His amber eyes darted back to the streets, keeping watch over the bookstore across.

The door swung open for the thirty-eight time since he arrived. Three figures walked out, but his eyes zeroed in on a particular lean figure in beige pants and an oversized coat. Her hair was looser tonight, and a bag was slung over her right shoulder.

“I’ve found what I’m looking for.” And he tossed a hundred-dollar bill on the table for a tip just before exiting the bar.

He had ten more seconds until the light changed.
