while he may’ve been given time to MOURN it doesn’t mean the RED ROOM was done with him. they put her on secret surveillance of him----although, she’s sure he’s more than aware that SOMEONE was watching over him when he turned to his so-called NORMAL life. she’s SURPRISED they didn’t call him sooner, he is one of their BEST....well, besides her of course, but it was only a matter of time before he got sucked back into the life.
seeing Nikolai’s other life was STRANGE to Natalia, who had gotten to the know the man well over the years. SOMEHOW....SOMEWAY he managed to find normalcy despite what occurred and she feels likes an OUTSIDER as she walks into his home. just as she’s leaning over to take a look a picture of him...smiling (which is even stranger), she hears the door open. instead of reaching for her gun, her arms raise in the air as a sign of her MERCY. “Is that how you greet an old friend?”
