"But why would he be here? This doesn't make any sense, that's Juan and Gabriel's house, isn't it?" Rym looked from her friend back to the window.
"Guess we'll just have to ask him ourselves." Nadia got up from the couch and walked over to the door.
Rym immediately perked up. "W-wait, Nadia! You can't just do that!"
Nadia looked back. "And why not? You think I'm scared of some white boy?"
Rym stammered. "N-no, it's just... he has powers too, right? What if... what if he hurts you?"
Nadia pushed out her chest and gave a hearty laugh. "No boy can ever hurt me, Rym, especially not some scrawny blonde white boy!" She grinned. "If you don't think you can handle being in my authoritative presence, you're more than welcome to stay here. Now excuse me as I go ask him what's good." And with that, she walked out the door.
Rym stared at her friend through the window as she strode on over to the boy outside, slowly muttering to herself.
"Should I go? But I really shouldn't... But Nadia's just so... oh, but Virgil isn't bad...but Nadia..." She let out a sigh. "Fine!" She ran out the door in pursuit of Nadia.

Andre settled into his desk and pulled up to his computer. He got his mouse moving and clicked on a messaging app he had minimized before he left. He took a look at the messages screen and smiled. He had one new message. He opened it up and got to work.
