Nik grinned at Jacques, "Oh...we knew each other well." he turned before Jacques could question him further about his friendship with Julia and made his way back to where Fran sat on a sofa alone. He sat down beside her, putting an arm around her shoulders as if it were the most natural thing to do.

"Very nice to see you too Nabiya" Jacques said as Nabiya kissed his cheeks. He noticed a slight wobble in her lower lip, and her eyes seemed red from crying. Not one to pry, Jacques didn't question her about the cause of her unhappiness, just smiled at her reassuringly.

For some unknown reason when Nik grinned and said he'd known Julia well, Jacques was filled with anger. He liked to think he wasn't the jealous type, but really... why wouldn't Julia have said anything? He made a mental note to ask her when she got here.

Jacques took a strawberry tart off the tray and, avoiding the eye contact of a certain woman, sat down on a chair and ate the tart.
