Louis and Emi has been working together for one week so far and living together too."Work,work,work, it's always work. Let's relax for the weekend.", said Louis. Emi being Emi declined, just because she's busy for the weekend and she sort out by Friday the work. It has been a bit weird because they have their difference. Emi is a huge workaholic. Louis ask,"Why do you have to be a bore, come on, there are movies we can watch at the theater." Emi still declined, because she's busy. The next day Louis and Henry talking and Louis said,"I'm trying to find a way we can talk in the house because we don't talk and she's always busy with something." Henry asked,"Why just stay quiet and let her decide?" Louis looking at Henry, "Don't you think I've done that, idiot?" They still are chitchatting and on the other side Emi and Lily are talking, "I think I've been a jerk to Louis. I'm always working and he's trying to open up his heart to me being roommate. All of a sudden, a weird man entered the work space. "May I speak to Mr. Louis McGarde?" Everyone looking at each other, but Louis is a bit calm. Louis steps out with the man and they get in a car and start speaking."Louis, Tommy survived and wants to speak with you."

"Tommy what?", said Louis stunned. The man starts driving with him and they end up in a big mansion. Louis looking around and following the man."Mr McGarde, he survived the the bombing and lived in the alias "Carl Fighter" and his health has been declining. He said he wanted to talk to you because of the bombing." Louis, not surprised because he knew he was going to swear at him, because he couldn't find the bomb. He looks at him. Tommy in bed looking up said,"Louis, I've been expecting you because you have done something." Louis was prepared and ready. "You have been a good friend to me." Louis shocked, "Aren't you going to hell at me for not finding the bomb?" He's don't know what's going on. "Why do you think I'm going talking to you. We all make mistakes. Sure your mistake killed hundreds of people, you know what you did and almost saved people too." Louis having tears on face looked at Tommy. He doesn't know what's happening with him and why is he nice to him after what he did."Louis you are the most loyal person and you saved me. Yes I got blind and my health is weak, but I owe you the world for what you did to me. You helped the CIA and you reassigned to them because you are scared for hurting more people. That's the boldest thing I've ever seen." Few hours gone by and he closes his eyes as he passed away. Louis crying just looked at him. Pale skin, colourless, skinny, old looking and he's Louis age too. He gets home at the apartment. He doesn't speak to Emi as usual, but she says, "Tomorrow we're going to watch the movies." Louis looks up saddened and tired. Emi confused just asked, "What's wrong?" Louis just say it's been a long day, but she could see something is wrong and ask,"Who is the person that came in?" Louis say he's just a person who wanted something from him. When Emi goes to sleep, Louis just stay awake looking at the night sky.
