The walls in his home were littered with post-its - messages from Lucas to Lucas. Some days there were none, other days Lucas woke up to a dozen of them on the bathroom mirror, the fridge, the door, the coffee table; in blue and yellow, sometimes pink when it was 'urgent', depending on what was available. For a very rudimentary communication system, it wasn't half-bad.
Today, there were nearly twenty pink post-its stuck all over the place.
APPOINTMENT WITH M. BRITTEN, PI, SANTA ANA; 4.30PM!
Lucas didn't really have time for this. The new job demanded a huge chunk of his time and attention and he had barely time to eat. And yet, here he was, in Mister Britten's office on business that was personal even though it wasn't really his.
He'd only met Brandon Sullivan once and the Irishman seemed like a decent man if a little bit paranoid and nervous. Then again, who could blame him? The Lucas North he shared a past with was kind of like the monsters mothers warned their children of. He'd tried to convince the thug to let it go but it was hard to argue over colourful little paper squares.
"Mister Britten, thank you for seeing me." Firm handshake, a reserved yet friendly smile - the image of a proper businessman from abroad.
