Am I screwed?

Currently an SA looking to lateral for FT. Emailed an alum at a bank I'm interested in and after realized he's in the same coverage group I'm interning in. The alum's bank is co-lead on one of the deals I'm working on. Not sure how to handle this situation advice would be greatly appreciated. Also the banker replied so not sure how to navigate the call either

Edit: finding out about returns end of the week
