The quick cup of coffee and snack Adam had planned to have before heading to his suite to freshen up gradually turned into something more.
The reason for this was the old man, who seemed to be able to tell Adam about feelings, love, and relationships much more than Adam would be able to understand in the next few decades.
"You know, Adam, I also had a beloved woman once." The old man said, slowly making another cup of coffee, only this one was for him.
"Hmm?" Adam raised an eyebrow. "Were you married?"
The old man nodded deeply.
"Yes, those were the best decades of my life, but sooner or later everything comes to an end."
There was no sadness or sorrow in his voice, but Adam understood everything from his gaze.
"I see... What did she die of?"
The old man chuckled. "Fortunately, nothing terrible happened. She lived a long life and passed away in her sleep. She managed to avoid illness or a fate much worse."
