"You've spent an awful amount of time here at the apartment, Mrs. Bradley," Eva's voice drifted from the narrow space of the basement entrance, startling the older woman. Lora turned in the seat, eyes focusing on the shadowed figure in white.
Eva emerged from the shadows, spiked heels clicking loudly against the metal stairs. Her smoky eyes wandered the confined space with quiet curiosity before centralizing her attention back on Lora. "I know a mama bear worries for her cub, but this is might creepy," She business woman joked. "People will talk."
Lora gave Eva a look. "Contrary to belief, Eva, how I worry about my son is none of yours or anyone else's business," Lora retorted. "How've you been?"
"Well, enough I suppose. Things have been going swimmingly since the merger," Eva shrugged her shoulders, fingers toying with her pearl necklace. "I just dropped by to see if my tangerine dream has come back from seclusion when I see the arcade console had been moved. Jet's been keeping secrets," Eva ran a single finger over the surface of the wall, grimaced at the sight of the dust on her finger. "-And as usual, failing to keep house."
"That's my son," Lora remarked. "Now is there anything important you needed to tell him or do you have somewhere to be?"
"Not really, I just came home to see him,"
"I thought you lived in apartment downtown?" Lora inquired.
"And your point is?" Eva dismissed the question. "If you've seen Jet, tell him we need to talk. It's about his position as head developer at that company of his."
"I'll be sure to," Lora replied, turning to face the screen once again.
