Chapter Six: LAYING LOW

“I’m sorry… there are things I’m keeping from you.” Rojean said to Lucas when they got out of the car before sighing to herself. They were now walking to Lucas’ car so they could go home although Rojean seemed a little cautious of her surroundings if the others were really gone and were other people following her?

Lucas could only look at her too before thinking of a question. “Who died? Why are you involved in this? Isn’t it a bit illegal? It feels illegal to me, babe.”

    Chapter Seven: A BREACH IN SECURITYRojean opened her eyes, her hands shielding them from the glare of the light from the window which curtains were opened. Her phone kept buzzing that caused her to wake up from her slumber. It didn’t bother her as she didn’t really have the time at the moment to go over any thought process but once she took a peek at her phone and Krister was constantly sending her messages, she sat up and breathed out. She realised that it was a quarter and a half past 7 and that it was too early to be dealing with Krister’s business but nevertheless she called him up to know what was going on.“Roj, I need your help. It’s urgent.” Krister sounded so panicked on the other line of phone call as he was rummaging through the file cabinets in his office. “Do you know any people I could contact when it comes to se

It was two birds with one stone; she wanted to find out if Krister was trustworthy, if he was willing to comply to her plans so he couldn’t get overwhelmed with the amount of work he was currently doing and the fact that if he agrees with this plan, it meant to her that it wasn’t the money he’s really going after. That he really wanted justice for Sei’s death. He couldn’t possibly hog everything Sei worked so hard for but then again, Krister was smarter than what she gives him props for.

But nonetheless, she packed up her things, putting them neatly in the box provided to her by the office she’s working at-- well, now the appropriate word would be ‘worked’ as she was being called to the higher ups for her promotion. She didn’t file for one, although confused, she was still glad to get one this early. Her mind hadn't processed what was happening at all and she didn’t seem to question the odds. Pulling out her phone from her front pocket, she texted her fiance, constantly updating him on the current situation, planning to eat out after it was all over.She put the phone away once she noticed one of her co-workers approaching her, a smile appeared on her lips. “

She was old enough, for sure, especially if she was going to get married soon. But she was never the kind of person to go out on the weekends, to a club or even a bar and always preferred the comfort of their apartment which Lucas didn’t mind at all even when he wanted to go out. She was in a cream coloured off shoulder dress which stopped mid-thigh and hugged her curves beautifully.Lucas was nowhere near strict when it comes to whatever she chooses to dress, he, infact, likes to flaunt her all the time to wherever they were going or to people whom they were meeting. But he can get a little jealous at times though he knows his place very well.“Was that your boss?”

It was too overwhelming for her but she finally reached a conclusion wherein she knew it will definitely affect their day to day living from that day forth.

What if he finds out I’m not Sei if I respond not like her at all?” Rojean asked Krister, anxiously scrolling through Sei and Theo’s messages. “What will he do to me?”Krister assured her with a smile. “Just try to respond how Sei would, what you think she’d reply to that would be.”‘Ok.’ That was the only thing that came to Rojean’s mind when she was asked to respond so though it might have been a little too late to change it up now as she already sent the message.“See?

Usually they take hours in the bar.” Krister was confused.“He’s flirting with me! I’m being cautious. What if they really weren’t dating!? He’s a rival of Sei’s, right? He started talking about his feelings and blah blah blah but I just feel different, you know? I just played it safe for now. He was overreacting, you told me to be cold to everyone. Help me next time when he comes around, I don’t want to be alone with him anymore. I don’t know their relationship and I have a fiance!” Rojean
