"Nothing's worse than a man who's locked in a jail cell, and doesn't even know why he's there"

Continuing from, chapter 3~wherever you go.

"What in the heck just happened?"

It all started when he was isolated in the room, Justin was certain everyone arrived downstairs.

This was definitely the most discomfort he's ever felt in years, bits and pieces of the puzzle made no sense, but he didn't just sit still.

First things first was to call downstairs, he thought maybe Jamelia would have some sort of ulterior motive, however, it turned out, they were still transporting her.

Did she hire somebody?

Looking up at the elevator made his heart shake more, freezing his veins still. He wasn't defeated yet but Justin had to make up his mind; Go to war with no information or help whatsoever? Or just succumb to his injuries?

"Reanna?" He thought.

Eventually it all made sense, she would be the type to get rid of anyone she hates right? But then again, she's never gotten through Justin's line of sight before.

"She did say she would kill me first as a joke......"

Justin took off his entire suit, packed it away, and wore his favourite white hoodie. disguising himself as a random client of the building.

As you can see, the elevator is a recurring cast in this story with special roles involved, and like the camera man, it sees everything.

Sending Justin downstairs, it opens its doors once again watching the young man leave, there was no one else around because of the commotion but Teneisha and the girls were laughing outside whilst the boys, specifically Antonio were warming up with coffee.

Even though it was cold out, the sun burned inside their hearts, people die everyday, lives are lost, but until you experience death first hand, that innocence will never change.

Justin was tempted to be around them for a little while but turned around heading toward the back of the building.

Suspecting Reanna before Jamelia was futile at the moment, but he had to make sure nobody got to her before he did.

Besides the car park, there was a load off area where a heavy armoured truck reversed in.

"Jamelia!" Justin called out from behind the vehicle.

The two doors took their time to open, but two men holding Jamelia in cuffs got out the van, releasing her, then leaving.

"Just like that?" She asked him feeling the relief on her wrists.

"It's a wonder what influence can do, plus, I don't trust the legal system"

Jamelia knew exactly why Justin went to all means to free her, so she told him the entire story from beginning to end.

"Are you sure you had no motive to kill him, especially after he found out?"

"All I wanted to do was make it up to him, now I'm never getting that chance"

And she really meant that, the bottomless pit got deeper as time moved on, but now he had to make a decision that might stab him later.

"From now on, you stay by me, but if I die, they'll know it's you"

Like shooting yourself in the chest with the enemy right behind you.

Justin returned to the reception area, with Jamelia quietly trailing along behind him like a suspended student.
