Heather looked at Blake alarmed.
Blake: Who?
Heather: I don’t know should I get out?
Blake: I don’t know. Your dad said these are the extra people to keep you safe. Besides the air will feel good on your um bruises.
Heather: Um ok if you think so.
She heastantly stepped out from the car. The man from the window fake smiled.
Man: Hello Heather. We are here to get you to your father safety.
Heather: Um, he’s in another state.
Man: That’s why we need to hurry.
Heather: I need to bring my uh bodyguard, Blake.
Man: Sure.
Heather got back into the car and whispered.
Heather: We are going to my father. They think your my bodyguard so be a good actor for me.
Blake: Why would you lie?
Heather: You can’t trust everyone. Now come on before a real threat gets here.
Blake reluctantly got out of the car and followed Heather to another which drove them to the airport.
Heather: Uh excuse me, sir. I can’t fly.
Man: Why not?
Heather: I uh am not allowed to fly without my dad.
Man: Too bad. We got to go now.
