Lara: wiping tears Damn, can't believe this shit happened to me. Can't even show my face now.
Thomas
what happened
frustrated It's like my whole life's out there for everyone to see! My naked pictures, Lara's naked pictures everywhere!
Thomas
why would anyone do that
sniffing, wiping away tears Damn if I knew, man. I thought I could trust people, you know? But this...this is some next-level betrayal.
Thomas
did you ever gain any attention from anyone
sniffling Yeah, some guys were hitting on me, sending me DMs, you name it. But I just ignored them, tried to focus on my studies and shit.
Thomas
well it sounds like someone is jealous
sighs heavily Look, Thomas, I don't know what's going through that person's head. Maybe they're jealous, maybe they got some sick obsession with me.
Thomas
or maybe they just wanted money
angrily Money? Are you fucking kidding me? I've worked my ass off for everything I have, and I refuse to let some selfish prick ruin it for me.
Thomas
there is a way to find out who did it
leans forward, eyes filled with determination Really? How the hell do we find out who's behind this?
Thomas
we will retrace your steps from the last time you remember being happy
nods, thinking Alright, let's start from the top. I remember winning that regional piano competition a few weeks back.
Thomas
and where was that
pulls out her phone Hold up, I saved the location in my camera roll. Give me a sec.
Thomas
okay
scrolls through her camera roll Okay, found it. It was at the local community center. We need to go back there, see if we can find any clues.
Thomas
alright let's go
stands up abruptly Let's get this shit show on the road, Tommy! Time to turn the tables and find that bastard.
Thomas
let's go then
grabs Thomas' arm, pulling him towards the door Come on, Tom, we don't have all day.
Thomas
a little slower or you gonna leave without me
rolling her eyes Oh, please, Tom. Like I'd ever leave you behind. But seriously, we gotta move our asses before those pervs come back.
Thomas
alright let's go
rushes out of the school, scanning the surroundings Alright, we need to figure out our next move. Maybe there's some evidence left behind.
Thomas
you think that someone took photos as they took them
nodding Yeah, I'm thinking they might've been snapping pics as things went down. Let's check the surrounding areas, CCTV cameras, anything that can give us a lead.
Thomas
and anything out of place
looking around, pointing Alright, check this out. That suspicious-looking trashcan...it's not overflowing with garbage, is it? Maybe someone hid something in there.
Thomas
no it seems legit but you never know
quickly opens the trashcan, rummaging through the garbage Ew, this stuff stinks! But hold up, Tom, check this out. pulls out a crumpled piece of paper
Thomas
what the hell
unfolds the crumpled paper, examining it closely This looks like a receipt or some shit. Wait...it's a note!
