"Hey, don't come near, just stay where you are."
___
"Lucas, are you okay?"
___
"People are coming after us. You need to go some place safe, far away from the city."
___
"You're starting to freak me out, what's going on?"
___
"Do you remember the new job that I told you about?"
___
"Yeah, you told me about it the day before you disappeared."
___
"I never left. That day I went to see my boss to deliver some documents that he asked for. And when I was about to walk in, I heard him arguing with his wife. I could hear them screaming at each other, so I decided to come back the next day. But when I turned my back, I heard a gunshot so I walked in the room. I saw my boss standing in front of his wife with a gun in his hand. She wasn't breathing anymore, and she instantly bled cold. My boss looked at me and asked me if I was listening. He pointed the gun at me and told me not to tell the police. I said yes, but that didn't seem enough for him and he started to shoot at me. I ran towards the fire exit and luckily got out alive."
___
"And now he's hunting you down to keep you quiet."
___
"Exactly."
___
"Then what does this have to do with me?"
___
"He saw your photo by my desk and told me that if I don't show myself he'll come after you. Well, now I'm tired of hiding. So I asked him to meet me here. I just wanted you to know that I never left."
___
"You need to tell the police about this."
___
"He hired a few men to do the job. If he goes to jail, they'll continue pursuing me. And I know that they won't stop until I'm dead."...
