This is how their conversation went..

“So, how are things going for you, like, emotionally?” Asked Darren.

“Well, if only the voices in my head would stop and that they would untie me, things would be fine. but you know, those demanding types.” Erin responded without hesitation. She’d been thinking about that encounter she just had with those… people, if you could call them that.

“Wow, and here I thought it was only me with people crawling in my skin.” Darren chuckled unsurely.

“Nope, me too. I swear its a conspiracy.” Erin response had a serious tone despite her laughter accompaniment.

“It’s an evil set up from ‘them’.” Darren had the same anxious urgency as his friend.

“It is,” Erin concluded, quite interested that her friend felt the same, “We must find a way to stop them.”

Over tea and biscuits the two friends devised their plan in hushed tones.
