“That was fast,” Bobby said, and we got back in the car.
“Yeah. Now we gotta do this the hard way,” I said and reached for the pump in the backseat. Bobby started the car and we went after them.
“Looks like they’re heading for The Spot,” Bobby said. It was the after-hours spot that Rocky ran. “You ready?”
“Let’s do it,” I said, and Bobby sped up as I rolled down my window and readied the pump.
“Hold it steady,” I said and leaned out the window with the pump. I took aim at the back tire and fired. My first shot hit the bumper, but my second shot hit the tire and sent the Bonneville into a spin. I fired again just because and their car slammed into the cars that were parked along the street.
Bobby brought the car to a screeching halt and we jumped out. While he covered Rocky and Jesse, who were still shaken up in the car, I stepped to the rear of the Bonneville and blew the lock off the trunk. I grabbed the bag with the money and backed my way to the car.
As Bobby made his way to the car, the passenger door opened. Jesse got out and raised his weapon, but he took one from the pump before he got a shot off.
We got back in the car and Bobby drove us away from there. It wasn’t simple, but since it wasn’t our first time doing something like that, it was easy.
“Where you goin’ now?” I asked Bobby as he drove.
“Andre’s, why?”
“Let’s roll by Lamar’s first,” I said and opened the bag.
“Why?” he asked, and I looked at him like he was Boo-Boo the Fool until he got it.
He smiled and shook his head once he got it. “You a greedy mutha fucka.”
“Not greedy, just thorough,” I said, and Bobby drove to Lamar’s apartment. When we got there, he parked down the block from the building; we went inside and rode up in the elevator.
“So, what’s the plan? You just gonna knock on the door and ask them to give you the dope?”
“Something like that,” I said as we got off the elevator and I put my silencer on my gun. Bobby looked at me, shook his head, and then he put his silencer on his gun just as we reached the apartment. I knocked on the door.
“Who that?” I heard Marlo yell.
“Mike Black and Bobby Ray.”
“Fuck is you doing?” Bobby asked in a whisper.
I put my finger over my lips. “Shhh.”
It took a moment, but he finally cracked open the door.
“What up, Black?” Marlo asked with the chain still on the door.
“Andre sent me to make sure that you got taken care of.”
“Okay.”
“Ain’t you gonna let me in, Marlo?”
“Yeah, yeah, Black. Hold up a second,” he said and took the chain off the door.
“Thank you,” I said, and Bobby and I walked in the apartment. Lamar looked surprised to see us and I couldn’t blame him. I mean like, there they are with the keys they just bought on the table, and here we come. He had to know that this couldn’t be good.
“What up, Black?”
“Andre sent us to make sure that you got taken care of,” I said, put my hand in my coat pocket and my finger on the trigger.
“You tell Andre it’s all good. And thank him for lettin’ us step up to the plate.”
