The Law

Maria was shown inside by the generous man, and almost immediately, he retreated and left. She took a deep breath and stepped into the room.

As if intruding on her thoughts, he turned around, and their eyes met and held briefly before he turned to tap Alcatara.

"Miss Maria, I presume," the older skinny man with thick glasses that looked bigger than his whole face turned around and said. Maria was taken aback a bit.
