The shrill sound of an alarm blared in the bar.
Everyone in the bar looked at each other in confusion and surprise until someone shouted, “The policeare coming!”
The whole bar was thrown into chaos. Some people were so shocked they could only look around,aghast, uncertain of what to do. But a few others, who were guilty of one thing or the other, took to theirheels immediately.
Before anyone else could leave, two police officers rushed in through the main entrance. The leadingpolice officer said sternly, “Everyone, please be quiet. We have received a report that someone in thebar is using illegal drugs. Now please cooperate with us in handling this case. We won’t take too muchof your time, but we will arrest anyone who doesn’t cooperate with us for obstruction of justice.”
Many of the guests in the bar calmed down and cooperated with the police and answered all thequestions they were asked promptly.
Like most of the guests in the bar, Bettie was surprised at the turn of events.
“Is there anyone here taking drugs? What a mess! Lance, what kind of place did you bring me to?”
Lance gaped at her, stunned by the accusation.
“How could I have known…”

“Shut up!”
Lance pursed his lips and said nothing.
Bettie glanced at Sabrina and asked in a low voice, “Whoever gave the police the tip must have alsodescribed what the person using the drugs looked like, right?”
Sabrina propped her elbows on the table and rubbed her temples slowly.novelbin
She didn’t make any attempt to answer.
It was Lance who finally replied in an equally low voice.
“Yes, they should have. But the police can’t rule out the possibility that whomever they are looking for isnot alone. They could have gathered here to take drugs together, so they have to look into it.”
Gathering to take drugs? AIDS?
Bettie trembled with disgust and rolled her eyes at him.
“I didn’t ask you.”
“You can turn a deaf ear to my words,” Lance retorted.
Bettie curled her lips. But instead of exchanging any further words with him, she turned to look atSabrina. Her brows furrowed as she took in Sabrina’s face.
“Sabrina, why do you look so pale? Do you feel uncomfortable?”
“I feel a little dizzy.” Sabrina rubbed her chest and said, “My heart is beating fast. Maybe it’s becauseI’ve been very busy and haven’t had a good rest.”
“Alas!” Bettie sighed.
