"What do you mean 'rumors'?" Albedo looked at her like he didn't have a clue on what she was talking about.
"Dottore had told me yesterday about this...guy you've been talking to." Tsaritsa sighed, "I gotta say, I'm very disappointed in you Albedo."
"I'm sorry, but I don't know who you're talking about." Albedo tried to be as convincing as possible.
"You can't act dumb to me, I already have proof." Tsaritsa took out a picture from her desk and put it in front of Albedo.
Albedo would rather not look at it but it would be suspicious if he didn't.
Albedo's eyes widened in shock, his heart felt like it just stopped for a minute.
"Recognize him?" Tsaritsa asked mockingly.
The picture was of Albedo and Kaeya at the bar last night. Albedo doesn't remember seeing anyone from the Fatui there, but he could tell by the way to photo was took, the person had been sitting at a table in the upstairs area.
"I was drinking and someone just so happened to start talking to me. I don't know them." Albedo obviously didn't convince Tsaritsa because she let out a disappointed sigh and took out another photo.
"You seem to be very close with them." Tsaritsa knew Albedo couldn't get out of this.
The photo was of Albedo and Kaeya hugging, it looked like the photo was taken from a window.
"I—" "You don't need to lie to me, I won't believe you with all this proof. I found out he was a cop, and he knows you're in the Fatui." Tsaritsa's tone went cold.
"Let me ask you this..." she began, "Does he know where the headquarters are?"
"What? No..of course not." Albedo lied.
Tsaritsa stared into his eyes for a good minute before taking out another photo.
The photo was of Kaeya and Albedo leaving the headquarters yesterday.
Albedo was furious, who the fuck was taking all these pictures? Probably Dottore.
"Maybe I'll make you kill and dissect him! Wouldn't that be heartbreaking?" Tsaritsa chuckled softly.
Albedo stood up forcefully, chair scratching against the floor.
"I'd take my own life before ever taking his." The room went silent except for the clicking of Albedo's shoes as he went for the door.
"How about you don't have to kill him?" Tsaritsa suggested.
Albedo stopped.
"You just need to cut ties with him, that's all." Tsaritsa smiled her empty smile.
"What's the catch?" Albedo turned hi head to the side.
"There is no catch!" Tsaritsa seemed convincing enough but Albedo still wasn't so sure about this offer.
"So, what do you think? I mean, it I were you, I'd do the one that didn't involve killing anyone." Tsaritsa obviously didn't know what the right time to joke was.
Albedo sighed.
[Albedo] I need to talk to you about something tonight.
[Kaeya] Is this gonna be anything like last times "talk"?
[Albedo] Haha, no. But it's important. Meet me at the park at 8:30 PM.
[Kaeya] Alright, but are you gonna be staying the night tonight?
[Albedo] We'll talk about it at the park.
[Kaeya] Okay, if anything's wrong you can tell me.
[Albedo] Yeah. Bye.
[Kaeya] Bye
Something about that didn't feel right.
Kaeya stared at his phone screen for a few more minutes until he got distracted by something else.
Albedo put down his phone.
"Jesus fucking christ.." Albedo wiped his teary eyes.
Fuck you Tsaritsa.
Albedo bit the inside of his cheek hard.
Childe entered Tsaritsa's office, noticing Zhongli wasn't there (which was unusual), "You wanted me?" He said.
Tsaritsa smiled devishly at Childe, "No need to sit down, this'll be a quick meeting." She walked over to him.
"What's it about?" Childe asked, "It's about Albedo.." Tsaritsa sighed dramatically.
"Is this about the police officer? If so, he's already—" "He lied to you." Tsaritsa cut him off.
His face blinked into a shocked expression, he tried to hide it but he just ended up looking bothered.
"Your mission is to bring Kaeya back here. And I think you already know where to put Albedo." Tsaritsa put her hand on Childe's shoulder.
"And please, bring him back here alive." She pat him on the shoulder with a smile.
"Yes ma'am." Childe looked down, Tsaritsa chuckled softly.
