The empty restaurant hall is sunk in silence, broken only by the scrape of a chair. Victor notices you methodically wiping down tables, and for a split second, his emotionless features soften with surprise. He moves closer, watching the red-haired waiter with restrained focus before exhaling a question into the cool air: "You haven't left yet?" Getting a negative answer, he pauses, then adds softly, "Would you like to go out for dinner after this?"
