-Get off the bed already Shen.

-...I"m free today..let me be.

-That"s no excuse.

-Aahh..hardly motivative when it"s coming from you Sel. Go take your morning pills or something.

-Thanks for the reminder. You know I wonder, how you will ever get a girl who may put up with this annoying personality of yours.

-..Hmm...(yawns)...I don"t wanna hear that from a woman like you.

-You a.s.sume so much about things or people you know very little of.

-Like how you haven"t been in here at the apartment for the past few nights?

-What!? You"ve been stalking me?

-No. In fact I don"t need to. You know you"re no saint Selina. Neither am I. But I have the courage to say that out loud. Whereas cynicism is all you got.

-You...(Door slams shut!)

-...(Gets back)

-Hey..

-...(Taking the coffee)Thanks.

-I will make up for the morning.

-I"ve been doing overtime. No need.

-(Sighs)...so..where"ve you been?

-When? This morning, yesterday evening or the night before that? I mean you were asleep in every scenario.

-Look..I am sorry..I went overboard...(sighs)things aren"t going very well for you. And...that affects me.

-I"ll do my best to keep it to myself. There won"t be another collateral.

-...

-Let"s just see to the priorities here for now.

-...

-I was at the college to get some insights on the girl.

-Oh? That"s a lot of effort all around.

-Much of it was wasted. They weren"t very talkative type.

-Well that makes sense. So how much wasn"t wasted? What did you learn?

-She found the personal journal of her Dad..something he would never let her see.

-...I see; he was indeed being blackmailed by the people who had been staying with him. Writing down everything about themselves..

-From the drug racketeering to political standings. Yes, everything can be traced backed to the household.

-He wanted to hide things from his daughter.

-Hm.

-So after finding out the truth about him being blackmailed and such..the girl threatened to expose them?

-It seems so.


-And she was persistent about refusing to give up on his diary. To shut her down permanently...

-...

-Being in a family wasn"t a good idea after all.

-It goes both way Shen.

-...I would rather be alone...forgotten..than being betrayed.

-...

-Then again I am out of that league. That"s a relief(smiles)...

-I have met Han. We spent the night at a bar called Jensen"s. Han..he, he was posing as one of the escorts there.
