I turned the computer off. There's no point in watching now,I thought. He knows what he's doing. Just leave him alone. Just please come back Kirill.

About twenty minutes later the door swung open.
"We need to leave,"he said. "It's been taken care of."
"Where are you going?"
"I need to go back to Moscow. I want you to go home."
"What? You aren't coming?"
"I'm already late. You need to go home."
I sighed. "Ok."
He stopped and looked at me. "Are you all right?"
I sat on the bed. "Yeah. I'm fine."
He put his arm around my shoulder. "Everything's going to be fine now. But…"he went silent.
"What? What is it?"
"I haven't been quite honest."
"What are you talking about?"
"I did something in Berlin. You can't tell anyone."
"What did you do?"
"I killed two people."
"Is….is that the reason…?"
"Yeah,"he said faintly.
"I…I don't understand."
"I'll tell you later. I need to get you home."
"No. You need to tell me now. Tell me what the hell you did in Berlin and why you killed those people."
"You wouldn't understand."
"Yes I would."
"You remember Neski?"
"Oh god…The files…That's why you killed those people? That's why you're after Jason?"
"Yeah."
"Holy crap."
"You have to swear not to tell anyone or I'm seriously gonna kill you."
"But why the files?"
"He needed something. Look,we need to leave now."
I sighed. "All right. I promise not to tell anyone."
"All right. Let's go."
