After Adam had recounted all the most important events that had happened to him in the Hollow Lands, they began discussing the details, joking around, and thinking about the future.
But they both knew they were waiting for one more important event, the return of Gladius and Xyrea.
Perhaps they had tricked Silvana, and instead of going to the store, they had simply returned to their base. Adam and Silvana didn't believe that. If Gladius had wanted to trick them, he would have done it more elegantly.
Cling!
At that very moment, a soft chime sounded as the elevator doors to their penthouse at the top of the skyscraper opened.
Adam and Silvana looked in the same direction as faint smiles spread across their faces.
Gladius and Xyrea had returned, and in their hands were bags full of groceries. They knew Silvana and Adam would need some time alone, so they decided not to rush in.
