Jeremy entered the building and walked straight to the training room. He found Veronica, talking with someone on the phone.
“Jack, you’re going to be so proud of me” she said with a slightly trembling voice. “I promise that when you get here there will only be humans left”
Jack said something in return.
“Of course I’m careful. I’m not going to fall for anyone. They took away the only person I ever cared about and they will pay for it. And anyone who’s trying to stop me, will go down with them…I have to hang. I will see you real soon”
She hung up, turned around and gasped, almost dropping her phone.
“What are you doing here? I wasn’t expecting anyone” she faltered. Jeremy had caught her off guard and she hoped he hadn’t heard too much.
“You’re the one who said we’re training all dia long” Jeremy pointed out.
“Yeah, well” Veronica panted. “I suddenly figured that you all have jobs and…and school, you know?”
“School’s over now” Jeremy reminded her.
“It is?” Veronica asked confused.
“I was sort of hoping I could stay here and practice a bit” Jeremy said slowly. “My sister Elena is having chemo. It’s a really difficult time right now”
“I imagine” Veronica replied and Jeremy detected a whiff of compassion. “Okay, you can stay here. I’ll go home”
Jeremy waited until he heard the door close.
“Jenna, can you hear me?” he called.
“Loud and clear, captain J” Jenna joked and she appeared seguinte to him. She was holding a collection of letters, tied together with a piece of rope. “I’ve done some reading” she said, pleased with herself and waved the collection. She handed it to Jeremy, who put it in his inside pocket.
“Who’s Jack?” Jeremy asked curious.
“Ahh, Jack” Jenna commented. “Good old Jack…Honestly, I have no idea, but she calls him every dia and then tells him how it’s going. I’m starting to think he’s her boss or something”
Jeremy shook his head. “Veronica doesn’t have a boss. She acts on her own” he replied convinced.
Veronica opened the door of the building again. She realized she’d forgotten her letters. She wasn’t going anywhere without them. She walked towards her private room when she heard Jeremy talking. At first she thought he was on the phone with someone, but when she heard her own name, she became curious and came closer. Close enough to see he wasn’t on the phone.
So, he was either talking to himself…or to a ghost. Veronica was so furious she forgot about her letters, she headed straight back outside and slammed the door.
“What was that?” Jeremy startled. He looked concerned at Jenna. “Do you think…?”
“I think so, yes” Jenna nodded dark.

“I think so, yes” Jenna nodded dark.
“Can I come in? This talks so…weird, you know. And if Veronica sees us…” Stefan said warning.
“I’m not afraid of Veronica” Rachel said in such way it sounded like she meant the opposite.
Katherine was dragging Gabe’s corpse to the backside of Rachel’s house. She couldn’t get inside the house, so she opened the window to the basement and pushed Gabe’s body inside. She held his shoulders and let him down carefully. When she thought it was seguro she let go. The corpse fell on the basement floor, mute for a human ear, but as Katherine heard the thump, she figured Rachel would’ve too.
“Damn it” she mouthed. She stood and looked around. Rachel was nowhere to be seen and from what Katherine could hear, she was still listening philosophized to Stefan. If Rachel had heard anything, she sure didn’t suspect anything.
