“Be thankful we didn’t force you to eat garbage.” You say to the weird looking man before turning around and pushing Vera away with your noodle arms.
“Listen, no matter how much you wish that this is over, it won’t end here.” Bray gives a last warning.
“You want to eat the garbage then?” Vera threatens back.
“T-That’s not what I meant, Primavera!” Bray jumps back home. “But you’ll see what I actually *did* mean! You’ll see!”
And that’s the last you heard from this love struck loser… You two are heading towards the bus stop.
“Maybe we should lay low.” You propose to Vera. It bugs you a little how headstrong the loser was at the end there.
“Don’t listen to him. That loser was trying to scare us.” Vera doesn’t sound worried about that guy. “Don’t believe a word that came out of his mouth. None. Not even one. He’s all wrong.” Vera is annoyed. “You don’t actually believe the stuff he said about me, right?”
“He doesn’t have a great track record.” You shrug.
“I’m not the most pleasant person to be around, and people think that gives them the right to spread dumb rumors about me. When I try to be nice back, they say I’m desperate. The entire world hates me.” Vera is letting her frustrations out.
“I don’t hate you.” You don’t know what to say but you’ll support her.
“There has to be a little resentment in that Noodle heart of yours. This whole thing, from beginning to end, was a huge waste of time. Pure nonsense and I dragged you into it.” Vera doesn’t quite believe you.
“I had fun.” You shrug. “And as long as you’re not in danger, we’re good.” You take out your phone. “Which reminds me, we should contact this Sewel Scott guy to tell him who is chasing after him. He can get rid of them, and that will ensure your safety. Anonymously.”
“How are we supposed to contact this <span class="mu-i">master assassin?</span>” Vera’s voice is dripping in sarcasm.
“He has a Car Repair Shop. I found its phone number online.” You don’t like how easy this was to find, but you’re not the one putting your neck on the line to kill people. “Fronties is in the car business too.”
“Hand me the phone. I’ll do the call. He should know my voice.” Vera asks for your phone.
“The idea is to do it anonymously.” You remind her.
