Ruben and the blonde dude's stares burn holes on me with how intense they are.
I only sweatdrop at this, wondering how I can escape this time. The situation gets even more disgruntling as soon a I spot two all-too familiar figures who are about to enter the diner. I didn't expect Sol and Felicity would catch up to me this fast. Then again, this mysterious guy was able to chase me like that in a matter of minutes and had even seen the stunts I pulled back in that shortcut earlier. This implausible position is simply preposterous, indeed.
"Ruben, I'd really like a break now, but if you don't mind, can I also ask for a back up?"
He only blinks at me in bafflement. When I points at Sol and Felicity then at the blonde who looks utterly confused and peeved, he was finally able to decipher my words. He then heaves a defeated sigh at this before scratching his head, which is something he usually does when he has no choice but to oblige.
