I awoke softly, blinking to clear my eyes. I rubbed them and say up in bed. I stayed seated in my bed and took in my surroundings. I swung my legs over the side of my bed and stood up to face my window. I parted the curtains and felt the warm sunlight on my skin. J closed my eyes and took a deep breath. My stomach started making noises so I figured I'd go get some coffee and a small snack from the café down the street, considering I'm like way to lazy. I strolled over to my closet and picked out some black skinny jeans and a nice baggy sweater. I brushed my hair and pushed my side bangs to where they should be. I grabbed my wallet and my keys, because even thought I wasn't driving I'd still prefer to keep my keys in tact. As I walked out towards the living room I noticed that Joey wasn't home yet so I figured I'd leave her a note in case she came back while I was gone. As I finished writing the small note for my absence, I headed out towards the café. As I walked around I took in the scenery. Why is it everytime I'm walking alone in utter silence and left to my own thoughts, everything looks so much more beautiful? I mean yeah it's a city, and yeah it's a little polluted, but, there's just something that makes it beautiful... and I don't know what... but before I knew it I was already at the café. I walked in and waited in line to order. I pondered the menu and felt more in the mood for a tea. A chai tea to be specific.
"Hi, what can I get for you?"
"I'll take a a chai tea, thanks."
I smiled.
"Okay, that'll be $2.25 please."
I handed her the change and she smiled back. I waited quietly on the side as other people ordered. I started thinking about last night and grew a little anxious.
"Chai tea?"
I smiled a took it from the person handing it to me. I found an isolated table by the window and sat down, starring at the view before me. I was snapped out of my thoughts when I overheard a conversation two guys a table over were having. I listened closely.
"Yeah but that's the thing. You see before it shut down completely, I was able to catch the coordinates. Although I wasn't able to trace them, I figured you could help, I also need somewhere to upload some videos..."
"So you want me to help you find these coordinates, when I barely know this city?"
"You live here how can you barely know it?"
"I just moved here recently and it's a big city."
"That's not even the point. I'll read them out and see if you recognize them."
As he read them out, I realized that I recognized them myself. Maybe they're looking for directions to someone's house? I got up and walked over to them.
"Hi, umm, sorry don't mean to be rude or anything but I couldn't help but overhear you looking for certain coordinates? Well you see I think I can help you with that."
"Oh really?.."
"Yeah, in fact I live around there."
"Is it possible you can show us where?"
"Umm, yeah for sure. just uh, follow me."
I said with an awkward smile and point towards the door. I led them out the door and started walking towards my house.
"So, I don't think we got your name?"
"Oh, right, my name's y/n."
"That's Mark, and I'm Jack. Nice name by the way."
"Thank you.."
I couldn't help but feel flattered. I don't necessarily get compliments that often. I shyly looked at the ground as they walked beside me.
"Have you lived here all your life?"
"Well I have most of my life yeah, the (city name) life wasn't for me. So then I came to LA at the age of 18."
"How old are you now?"
"I'm 23, currently."
He gave a nodded reply.
"Well, here we are."
I commented while showing them the open landscape of my beautiful... apartment.
"So, why were you wondering about this location?"
"An issue appeared not to long ago and we're just looking for the person who caused it."
"What...sort of issue? If you don't mind my asking?..."
I looked awkwardly at the ground and fiddled with the phone in my hands.
"Someone sort of,umm, hacked my computer and we're here to find out who did it."
I felt an awkward tension inside as my face heated up. Was it, this person I hacked? No it couldn't have been... Could it?... My mind started racing as the tension started building up even more. My heart beat started to increase and I couldn't calm myself. I began shaking my hands at my side as I pondered into deep thought. If it was me, how was I supposed to tell him it was me? Or how am I supposed to tell him it wasn't me?...
