Part 74

Part 74

During this week we trained our bodies to accept four hours of sleep a day. We know it's not healthly, but dying of a bullet to your head while you're sleeping isn't either so, we weighed our pros and cons, and would rather put up a fight. Each day after the first week was a breeze, we pushed our bodies to the element everyday as if we were on the run already. There wasn't one time that I thought about making love to my man but I also knew that being selfish and not making sure he's please can cause problems between us. The night before the big meeting with the old guy I set out time to pamper Eric and give him the best ride of his life, no pun intended.

Before we knew it, it was noon and the meeting was in an hour. I showered and got ready while Eric kept an eye out for anything out of the ordinary. As soon as I exited the bedroom Eric yells out,

"There's action on the southwest corner. A all black SUV has been coming right for us, with government tags. They're about two minutes before they're at the front door."

We gathered everything we needed and took our places. There was a knock at the door and my heart started racing out of control, there was nothing I could think about to settle my racing thoughts. Eric slowly opened the door, giving the old man enough space to slide through sideways, and following directly behind him was four boxes loaded onto a push cart. Assuming those are all the files we needed in order to start our investigation, I was still questioning if those boxes were filled with files or bombs. I mean, he's old enough not to care if he dies or not, so being careful is my first priority.

Eric checked each box and cleared the old man stating he didn't have a bomb strapped to his chest. What a relief, I can finally breathe. He started giving us the rundown on who to look at first and the reasoning behind it. Hours and hours of briefing, we decided to order something to eat so we can re-energize ourselves for the next round information that we were cramming to learn. After we get all of the knowledge we can hold, we will head out to check our mark.
