Augustine walks into the police station smoking.
"What's up chief Valascez. Still tryna figure out if I work for the mafia or not?" - Acse
"You can't smoke in he—" - Chief Val
Augustine inhales the rest of what seems to be a cigarette. He puts it out with his fingertips and then trashes it with a smile. He does all this before Val can finish her next statement.
"Why do I even try? Can't even tell that this is a station anymore." - Chief Val
Ximena finds herself giggling a bit. She finds Augustine's 'I don't give a fuck' attitude humorous.
"I'll be in my office..." - Chief Val
Valascez gestures to Ximena, signaling to do what was discussed between the two of them. Ximena nods for confirmation.
"Let's go to my office Augustine." - Ximena
"Right behind you. I could follow those jeans to the ends of this earth." - Acse
Ximena pulls her shirt down, walking back to her office.
Standing at her office window, Valascez watched that interaction between Augustine and Ximena.
Valascez is blind to Ximena's interest in Augustine but she does notice how she kind of lights up when Augustine is around.
In Ximena's Office...
"Now, what was it that you wanted from me yesterday?" - Ximena
Augustine closes the door behind him.
"I need you to do a police search on a name." - Acse
"With all the resources you seem to have...you want me to do a search?" - Ximena
"Yes, I had confirmation that he was alive a few years ago and I'm pretty sure he still is." - Acse
"O-oh okay. Give me the name." - Ximena
