Omnious

Fredric was dizzy, his dream of fortune had come and not at the same time, he would have to spend a lot of time investigating exactly how he could cut himself loose from the mess that this certainly meant.

He sat there trying to think, but it quickly dawned on him that it did little but build worry and figured it might do some good to do something else.

Fredric walked in a tunnel visioned stupor around in the store, but he could not help but imagine that some people was staring, but he shook it off as the app, though he think he could see some males looking his way too. He figured that they were probably just curious of the attention.

The self check out had a queue weirdly enough, but the cashier was soon free as the elderly man who stood there was just about to pay. Fredric started loading his wares onto the belt, the old man in front of him started digging out some coupons out of his pockets delaying the transaction a bit further.

“Mr Bakerson.” a fairly deep and quiet voice was heard behind him.

It took Fredric a couple of seconds to realize some one called upon him by his last name looked confused behind him. There was a formal looking man in a white and black suit with the stereotypical shady-shades. He could not help but be a little bit worried.

”You might wish to join me in the park outside for a chat” The man continued. A bit more hushed. “For the message I have is regarding an acquisition made a couple of months ago, I am told you know what.”

Fredric rolled his eyes mentally, of course some one would come along regarding that, just as he gotten aware of it a couple of hours ago.

“Why should I follow a stranger to a less public location?” Fredric almost hissed back, racking his mind on what he should do.

“If we wished to accost you, we would have along your route here. The message is intended for your ears only and we do not wish to make a scene. That is not why we were hired.” He concluded calmly, now looking forward as if Fredric was not there and went outside.

Fredric payed as his turn had come with the cashier and went outside trying while trying to keep his cool. What he said had truth to it, but he did not like it, he just wanted to go home, lock the door and try to solve this situation before it got out of hand.

But it seemed the world had no intention of letting it pass him easily.

He went out with his shopping bags towards the nearby park, it was not that well visited being a bit off any meaningful destination, but it was afternoon, joggers and dog owners was around for him to feel somewhat safe.

Fredric spotted the man by a bench, seemingly enjoying the sun as any suit clad man in shades would do in a park by a small local grocery store. He walked up and figured he make his discomfort known.

“Is this what you figure pass for inconspicuous?” Fredric said, squinting a bit as he stood in front of him.

The man smirked: “Sit”
