Chibs noticed a man dressed in all black enter the bar and found a seat in the corner in the dark. He situated himself so he was directly facing Kalila. Chibs told Tig about the unknown man who was obviously watching Kalila. The SAA moved so he could get a good photo with his phone of the guy. As soon as he got the photo, he immediately sent them to Juice.
Happy and Ratboy were out doing some recon and putting their own feelers out in the community. What they discovered was quite alarming. They ran into no less than four people who were showing curious signs. Signs such as increased talkativeness, respiration, decreased appetite, repetitive motor activity, skin picking, severe dental problems, weight loss memory loss, as well as aggressive or violent behavior. Ratboy called Juice to give him the signs they were seeing of these four people to figure out what exactly they might be on.
"Yeah." Jax said as he phone rang
"There's something going on here." Happy stated as Ratboy was on the phone with Juice
"Such as?" Jax asked, furrowing his brows in confusion
"We've found four people who are showing signs of drug use. Severe. Probably meth." Happy replied
"Hmm. I'll see what I can find out here." Jax retorted as he watched Kalila at the bar
She never seemed to talk to anyone besides Billy. At least that he could see. Was she the drug pusher? He really hoped not. Her behavior was making him think otherwise. Chibs began chuckling softly so Jax followed his gaze. Some random guy had sauntered up to Kalila and started chatting her up. She was more than obviously not interested in him and kept blowing him off. Jax was afraid Clay might be right in his suspicions about her. After the unknown guy finally left her alone, Jax finally went to sit next to her.
"Evening Miss Kalila." She barely heard a male voice say from beside her
The voice was low and she almost didn't hear it. When she turned her head to see who was talking to her she was a bit surprised. The surprised look on her face amused him.
"Oh, good evening Jax." She finally replied
"Are you ok?" He quietly questioned
She looked at him as she tried to figure him out.
"I'm fine." She stated quickly
"Well you've been sitting here for an hour with those fries and you've barely touched them. That doesn't scream fine to me." Jax retorted
How the hell did he know how long she'd been sitting here? Why was he so concerned with how much of her dinner, which she paid for with her money, she ate? The fact that he had observed those things made her very suspicious.
"I'm fine, really. Just caught up in work." She finally said
"Oh? Anything you can tell me about?" Jax laughed softly, trying to lighten the mood
She turned to look at him. Why was he so curious? Why was he asking so many questions?
"I brought up the idea of splitting the classes into four difficulty levels. Of course, having to plan when we would have each specific class each day." Kalila explained
"Hmm, I see." Jax simply stated as he looked down at her books
She was indeed doing what she said she was doing. Would a drug dealer really be this committed to the charade? She was getting very nervous with him just sitting there watching her work.
"Will this interfere with our private lessons?" He suddenly asked
"No, it shouldn't. Well, the time may change but that should be all." Kalila replied, turning to look at him
