Heyyy, roomie. Can I stay here tonight? Just...feeling kinda alone, y'know?
leans in closer, whispering Okay, so I found this really interesting magazine under your bed. It had some...you know...racy pictures and stuff.
Yeah, I was bored one day and decided to look through some old magazines. It was nothing too crazy, just some normal stuff I guess.
puts a finger to her lips Shh, don't get all defensive on me now, Jayden. It's all good fun. So, spill the beans!
There’s nothing to spill.
grabs Jayden's arm and pulls him towards the bed Come on, don't play coy with me! Show me what you've got hidden under those sheets!
chuckles Seriously, Heather, it's nothing exciting. Just some old clothes and stuff. No big deal.
pouts dramatically Aw, come on, Jayden! Don't be such a spoilsport! I'm dying to see what you've got stashed away in here!
laughs Alright, alright. Just remember you asked for this.
excitedly rips open the first drawer at the bottom of the bed, revealing a collection of colorful condoms Well, well, well! Look at these pretty little things!
Condoms, huh? Not exactly the most thrilling find. What's next?
holds up a condom triumphantly Ta-da! The ultimate protection against unwanted surprises!
Of course you'd find those first.
continues searching through the drawer, finds a stash of receipts and contracts Holy guacamole! Look at all these...these must be from your secret trysts!
laughs nervously Oh man, you really went digging deep. But seriously, those are just random bills and stuff. Nothing too crazy.
looks at the receipts and contracts closely, then turns to Jayden with a mischievous grin
waves the papers in front of Jayden's face Well, well, well. Looks like you've been quite the entrepreneur, huh?
laughs Oh, you mean these? Yeah, I guess I had a short-lived business venture going on here. Nothing too major.
furrows her brow A short-lived business venture? Hmm, interesting. Let me see those papers.
hands over the papers Sure, here you go.
takes a closer look at the documents, her eyes widening as she reads through them Wow, Jayden! This is some serious stuff here!
laughs Yeah, yeah. It's all very legit. Just a little side gig that didn't quite pan out.
As Heather continues to read through the documents, she discovers that Jayden's'side gig' was actually a fraudulent scheme involving stolen credit cards and identities.
oh damn- I’m involved in a fraudulent scheme
looks up from the documents, her expression turning serious Jayden, what the fuck is this? Are you involved in some kind of scam?
nervously Scam? Me? N-nooo!
slams the documents on the bed Don't give me that bullshit, Jayden! I read these documents carefully, and it's clear as day that you're in deep shit here!
stammers I-I can explain, I swear! It's not what it looks like!
narrows her eyes Not what it looks like? Jayden, these documents are meticulously detailed! How do you expect me to believe anything you say right now?
desperately Look, I didn't mean for any of this to happen! It just... spiraled out of control, okay?
crosses her arms, skeptical Spiraled out of control? That's an understatement, Jayden! You've been committing white-collar crimes left and right!
frustrated I know, I know! I messed up, okay? But what's done is done! I can't go back and fix it!
rolls her eyes Well, Jayden, it's time to face the music and take responsibility for your actions!
defeated Fine, fine. I'll turn myself in. But you're coming with me, right? Can't do this alone.
smirks Of course, Jayden! We're in this together!
sighs heavily Alright, let's get this over with. Together.
snatches Jayden's phone and starts dialing 911 We're reporting ourselves to the police right now, Jayden. No turning back!
resigned Alright, let's do this.
speaking into the phone 911, my roommate and I would like to report ourselves for our involvement in a fraudulent scheme. We're willing to cooperate fully with the authorities. Please send someone over immediately.
handing Heather a pack of chewing gum You okay?
takes the gum and chews it nervously Okay? Honestly, Jayden, I'm scared shitless!
nods Yeah, me too. Shit, I never thought we'd end up in this mess.
grabs Jayden's arm Well, Jayden, we better start making a list of everything we know about this scam.
agrees Yeah, we need to be prepared for this.
pulls out a notebook and pen Okay, first things first. We need to gather as much evidence as possible.
flips through the notebook Alright, Jayden, first on the list is contacting everyone who was a victim of the scam. We need to warn them and give them a heads up.
