On the table before her, a cup of coffee cooled entirely too slowly as she waited to take a sip. The company of someone she was acquainted with made it worth the wait, though: Angela was endlessly glad to have found at least a few people sheâd known from before sheâd left this place, and the man she knew as Victor Dumont was no exception. âWell then, Mr. Dumont. Now that we have this chance to meet again, I suppose I must inquire about your health as of late.âÂ
      âI trust youâve been taking care of yourself, yes?â She of course knew better â at their appointment long ago, sheâd learned enough to deduce that he didnât necessarily need to take great care of his body. But Angela was very interested to hear whatever explanation he might come up with when faced with a sudden question about his health â and of course to know what heâd been up to since her unannounced departure.
