After tapping out his coded knock on the door, Napoleon let himself into Illya’s apartment. They were both on a few days leave following an extended assignment of several weeks and Solo had decided to repay one of the many lunches he owed Illya. Solo found the Russian at the top of a ladder, flicking a feather duster.
“I hate having to evict all the spiders when I return from assignment,” Illya grumbled, by way of a greeting.
“I have a woman who comes in once a week,” Napoleon told him.
“I am sure you do.”
“To clean the apartment,” Solo replied, in response to Illya’s snarky comment. “Maybe you should hire yourself a cleaner.”
“I do not want someone I do not know in my private space,” Illya told him, as he climbed down the ladder. “Besides, with all the money I loan you, I could not afford one.”
