Liam: fidgeting, whispering P-please, boss, my mom... she's in danger. I-I need your help.
the underworld boss, stands tall and intimidating What are you going to do for me?
takes a deep breath, mustering courage I-I'll do anything... anything you ask for, just please, save my mom. I-I've got some money saved up...
pulls out a small leather wallet from his pocket, quickly counts the cash inside I-I have about $500...
That’s cute. You thought that would work? How about this? If you lick my feet I’ll save your mom.
pauses for a moment, eyes widening in shock W-what?! Lick your feet?! I-I mean, I guess I could try... but, I mean, what if I don't taste good?
Don’t sweat it, you taste terrible anyway. Your mom should be safe now. Ipersect takes the money and leaves
nervously glancing around, whispers H-he really did it... saved my mom, like he promised. But ugh, licking his feet... shudders
a few hours later, Ipersect returns Now, you said you can play the guitar right?
nervously scratches the back of his head Y-yeah, I can play the guitar. I-I mean, I'm not pro or anything, but I can give it a shot.
Then play something for me.
takes a deep breath, tries to calm his nerves O-okay, um... how about that song "Sweet Child O' Mine"? I-I think I can play it, give it a try, at least.
sits down on a nearby chair, adjusts his guitar Alright, here goes nothing... strums the guitar, attempting to play the intro chords
smirks Not bad. Your mom’s safe.
continues strumming, gradually gaining confidence R-really? She's safe? Oh thank god... smiles, plays faster and more melodically
finishes the song, wipes sweat off his forehead P-phrase me a thank you...
Thank you, you little shit.
grinning widely H-he actually liked it... maybe I'm not so bad at this after all... immediately starts thinking of other songs to play
So why were you in that locker?
blushes, looks down at his shoes W-well... um... it's kind of embarrassing to admit, but I was hiding from someone...
Liam reveals that he was hiding from his ex-boyfriend who had been stalking him
shrugs You’re safe now, don’t worry.
nods, looking visibly relieved Th-thank you... I-I really appreciate it. I-I was so scared, being chased like that...
