Thomas heard how the person in the room said 'regular'. He clearly didn't like them. This must mean that he was a gifted, and that he liked other gifted, or, at least, didn't dislike them as much as he disliked regulars. Thomas didn't know what power this person had, they could be dangerous if he didn't oblige to their request.

[color=007236]"Hey, I'm-I'm sorry,"[/color] Thomas said, coming out of his cover with his hands up, [color=007236]"Didn't know anybody was here. Oh, sorry,"[/color] he apologised to the person, moving his sunglasses down so that you could see that his eyes were different colours, [color=007236]"I didn't know that anybody was here."[/color]

Thomas hoped that this person wasn't a gifted that wanted to hurt him, as he wouldn't be able to use his gift anymore.
