“Are you going to get in or just stand there” called out Cole to Adam and Sarah, as he rolled down the window.

“We really do have a lot to catch up on” mumbled Adam as he walked around the car to enter the front passenger seat, and Sarah entered the back with Emma.

​​

“So where are we going” asked Adam as Cole began to drive away from the restaurant.

“To my apartment, that’s not too far away from here” answered Cole as he played some music.

Sarah and Emma began to talk to each other in the back while Cole and Adam were quiet the entire time and knew that they needed to be alone to talk to each other about their pasts.

Adam noticed that Cole was driving in the same direction as his apartment, but excused it as merely a coincidence as he sat in the comfortable seat planning what he would say to Cole to cover everything that he gained through the system.

However, as they reached the building that Adam was residing in, Cole reached a halt and parked in the car park, making Adam baffled by the fact that they had stopped at his building.

“Why are we here,” asked Adam and Sarah at the same time, both confused by what was occurring.

“We are going to my apartment like I said” stated Cole also confused by their reaction to him stopping here.

Sarah had an excited expression whereas Adam’s expression was still mostly calm with some confusion as Cole parked and they all walked out of the luxury car.

“Why are you guys acting so weird,” asked both Emma and Cole to Sarah and Adam.

“Well, we kinda live in this building as well” revealed Sarah.

Sarah answered the question without much thought, but only after saying it did she realise how weird it sounded from an outside perspective.

Her face burned red in embarrassment as Emma and Cole gave them cheeky looks.

“Your relationship has developed to a level that you are living together” exclaimed Emma giddily as she looked at the pretty girl and handsome man and thought that they made a good couple.

Adam merely shook his head, not bothering to refute, as he walked over to Cole signalling for him to help him out of the awkward situation he was in.

“Should we head up to my apartment” suggested Cole as he dragged Adam away, allowing him to get away from the awkward situation.

Leaving behind Emma who continuously bombarded Sarah with all kinds of questions about how she had gotten together with Adam.

Adam with his charisma stat being at 5 points, compared to the charisma of an average human being that was at 3 points, was very attractive to the eye and left a deep impression with all that saw his jet black hair and glaring red eyes that seemed to match perfectly to his sharp features.

Heading inside the building, the security was shocked to see Adam with Cole, but instantly became respectful as they welcomed them in.

Adam noticing the changes in the attitude of the security was wondering who exactly Cole really, was as he led them into the lift.

The building that Adam resided in was quite luxurious and was one of the best buildings in the area, which was why the rent for his apartment was so expensive at 6,000 dollars, and Adam would have never been able to afford it without the gold that he had gotten through the system.

There were 20 or so floors of the building and the higher up in the building, the more expensive the apartments became.

With Adam’s apartment being at the lowest price of 6,000 dollars monthly and was lucky to find such a good deal which may have been due to the way that he was treated within the estate agency.

As all four of them stood in the lift, Adam was looking closely at Cole’s finger that was heading towards the rows of buttons that had a number, designated to each floor.

But what Adam didn’t expect was for Cole to press the button that was at the top right corner that didn’t have a number and seemed to be reserved for a special floor.

Adam could tell that it was a 20 story building but then noticed that the final floor that had a button in the lift, was floor 19, and the golden button was where the button for floor 20 should have been.

After pressing the button, Cole then placed his thumb onto the button, which seemed to scan his fingerprint.

After his thumb was scanned, two small compartments from the wall revealed themselves.

The compartments were precisely in line with Cole’s eyes as Cole Moved closer towards them and stared straight into the compartments, that after scanning his eyes flashed green.

The lift seemed to be designed for Cole as the compartments returned back into the wall as the lift began to head upwards.

Emma didn’t seem to be fazed by what she was seeing, while Adam and Sarah watched Cole with expressions filled with shock.

“What’s the problem, never seen somebody as amazing as me,” asked Cole gloatingly with a smug smile.

Sarah was still completely shocked and didn’t know how to react, while Adam had a small smile as he anticipated the opportunity to talk to Cole about what had happened to each other in the past 3 years separated from each other.

As the lift reached a halt the doors opened to reveal an enormous open plan penthouse, with an indoor pond with a small fountain at the entrance, that was beautifully laid out.

Emma and Cole entered the penthouse as if it was normal, while Sarah and Adam stood in the lift with their mouths gaped looking at what was before them.

“Amazing” murmured Adam and Sarah in awe as they slowly walked inside the penthouse.

Emma excitedly grabbed Sarah’s hand as she scurried off dragging her with her, eager to show Sarah around, leaving Adam and Cole behind standing opposite to each other.

“Should we finally fill each other in on what we have missed” suggested Cole losing his usually jestful nature and becoming completely serious.

“Lead the way” agreed Adam as he followed Cole across the penthouse to the balcony.
