Retirement is not as relaxing as I thought it would be , August began to think about all the cases he had solved in his time . Being a detective had always been great for him but he thought maybe it was time he left and let others do the work .
He continued walking down the New York alley it had always been relaxing for him and it had became a habit sort of . August had always been great at hearing and surprisingly he could almost hear someones muffled screams in the distance
August stopped he began to walk back ain the direction he came from and he came to aholt.He peeked just at the edge of a building in asecluded area there was a woman walking but something just seemed off like those times where he would feel like something is gonna happen but he doesn't know just what
So he decided to follow the woman and she would not be suspicious of him much he was wearing his brown coatand ablack hat even if she were to be suspicious the hat was covering his face only his mouth was visible " I might be 55 but I still got it" August said to himself under his black sunhat
The woman took a turn and August followed her untill she turned .She began to San the area with her eyes and August changed the direction of his gaze and his posture changed ABIT so that she wouldn't be suspicious.The woman which August was following was wearing ablack dress and a black coat with ginger hair it was a bit chilly that day
August remained in the same position fearing that he might get caught.The woman who seemed to be 25 or so entered the big skyscraper and August let out a sigh of relief usually his instincts were never wrong but this time maybe they were because nothing had happened plus he had retired why was he stressing self out after all.
As he was about to leave a black van stopped at the entrance of the building and Aman in ablue suit came out .He was very light skinned black hair and sunshades he entered the building as he began to fix his buttons in a moment of show off.
August coudnt shake off the feeling this time he had to he entered the building and he began to climb the flight of stairs in an attempt to catch up with the man he arrived at afloor where they were pple running to meeting and others fixing their paperwork August almost felt isolated but at the end of the floor he saw the man who came out of the van and they exchanged glances in a menacing manner it was clear this visitor was not here to make friends.
A woman approached August
Woman : sir is there anything I can help you with
August: yes that man with the suit
Woman : he is our sponsor MrLewis
August: so he is here for a meeting
Woman : I suppose , but he wa supposed to be here on Friday maybe the meeting got rescheduled without me knowing
August was ryt something was not ryt about this whole thing adrenaline began to hit him as he rembered those moments back then when he would be investigating he began to feel the vibe again
He walked towards the end of the building where the man had walked towards . He saw the woman he had followed and he began to cover himself .
The woman was coming towards his direction he had to do something about it quickly but what?.
The woman arrived at the corner and August turned facing the wall and the woman did even pay attention to what was happening, she began to go down the flight of stairs and August began to follow and the woman got into the black van and August gaze met the drivers what was happening? . How did that man get back into the van really
The van began to go down the road and August saw a car approaching and he stopped it
Taxi driver : where are u going sir
August : Get out of the car
Taxi driver : oh am sorry are u planning to hijack me in public go to hell u physco
August : I'm sure gonna make sure u go there if you don't get out of the damn car
