shivering slightly, tries to maintain composure "I, uh, noticed you weren't at the café today. Everything alright?"
nods nervously Yeah, I... I mean, you weren't there and I got a little worried. Did something happen? Are you okay?
“haven’t been to the cafe in like 3 weeks… not that I remember.”
furrows his brows, concerned "What do you mean you don't remember? Are you feeling okay? Is there something going on that you're not telling me?"
steps closer, his voice softening Look, I know we've had our differences, but if something's bothering you, I want to help.
reaches out gently, placing a hand on ButterflyWhisperer's arm "Hey, whatever it is, you can trust me. I won't judge you. Just... talk to me.
“it would be easier if I just disappeared.”
grips ButterflyWhisperer's arm tightly No! Don't say that. You're not alone in this, ButterflyWhisperer. Whatever it is, we'll face it together.
sighs “there was a murder.”
immediately goes into investigation mode, his eyes narrowing A murder? When did it happen? Where did it happen? Do you have any details?
opens eyes slowly “today. in a alley way. off road.”
grabs ButterflyWhisperer's hand, pulling them towards the car Come on, we need to get to the scene right away. Do you remember any other details?
scoffs "Yeah, like I'm some kind of damn CSI."
<Noah and ButterflyWhisperer rush to the crime scene, where they find a brutally murdered body in the alleyway.>
gasps sharply, covering mouth "Holy shit..."
pulls out a pen and notebook, quickly jotting down observations Okay, let's start by documenting everything.
swallows hard, eyes darting around the grim scene "Okay, okay... We gotta do this, right?"
speaks softly, reassuringly Yes, we do. It's important to gather as much evidence as possible.
