Duets.
They were all sitting in the cafe, sipping
their drinks and talking.
Ulrich and Yumi were laughing at each
others jokes, Aelita was being even more bemused at how the world
worked as Jeremie told her and Sam was mewildered at Odd on how he
kept on eating.
Jeremie: You know Gavin that was a brave thing
to do.
Ulrich: Yea, you've kept us out of alot of Xana trouble and
now you and Jeremie have finally stopped him.
Gavin: I do what I
can, in the spur of the moment.
Odd: And who was that girl who was
with you before the return trip to the past?
Gavin: You were
awake?
Odd nodded.
Gavin: Well Jeremie knows who it
was.
Jeremie: I do?
Gavin: Remember when you told me you nearly
got the anti virus to work?
Jeremie: That's her?
Gavin
nodded.
Aelita, Odd and Ulrich looked blankly at one to the other
when Yumi changed the subject.
Yumi: Anyway guys I got to go home.
Since my parents are away I can't leave the house unguarded for too
long.
Ulrich: I'll walk you home.
Ulrich was about to put money
on the table when Gavin stopped him.
Gavin: I'll pay.
Yumi and
Ulrich left.
Odd and Samantha were next to go.
Gavin: Where are
you going?
Odd: I thought you would pay.
Gavin: I can't pay for
a tower of dishes bigger than the Eiffel Tower.
Samantha
sniggered.
Odd put some money on the table and left.
Jeremie:
Well, Aelita and me will go back to Kadic for a while to give Ulrich
and Yumi some, Cough Time.
Gavin: Okay.
Jeremie and Gavin put
money on the table, left through the same door and went opposite
directions down the street.
