Cedric stepped out of the elevator and saw her slamming the door behind her. He rubbed his temples, still a bit dizzy from drinking so much. It had been a while since he had drunk this much. He returned to the nearby apartment, where Alfred sat on the couch playing on his phone. He looked up and asked, "You're back. How did it go?"

"What do you mean by that?"

"Don't play dumb. You mentioned having a girlfriend during dinner, and Noelle's reaction was pretty strong. Don't pretend you didn't notice." Cedric poured himself a glass of water and leaned against the table.

His eyes were dark, slowly swirling the glass. "Once she goes to college, she'll forget about today."

She would grow once she saw the wider world. The only thing he could do was watch her go.

Alfred glanced at Cedric. "Let's hope so."

But he still felt something was off with Cedric. He cared too much about Noelle.

Maybe Cedric didn't even realize it, but this concern might have slowly transformed into something else without him noticing.
