"Listenia?!" I called as I walked in.
I closed the door and looked around the shop, but nothing looked out of place.
"I am upstairs."
I looked behind the counter and smiled. Maybe Listenia was hoping to have some fun before I was gone for the night. I wouldn't say no to that.
I headed around and jogged up the stairs to find Listenia's kitchen also empty. Another good sign.
"I am in my room."
I headed over to the closed door and opened it up, walking in to find Listenia sitting on the edge of her bed in a cute green night dress. Another great sign, but then I saw the look on her face, and I felt the tension in the air. I hadn't noticed it when I came in, but now I did.
"What's wrong?" I asked as I walked over and went down on one knee before Listenia.
"Do you mind laying down with me for a bit? I don't like to be like this, but it has been a long day," Listenia said, looking off to the side, and I nodded and stepped back.
