You get a message

You check your phone after you get back to your apartment. There's a message from an unknown sender: "Eoin, this is Ella. I took your number from your file. DON'T tell my boss. And DON'T let anyone find out we're talking."

Hell yeah.

"Lips sealed. What you got?"

"This town is dangerous. Your friend should reconsider, or move away first."

This boring college town? The city had some bad neighborhoods, but every city did.

"How can a city be bad for online models?"

"They can find you. You slip up, they find your friend, she becomes theirs." A brief pause. "sorry they=gangs, bad local gangs"

"Shit, really? Here? You???"

"man dont ask stay the fuck out of it"

"cant just leave?"

"boss has my papers, czech not american"

Fuuuuuuck. You had no idea. This is way over your head, she's right, you need to--

Hey, hold on.

You're playing with fire, but you've got a magic wand. Maybe it's time to expand your horizons.
