Fuck all of the small talk,

give me the real stuff

Kadie leaves for work. She didn't even want me to take her and I don't know whether she's mad at me or ashamed, but I don't know what reason she'd have to be either.

I still don't know what the deal with her is and that bothers me way more than it should.

Jon calls me when I'm sitting at the table with one of the sketches I've been working on for a few days now. "Yeah?" I answer.

"Is Kadience with you?"

I stop drawing. "Why?"

"I think they're planning something tonight."

"Fuck." I rub my eyes. "How do you know?"

"Ante overheard something. Look, I don't know what's going on with you two, I just thought you'd like to know about it."

"Yeah, thanks. She left for work before. I don't think they'll try anything there."

"Not while she's working and not with all the people around. But what about when she finishes?"

Goddamn it all. "Do you think they know where she works?" That might be a stupid question. I know where she works and not because she told me.

"It's not that hard to find out, is it? I mean ... I found it out for you in just a day."

I rub my face again, standing up. "Alright, you're right. Don't worry, I got this."

"Need someone to come with you?" Jon asks.

"Nah. I'll call if I'll need a backup. I have to check out the scene first."

"Alright. Stay safe."

I grin. "Don't I always?"

 "Don't I always?"
