Darius’s confusion was swiftly cleared, only to reveal itself to be an additional piece of Sonia’s story. Chéri looked at him with a certain interest, following with attention and connecting the pieces. “On the same occasion?” They ended up asking, focusing on the least important part of the story.

Chéri also followed with interest Darius’s gaze towards the painting. Chéri smiled and commented “I saw her yesterday. She has quite a lot on her hands, but I think she also has lots of time on her hands to think about old friends.” Without knowing anything more about their story, Chéri felt they could asses that wherever Sonia was, it had been a while since she has moved on, in general. Maybe even from Darius.
