Chapter 10: Options.

Jerry made me enter the car on his own will, saying that whether I like it or not, I am going in. I don't know his reasons for saying that, but I decided to go in, knowing that I already owe him too much to act reluctant towards whatever his offer was. I really don't know what he's doing, but this act will make the guys to start asking questions, I have no reason to be served by him, not after what I did to ruin their year long plans.
“ Take this, you will need it....”, he handed a gun over to me. I was shocked seeing him make me such offer, by the way things feel right now, I don't think I have any option, don't he think that I might possibly shoot him with this.
“ What if I shoot you with it?.....”, I asked him, still not accepting the gun, his hand was on the staring while he was offering me the gun with the free hand. “ At least you've got to try.....”, he said laughing, acting like he didn't even care. 
I have handled gun before, I have been thought how to operate it and he doesn't really know what's he's getting himself into. I took the gun, wondering why he even gave it to me, maybe it's empty, theirs possibly no bullet inside it. I opened it, it's fully loaded, I looked at Jerry who doesn't really seem to care about the kind of risk he's getting himself into.
“ Did you think I wouldn't shoot you right now and run away?....”, I threatened him, pointing the gun to his head, looking intensely to see whether he will bulge towards the threat, but nothing, he was just smiling and driving like all I was doing was nothing. He placed his hand inside his pocket, driving me to point the mouth of my gun to his head with force.
“ Get your hand out of your pocket!....”. He wasn't listening to me, he just did what he wanted, bringing out a device and dropping it in front of the car whilst still driving cautiously, I was getting some goosebumps, what if I push to hard and we get into an accident?, I don't want to die, but if I am gonna be taking Jerry with me, then that's not an issue.
“ Look at the stopwatch, three minutes remaining, you either continue with your jokes or we proceed to the main matter....”, he said, as he started getting ready to park the car at a spot. 
“ What's the stopwatch for?....”. I asked him, the gun still pointed on his head, threatening to shoot him. “ If you wanted me dead, you should have taken the shot, but from the way you're still procrastinating, that shows you're confused.... Here's the truth, listen to your heart ”, “ My heart tells me to f**king shoot you, ( he parked the car), should I still listen to it?.....”, I asked him. 
“ If it has the power to save your Mom, then you should....”. He said, rolling down the glass window, then brought out his cigarette, and went fetching for his lighter. What does he mean by that?, I don't understand what he just said, what does my mom have to do with this?.
“ Two minutes!.....”, he said, smoking in his cigarette, closing his eyes and resting his head on the top of the seat. “ What the f**k is this time for?!....”. I pressed, tilting his head by the side with the mouth of the gun. “ It's your mother's Life.....”. The gun fell from my hand as shock gripped me, I was staring at the monster before me.
“ It's a lie!....You don't know where my mom is, You are just playing tricks on me because you saw me mentioning her last night....”, tears began to run down my cheeks as he began smiling, he didn't went for the gun, just left it down there, waiting for me to pick it back up.
“ You see, I'm a cool guy who doesn't like it when people get in my way, that's the reason I don't get in people's way, knowing I won't like it when they're on mine..... Freddy is with your mom right now, Yes.... You heard me right, you see ( he smoked in the cigarette), Freddy have been also working at the mental care center, we're planning on a raid there too, very soon actually, so.... Freddy you see have known you for some years now, you were never a person of interest until now, your presence seems like the completion of what we need in that mission, you have been going there far longer than Freddy, you're quite known there already, making it a huge advantage to our plan in the future..... I guess you see how important you're too us, I believe you know the reason you're not dead yet ”, he smiled.
The time is now remaining a minute, I picked the gun, knowing there's no more time to waste, details later, but for now, my mum's safety first. “ What do I have to do?....”, “ Now my boy is talking....”, he grinned so wide that his cheeks might even hurt.
“ Here are two options, we go eliminate the man the gang is after, which you'll do us the honor?...or we go and rob the bank getting the huge amount of money you made us lose yesterday..... By the look of it, you have just 30 seconds to decide, if I was you, I would be fast at whatever I do now, but no..... I will never be you, never ”.
Oh my God, what have I really gotten myself into?, there are two options, either one I choose, I am in danger.
