The late afternoon sunset cast an orange glow over Wright & Co. Law Offices, warming the room, and basking everything with a golden hue. The chocolate, leather sofa in the waiting room remained unattended, begging to be used, without a crease in sight. Even after two days following his victory over Franziska von Karma, he could still feel the sting on his arms.
Phoenix Wright relaxed back in his chair, pretending that everything was fine. He had to, since it was part of his duty as a lawyer to look professional. Mia had taught him that, and even though she wasn't around anymore, upholding her lessons has been his way of keeping her memory strong. He grimaced as he clasped his hands together behind the back of his neck. Those damn whip lashes still hurt, though. He could sure use a back massage right now.
And then he suddenly thought of Maya Fey, his assistant. Now things were sure close a few days ago when he had barely been able to whisk her away from yet another chance at prison. If it weren't for that bullet hole in that evidence...then, he'd probably be alone in his office now. Phoenix pursed his lips at the thought. He had missed her even when she went off to the mountains, and hanging out with Ema surely didn't help either, since they both looked like twins, literally. Let's face it, he was slowly beginning to grow more fond of her. She was already maturing into a lovely young woman, and the way those lovely eyes sparkled whenever she spoke to him, clasping her hands together with that perky smile.
He shook his head. No...she was only 17, he wouldn't. Besides, who would defend him if he was ever caught? Edgeworth? That was worth a laugh. Surely, the Chief would have killed him if he ever touched Maya. Speaking of the Chief, she was surely made of busty glory--
Okay, this was too much. Phoenix took a deep breath, smoothing back his swept hair with both hands. He had to admit--at least to himself--that it has been a long time since he's had any. You'd think an ace attorney like Phoenix Wright would be swimming in ladies by now, but life hasn't been easy, especially with the way things have been after Mia was murdered. Even then, trouble always had a strong nose for Maya, and he couldn't bear with the idea of losing her, not after what they've been through together already.
