_____"Yes sir, what would you like to report?"
"Could you record our conversation and send it to the FBI?"
"..."
"Yes, what would you like to say?"
"To the victims I have harmed earlier, I'm sorry. It wasn't my intention to hurt you this badly. I thought what I was doing was right, that it could be justified by the death of my brother, but I was deeply mistaken. I am prepared to face the consequences of my actions, on one condition. Damn, I'm not even in the position to be requesting this, but please, let me tell me story."
I end the call and quickly mouth to Jeremy "go home, I'll handle this". He looks worn down, and nods wearily as he gets out of the car and begins walking. I know this call will be traced, which is why I wait. I wait for them.
