"D-don't believe him! He…"
Mr. Saturday frantically turned to October, wanting to out Riley for the things he revealed to him. But he wasn't able to. Riley didn't lock his throat and larynx this time, and he didn't even suppress his movement, no.
This time, Mr. Saturday felt a sudden thud in his chest. A thud that rippled from his heart and caused his entire body to flinch and stop. He blinked and stared at October, who narrowed her eyes at him.
He then turned his focus back to Riley again, but it was hard to make out what his expression was due to the flickering red lights that were veiling his face.
But Mr. Saturday knew. He knew, despite the empty look on the boy's face, that he was warning him. If he said anything, he would stop his heart and kill him where he stood.
"We…" Mr. Saturday opened his mouth again, this time carefully while looking Riley straight in the eyes, and even more careful with the words he uttered, "...We need to kill him, Ms. October. He's dangerous."
