"Talking is nice," Nea looks back and forth between the two guys.

Keitoleinen sits in his office at his mansion, still looking over some things in Africa. The threat of terrorism and revolution may be a bad thing for corporations world wide since it threatens their security and weakens the economy. However, some sectors of the economy do gain from this, which is why he sees war and revolution as opportunity for increased defense spending. In the case of Sierre Leone, unrest there resulted in an anarchy his company could take advantage of. That is why he watches world events closely, for wherever there is suffering, there is money to be made.

"We could tell more stories. I can't think of too many. Uh...what was high school like for you two?"

"High school for me was hell. My friends were there for me though so it made it more bearable. But my senior year was the worst," Nea sighed.

"Yeah, I'm sorry. It sucked for me too. Maybe I should have taken school more seriously, but it was hard when it was such a popularity contest and there were so many stupid rules."

"Exactly the way I felt and I was a slacker too so that didn't help. But I worked in the offices and after a while that was just as stupid as sitting in class."

"Too bad there isn't a way to make learning fun. I don't mind learning, but school just didn't do it for me."

"Yeah. I don't have room to speak on that one because I hope to keep going to school while I'm here in Helsinki."

"Sweet, Thanks Antero," Nea smiled. In Nea's mind, she was very much liking Antero, and the fact that he was being nice wasn't helping. But at the same time, she tried to supress the feeling. It would just make things weird, and she didn't want that.

"It's kind of getting late, so I'm going to head to bed. Have a good night and it was fun hanging out." Antero goes to his own room and crawls into bed. He is in a good mood from all the fun things he did today. The simple things make life good.

Nea smiled at Antero as he headed to bed. "Good night," she called after him. "And good night Niko. I think I'm going to head to bed also."

Heikki makes a trip to the grocery store for some more oatmeal and vitamins. He hasn't talked anyone for a few days now. After getting his groceries, he walks past the cemetary where his mother is buried. On a whim he decides to visit her grave. The grave is covered with leaves and dirt. It is a lonely grave without flowers or visitors. He clears it off, not that she is anywhere where she can see it, but it just seems like something that he should do. He stares at the grave a long time and feels a little sad.

Bassarov sits in his small room and wonders how long he will be here or if they will kill him. Earlier he heard the voice of a woman. He figures that she must be a hostage as well. This gives him some comfort that he is not in this alone. He closes his eyes and tries to rest. At least the rebels haven't had much to do with him. This eases some of his anxieties.
