Adam might have just found out that I was lying but he still doesn't know why. Maybe I can still talk my way out of this. He said "I didn't know you cared so much about her. Usually you would do anything for this kind of info." He's really putting the pressure on me but I can't let him win. I can out wit him. "The thing is I don't really care about how she feels. The real reason is that she might lie to us. I mean we have no real way of proving if she's telling the truth or not, if we're on her good side maybe she just tell us anyway." I waited for a response from him. He thought for a while and said "Why do you think we have no way of testing the truth?" I really messed up now. It's fine though I can say something to get out of this.

Little Me opened the door and waved good morning to us. I'm just going to assume she heard nothing but still this puts me in a rough place with Adam. He probably suspects that I know something and we both agreed not to talk about this stuff when Little Me is around. I said hello back to Little Me and both of us pretended like our conversation never happened.

This is bad. I have an invisible time limit and Adam is on to me. It's fine. It's fine, I just need to remain calm. I have two objectives 1 think of what I'm going to say to Adam. One good thing about this scenario is that I have much more time to think about what I'm going to say to get myself out of this. The problem is objective 2: find some time alone with Adam. I can't think of any time we can be alone. His apartment is so small and Little Me follows us around everywhere. I don't think Adam's going to risk sending her off so I think we're stuck with this for now.

I can worry about objective 2 later right now the problem is what sort of lie do I tell him. Should I tell him that I decided to follow along with his idea and we can capture her. I'm usually way more stubborn when it comes to my ideas. Guess I'm committed to staying on Little Me's good side. So I guess now I have to make it look like a good idea or make capturing her look like a bad one. Why would capturing her be a bad idea? Maybe capture would lead to failure? That could work. I already got into a fight with her and she's way more athletic than me. I can't bring that up though if I'm trying to get on her good side telling Adam I tried to fight her might not be the best idea.

What are the benefits of her being on our good side? What are the cons of capturing her? I have to give my case of why befriending her is the best choice. I feel like a lawyer defending a clearly guilty client. Still I can win this, I have time. I spent the rest of the day planning and thinking about my case but I never got the chance to actually talk to him.

Before I knew it, 3 pm had hit and Adam was about to leave. I would prefer to not let Little Me home by herself but I need to fix my relationship with Adam. I ask to walk with him to the bus stop. I know it's suspicious to leave Little Me alone if I don't trust her but I need to explain myself.

We both walk out and he doesn't even hesitate to call out my recklessness.

"Why are you leaving Little Me home alone? I thought you didn't trust her."

"The truth is I don't but I want to prioritize our conversation." There was truth to that even if I did trust Adam there just too much I want to say to him right now.

"So what's so important that you left her behind." Looks like we are not on the same page. I thought he would understand why I prioritize him so much.

"I want you to realize that capturing Little Me isn't the right option."

"you seem to care about Little Me quite a bit."

"I told you I don't. I just think that too much could go wrong if you have been here for a month that is not nearly long enough to figure out everything they can have under there selves".

"So how long will be enough for you to take action?" I'm just about ready to give up. Everything I say just keeps making it worse and worse

"I don't know."

"Expected as much."

I honestly should have just kept my mouth shut every time I tried to speak to him, it only gets worse. I should have known I can't talk my way out of these things whether it be Little Me or Adam. What do I do now?

Right after he said that we reached the bus stopped. I just made things so much worse for myself. I don't think this relationship is fixable. I have to give up on tricking Adam. He's way too smart to not know that I'm at least questioning him. There's no point every conversation I have with him makes things worse. Should I run? Maybe but then I'm going to be even worse then when I started not to mention I have no clue where I would even run. Should I just kill them? That still leaves me with the exact same problem. Without them I have no knowledge of The Land of Time. I guess I really do have to capture them, both of them.

I can start with Little Me and then catch Adam by surprise by the time he gets home. That can work but I need more details. How exactly am I going to capture these two? Little Me should be easy when she enters her room. I can just block it with a chair problem solved. The issue is Adam. I don't know how good he is at fighting but I lost to a 8 year old. I don't think I can rely on raw strength.

I need some sort of plan of attack, maybe a weapon of some sort. I have the knife that Adam threatened me with that could work but I think Adam's on to me though it's not unlikely he shows up with some sort of weapon as well. This might as well be a death match, a knifes good and all but I need something to catch him off guard.

I look around the house seeing if anything would be useful. While looking around I found some scalpels Adam left behind perfect. I check if I could hide it under my selves without cutting myself. It's difficult but it does work and I can manage to hide them without injuring myself. Next I need to practice taking them out of my selves as fast as possible. It was almost like some sort of magic trick but in time I learned it. I was ready. I have a weapon and an ace up my sleeve. I don't know what Adam is planning but whatever it is I will be ready.
