Cynthia had done a lot of stupid things in her life. Â If she made a list of the top five dumbest things sheâd ever done, this was probably number three. Â Maybe even number two. Â She really wished she had another time jump opportunity so that she could go slap herself and prevent this from happening. Â Too little too late, she supposed.
Regardless, she needed to help to get out of her current predicament. Â Cynthia scrolled through her contacts, debating on who was the most likely to pick up and/or drop what they were doing to come help her. Â She finally settled for Lien, and hit to call button with her fingers crossed.
â CALLING LIEN...CONNECTED
Straight to voice mail, but it was better than nothing. Â As soon as she heard the beep she dove into a rather convoluted explanation of her current situation.
âAlright so, I was at Iris Market, right? Â I was looking for something to give to a friend and I think I found the pe-- wait thatâs irrelevant. Â Anyway, I was walking around and I may or may not have stumbled across a rather unsavory deal involving guns that probably arenât legal and the dastards may or may not have locked me in a nearby warehouse for the time being. So if you could come get me that would be great, bye!â
âJeepers, this is no good.â Â Cynthia hung up her phone and shoved it back into her pocket, sliding her back against the wall until she was sitting. Â Curiosity killed the cat.
