Justin
Whatever. Stay away Nikki. This is happening.
Lina
Why?
She looks up at me. I wanted her to get to the point sooner, but now I realize she purposely strung this out. She wanted to get him chatting and slide in the question.
Justin
I told you how I feel. Not only isn’t he good enough he’s likely to get you arrested or killed. Ask him what happened to Dillan’s wife. Go on. He’s sitting right there.
Is he assuming? I glance out the windows in front and beside me. I don’t want to look over my shoulder in case he really can see us. I don’t want him to know that unnerves me.
Lina
You know what happens when you assume
Justin
Where else would he be? You’re probably sitting on his lap with his dick in you.
Lina turns a horrified face to me. How the hell does he know what we do in our place? No one comes into my place besides my family. I don’t have a housekeeper because my mother would never let that “laziness and entitlement” fly. Deliveries are dropped off at the desk and searched, then x-rayed for bugs and any other threat.
Justin
You should keep the curtains closed even if you aren’t on the ground floor. You know flying things fascinate me.
Drones.
Lina
You’ve watched me before but you asked. Do you think invading my privacy is winning me over?
What the ever-loving fuck?!
Justin
I don’t have to win you over.
Lina
Punishing me?
Justin
Punishing him. He endangers you. He doesn’t even know you. I do
Lina
Punishing Sean and wanting me away from him isn’t enough for you to do all this. Did Ewan put you up to this?
Justin
Don’t think I came up with this all on my own?
Lina
