"Jessie?" Katherine called her friend.
"Yes?" Jessie replied.
"What do we tell them?" She asked.
Jessie sighed, remaining silent for a moment.
"It depends on how much they know" Jessie said. "Let's allow them lead the conversation, that way we wouldn't have to tell them any more than they already know." She continued.
Katherine sighed. "How did that big dummy even find out?"
"That's true, it was way too soon. Do you think he saw the video?" She asked.
"That is possible, ah... how could we be so stupid." Katherine frowned.
"It doesn't matter, no matter what happens we have to stand our ground. We cannot let them guilt us into submission." Jessie said.
"Yeah. I totally agree with you, we have the right to make our own decisions!" Katherine nodded.
"Yeah, and we don't owe them any explanations, we're not in any form of relationship with them." Jessie affirmed.
"Preach it sister."
The elevator dinged open and they both stepped out, and walked to the door of the penthouse.
"Wait... what if this doesn't work?" Katherine said.
Jessie nodded slowly, "that's true, we need a plan B."
"Yeah, it won't hurt to be more prepared."
"We could deny everything" Jessie suggested.
"So where would we say we where instead?" Katherine asked.
"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Jessie said.
"I think so... but I don't have any cash. We can't exactly go shopping in less than an hour." Katherine said.
Jessie nodded then she snapped her fingers. "We can use the mall in this building, there's a store in there that looks like Choongs department store."
"Really?"
Jessie nodded.
"What are we waiting for?" Katherine asked as the two women sprinted back to the elevator.
***************************************************
"What the hell is taking them so long!" Jason yelled.
"I have no idea, the police captain assured me someone bailed Katherine out. They should be here already." Paul said his tone holding the same annoyance that Jason's carried.

"Hey, you said you put a tracking device in Jessie's phone" Paul said.
"Actually it in her body, they put one in all the women at the whore house." Jason said.
Paul's eyes widened "what do you mean in her? Does she know about this?"
"Obviously not, but I guess it's a good thing right?" He shrugged.
Jason turned around and grinned. "I've been so swarmed lately I haven't even activated it."
Jason grabbed his laptop and turned it on. Paul leaned down besides him and stared into the screen.
"Wait, that says they are in the building" Paul said.
"Yeah, but why are they not coming up?" Jason wondered aloud.
"Can it be more specific?" Paul asked.
"Yeah, I can get it to act like a Gps and lead me to her." Jason said, connecting it to his phone he and Paul left the apartment in search for Jessie.
They followed the GPS to the mall a few floors below. Walking into the store the store the both of them searched with their eyes.
"Are you sure this is it? I don't see Jessie." Paul asked.
"I'm sure, it's not moving anymore, the red dot." Jason said.
"Shhhh... listen that sounds like Katherine." Paul said, walking around the island to the other side of the rack of snacks.
The both of them stood in shock as they looked at the women they spent the entire afternoon waiting for.
"What do you think they are doing?" Paul asked.
"I have no idea" Jason said his tone carrying the same amount of shock Paul's carried.
Jason huffed "did you convey the urgency of this meeting in your text?"
"I'm sure I used an unhealthy amount of exclamation marks and angry emojis. What the hell are they doing?" Paul scoffed.
Paul stared at the two women that didn't notice their presence yet, He grabbed Jason's arm and stopped him from walking over to them.

He laughed sarcastically, "Why are you stopping me?"
"Think about it, what would they be doing taking selfies in this store?"
Jason gave him a pointed stare, shaking his head.
"They're trying to gather proof."
"Proof of what?" Jason asked.
"Proof that they weren't in the hospital today, especially Jessie. I'm sure this was her idea, they are going to deny it." Paul said.
"How foolish, we know that it was Jessie that posted that video plus you have the footage from the camera." Jason said.
"Yeah... but they don't know that, even if we have the video their faces aren't showing. I'm sure neither of them thought of the CCTV camera."
Jason shook his head and huffed. "Wow...." He shook his head, watching as they both giggled and changed poses.
"Daebak!"
"Wow!.."
"We can't let them get away with this." Paul said.
"Certainly not." Jason agreed.
"What are you doing?" Paul asked.
"What does it look like? I'm taking my own evidence. Call Katherine and ask her where she is."
"Yeah, sure." He took out his phone and dialed her number.
***************************************************
"Here, you take this one, you have longer arms" Katherine handed the phone to Jessie.
"Sure" Jessie stretched the phone to take what they agreed would be the last photo. "Hmm? It's ringing, it's Paul!"
Katherine looked at Jessie and shook her head.
"I don't want to answer it."
"You have too, he's going to suspect if you don't." Jessie insisted, pressing the green button and handing the phone to Katherine.
"Kat?" Paul said from the speaker.
Katherine looked at Jessie and frowned. Jessie motioned for her to say something.
"Hey what's up?" She said trying to be calm.
"Where are you?"
"Where else would I be? I'm on my way to Jason's house." She said.
"Why are you taking so long? We've been waiting for more than an hour." Paul said.
"Ahh... we're stuck in traffic." She said, looking at Jessie.
"Oh yeah? Why is it so quiet then?" He asked.
Katherine's eyes widened she put her hand over the speaker and whispered to Jessie. "Make traffic noises!"
"What? How?"
"I don't know, improvise aren't you an actress?"
"An actress not a car!" Jessie huffed.
Katherine removed her hands and put the phone on loud speaker.
"What do you mean it's not quiet at all."
"Hey! Mister! Get out of the way!" Jessie yelled her voice mimicking a man's.
She started to make ambulance noises and imitating horns.
Katherine gave her a thumbs up and smiled.
"Hello? Paul? Are you there?"
She heard him clear his throat before he spoke. "How long till you get here?" He asked.
"Uh, we're almost here, okay bye!" She cut the call quickly as Jessie was already gasping for air.
"Wow!" She clapped. "You are talented."
**************************************************
Jason almost dropped the phone he used to video them when Jessie started to make noises, his hand flew to his mouth as he struggled to hide his shock.
Paul covered the speaker and tried to stifle his laughter when she yelled. He couldn't hold it any longer when she started to mimic an ambulance.
Other shoppers turned to look at the two women that were causing such a ruckus. They didn't even care that they were attracting attention.
"Hello? Paul? Are you there?" Katherine said from the speaker.
Paul cleared his throat and answered.
"How long till you get here?" He asked.
"Uh, we're almost here, okay bye!" She cut the call.
"I cannot believe what I just saw" Paul shook his head.
"Same here."
"So what now?" Paul asked.
"Let's see how they go with the lie" Jason said.
