Jared Takes Control

Britney followed Jared into the back room. When she made it to the doorway, she saw Jared holding the manager at gunpoint. Jared immediately noticed Britney standing at the doorway.
“Brit get on the phone and make sure he didn’t really call 911” Jared instructed swiftly.
Britney grabbed the reciever and listened for a voice on the other side. “Hello..” She spoke shakily into the phone.”
“911- is this an emergency?” Was the voice on the other end. “No, I am sorry, there must have been a mistake ” Britney pleaded with the dispatcher. Britney hung up the phone.

“Alright pal, give me the money and nobody gets hurt” Jared ordered to the manager.
The manager complied to Jared’s demmands. He moved in slow and steady movments. Once Jared saw he was following orders, he pulled back the gun. Confident he had full control of the situation. The manager put the cash on the desk, where Britney quickly put in a canvas bag.
“Now go the the security cameras, and delete all footage!” Jared instructed.
