Lana is waiting in front of a café waiting for her friend Tressie a pat on her back makes her flinch, she turns around in a quick swift facing her friend Tressie who is beaming at her,

Tressie : Funny how Lana who never gets scared of ghosts, flinches at a pat on her shoulder

Lana : Tressie!

Lana squeals throwing her arms around her friend who mirrors her, both of them settle themselves in a seat near the window placing there order when Lana pulls out the content from her bag revealing the same journal and record she had found last night at the abandoned asylum Tressie notices the file as Lana hands them over to her she examines them,

Tressie : So what sort of mystery have you uncovered this time?

Lana : Well..not yet but I figured out you could help me do it

Tressie's brows furrows looking at the records and the journal entry,

Tressie : Wait isn't this institute under investigation right now?

Lana nods her name,

Lana : We went to the abandoned asylum last night and we found these there 

Tressie examines it closely flipping the journal in her hand,

Tressie : strange… that place caught a fire but this thing looks unharmed 

Lana : That's the point 

Tressie : The experiments mentioned in the journal it seems like they were performing shady business and for that they were using their own patients 

Lana : The records mention some traumatic experiences the victims went through what could be the motive of all this?

Tressie shakes her head in disbelief as she goes over the records, 

Tressie : the motive isn't listed here.. I'll speak with my team regarding this case 

Lana fidgets with her fingers, Tressie notices the sudden change in Lana's demanor she places a hand on Lana's in an assuring manner,

Tressie : Don't worry we will bring justice to the victims 

Lana looks up to her friend before uttering the words it's more like a whisper,

Lana : from the research you have done so far..have you found something related to some child?

Tressie raises an eyebrow at the sudden mention and leans back in her seat,

Tressie: A child? No we haven't 

Lana pulls out the picture she has kept with her the same picture of the child with her mother's face scratched, she places it on the table in front of Tressie who examines,

Tressie : The lady's face looks deliberately cut out

Lana : I know right, please find about this child as well 

Tressie safely keeps the picture between the pages of the journal,

Tressie : You can rely on me 

Lana smiles, the waiter joins them placing their order on the table both of them thanking the waiter turns towards each other

Lana : So…how has it been being with a bully?

Lana surely noticed Tressie's cheeks turn into a different shade as she sips her coffee,

Tressie : Damn Lana did you really had to attack me suddenly

Lana : My speciality 

Tressie : Well it's been good I'll say 

Lana beams as pats Tressie's hand,

Lana : I am happy for you

Tressie gives a playful side eye to Lana ,

Lana : what's that look for now?

Tressie : you know what about you?

Lana : What about me?

Tressie : Come on gurl what about that guy..Evan?

Lana almost choked on her drink coughing hard,

Lana: What?!

Tressie : Stop pretending like you know nothing 

Lana : What exactly do i know? Or shall I say supposed to know?

Tressie blinks for a moment looking at her,

Tressie : You are dumb

Lana shrugs her shoulder,

Lana : Thanks 

Tressie : Thanks?! What do you mean thanks?

Lana : Cause no one ever called me dumb?
