Todd waited in front of the orphanage. He was waiting for Mr. Cypher. He had made a lot of findings about his schedules before making the decision of meeting him here. The children's home would be the best place to seek hisopponent. Definitely, he would be dying to find a way around that.
Lately,all his efforts have been proving abortive. Todd felt he could use him. Talking someone like that into funding him would be very easy, a piece of cake.Before Todd would have started doubting if Mr. Cypher would show up. His convoy of cars arrived. Todd checked his wristwatch. Mr. Cypher was a bit late.Todd moved closer to the car. He could not get much closer to his car as he wanted due to the heavy security details that were all over the place. He stood aloof. He would just need to be patience.Mr. Cypher's voice was audible as one of the security officers opened his car door. He was reprimanding his aide loudly.“I have spent much than for this not to work“What if the client get a death sentence?” Raymond asked Stan at work. After they left the bar where they met the jail breaker the other day, lots of questions had been popping in his head. He just want everything answered. If he was pleased, he might consider the offer.Stan didn’t say anything. He quirked a smile. He looked away like he didn’t hear the question, but it was obvious he heard him“There’s no answer for that” Raymond said sadly in disappointment. He needed an answer badly and fast because there were more questions to come. A lot of questions in stock for when he would be at work. Now at work, the man he hoped would provide him with answer seemed not ready to answer his questions. He was downcast.“I thought you were not interested. The way you kept acting reluctantly and unconcerned yesterday. I don’t expect you to come asking questions today” Stan replied him. That didn’t sound like the
Raymond was nervous as he sat on the comfortable couch in Mayor Mount living room. Grace cringed at his sidebe Mayor Mount's personal assistant.What Raymond found hard to understand was how his girlfriend felt about everything that was happening. He couldn’t tell if she was happy or not.Brittany came to join them. She asked some of their countless maids that seemed to be in every corner of the house to bring them juice.The juice was good for a juice and very chilled. It was those kind of juice you could use to express your love to your spouse. The expression would be reciprocated and likely turn out to be an unforgettable experience.Raymond and Grace kept exchanging glances as they drank. Raymond knew she definitely want to be touched in a way that could lead to an intense make-out.That couldn’t be done here, she should understand. They would save it till when they were back at home.Brittany broke the silence immediately as
Grace had woken up very early. She was enthusiastic. She had called Brittany and gave her words. She would do it. She claimed it wasn't for the money but she felt connected to Tracy who seemed helpless to her. Anyway, she would take the money because there was no one who wouldn't take it.Raymond watched her as she prepared with zeal. It seemed he couldn't understand how Grace became so serious and felt she needed to be dutiful to the mayor's family, some people she just met not long ago.Grace dressed very formally, she should. She would be in the midst of students and teachers. She thought how awkward it would be today. It would be like babysitting shy Tracy. Tracy did not seem like a kind of girl who had a lot of friends.Finally she was ready to leave. Reyes would come to pick her. Brittany had promised."Going back to middle school?" Raymond spilled seeing her ready. He must have found it hard to take in."Not as a student, t
Three weeks later, Todd and Mr Cypher's aide, Karl, sat in a van parked right in front of Newland elite group of schools. A girl who was a student of the school was with them.She laid on her back. Todd filled a syringe with some solution. He gauged it and injected the girl. He took another syringe filled it and injected her again."What is your name?" Todd asked the girl slowly.The girl's eyes glowed like she was in rage. She groaned painfully."Mint" she responded without blinking her glowing eyes."Mint, you will go to this class and hug the teacher in front of that class" Todd handed a piece of paper to the girl. "Right now" he added.Todd opened the door of the van. The girl got down and walked hurriedly into the school." So,what's all this" Karl who had just been watching broke the silence. Todd ignored him and arranged the area where the girl had left."I thought you ears were working when Mr. Cypher said I
Raymond had gotten home a while ago. He expected to meet Grace at home but she wasn't. He waited with the hope that she would arrive soon.It had almost been an hour and she was still to come. Raymond became worried. He made a call to her cell phone. It rang for some time and went to a voicemail."Hi, this is Grace, you wanna talk to me. And you are not Ray, say whatever you have to say after the beep, but if this is Ray. Don't say anything. That is a warning" Grace's voice narrated on the phone speaker. A beep followed.Raymond smiled. He dropped the call. He waited again to no avail. Grace used to always have his phone on her. Something must have happened.He made a call to Brittany. It also went to her voicemail."Is Grace with you, I have called but I couldn't get through. I am very worried, please" Raymond talked to the voicemail.He was really missing Grace but whatever it was that had happened, he believed he had to remain calm.
Todd came into one of the the living room in Mr. Cypher's mansion. Mr. Cypher was already waiting for him. He welcomed him with a smile.Todd was surprised to see him that way. Mr. Cypher seldom smile. This seemed to be the first time Todd would see him like this. Todd walked towards him.He had called Todd earlier to visit him. Todd was a little bit afraid at that time. But the way he looked right now. Everything would be good"Would you believe I was waiting for the time I will have an opportunity to put bullet in your brain?" Mr. Cypher poured a glass of wine and handed it over to Todd.Todd took it from him. He hesitated to drink. He was shocked by Mr. Cypher's statement.Mr. Cypher poured another glass for himself. He was about drinking when he suddenly stopped. He started at Todd. It seemed he just noticed Todd had frozen."Don't you know how to celebrate a win?" he smirked at him. He must have known the reason behind
Raymond sat happily as he waited for Mayor Mount. He was damn sure he would want to hear his news. It was good news, filled with hopes. He had discovered something great.Raymond did not sleep throughout the night. He made sure he reached a conclusion.He remained seated waiting for when it would be his turn to see the Mayor. This was the first time he would visit him in his office.Everyone he had come across in the building looked at him in a strange way. A way that was shouting 'you will never get to see the mayor'. Maybe that was due to his face that wasn't familiar to them or because he looked like a lowlife which he was.Raymond believed he would see him. They were like family friends. The inky reason he wouldn't get to see him was if Mayor Mount was not aware of his visit.To avoid that, he had called him beforehand. Despite that, he described himself in details to Mayor Mount's secretary. The description which the Mayor would re
Raymond looked closely at the content in the cup. It was just like blood pudding. That was the cure he had prepared. Just to get a point of it into the bloodstream of the infected.He believed it would work. It had to. But now that no one was supporting him, just to check its efficiency, at least, was daunting and discouraging.He hadn't known how he was going to administer it to them. Maybe he would rub it on their bite marks. That would be dangerous and hectic at the same time. He needed help, he couldn't do it alone.It was obvious the council members were not ready to go for the option of finding the cure. They just wanted them eliminated. They were just being selfish and heartless.Raymond was frustrated. He knew he needed to find a way of administering this cure if he really wanted to see Grace again.There was no way he could get into the school. Going into the school wasn't an option. Going in there without proper protective gears wou
