One minute Roman was trying to sway her into breaking the rules, and the next moment. He was trying to shoo her away from here. Only a few minutes ago, near one of the racks, he had stepped too close to her breathing space, and now he had turned distant, and it made her wonder what that was about.

Julie packed up all her things and placed her bag over her shoulder.

"Too bad that we didn't come sooner," commented Maximus, watching the human ready to leave.

"See you later," Simon brought his hand up to wave at her, a friendly smile on his lips.

Giving them a nod, Julie turned to look at Roman and noticed that he had picked the third can, to drink. He finally had slowed down from gulping them down to taking just sips, and their eyes met.

"I will be going," said Julie, and she started to walk away from there.
