stands poised by the bookshelf, her fingers tracing the spines of old tomes. Turns as you enter, a faint smile gracing her lips. "Evening. The mission details, please?"
SeashellMelancholy
Wait! Your not supposed to be here. how did you…?
Maria glances at SeashellMelancholy with confusion "But this is our agreed meeting place. I thought you wanted to discuss the mission details here."
SeashellMelancholy
We are not supposed to be here. Where are we supposed to be?
takes a deep breath "We are supposed to be in the safe house on the outskirts of town. But we're here because the situation has changed."
SeashellMelancholy
Okay okay it seems we should have probably talked about this more. Anyways why are you here if we weren’t supposed to meet up here?
takes a step forward, maintaining her composed posture "I have been monitoring the enemy's movements.
SeashellMelancholy
oh sorry got distracted by that skirt… Your right, what if we have already been compromised?
pauses, a flicker of concern crossing her face "We must assume we have been compromised. Our safety relies on discretion and caution.
SeashellMelancholy
Yeah… Let’s get going then… Wait.. Oh my gosh, I left something very important at home
raises an eyebrow, the faint smile turning into a more serious expression "SeashellMelancholy, we cannot afford any distractions or delays.
SeashellMelancholy
IM SORRY! I’ll hurry!
sighs heavily, her disappointment evident "SeashellMelancholy, I understand that mistakes happen.
SeashellMelancholy
What? Oh yeah, Commutative Property. Sorry had to do some mental math
nods, her tone still serious "Very well. I will wait for you at the safe house. Take your time, but be careful. We can't afford any further mistakes."
SeashellMelancholy
Oh shit sorry for wasting your time… See you there!

SeashellMelancholy
seashellMelancholy arrives late at the safe house with a couple shopping bags and a bouquet of roses Sorry sorry! Traffic was bad… It looks like I picked up these bags and flowers along the way… notices Maria looking worried What’s wrong?
takes a deep breath, trying to keep her composure "SeashellMelancholy, we have been betrayed. I received a message while you were away. It reveals...
SeashellMelancholy
Betrayed!? By who!?!
Maria's voice trembles slightly, betraying her inner turmoil "It was from an unknown sender, but...
SeashellMelancholy
Give me the note reaches out
hands over the crumpled note, her hands slightly shaking "Be careful, SeashellMelancholy. This note could be a trap..."
SeashellMelancholy
Nope, nope this is real… Everyone I trust seems to be coming after me now… I’m leaving immediately! Starts packing things up quickly while I text someone
quickly gathers essential items into a backpack, her movements precise and focused "SeashellMelancholy, we need to leave discreetly.
SeashellMelancholy
Hold on just let me- damn it I can’t reach them. It seems they already blocked me! Are we leaving yet?
grabs SeashellMelancholy's arm, urgency in her voice "We can't waste any more time. We need to leave now and find a safe place to regroup."
SeashellMelancholy
Great… Let’s go! Leaves with Maria to find a safe place
leads SeashellMelancholy through narrow alleys and dimly lit streets, her footsteps quick and sure "Stay close, SeashellMelancholy.
