Vendetta: The Search
October 1 2016
A week has passed since Ivy's arrest, Harvey has been slowly recovering and is currently bed rested, though he was also getting better each day, but he has been more silent since he woke up from his coma.
Anne continued visiting him every day to check on him, She even advised Dent not to go anywhere near Pamela since she is a threat, Harvey decided to take her advice but he still wasn't sure what was going on with Pamela.
The time was one p.m. as Anne and Bucky were seen sitting the cafe together and ordered two cups of coffee for themselves.
Anne wanted to take him outside since he mostly stays in the manor unless there is a crime in progress. Bucky did refuse a few times since he was worried that someone was going to recognise him and call the strike team to arrest him.
Bucky was seen looking around the cafe while fixing his cap as Anne sipped her coffee and spoke to him.
Anne: See? I told you it isn't so bad here.
Bucky: You might be right about that.
Anne: Come on, Buck. You can't stay in the manor all day long, You need some fresh air in the morning.
Bucky: You know I don't want to risk getting caught by someone. The world knows my name and face
Anne: I understand that, but I really think you needed to step out for some sunlight.
Bucky: It's already hot outside.
Anne: Probably because of the winter clothes you're wearing.
Bucky looked at Anne as she smiled at him and sipped her coffee, Barnes looked at his gloves before he sipped the coffee before he said something to her.
Bucky: So, how is Harvey doing?
Anne: He's alright, He is getting better each day, though I noticed that he's more silent than before.
Bucky: I think he just feels too weak to say anything, but I'm sure he will recover very soon
Anne: That could be the case. Overall, I'm glad he's okay now. Thanks to you, mostly.
Bucky: It's okay, Anne. I know what it's like when you see a close friend in a terrible state. I'm glad he's doing okay now.
Anne couldn't help but smile at him as Bucky had a small smile on his face as Anne spoke to him.
Anne: Thank you again.
He shook his head as Winters was looking at him as they continued speaking to each other.
Anne: So, what was Halloween like back in your days?
Bucky: It was interesting, Everyone did the classic treat or treat around that time.
Anne: What about the costumes?
Bucky: People mostly dressed up as Jack O lanterns, black cats, witches, angels, and other costumes.
Anne: Ooooh, that's really cool. nowadays, people are dressing up as their favourite movie or video game characters.
Bucky: Oh really? I never knew that.
Anne: Mmmm, have you celebrated Halloween?
Bucky: Not really.
Anne: You're such an old man, Bucky.
Bucky smiled a little as Anne laughed a little as Barnes spoke to her.
Bucky: I had a feeling you were going to say that.
Anne: I'm just kidding, Don't worry. You still look good in your age.
Bucky looked at her in shock as Anne smiled at him, Barnes chuckled at her compliment as both of them continued talking to each other.
Both of them were actually enjoying their conversation together instead of working every time. They continued talking to each other until they heard someone calling Anne's name as Winters turned around and saw who it was.
Tara: Hey Anne!
Anne: Oh hey Tara! I wasn't expecting to see you.
Bucky was confused as Anne looked at him and gave a small smile before she looked at Tara, who had a smile on her face.
Tara: Same here. Oh, I'm I interrupting a date at the moment?
Bucky stared at Tara in confusion as Anne laughed at her joke as Winters looked at Bucky before looking at Tara.
Anne: Hahaha, Nope. He's just a friend of mine, actually.
Tara looked at Bucky and smiled at him before she extended her hand and spoke to him.
Tara: My name is Tara.
Bucky: . . . Nice to meet you.
They both shook hands and smiled at each other as Anne was looking at them with a smile on her face, Bucky was about to get up from his seat to leave, but Anne grabbed his arm and signaled him to sit down.
Tara: How come you never introduced me to him?
Anne: He's pretty shy and nervous when meeting new people.
Bucky stared at Anne as Winters looked at him and gave a small smile as Tara laughed.
Tara: Oh, I see. I can already tell that. I guess I'll let you two enjoy your date together, Take care and see you later, Anne!
Anne: *Laughs* See you later, Tara.
She walked away as Anne smiled and looked at Bucky, who was staring at her.
Bucky: Who was that?
Anne: She's my friend and assistant, Tara. She's been working with me for a while now.
Bucky: Oh, I see. And why does she assume that we are on a date?
Anne: *Laughs* She's always like that, Sometimes she tries to set me up on a date with someone.
Bucky laughed a little and smiled at Anne as Winters looked at the time on her phone before saying something.
Anne: Wanna go somewhere else?
Bucky: If you want, Sure.
Anne: There is a nearby park, How about we go there?
Bucky: Sure, I like parks.
Anne: You need experience going on dates.
Bucky: So now we are calling this a date?
Anne: *Smiles* I mean, I don't mind.
Bucky: Me neither.
They both smiled at each other before they got up and left the cafe as Anne began holding his arm as Bucky was staring at Anne with a small smile on his face.
