Raoul is eating his breakfast in peace while the waiter is going to another customer, and is going to the one with the bandage on his hand. When the waiter got close to the man, he observed that his skin is becoming a light green.


    "Are you alright, sir?" asks the waiter to that man.


    "Um. Yeah." says the man feeling a little dizzy. "Probably some sick."


    "Should I call Medics to come to see if you are truly alright?"


    "D-Don''t worry." says the man to the waiter. "Give me a coffee and I will be alright."


    "Alright, sir." says the waiter to that man feeling sceptical about the thing he said earlier.


    The waiter is going to his table while that man is staying on the chair, he puts his head on the table and scratches his right cheek who shows two blue veins.


    In a few minutes, Raoul finished his breakfast and is heading outside this restaurant to the exit of this building. When he got the automatic door, he leaves the building and heads outside, where is heading to a bench, sits there, takes one cigarette from his pocket, and lights it up with the lighter he has stored on the left pocket of his pants.


    After he lights the cigarette from his mouth, he puts the lighter back on his pocket from the pants and enjoys the cigarette while it is looking on the sky where he sees a plane flying at a high altitude. He also sees a woman coming close to him, dressed in an office worker outfit, she wears makeup and a pair of glasses to help her read or to operate on computer, and has her hair is brown colour on bun style.


    "Do you have a lighter?"


    "Sure." says Raoul with his cigarette on his mouth, lighting the cigarette that lady put on her mouth.


    "Thank you." respond the lady leaving Raoul alone on the bench.


    "You''re welcome." says Raoul when that lady left him and heading to the closest bus station.


    Raoul enjoys the cigarette for a few more minutes, until he stomps on it, and threw it on the trash can next to the bench he was sitting. He is heading to the inside of the hotel and goes back to his room to dress up for the job he will be about to pull off in almost one hour with the source.

    One hour later, Raoul leaves the bus he took it, and heads to a building who is having a sign, "Phone Chargers", a shop where people with no phone batteries are coming there, pays about ten to twenty euros to either charge their dying phone, or to buy a battery phone who will keep their mobile device living for one to three weeks, but it is very expensive this thing, plus it might cost higher for newer models. Raoul enters the building, he sees nine tables to the walls, where a few teenagers, young adults or adults are staying there and using their phones while they are charging, or some other customers staying on the line to buy battery for their mobile device.


    A guy sees Raoul, he leaves his table and heads on Raoul direction, leaving his phone together with the Starbucks coffee on that table. He shakes Raoul hand and he is introducing himself.


    "The Name is Pierre Philippe." says the man stopping to shake the man hand. "Are you Raoul, right? The journalist who said he will be coming here?"


    "Yes." responds Raoul to Pierre. "And where did you say the scoop might be located?"


    "Person who wanted to hear what he wanted, am I right?... Alright, but first I have got to let my phone charge. It will take three more minutes."


    "I see." says Raoul to that guy who is walking back to his table and do wait for his phone to get charged.


    Raoul is going outside this store, he stays on the bench there, and waits for the man to finish up his charging to his phone. While he waits for Pierre to finish up his charging, he is opening his phone, and he sees a notification on his phone, it is a message, coming from his brother.


    "Brother, we have some problem at home." that was the message his brother sent to him.


    Raoul didn''t type, and instead he calls on his phone his brother. While he waits for him to pick it up, he sees a police car running down the street, with his sirens turned on. He didn''t care because this is a normal thing on today world.


    "Yeah, brother?" asks his brother from the phone.


    "What is it?" asks Raoul on the phone.


    "Is it Father, big brother. He is at the Hospital. On Saint Malo."


    "What? How? What happened?" asks Raoul shocked by this information. "Is it alright?"


    "I don''t know what happened, he just woke up on this morning, with pain on the head, and high temperature. He has also had a seizure while we were driving him to the Hospital."


    "My God."


    "Brother. You have to come here."


    "I cannot right now. I will try later to come there. I promise."


    "Again, with the work?"


    "...Yes."


    "Brother..."


    "I am sorry, Gregory. You know I need those moneys."


    "I know, I know. But please, be here. Your father needs you here."


    "I''ll be there as soon as I can. I promise."


    "Alright, bye and be careful."


    "Bye, brother." says Gregory who is closing up the call.


    Raoul is looking at the phone astonished. This news to him, it is making him feel sorry because he isn''t there for his Father.
