Joe's Apartment, Evening
Out of respect for Icene and how tough she'd had things recently Joe had differed to Adam's wishes and quietly set his plans into motion. But now everything was packed up and or put in storage, the forms were signed and filed, his tickets purchased - he had no choice but bring the subject up again.
Adam was as reluctant as ever and Joe began to suspect it had as much to with his brother as Icene. A part of him was touched, but the majority remained unmoved. He was ready to go.
Eventually they decided on an upcoming date for the big announcement over a quiet dinner at home.
