I shouldn't look behind. I proceeded forward as though I needed be attentive in the convocation.

'Member, I'm in hope of you not having let the cat out of the bag. Should you let the cat out of the bag to a Judas, you would have to face indescribable wrath by the unknown', it said

Cat out of the bag? I hadn't met with a member for a tȇte-à-tȇte since I got out of that domicile of ugly act. Well, it- Oh, it must be voluble19. I turned around and without flabbergast, met with voluble19. Horrible timing it was. What in Jupiter's name did it seek? My trailers were nigh. I mustn't allow them discover us together. This tȇte-à-tȇte mustn't take place between us this instant. I looked at volube19 laconically and proceeded far away from it in haste. It persisted and followed me hither

'State to me, without preposterousness, the genuine reason for having a tȇte-à-tȇte with you this instant', I said with every word uttered quoted with chagrin

'I beg your pardon', it looked somewhat flummoxed

'I haven't the habit of repeating myself', I vociferated

'Member, I sincerely have no wish to make you incensed. I did believe we were acquaintances. I shall stay if you wish. If otherwise, I shall never say a word to you again', it stated with heartsick

'Member 219, I do not intend to be disdainful. Truly, he who throws away a friend is as bad as who throws away his own life. Natheless, at this moment in time, I can't foregān it. I'm afraid, the latter of your proposal', then, I walked away ado with displeasure. I halted and looked around but perceived no member around. I must have proceeded furtherer than I intended. I gained solitude with my thoughts and suffered from overwhelming distress for I never considered 219 an acquaintance to me until the very last moment. I proceeded to my abode

In my abode, at the crack of dawn, I was overwhelmed by the visit of my boon companion.

'You refused to proceed to my abode the day before today', it waited for an excuse

By Jupiter, its voice sounded exactly like- Nay, I must not think thus. I should not reckon so

'My companion, why wouldn't you speak with me?'

I jolted out of my reverie and replied, 'my apologies. I was drowned in my thoughts'

'Tuppence for your thought?'

'I couldn't proceed to your abode as I was caught up in a convocation while I was on my way', I lied

'But that convocation occurred late in the day. I reckoned you would proceed to mine early in the day', it vociferated

'I'm afraid I couldn't', I apologized

'Very well'

'My companion, were you, mayhap, in your abode throughout the day before today?', I asked

'Aye, you're right there'

'May I ask of the type of building your abode is?', I looked at it sternly

'May I know the reason for asking these questions out of the blue? Provable you have proceeded to my abode countless times', it stated

'You are right. Pardon my overwhelming curiosity, my companion'

'Peradventure, is there anything you need state to me?'

219 had said to me, 'do well to not let the cat out of the bag'. However, this is my boon companion. The member I shared my secrets with and vice versa. Should I now betray it by keeping this from it? Moreover, its abode seemed somewhat different from what I had gotten used to. Its abode does have an underground. Truly, it was making thus on the QT for it made me completely unaware of it. There were some hidden agenda in the aforementioned underground. I did have a disposition of not spilling the beans now

'I can tell there is something bothering you. You have been drifting away to your thoughts since I arrived', it stated

'I assure you it's nothing. I'm only feeling unwell', I lied

'I shall proceed to my abode if you wish. I reckon you need rest. Withal, I have some works to attend to in my abode. Adieu', it said and disappeared

I could tell 419 was ensuring my unawareness of its business. I trusted it with my secrets but that wasn't mutual, after all. Should I inform it on the underground I discovered ? Nay, I should allow it to inform me itself on it. I was quite sure it was aware of the underground. Why wasn't it telling anyway? I thought we trusted each other. It must be aware of the ugly act going on in the underground. Oh, I should have thought thus. It must be that the Lord of the underground was threatening my companion not to let the cat out. That's certainly what it was. I should have known. This is a deadly situation for 419.

Ergo, I must forget not Voluble19. I should pay it a visit. I should beseech it. Thence, I proceeded to the outside to let my head loose in the breeze. Forthwith, I proceeded farther from my abode without minding it. I met a group of members having a rendezvous. As I approached hither, I espied 219

'Member 219, allow me to express my delight to set my eyes on you anew', I proceeded towards it

It looked at me and turned back to its acquaintances.

'I'm afraid but if you'll excuse me, I'd like to have a short-term conversation with 219', I turned to its acquaintances and they nodded in affirmative

'Please, follow me hither', I stated to Voluble19

'My acquaintances, I apologize. I shall proceed now', Voluble19 said

Hitherto, I didn't realize I was proceeding hither alone. I looked behind and realized Voluble19 had apologized to its acquaintances for it was proceeding somewhere else. I returned to my abode for the rest of the day.
