"What exactly is this place anyway?" Core asked, walking beside me. "If I am not wrong, it is a furniture store?"
"Yeah. It belongs to a friend." I said as I continued to walk down the stairs, eyes on Yale and the girl beside her.
"Rufus Jailbord, right?" He asked, immediately getting my attention.
"You know him?"
"I heard of the incident." Core said, looking at me closely. "It is not uncommon that some people will end up dead, Zion. You know that, right?"
I sighed, running my hands through my hair, as the light sounds of the two talking behind us and our footsteps lightly tapping against the ground.
"You both are insistent on protecting this place because you feel guilty about what happened, am I wrong?" Core spoke up again as I gripped onto the railing.
"Who knows, maybe?" I said as casually as possible.
