(When Theo left Sarah alone to receive the call from tom)

'Where the hell are you Theo? There is a meeting in a few minutes' Tom barked

Theo pinches his nose as he completely forgets about the meeting 'Fuck... I forget..look, Tom, you can attend that on my behalf too. I don't think I can come in this short notice'

Tom replied 'OK! But still where are you?'

Theo sarcastically replied 'Following your stupid plan ..(Theo sighs) I'm with Sarah...I brought her for shopping'

There was silence from the Tom side then he said 'Oh ....so nothing works'

Tom gets angry 'yeah like shit work... I told you I can't act like this with her...and I was right it's useless...she won't even reply me properly all she does yes, no and nothing that's her response...I'm telling you I can't act like this. I want you to contact that Evan guy and found out more truth about that 12 Dec night...and I need this time a bigger and clear proof not like before where police didn't believe us as they can't even fucking see their faces...i need something new tom' Theo barked

Tom tries to relax 'Theo bro just chill ok...why you think she will open her mouth just like that, you have scared her to death....do you think all of a sudden she will trust you and tell all her dirty secrets?..and as per Evan I contacted him to check on Perry guy..he told me it's true that Perry left the night before that bastard Simon and Tina...and I also told him about drugging Tina thing ..Evan assure me he comes with something.....(Tom sighs loudly) now tell me what you ask and how Sarah respond'

Theo picks out his cigarette pack and put one in his mouth ...he was craving this thing... 'I was fucking thinking I'm bringing her to shopping, buying clothes, taking her to expensive restaurants..even trying to involve her in a bullshit chat..that's what chicks want...so I did that...and then I ask her about Perry guy...and Tom, believe me, I saw from my own eyes she become so tense and she made a face like she remember something when I asked her what is it she told me just big NOTHING ...and I get a little angry but I control it on time...then you called me and I'm here in this fucking smoking area'

Tom was clearly irritated by this news too 'Damn it she will not tell us like this...fuck...so she knew something but Theo you did the right thing that you try to control your anger..maybe not now but sometimes she may open her mouth. And forget sake Theo stop smoking so much ...it like poison to you, it makes you lose your mind more '
