"Hello Mr. Storm, you probably don't know me but I don't blame you for that. I was a friend of your uncle's" a man said to Alex over the phone
"Look, who are you and what do you want?" Alex replied aggressively
"Young man, no need to get angry and responding to your first question, you can call me Jack, Jack Snyde" He answered
"And about your second question, what do I want? well I'm afraid you'll have to meet made in person for an answer, meet me at 2pm at the mall, and don't be late" Jack said without waiting for an answer.
Alex walked over to Mike. He wanted to tell him about the phone call he received but he was reluctant to do it. He knew that the moment he told him, his life would be in danger.
"Mike! Can I talk to you for a sec?" Alex asked
"Sure thing but can it wait I've actually got something going," Mike replied
"Now!" Alex pressed
"Didn't you hear me Alex, I'm busy," Mike hissed back.
Alex shot him a deathly glare that really caught Mike's attention.
"Okay Alex, I'm all ears and this better be worth it," Mike said calmly
"Um, I don't know how to tell you this but er, I haven't heard from my cousin in a while and we're really close," Alex chickened out at the last second but he suddenly remembered his cousin. It had been like three days. He'd have to call her later.
"Alex, you called me out because you haven't heard from your cousin!"
"I told you this better be worth it and you couldn't seem to prevent yourself from disappointing me. We'll have to talk later on,"
Alex arrived at the mall while still treading over the fact that he hadn't called his cousin for so long. He felt terrible about himself. Alex walked into the mall and as soon as he did someone tapped his shoulder and he quickly turned to see a strangely well dressed man.
"Well, you must be Jack Snyder," Alex started
"Indeed I am," he responded
"Okay, I came now can you tell me what the h*ll you want," Alex rumbled
"Of course Mr. Storm, but I don't expect this kind of language from you. Your uncle would never have approved," Jack replied
"Enough about my uncle" Alex said
"I'm afraid I won't be able to do that,"
"I came here specifically to talk about your uncle, I know who killed him and I can help you to catch them,"
"Wha'd you mean by them?"
"You'll know in due time but we have to settle something's first"
