Halai snorted. “I highly doubt it. Not that I haven’t been witness to more extraordinary things, but I’m not going to hold my breath.”

Eyeing her mostly nearly plate and having savoured the simple but wonderful meal, Halai smiled softly at Astrid. “Well, I actually need to get back to the White Village shortly., but why don’t you come over for dinner later in the week? I’m sure we can swing some coordination of our schedules.” She was uncomfortable in her place but she also knew that the more time she spent there under pleasant circumstances, the better everything would become.

Astrid took the final bite of her food and set down the fork with finality. “Oh that was good.” She sighed in pleasure and sat back against the chair for a moment. She liked Halai and it seemed like they had quite a bit in common. This lunch had turned out to be a great idea and Astrid was glad she had taken the leap. “That sounds like an excellent plan. I still have so much to catch up on, but I am the kind of workaholic that believes breaks are beneficial to productivity. Let’s do it.”

“If you don’t mind, I am going to remain here to do some work before heading home for the day.”

Halai smiled as she rose to her feet. “Not at all. I’ll send you a couple options for dinner and we’ll go from there. In the meantime, try dessert if you like. they’ll take good care of you here, and the bill is covered, so don’t worry about anything.”

“I hope your settling in gets better,” Cosgrove said genuinely.

Moving off, Halai wore a content smile and felt her korsiolo shimmer in agreement.
