Steve_Jobs
Police Officer
Update, you people scare the .... out of me with the pitchforks!
I'm not really a fan of him yet, but I got the text to this song from a friend and I thought it went well with the chapter...
Next Chapter,
Grissom carried just two bags. He handed them to the driver, showed his ticket, and got on. This was going to be a long trip, thank god the Greyhound was equipped with air-conditioning, it was in the middle of the summer and extremely hot.
The bus started to move and Gilbert leaned back, he made the right decision. Who could call a house home if people lived there who forced him to not be who he was. He knew he was a sciencegeek, but he didn’t care, he didn’t want to drink, smoke, take pills, sniff coke and have sex with everyone around. Grissom wanted to read and study, he wanted to be left alone by the world and be surrounded by people like him. This was difficult, since he never met people who were like him…
Before he left, he went to the bookstore and bought a couple of books for the trip, a couple by Dan Brown, a few Parkers and a book by Max Allan Collins, Sin City.
While the hours, miles and pages passed, the sun went under…
As they entered the elevator to go down, Greg started speaking
“Tracy, I know I’m not supposed to tell you this, but I will if you keep quiet about it.”
“Greg, I don’t have any friends left except for you and Sara… If you mean I shouldn’t talk to Susan, don’t worry, if Susan spots me, I’ll be dead before I can even start to talk…”
“Ok, I know Sara will do the same if she knows I told you, but I’ll give you a short version.”
“I understand”
“Sara, doesn’t have an easy life, she has a lot of problems at home, and at school, caused by Susan and other people…”
“Where is this going to?”
“Tracy, she couldn’t take the pain any longer, she tried to kill herself…”
“oh my god, I’m so sorry, I never knew..”
“And you shouldn’t know. I just tell you because I’m afraid she might try again and I want you to watch her...”
“I understand, I won’t talk about this to anyone.”
Just after she said that, the doors opened and they got out, when they reached the doors of the hospital, they both went separate ways. Tracy went to the bank go collect the cash and Greg grabbed a cab to go to the bad neighborhood to go and get the id papers.
<one hour later>
“Here it is…” Greg said as he knocked on the door, it was true, this was the bad neighborhood, he had seen many, many dealers on his way over, he however had to walk the last part, the cab driver didn’t want to take him any further….
“Who?”
“A customer”
“Come in!”
The man opened the door and let Greg enter, the man looked him over and spoke: “Aren’t you a little young for this shit? Shouldn’t you be out scoring some dope?”
“I’m not the kind of person who uses drugs…”
“hehe, actually one of these kids is smart! What do you need?”
“A complete ID for three people, passport, drivers license, certificates, degrees, you name it”
“hehe, sir knows what he wants, it’s 150 per person…”
“I give you 500 if you do them while I wait…”
“Deal! Gimme three hours…”
Tracy got the money with great ease, she had the right papers and her smile…
Now, the hard part came. Where to find a van for seven thousand which is reliable and large enough for three people to sleep in?
She walked in a phone booth and started making calls, after the third, she had what she wanted. A red, reliable van and the dealership was just five blocks away…
“This one”
“Whoa, young lady, don’t you want to make a test-drive?”
“No, look, the van is seven thousand. If I negotiate the right way, I’ll get it for six with ease.”
“Well…”
“I give you seven thousand right now, and I drive away in this one, ok?”
“Deal.”
Without even entering the dealership, Tracy gave the man the stack of cash, jerked the keys and papers from his hands, climbed in and sped off.
“That was easy!”
