Sitting at your desk filling in a mountain of paperwork "Why did I do this job again? Oh yeah, I love my job, really" you mumble, to be fair you do love your job just not this part of it, it's not like you could get anyone else to do it as your signature was needed to make it legal "caffeine" getting up you wander to the coffee machine, pop in a cartridge and let the smell of coffee fill your senses "Should be able to finish now, you think" taking a sip.

"Finally, I can go home" said as you stretch your back, speaking out loud to yourself is a habit from when you were not alone, "to be fair this was kind of your fault, wasn't it. I should probably change it soon?" shaking your head, you open a drawer and notice your pills, so you take one you leave your desk and grab your coat, switching off the lights you leave locking the door and walk to your car, unlocking it with a click beep, you get in, the radio plays a love song you cringe, it's not that you hate love, but been there done that, lost them, trying a few times, but the spark wasn't there.

Arriving home, about to get out of the car and your phone goes off, looking at the caller ID Unknown, shrugging alot of people have this number you answer L/n Y/n speaking "I need your help L/n, I got into some serious trouble" they ramble panicked you stare in to the void, "okay, who is this? And why would I care? wait do I even know you?" the voice is silent then speaks "It's ex/B/f, and I thought you could help, and yes you know me we were best friends in college" thinking.

"Oh I remember you now, but again why would I care? you are in trouble not me, besides I haven't spoken to you in years" she starts screaming profanity at you "Okay who are you in trouble with? and where are you, might take me a while" she starts crying "It's Bonten, I sold some papers I found, and I am at B/n bar, I can stay for 2 hours at most" you hum "Serious bit of trouble there, okay I will be there as soon as I can, okay, keep calm. I know that bar is the back right booth open? If so go and sit there, I don't know what you look like anymore" she breathes out "Yes that is fine L/n, it is empty, I will wait for a bit, thank you see you soon" you hang up "Idiot".

Starting the car you travel to B/n, to meet with an ex best friend "I wonder how she got my number, oh well, not my problem". Arriving you walk in to the bar and nod to the barman, going to him you order a drink and look to the last booth, a woman sat there looking spooked. Leaning over you whisper to the barman, he nods grabbing your drink you slowly walk to the last booth, sliding in you look at the woman, who was once your best friend.

"So why me? And how did you get my number?" you ask looking at her, she glances at you "L/n that you? You changed alot" you nod and gesture her to answer the questions "I know you are to do with the police and I found your number in a cops phone" you stare at her clearing your throat "If you were with a cop, why am I now being dragged into this, and I deal with the cops I am not with the cops" she starts shaking.

"He works for them, and you have alot of contacts in the police department" feeling a vibration on your leg, blinking slowly at her you sigh, putting your leg up to stop her leaving "How do you know who I contact doesn't also work for them? Also why this bar? I like this bar" she just looks at you confused.

A shadow falls over the table, you turn to look and nod he nods back, he growls while holding a gun to ex/b/f head "So who did you sell the info to?" you do nothing you just sit watching her, tears start streaming down her face and she starts wailing "You need to help me L/n, I don't want to die, she knows all about it, I sold the info to her, she knows alot of police" you tilt your head and the man looks at you "She serious?" the man asks "Seems so Sanzu, if I really was a good samaritan, I would be dead now. It pays to be ruthless, I guess"

Ex/B/f stares at you, wondering why you spoke with him, confusion evident on her face, you lean forward "How do you think they found you? I work with the cops because of my job, I don't socialise with or even like cops".

Leaning back you say "Meet my Coworker Sanzu, Bonten's second in command." she starts crying again "How long, why" asking in a shaky voice "Forever and because I am loyal, to those who are loyal to me. Now who bought the info, if you don't answer it will be hell, he likes to torture, if you answer now, it will be a bullet to the brain, no pain" she glares at you and answers, you tune out till you hear a bang, refocused you notice blood on the table and splattered across the back of the booth.

Turning to the man now sat next to you "How have you been Sanzu? It has been a while since we last saw each other?" he smiles at you "I am doing okay Sweetheart, yeah it has how have you been?" you look at him "Lonely Sanzu, I am lonely" was the only answer that came to mind, he pulls you into a hug "You have done enough. Ready to come home?" you hold him back and nod a whispered "Please" was heard by him.
