Delbert said goodbye to his friend and told him that he was welcome to come to the mansion any day for dinner. Roger waved, smiling as the doctor left in his hover-carriage. Seconds later, a patrol ship stopped in front of the bookstore.
The weird events happened while Delbert was in the storage kept whirling in his head. On Wine Grower his behavior was evidently different. His students noticed him very nervous and his colleagues thought that he was awfully distracted (it was the first time he acted like that without being reading a book)

Roger withdrew a clock from his jacket and checked it. "Speaking of time, I already took too much of yours. We better move onto business, what brings you here?"

Amelia stood looking severely at Delbert.

She slowly came closer to him with her claws extended (oh yes, Felinids had claws). Delbert swallowed, closing his eyes. "She wouldn't dare... would she?"
