Errol walked out, smiling and gesturing, “Nigel, are you with Maia?”

Nigel couldn’t understand Errol’s gestures and looked a bit confused. Realizing this, Errol quickly took out his phone, typed a message, and handed it to Nigel.

“I happened to have something to deal with on this side of the university town, and I coincidentally ran into Maia. So, I brought her here,” Nigel replied to Errol’s inquiry.

“Are you done with your business?” Errol asked.

Nigel nodded, “Just finished.”

“Perfect timing! Join us for a meal! It’s more fun to have supper together!”

Elena also approached and made a “please” gesture, indicating for Nigel to stay and eat with
