I was a little bit suspicious of Jonny, at the moment. I believed that his parents got him the flat, but what about everything else? The DIY stuff? The rent money? Oh God, the rent was due! I know this because I saw Jonny opening it on the balcony, out of reach from anyone else. Also, when I asked he seemed to blank me.

I hid behind the corner, and watched as Robbie passed a bag to Jonny. A few other words were said, and then Robbie and his goons left. I ran up to Jonny to check that everything was alright. We walked home together. Jonny didn't say a word. I tried to make smalltalk, but I only got an occasional grunt or nod from him.
