We happened to seat in the car quietly, the tension in the air subsiding after Jerry decided to overlook the situation, not trying to stir up trouble in our midst, at least not in a critical moment like now or we will attract flies on our a**. We sat there for close to an hour, and now I realized why Jerry complained about sleeping, saying that I am going to get none as far as I am in for this mission. I'm beginning to get dizzy, forcing myself to stay awake, but the boring environment is not helping it, not when everyone was seating silent. “ You'll need this ”. I turned to see him offering me a cigarette, at least I've got reasons to smoke them now, if I am to stay awake, then I definitely need them. I placed it in between my lips and saw a smile crept in into his feature, he offered to light them up for me, offering me to bring my face closer, which I did. “ You definitely hate me Bruno, both later, you'll get to understand that I have to do all I have to do, and for the smokes, it means you should man up, because it's about time you do....”. Funny guy, trying to motivate me after being a pain in my a**, he turned to Freddy, offering him a stick too, which he accepted as he lit them up for him too. We sat there smoking in, when we saw a movement, something that definitely looks like what we all have been waiting for, this time I don't need to be told that this was it. “ Alright guys.... Time for everyone to sleep in, we move in the morning.....”. I felt a slap on my thighs, a slap that sounded quite hard, which definitely woke me up because it was painful. “ I told you that there's nothing like sleeping Bruno, even after giving you clues that I don't go back on my words, you still fall for my trick, impressive....”. I was now looking at him, the smell of cigarettes still hovering in the car despite the windows left open, I tried to stretch my back and noticed that Freddy looks to be in deep sleep, what's Jerry even talking about?, Thought he said no one is getting any sleep, but Freddy here is. I wanted to force myself to reach to the back and wake him up. “ No need for that Bruno.... He won't be going in with us, we should leave the car and change in into our outfits.....”. “ Why aren't we changing in here?”. “ The smell of the cigarette is the answer you need, you don't want to go in there smelling like a piece of sh*t......”. He pulled a bag and opened the door as he walked out of the car, I took one last glance at Freddy, wondering why he's not coming with us, but I have to follow up with Jerry immediately because he has already left the car. “ Did he say his reasons?.... I mean, why he wouldn't be coming with us?”, I asked Jerry. He just looked at me, stared back at the car, then at me, “ I thought you knew too, if I was you..... I can tell, especially when he gave you the clue that you should ask that question, you've got to start thinking out of the box Bruno, they'll save you one day....”. I didn't get or understand what he's talking about, more like he was speaking gibberish, but I followed him anyways, walking towards the half line of a building, he got the bag down and started undressing, so as to change in into the wrapped new clothings. His gun was on top of the bag, fear gripped me when I got the idea that this is an opportunity for me to strike him, maybe all I fear is nothing, shooting him will end it all, the police can help me find my mom and with the money I've already got, I can travel away, find something doing and still always look after Mom, without thinking more of the idea, I pretended to bend down and grab the piece of clothing, instead I went for the gun, grabbed it and pointed straight at him. “ At last I got you in a spot where you can't escape, the gun is in my hand and I have all reason to shoot you down now.....”. I threatened him, enjoying the fact that my patience has gotten me to this moment, and I won't be letting them slip by, not again. “ I'm definitely impressed that you're taking this step boy, but I still stand by what I said, you have to always think out of the box, it will save your life one day....”. Why is he even still talking back?, He looks way too comfortable for a person who's facing a gun, just the way he was staring at death inside that room in the afternoon, this is the second time he's facing death today and he wasn't showing any sign of fear or anything, giving me doubts that this gun is even loaded, maybe that's what he wants, making me think that way. “ For Christ sake, stop with all this mind games Jerry, if you think I don't know the gun is loaded, I know.... Men like you doesn't walk with unloaded gun ”. Instead of getting scared, he began to laugh, fixing the coat he was putting on, showing no single sign of being bothered with my threats. “ Unloaded gun?, Is that all you can think of?..... I never said that the gun in your hand wasn't loaded Bruno, it's a f**king full pack.... What I'm trying to let you know is to always think outside the box, or else, instead of getting someone killed, you're gonna get yourself killed.....”.
