Un-Wanted Friend

Jack returned from work. To feed the birds, he goes to Bella's house. He looks around before taking out the trash. In the building, an elderly woman approaches Jack. As Jack was putting the trash away, he noticed the elderly woman giving him a sidelong glance. After a little moment of discomfort, he asks.

Hi, how can I help you? Jack asks.

You are the new kid in the building, and you are the police officer. I want to talk to you. Can you come by my apartment later? I live on the ground floor in apartment 7b, "the woman says. Before leaving, she says. My name is Halen Elizabeth Wall. She whispers in his ear.

Just wait up. Listen to me. Jack ran up to Halen. She stops and looks at him.

If there is something serious, "So I can come to your house now," to Halen, "Jack says."

"No, come to my apartment later," Halen says while walking away from him.
