Jensen offered to shake Giovanni's hand as well. "It was nothing, but thank you for intervening. It was a strange sensation, when it came upon me. I'd not inflict that on anyone."

Jensen turned in his surroundings, frowning at the void and still fresh memories of the strange night.

He spent some time quietly tidying the couch, dishes and bathroom. The bed covers he shook out until they lay smooth and undisturbed. Finally, when there was literally nothing else to do and he could procrastinate no further, he laid down himself. A guilt crept over him, one he feared was waiting. It stayed with him all the while until he promised himself to return to his old building and find what lurked in the basement, only then did he drift asleep, scared to death, but mentally released by the resolution.
