Talk

Khan was almost sure that countless calls would follow, but his phone remained silent. He stared at the empty screen as if orders would arrive at any second, but no one contacted him.

'I did a good thing, right?' Khan wondered. 'Right?'

The call had been too short to learn about Rick's current status, but he remained a noble. Khan was experiencing first-hand the problems connected to relationships with someone at Monica's level. It stood to reason that Rick and Lucille would have it far worse.

'Maybe they'll let Rick do as he wishes to keep him out of the main family,' Khan considered. 'I couldn't help myself, could I?'

Khan sighed deeply, putting the matter in the back of his mind and storing his phone. The Niqols' ways had shaped his life, so he couldn't go against them. He could only hope that things would work out for Rick.
