"And what is that?" Yulio grunted.

Aurelius ignored him. "Cosmia. Please, stay here. Come on, Yulio, we have to go to the museum."

Cosmia shivered on the couch as they left. Yulio headed straight for the car. Aurelius lingered by the front door.

"Comin'?" Yulio stopped with the passenger door open.

"Yeah yeah." Aurelius slowly made his way to the car. "I'm just worried I Cosmia feels I'm ignoring her for work. And I'm worried too." he slipped into the driver seat.

Yulio closed the passenger door behind him. "Cosmia is a strong woman. I'm sure she understands why you have to always leave for work."

"You're right." Aurelius sighed. He backed the car out of the driveway and drove down the road.

Once they arrived at the museum and got out of the car, Aurelius rushed up the steps and through the large wooden doors.

The entire space was empty. Suddenly, a figure dressed in black stepped out from a back door with two others beside them.

"Who are you?" Aurelius called out.

The figure put her hood down and revealed her face. "So glad you could play my game, _Aurelius_."
