With everything set for tomorrow's confrontation with Talia's parents, it was only a matter of waiting for the other proverbial shoe to fall.

While Manny was with Paul helping tidy up the laundromat café, it was only Bob and Talia who were out doing patrols that night. Fortunately or unfortunately, depending on how they would perceive it, the patrol was a rather quiet and unexciting one with the odd encounter here and there to give the duo something to do. Sometimes an old person would ask them to help cross the street or someone would ask them to keep them company to make them feel safe while waiting for the bus or a cab. The night passed without any major issues.

-Tomorrow Morning-

Manny couldn't help but fiddle around with his suit and tie while seated at the furthest booth in the establishment. He was sure that he looked presentable but he still felt anxious as he was the first one there other than Paul who was preparing some coffee and breakfast bagels for the meeting. Manny had sent the email to Talia's parents last night regarding where they would meet and they replied rather quickly that they will be there in the morning and expected us to be just as punctual. In a few more minutes or so, the matriarch and patriarch of the Rose family would arrive and they would be discussing Talia's future as a heroine. "Ah goodness gracious...where are Bob and Talia? I really don't want to confront them by myself." The Latino man muttered to himself as his eyes darted across the storefront's windows looking for their familiar faces while he adjusted his tie and straightened his coat for the nth time in the past ten minutes.
