Chapter 71: “Well I don’t care”

I had never visited Exotica during the day. The building seemed odd in the morning sun without the blazing neon lights adorning the building. It was still a beautiful building but seemed to lack luster and that aura that the night brings.

All four of us- Blu, Charlie, Alex and I were being guided by a bodyguard to enter the building through a backdoor in the alley beside it.

We followed the bodyguard silently in the alley. It wasn’t as shabby as I expected it to be, maybe Julian took care of its cleanliness but it still had graffiti here and there of obscene images and words. My shoes scuffed against the rough ground or maybe I was unintentionally dragging my feet while walking because I could feel the extra effort I was putting in to walk. Maybe my brain knew that the events following this will not be good ones.
