Malik stepped into the busy airport with eyes already scanning the crowd as if he was looking for someone. So far there wasn't any luck, and already the anxious creeping feeling was crawling down his spine. It was funny how someone could feel near claustrophobic even in such an open space. It wasn't like people were close enough to actually be within touching distance.
He gave a breath out through his nose trying to tap into the persona that he still openly utilized when it was beneficial for him-- that one being Namu-- though he was more or less integrated into Malik.
A cheerful demeanor radiated along with charisma as the wheat blond Egyptian approached the help desk ready to speak to the employee who was already seeing about helping a few people ahead of him.
His luck changed however and he breathed a sigh of relief as he spotted a familiar head of white, wavy locks in the crowd.
"Hey, nice to see you." Malik said still channeling the friendly and positive demeanor of "Namu". It was just hard to switch off from time to time.
"My flight would have been here earlier, but we had to make a small detour." He said laughing as he rubbed the back of his neck.
"But, enough about me... What have you been up to?" He asked while pulling his one bag of luggage behind him. The other things he had sent ahead of time as it would be easier to just unpack them in the apartment he had rented in Domino City, but still had yet to stay in.
"I hope that I didn't keep you waiting too long." He added while walking alongside his friend.
