Visit of a Ghost.

[Lafayette]

The door automatically started moving, revealing a spacious office. The lightning was brighter than normal and Yuyu could faintly smell lilies in the air.

After adjusting her eyes for a few moments the young Kusarian could notice that the office was separated into three parts. One was the office desk with the flags of House Liberty and Universal proudly hanging on the wall and two chairs in front of the desk for the guests to sit. On the opposite side of the office was a holoscreen with several other equipment that Yuyu could not identify with a first glance. Nicole Burton was there along with an older man, probably an accountant the Kusarian assumed, and from what it appeared they just had finished a briefing with someone from Los Angeles, based on the iconic skyscrapers she saw on the holoscreen. And finally, on the far end of the room, a massive window revealed a breathtaking view of Planet Manhattan along with the casual traffic around the planet. Only the Interspace executives of Newark could have an ever better view than this. Next to the window, Yuyu could distinguish a wooden tea table with small chairs adjourning it. Interestingly enough, aside from this little detail all the other furniture in office were modern and sleek.

Nicole was talking to the man but after a few moments the conversation ended, her eyes meeting those of her guest. A bright smile appeared on her face.

"Please, come in! Nicole said and walked to hug her new guest while the man exited the office. "I hope you didn't find any problems coming here." she said not as loudly as before and with a little concern in her voice.
