Bad Target

You know too well that thieves never go to sleep, so the same thing happens with Daniel, at 22: 00 he was still up and staring at the sky through his window and he saw something that caught his attention .Tamia the girl from his new neighbor was walking by probably coming from school because she had a laptop bag.

By the cars the father drives Daniel had no doubt that Tamia’s parents have a fortune. He looked at her ring the doorbell and the gate opens and of course she disappeared in that big mansion.

“You can afford another one little Tamia, am sure about that” Daniel said as he move back to get a cigarette from his drawers. “Fuck it, there’s no lighter” he said again as he put the cigarette back in the drawers and leaned in his bad. The next he felt asleep.

In the morning when he woke up he thought of something still about Tamia’s laptop bag. “They sell airtime” he thought as he get up and look in his wallet to see if there was a ten dollar or some coins. “Damn it” of course there was nothing so he moved fast to his sister’s room but it was the same, no ten or some coins.

His parents traveled and their room was not locked, he knew where the safe was. He took out a hundred.
He looked at it “you are of big help, I promise to pay you back before they notice” he said making his way to the door and closed it just as he found it and heading to the neighbours to buy tango.

He rang the doorbell and it was Tamia that came out to help him, exactly what he wanted. With a hundred in his hand he asked for 20 dollars tango. Tamia came out with just that and gave it to him. Daniel glanced at the latest iPhone in Tamia‘s hand.

“Are you not going to school” he asked.
“I have part time classes I only go after hours and come back at 22:00, but why do you ask?” she replied. “Nothing is just that you are new in this neighborhood and I don’t see you going to school but now I understand because I also have a part-time job.
" Ooh thanks anyways, for airtime” he said faking a smile and went back in his house.

It has been a long day for him because he has been staring in the window just to see if Tamia will still go out with his Laptop bag. At four in the afternoon he saw her and yes with the laptop bag. “Hope it is my lucky day, sorry neighbor but you are my target” he said looking in his contacts and dialed two of his guys to do the job. He told them the description of the girl as well as when and where to get her and the guys were on it because they don’t like to disobey their boss.

Billy and Babylon were to take care of Tamia at 22: 00.

Daniel gave them a gun and a knife to stay at the riverbed where Tamia is dropped after school.
When they saw the girl with the description their boss gave them they hurried toward her as soon as her cab left. Without realizing that her apple laptop was gone she saw her bag handle drop down from her shoulder and turned back to a gun in her forehead in big hands of a tall guy.
“Give me the phone” the guy said.
“No way man it’s my…” she did not finish because the trigger was pulled through her fore head and she was all covered in blood.

When the police came Tamia was already a corpse. The police caught the two guys(Billy and Babylon) and they said everything including their boss Daniel and the things they did in the past with him.
what idiots.

Daniel was waiting to hear from them until he fell asleep.
In the morning he woke up by loud bangs on his door. Thought it was his boys, he opened the door just to bump in police officers.
"Daniel?" asked one officer
"Yes, May i help ?" Daniel asked
"Am afraid you are coming with us, you are needed at the police quarters'
And they drove away in the police truck

You don’t want to know the look in his face when he saw his two men when he got at the police station. sure they turned him in. who wouldn't?
He got Sixteen years in jail after his trial.
Seating in his jail cell he said to himself
“Never trust anyone, your best friend is definitely the one who will drag you to hell, I guess you were a bad target Tamia”.
