Grell had been from the door across the hall, since it was their own room after all. What had her interest wasn't the fact that Espio and Ace seemed to have feelings for each other, but it was what Marco had said. Not waiting for Toby to return in the chances that he wouldn't. Marco would no doubt tell the same to her if he had ever disappeared, but she doubted she could follow such advice. As she listened, her cats came to rub against her ankle, but she didn't notice that much.

Once their conversation ends, Grell walked over to the window, seeing nothing but blue as the Garden was still in motion. She was very upset by what he said.
