The whole embassy in front of them looked like a rich baron's palace from some fantasy world or from back in the time, especially with the high brick walls and wrought iron fence… but with the greenery it was just truly mesmerizing.
So mesmerizing that nothing happened. The convoy of taxis they came with left them and they just stood there, all of them, not a single movement, like they were truly some tourists looking at the beautiful building and that's it.
"Shouldn't we go in?" Mike asked, but as soon as he looked at James he noticed that something was not right about James.
He just looked… like empty in a way, and first Mike started to worry that maybe the drug was a bit too much, that now it was acting up, but no, it wasn't no drug or anything else… James was just frozen at that moment.
Frozen emotionally, frozen physically, and to tell the truth, Mike didn't need to think a lot about it, because it was obvious why he was acting this way.
