Confirmation

"Tell me, why are you trying to stall the meeting?" The woman asked, lightly dabbing the brush on her upper eyelid while looking at the man leaning against the wall, arms crossed over his chest. "It is not like you to bother this much with family matters, so, why are you doing this?" 

"You are far too perceptive," Aseko mumbled, looking out the massive window at the howling winds, the image on his head going back to Eclipse shivering in the cold. I wonder if that is enough to keep him warm. He does not seem to be used to the weather at all.

"It is none of your business." He said, leaning his back on the wall, thinking. "You know what happened already after all."
