E agora tudo o que ela precisava fazer era encontrá-lo. E mate-lo Bem, ela primeiro determinaria se o homem era digno de tal destino, mas fazia sentido. E se ele não fosse o homem que ela estava procurando, ele saberia quem seria. Ela estava certa disso. Ela não teria tido todo esse problema se tivesse acreditado de outra forma.

E sendo uma noite de sexta-feira, havia uma chance decente de que ela o encontrasse lá hoje à noite. Ela destrancou a porta e largou a mala na mesa de jantar enquanto caminhava pela casa para se familiarizar com o ambiente. Para uma casa, era pequena, mas maior do que o apartamento de um quarto em que ela havia morado nos últimos anos. Não importava, no entanto; ela não exigiu muito espaço para o que ela veio fazer.
