 A:    Veronica! Veronica! Veronica! Are you OK?


 B:    Steven!  What’s going on!  Who were those guys?

       I didn’t know you have a gun! What’s going on!


 A:    I will come clean as soon as we get to safety, OK?

       For now, you have to trust me, please! I  would

       never do anything to hurt you.


 B:    Steven, I...


 A:    Okay, run!  I haven’t been completely honest with

       you  Veronica,  I’m  sorry. I’m not a fireman. I’m

       not even from the United States. I’m a spy for the

       Indian government.


 B:    What? Why didn’t you tell me before? What are

       you doing here?

 A:    When I was a young boy, I used to play cricket 1

       my father back in my hometown of Hyderabad.

       It was a peaceful town, and my father was a

       renowned 2 chemist. One day, he was approached

       by members of the CIA,  claiming that my father

       had made the discovery of the millennium 3 in his

       small lab back at the university where he taught

       bio-chemistry.  I never saw him again.  I vowed 4 to

       discover the whereabouts of my father and con-

       sequently joined the Indian Intelligence Bureau.


 B:    What does that have to do with those men shoot-

       ing at us? Most importantly, why did you lie to me!


 A:    I’m sorry, I wasn’t supposed to meet you. I wasn’t

       supposed to fall in love with you, but you have to

       believe me when I tell you that what I feel for you

       is real.


 B:    I can’t believe this!  Why are all these things hap-

       pening to me!  I can’t take it anymore!  Let me out

       of the car!

 A:    Veronica, wait!
