a fleeting moment, he thought he had caught a glimpse of a familiar figure, but by the the focused, the

person was already getting into a car.

Before long. Knox approached him, “Kid, what's gotten into you to drop by today?”

Vincent had already shifted his gaze away, his handsface as cool as ever. Only when looking at his

As Knox headed inside, he continued, “I've been telling you to learn cooking from me, but all you do is make
