The black car parked on the curb and one of the many men that were with Eva came out and opened a door. She got out and smoothed out her outfit before promptly walking up to the door. She had just finished at Jake's house, and got ready to speak to Marco about Martin and anything further. There was a lot to talk about.
She rang the doorbell, and braced herself to start calling her son "Mr. Arzabe," at least until she was inside. Sometimes having people work for her were a nuisance.

Marco was just putting the finishing touches on his script notes, which he would go over with his colleagues at the next meeting. There were negotiations in the works for an Animorphs mini-series on the History Channel, and they'd wanted some imput from him on what might fit the allotted time frame.
He heard the doorbell ring and made his way out of the study. He wasn't expecting anyone, and he peeked out the spy hole and spotted his mother. His face brightened into a smile as he opened the door, "Hey, Mom!"
The corners of his mouth fell again when he noticed she had a serious look on her face. She was here for business, not pleasure.

Eva gave a small smile, noting the look of disappointment on his face. "Hi. May I come in?" She looked at the people standing next to the door and sent them a look that said, "I'm going in alone."

"You even have to ask?" Marco joked at his mother's question, stepping aside to let her into the house. He cast a look at her comrades, hoping that they wouldn't all be coming into his house. He prefered to speak alone with his mother. It was easier for them to comunicate that way.

Eva walked in and said, "In front of those people I do. Sheesh, they mean well, but they should know my own son wouldn't do anything to me." She shook her head. "So, how are you doing, Marco?" She gave him a hug.

He returned her embrace. It was hard to outgrow hugs from your mother after all they had been through. He would never take her for granted after having thought for two years she was dead.
"Honestly? Things have been a little weird. The Yeerks come back, they attack my wife...then my wife gets kidnapped by my lunatic ex girlfriend...just weird." He let out a chuckle, able to laugh only because things had turned out alright.

Eva still had a hard time believing that she missed two years of Marco's life and all because of the former Visser One. She raised an eyebrow at Marco's response. "Lunatic ex-girlfriend? I don't remember that one, I don't think." She shook her head. "I saw the news on that. It was utterly insane."
"Well, then the stupid assassination attempt." She shook her head.
