Upon seeing Leopold driving one-handed due to a bandaged hand, Thalassa expressed her concern, "Why you are driving while you are still recovering from the hurt?"
Seemingly prepared for the question, Leopold replied, "The victim's family is making quite a scene. Being the direct hire of those two workers, it's my responsibility to figure out the exact cause of the accident. I can't just sit around in the hospital."
He spoke without diverting his gaze from the road ahead, not even to look at Thalassa.
Thalassa nodded in understanding. Leopold should also be investigating the incident at Leossa Electronics, she thought.
She had witnessed the confrontation between the victim's family and Leopold at the hospital. The accident's cause was still a mystery, and Leopold must be under a lot of pressure.
Without asking her where to go, Leopold drove her to Starhaven College and parked in the campus parking lot.
Confused, Thalassa asked, "I still have to go to work. Why did you bring me here?"
Leopold opened the car door for her, saying, "This is our alma mater. It's been a while since you've been here, hasn't it? A trip down memory lane won't hurt."
This was where they met and fell in love, the place where Leopold's fondest memories resided.
Thalassa thought for a moment and agreed. She hadn't been back since she left.
Despite living in Starhaven, her busy work schedule and the task of caring for four kids left her with no time, or even the thought of revisiting the college.
She had always regretted not receiving her graduation certificate from Starhaven College. A trip back to the old grounds seemed like a good idea.
As they strolled through the park's shaded paths, a gentle breeze carried the youthful scent of the blooming water lilies from the nearby lake.
