She sent a laughing, skull and broken heart emoji, then she started typing again.
When her reply came in and read it, I knew I was just a few steps from meeting with Lucas.
'He frequents this bar and he might be there tomorrow night,' she sent a picture of a bar or maybe it was a club and attached the text.
Then another message came in, 'You can check the place out and claw his heart out."
Another text came in immediately after that; 'for us.'
I told her I couldn't wait and that I would definitely check the club out if I was able to get off work early the next day.
We spent more time chatting and the girl was actually a sweet girl. Suddenly, I felt like I had just repeated what Luigi did to her. But I had no choice. Besides, since she didn't see my picture and I'd most probably delete the account, she'd never find out. The next day took eons to come.
Night took even longer and when it finally came, I found myself before a club whose exterior looked like the picture that the girl had sent me. I was dressed in short shorts, a turtle neck crop top and sturdy but light boots in case I needed to run. The outfit was designed to make me blend in with other clubbers and also be able to defend myself without having to worry that I might mistakenly strip myself naked.
I ordered a soft drink for myself when I got in and scanned the place. It was packed with people but ! easily spotted Luigi. He had about three girls swirling around him, each silently fighting to be the one to press herself against him.
As I lazily a
and uninterestedly sipped my drink, I trained my gaze on him. Maybe it was my gaz nat bored him that made him turn but he turned around, his brows drew down. Blood drained from his face the moment his curious eyes figured out who I was. His movements became jerky as peeled the girls off him and hurried toward me Without a word, she snatched my hands and pulled me to a dark corner outside the bar. He hastily looked from right to left before he turned to me.
"What the hell, Sydney? What are you doing here?!"
"Ah... Your accent, I kind of missed it," I tried to play it cool but Luigi was not having it.
He gripped my shoulder and shook it. "Stop looking for Lucas, do you know how dangerous this is? Go back to your country.immediately."
I asked, a bit confused now that I was hearing from someone that this mission-find-Lucas was dangerous, "What do you mean? Why would it be dangerous?"
He looked around and was about to explain when suddenly, a shadow appeared behind him and pointed something at his nape and Luigi froze. Almost immediately, I heard movements behind me then I heard the click of a gun before the cold metal was pressed against my temple.

My heartbeats quickened as fear overtook my body but my fears morphed into utter surprise when Lucas" face emerged from the shadows, there were two other men behind him and they also had their guns pointed towards Luigi and I.
Lucas turned to Luigi and said in a cold tone, 'Tell me as well. Why is looking for me a dangerous quest?!"
