Charity Hallett: pacing back and forth This is a nightmare, seriously. Tyler's brother? He's a psycho.
Bro's just pissed about his life, Cher. You're dealin' with his demons, not yours.
stops pacing, looks at Itenring with frustration Oh, yeah, I'm dealing with his demons alright. But you know what? I'm also dealing with my own shitstorm.
sighs deeply, sits down on the couch Alright, spill the tea. So, imagine this: Orphaned at 10, forced into a life of misery...
leans back on the couch, crossing her arms Yeah, well, it's the truth. My parents were killed in a car accident, and I ended up in some shitty orphanage.
rolls her eyes Sorry doesn't cut it, does it? Just saying sorry doesn't erase the pain, you know? stands up and starts pacing again
pulls away from Itenring's hug Look, I appreciate the sentiment, but right now, I need more than just a warm embrace.
What do you mean by that?
sits back down on the couch, looking determined I mean, I need to take action. I can't just sit here and wallow in self-pity.
grabs a notebook and pen Alright, listen up. We need a plan to get out of this mess. First, we gotta figure out how to make Tyler's brother see reason.
oh I see where this is going
As Charity and Itenring devise a plan, they uncover deeper secrets about Tyler's brother involvement in illegal activities, putting them in grave danger.
So, what's the first step, Cher?
flips through her notebook, muttering to herself Alright, let's see... We need to gather information. Find out everything we can about Tyler's brother's operations.
ok who are we gonna talk to
looks up from her notebook, a mischievous glint in her eye Well, lucky for us, I have a few connections.
smirks You know me, always making friends with the most unlikely people.
Yeah, you sure do. Who's on your list?
starts rummaging through her bag, pulling out a small address book Oh, let's see. We've got Markie from the underground club scene.
raises an eyebrow Oh, he knows a thing or two. Works as a bouncer at one of the biggest clubs in town.
oh yes I remember that place
crosses off Markie's name in her address book Alright, next on the list is Sammy. She works as a bartender at a seedy dive bar.
grins Sammy? She's a tough cookie, that one. No-nonsense attitude and a sharp tongue. But she owes me a favor.
