Anywhere But Home

Chapter 2: Twice The Deal

"Thanks." Alex says. Andy grabs Alex and walks back to their table to have a drink.

- "Look I have to be in my dorm for the week to pack up. If you want you can come with me." Alex says.

- "Yeah sure why not." Andy replies.

- "So tomorrow morning?"

- "Why not tonight?"

- "People act weird in my house when strangers come in, and the rest of the house has class."

- "I'm thirsty, want something too?"

- "Yeah."

Andy goes to the bar to get some drinks and meets someone she hasn't seen in a while. In the meantime Alex gets a notification and takes out her laptop to resolve the issues. After 10 minute Andy gets back and hands Alex a drink.

- "Work?" Andy asks.

- "No, break in." Alex replies.

- "How?"

- "I know who it is. They just seeing if I improved or not."

- "Who is it though?"

- "My mom."

- "Well then. I know where you got them skills than."

- "Not from her though. She just likes to test me. 99% self-taught. I don't get it, why she likes to do this. Want to see it work?"

- "Yeah."

Alex moves closer to show Andy what's going on.

- "So I have multiple layers of security, just because there are things on here not for everyone to see, you know." Alex starts explaining.

- "I see, same at home but this is pro." Andy replies smiling.

- "And she's at layer three of ten. I'll kick her out later though."

- "So what does she do?"

- "Who? My mom?"

- "Yeah."

- "She works with the feds. I need to change some stuff on here. That's for tomorrow though."

- "Well. That's inconvenient."

- "What is? That my mom is an agent and I scam people?"

- "Yeah sort of. What's that though?"

- "I know, that's what makes it fun though. A little game thing but it's hard. Also if she misses a layer a few times in a row, everything that's on here gets deleted after sending it to a save place."

- "Damn. We could use someone like you in the organization though. Will you think about it?"

- "Yeah I'll think about it." Alex says smiling before taking a first sip of her drink.

Alex gives Andy a quick peck kiss, before getting to feel dizzy.

- "Andy I don't feel good." Alex says dazed.

- "Fuck, that asshole putted something in. You need to get out of here." Andy replies angrily.

- "Make sure to get my stuff. And could you type '/kick felon'? Then my mom is out for now."

- "Done, let's go to my place."

Andy gets Alex to her place and puts her on the bed. "You need to sleep this off, and if something's up give me a shout." Andy says. "Yeah, sure. My head hurts though." Alex replies as Andy walks out.
