Kedening ascended the stairs, unlocked the door, and returned to his home.
For the convenience of working at the theater, he lived very close to it, merely a street away. It only took a few minutes to walk there, though this convenience came at the cost of exorbitant rent. Renting a place in the Agreement District was no easy task.
Some suggested that Kedening should live in another district. Such arrangements were common as many lived on the outskirts and took the tram into the city center for work, saving a considerable amount of money.
However, those familiar with Kedening knew that he lived so close mainly to take care of his wife. Very few had seen her, but it was said that she was frail and needed to stay home and recuperate.
Even without having seen Kedening's wife, everyone knew her name.
Jini.
That was the name of the theater, named after his wife.
Many thought of Kedening as a good husband, and everyone envied the woman named Jini.
"I'm back."
