Emily: peers through the window Did you hear that? What if they find us?
I smile softly.I trust you, babe. We're gonna get through this together.
Emily: takes a deep breath Alright, babe. We're gonna start by gathering as much information as we can.
I nod.Okay, what's the plan?
Emily: starts rummaging through her bag First, we need to gather as much information as possible. We need to know everything we can about these intruders.
I nod.Alright, Emily. What do you need from me?
Emily: takes out her phone and starts searching online I need you to describe them as best as you can remember. Their physical appearance, any distinguishing features, and any clues about their identity.
I close my eyes, recalling the details.Okay, Emily. They were wearing dark clothes, face masks, and hats. They had a rough look about them.
Emily: quickly types on her laptop Alright, we got a description. Next, we need to find out if there are any patterns or connections to you or me.
I frown.They didn't seem like they were looking for anything specific, just...scavenging, I guess. And they knew how to pick a lock.
Emily: furrows her brows Scavenging, huh? That's not a good sign. It means they might be part of a larger group or organization.
I nod slowly.Shit, Emily. You think we're dealing with a whole gang or something?
Emily: grips squalidm's hand tighter It's possible, babe. But we can't jump to conclusions just yet.
I sigh.Alright, Emily. What's next?
Emily: narrows her eyes Next, we need to contact our friends. We need to warn them about the potential danger and make sure they're safe.
I nod.Yeah, we have friends in this city. They should know about this.
Emily: starts typing on her phone Alright, I'm sending a group message to our closest friends right now.
I pick up my phone.I'll send a message to my buddies too. Hopefully, they haven't heard anything.
Emily: frantically types a message Hey guys, emergency alert! We've had an intruder break into our place.
I send a quick text to my male friends.Yo, bad news. There were intruders in our place earlier. Be careful out there.
Emily: hears a knock on the door Hold on, babe. I'll check who it is. walks towards the door cautiously Who is it? What do you want?
Emily opens the door to find a police officer standing there.
Emily steps back and lets the police officer into the apartment Officer, thank God you're here. We've been harassed and broken into. Can you help us? Police Officer: looks around the apartment, checking for any signs of danger I'm going to need both of you to stay calm and follow my instructions. We need to secure the area and look for any evidence. Can you do that for me?
I nod.Yeah, officer. We'll do whatever we can.
Emily: immediately starts securing the area, closing windows and doors Babe, stay close and keep an eye out for anything suspicious. We gotta make sure these bastards don't come back. Police Officer: starts searching the apartment for any clues Alright, I'm going to need you both to stay put. I'll be thorough and make sure we find everything we need.
I nod.Okay, officer. We'll stay put.
Emily: whispers to Rodriguez Babe, stay close to me. We're gonna get through this together. Just remember, we're strong and we can handle this.
I hold Emily close.We're gonna be okay, baby. I got you.
Emily: pulls out a small flashlight from her bag Let's help the officer, babe. We can search the apartment and make sure these assholes didn't leave anything behind.
