Lara Stidum… the leader of the Alpha team…
Seth blinked in surprise, staring at her for a few seconds, but thinking it through he could deduce a reason for this unexpected visit.
A faint smile formed on his lips. "Good morning, ladies," he greeted lightly.
Trisha turned her dull grey eyes towards Seth, but they held no focus. She smiled. "Morning, Seth… I hope you don't mind the early, unprompted visit?"
Seth just shook his head and chuckled. Remembering that she was blind, he spoke up, "Not at all… come in…" he offered, stepping back to make room.
Trisha maintained her smile but didn't take a step forward yet. "Um, Seth, I hope you don't mind, I also brought a friend along… she hoped to meet you guys," she explained.
"We don't mind, Trisha. You're one of us. You ladies can come in," Seth offered again, gesturing for them to enter.
And this time both didn't hesitate. Smiling awkwardly, Lara nodded at Seth and walked past him, following behind Trisha.
