Her caller, a tired man in his 40s said, “Hello, Peyton! I’m glad to inform you that I compiled everything we need to discuss for today’s meeting! Notify Erwin about it, okay?”

“Well, that’s great, Mr. Broadsheet. I’ll ask Erwin to come with me.”

She paused for a moment, lowering her voice as she starts to speak. “Lincoln, I’ve got some news.”

“What is it, Peyton?”, this intrigued Lincoln. What is this ‘news’ that his friend, no, rather his acquaintance talked about. He listened carefully as Peyton begins to speak about the new girl in the town.

Interesting, he thought.

“So the new girl's name is Cecilia.”

“Cecilia, huh? Any information about her?”

“She took interest in those plants...”

“And why?”, Lincoln got tense for a moment.

“Don’t know why. She told me that she was directed to me by Erwin.”

“Erwin? Ah okay, I thought she’s a government spy.”

“Nah, she looks informal. Flannel,jeans and sneakers. Pretty casual girl by form and personality.”

Cecilia noticed it and faced the lady. Upon close examination, this must have been this Peyton lady that Erwin was talking about according to Cecilia. Could that be her or just some random biker?

Cecilia waved her hand at Peyton, not noticing her at first, “Hello! You must be Peyton!” Peyton then turned to her right, looking at Cecilia. She groaned at her. “I don’t know who you are, missus. Give me a break.” She went back to smoking her cigarette. She turned her head away from Cecilia for her safety. Smokes puffing away from her. She crossed her arms while carrying her cigarette “Okay, kiddo. How the hell do you know that my name is Peyton?”

Cecilia looked away from her. She gulped. “Uhhh, Erwin told me to find you.”

The goth woman’s eyes widened then she relaxed, “Erwin? Aaaah, the guy from the curio shop. You must have asked him to join our group, huh?”

“Yep! I have shown him pictures.”, Cecilia pulled up her phone. Peyton tipped her hand on Cecilia’s hand. “No need to do that. I trust your word on it.”

“How do I go to your house?”

“Ah, you have to go to the Shady Acres and you have to pass through the security gate. Since the incident, I don’t think anyone is allowed there unless you have a pass.”

“Really?”

Hollow Hills Saloon

“This is DJ Chillsie Dapper of Strange Indie Radio Station and the next song from our playlist for today is Vool Zam by one of the Simnation’s indie rock icons, Caesar Ramone!”

The song begins...

She said to the bartender. “Red wine please!” The bartender compiled and gave her a glass of wine. She drank it all up in one gulp and slammed the glass down. The bartender was shocked about this and said, “Do you need more?”

“Nope!”, she said. She placed some simoleons on the table and the bartender. Meanwhile, the other lady chuckled and gave herself a puff of nicotine.

She ran back to her bike. Fortunately, no bike robbers were seen on the plaza, ready to ransack the slightly used bike. She hopped back to her bike and rode towards the old saloon. She parked it near the entrance and went inside the old bar.
