It was nearly curfew, Gally claimed that Teresa should be getting off work soon and she'll be walking home. He has been observing her on when she leaves home to work, and when she leaves work to home. He knew which streets she takes, which bus she takes, or her usual train ride time, and which restaurant she goes to.
To walk and stand around in a crowded area was strange, somehow it felt normal, there was a moment where Poe thought that the world was fine and this place was merely a normal city as if there's no WCKD, no Flare and no Cranks in the world. He stood and walk like a normal civilian who is probably walking back to his home. Will the world ever feel that again?
He glanced to his right while he was leaning back against a pillar, catching the sight of Gally, Nico and Thomas walking down the empty subway before they disappeared into the corner. He checked the time the third in the last five minutes, he brought his breath in then mutter out as he exhaled sharply, "Shit" He pushed himself forward, then turned to the left direction toward the main street. There was no turning back at this point.
He wanted to get this over with, get it over with so he can get back to Newt and be with him. The thought of Newt made him feel anxious, he cannot let Newt wait for him any longer.
Poe just walked ahead, as Gally told him to because the street that Poe was walking on is the same where Teresa will be walking on her way home from work. Regardless of what he thought of Teresa, the part where he never wanted to confront her, but he had a lot to say to her. Nothing of any rage, but rather ask questions and get answers. Teresa knows him, she held the answers to his questions, about his past. He knows he was once WCKD, but he needed more answers.
Poe came to a halt by the street light as many pedestrians walked by him, he saw her. There she was, Teresa, walking towards his way, but stopped at the red light in the middle of the street. That pang in his heart hit him again, that same feeling when he sees her, he wasn't sure if it was hurting him, or maybe it was a relief of seeing her again. Has he's been longing to see her again all this time?
Her gaze shifted to her left, watched WCKD guards apprehending a man who's been exposed. She didn't see Poe until her gaze shifted front, it took a moment when she noticed a familiar boy standing across, looking at her. She took a long look until she realized who it was. Poe?
When Poe knew that she had seen him, he had to go, he turned around and walked back where Gally, Nico and Thomas were waiting. He took a quick glance back over his shoulder and saw Teresa hurrying to follow him. He turned and entered a large hall that was almost empty, he kept going ahead.
