Entry 74. June 19, 2009.
[x] Stay at the table with Melanie.
"What? Why are you jumping in at a time like this? A drink would have actually been good right now."
"Nah, I'll be fine too," Felix responds, staying seated next to Melanie. Roberta rolls her eyes and says, "You two are really boring." They go up to the bar to get some drinks. "Felix, you can get something if you want. I don't mind," Melanie says. "No, it's really okay. It's probably better to keep alcohol out of my system tonight anyway. We shouldn't let our guard down around them," he insists. Moments later, Roberta and Selest come back to the table with their drinks. The four of them chat and get to know each other better. Roberta shares her stories about her interesting relationship with Francis. Selest talks about her life and her goals. Melanie and Felix talk about their relationship and future plans. Before they know it, it's much later and the club is really coming to life. Several people constantly give Felix and Melanie dirty looks. "They're my friends! Really! Haha!" Roberta laughs.
Chad stands in the doorway to Nicholas' bedroom and watches him get ready. "You almost look like a secret agent dressed like that, Nick," Chad laughs. "I don't think the government would take kindly to our plans," Nicholas smiles, checking his gun. "Yes. Haha. You can not make any mistakes tonight. If you are right, this may be our last chance to tie up the loose ends," he says, much more seriously. "I understand. I was simply unlucky today. It will not happen again," Nicholas replies, screwing on his silencer.
Rose lies in bed, reading Chad's diary as usual. However, this night, signs of stress are clearly visible on her face. "I can't believe he was smart enough to see one step ahead of us... Damn him," she mutters. "Selest better not let us down," she thinks to herself, before becoming consumed by Chad's bizarre entries once again.
"Mommy, it's so late... Why isn't Daddy home yet?" Clare asks. "Don't worry, sweetheart. I'm sure everything is okay. Daddy is a very busy man," her mother reassures her, masking her own worry.
The heavy beat of the music becomes too powerful to ignore any longer. With several drinks in them, Roberta and Selest are ready to have some fun. They get up and head towards the dancing crowd. "Join us! Come on! Dance with us!" they scream. Melanie looks at Felix hesitatingly, unsure if she wants to join the strange and unwelcoming crowd.
[] Dance! Dance!
[] Decline and step outside for some air.
What are the voices inside Felix's head telling him to do?
