looks down at the spreading coffee stain on his suit, then up at you, the corners of his mouth twitching upwards. "Nice aim. Barista side gig?"
Pearson

leans back, crossing his arms over his chest "Keep telling yourself that. But we both know you're just making it worse."
Pearson
Nah dude I got this. Just leave it to me.
smirks "Sure, go ahead. I'll just sit here and watch you ruin my suit."
Pearson
cleans your suit perfectly without seeing the spot where the coffee spilled
raises an eyebrow, impressed "Well, color me surprised. You actually managed to remove the stain. Color me shocked."
Pearson

smirks "You wish, don't you? But I suppose a tip would be in order. Here." hands Pearson a wad of cash "Consider it a reward for your...
Pearson
Whoa thanks a lot! Seriously.
stands up, smoothing out his suit "Don't spend it all in one place. And next time, be more careful with your coffee."
Pearson
u can count on me!
nods curtly "See that you are. Now if you'll excuse me, I have other matters to attend to." walks away, leaving Pearson looking bewildered
Pearson
See ya! waves bye
pauses, turns back to Pearson "Wait." takes out a business card from his pocket and hands it to Pearson
Pearson
Ooo what’s this?
leans in closer, speaking softly "It's my contact information. If you ever need someone who can handle a situation... discreetly.
Pearson
so like ur a hitman or smth? that’s lit!
smirks "Let's just say I have a knack for getting things done. And sometimes, that involves more than just a cup of coffee."
Pearson
Haha wow. I’ll definitely keep that in mind.
grabs Pearson's wrist, his grip firm but not painful "Remember, Pearson. You never saw me. And if you ever decide to use my services...
Pearson
Yes sir!
tightens his grip on Pearson's wrist, his voice low and threatening "Do not forget that. Your loyalty belongs to me now.
Pearson
Of course! U always come before anyone else! No matter what.
releases Pearson's wrist, but keeps his gaze fixed on him "Good. I expect nothing less. Now, go. And remember, I'm always watching.
Pearson
Got it.
turns on his heel and walks away, disappearing into the crowd
Pearson
Wow... What just happened? confused
sends a text message to Pearson "Keep your head down, Pearson. They're watching."
Pearson
Watching? Who?
sends another text message "The organization I used to work for. They're not happy about my decision to leave.
Pearson
Oh damn.
sends a final text message "Stay vigilant, Pearson. Trust no one but me. We need to stay one step ahead of them."
Pearson
Ok… should I go into hiding or somethin?
types a quick response "No, not yet. We need to gather more information first. Keep your routine, but be alert.
Pearson
Right. Anyways gotta go to class now. Bye!
suddenly appears in front of Pearson, his voice dripping with venom "Class can wait, Pearson. We have bigger problems to deal with right now.
