His Mission
I can only see his chest, covered with black clothing to protect his identity.
Moments pass and I notice his chest rising heavily up and down. Is this the moment he kills me?
I shut my eyes and think of everything that brings happiness to my life.
Jake, Ivory, Trish, Tobias, The Big Bang Theory, cheese pizza, Nutella...
"Open your eyes."
I obey his order, opening my eyes slowly and lifting my head. I expect to find myself staring down the barrel of a gun but what I do find myself looking at is something I never expected.
