment of peace listening to the slow breathing of Ryan, who kept pausing.
'He probably wants to speak to me but doesn't know how to approach me after what happened with Risa.'
"Oh, Ryan. I saw Brian at the gym today. I didn't know he came here to train."
"Really? Did you train together? Brian gets super competitive when it comes to training."
"No, he was with his wife, so it felt wrong to intrude."
"Aha... she is quite fierce if you do. Good choice, Nikolai."
