John's movements were slow, almost hesitant, as he approached the door.
His hand hovered over the cold metal knob, his breath catching in his throat.
He pushed the door open, a sliver of light spilling out into the hallway.
He stepped out, his eyes widening in surprise.
Standing before him, blocking his escape, was another of the boss's subordinates, a man he knew only as Carlos.
Carlos, the boss's cousin, was a formidable figure, his presence exuding an aura of power and danger.
He looked at John with a frown, his gaze sharp and piercing.
His eyes scanned John from head to toe, taking in the bloodstains on his clothes, the grime on his face.
His eyes then trailed down to John's feet, noticing the bloody footprints.
In that moment, realization dawned on him. John had killed his cousin.
"Jho—"
Carlos began, his voice a low growl.
But before he could finish his sentence, John lunged forward, his fist connecting with Carlos's jaw.
The impact sent Carlos reeling backward, a grunt escaping his lips.
John didn't hesitate.
He turned and sprinted down the hallway, his footsteps echoing through the empty space.
Carlos, his face contorted in pain and rage, stumbled to his feet.
He roared after John, his voice a guttural scream.
"JHON!!!!"
His yell echoed through the hallways, bouncing off the walls, a desperate cry for vengeance.
In a nearby room, a man hunched over a bank of monitors, his eyes glued to the CCTV feed.
He was the security guard, assigned to watch the building's cameras.
He spun around in his chair and came into an halt, then his heart start pounding in his chest, as he saw the scene unfolding before him.
Carlos, his face twisted in fury, was chasing John, who was covered in blood.
Without hesitation, the security guard grabbed his walkie-talkie.
"Get John! He's on the run!"
he barked into the device, his voice urgent.
His words were met with a flurry of activity.
Security personnel, alerted by the guard's call, sprang into action, their footsteps echoing through the hallways as they converged on John's location.
