-We will continue this later now go!

-Layla?

-Hmm?

-Washroom. The back exit.

-I know.

-And please don't wait and try to negotiate with the guy.

-I said I got it. Run!

And so she did. At least it seemed like it until..

-What the hell! Why's she stopping?- It was nothing new to me that Layla never ceases to avoid a plan. But like every time I get deviated from the plan itself too for her sake. She was calm and I noticed the unusual amount of customers they got were helping her to blend in. The cafe was a rather compact and simple establishment but it was famous for it's cold coffee.

I stopped running without even realising. The relatively small guy was after me. He didn't waste a second and grabbed my shoulder as soon as he got enough close. I decided to go along with Layla..

-Hey you! Stop right there!

-Huh? So you have finally caught up?

-Yeah numbskull. Now hand over the bag.
