Chapter 499 - Drink some cold water

"Well, what do you think we should do?"

"I don't know."

"You said earlier that someone else might need to be on the watchout too. Who?

Was somebody else with you that night?"

"Yes...but there was also someone who wasn't."

"Who?"

"I gotta go.

Thanks for letting me crash here."

"Anytime. But first, why don't you...."

*Vroom*

"Knock."

*......Knock, Knock, Knock*

"This stall is occupied.

*Earrrrooooowww*

Ruby?

What uhhhh…..what are you doing here?"

"We need to go. Now."

"Why? What did I do?"

*Tissshhh*

"It's not what you did, but what people think you have done."

"And what have I done?"

"Shh."

"...........Have you seen this Kid? Jordan's his name"

"Yeah, Officers.

He's in the bathroom, I believe.

Over there."

"Thank you . You have no idea how much you have helped."

"Ruby, where are we going?"

"Keep your voice down or they'll find you."

"Who?

....The Police here aren't the bad guys."

".......Better safe than sorry."

*Knock, Knock, Knock.*

"Hello, we are the Police, and we are looking for….."

*Crash*

…*Vroom*

"Jordan?

Jordan?

Are you in here, Jordan?"

"Could've sworn I heard voices."

*Vroom*

"Ruby, you're back; but I'm headed too...…..whose this?"

"This is Jordan?

The Police are after him.

Can he come with you, just until things cool down and his name is no longer on Their records?"

"For how long?"

"I don't know.

Thanks."

"Wait. Ruby, I didn't say…..

*Vroom*

Yes."

"Ummmmmmmm.....Do you have anything for me to drink?"

"There is some Ice water in the Fridge.

Grab two and come with me."

"Where are we going, this time?"

"I....am going to work, and you...….we'll find something for you to do."

"Maybe I can help you. What do you do?"

"I'm a Server."

"Maybe I can help Bust?

Serve? Help wait tables?"

"You'd have to work in the back of the House. Prior Rubys orders, I wouldn't want you getting seen."

"Oh...I...….I can do that."

"Thank you."
